Challenge: The Perfect Ten (v2.0)

[Unbridled_Passion]

the love of my life
brings poetry to my soul

 

[vampiredust]

Clouds concoct
rain as wagers
for poker games

 

[clutching_calliope]

Palpitations

My heart is a lardy cheeseball
saturated in peanut oil.

 

[RhymeFairy]

the tide turned while I slept
secret pleasures
slipped out.

 

[vampiredust]

houses burn
as invisible arsonists
practice pagan
rites

 

[EriAliSaa]

A wandering frisky finger
surrealistically brings elation
as dawn breaks.

 

[vampiredust]

moon waltzes
with your spirit
under a song
of night

 

[Tzara]

Sorry

Wires run quick charges
from brain to tongue.

Injure some.

 

[Tzara]

I am as formal as a sieve. I sift pronouncements.

 

[sajaxom]

Rose

Your pedals
On my lips
Sensuous
My woman
My rose

 

[Tzara]

Love half-timbered, where daub and wattle
make walls, not rattle.

 

[clutching_calliope]

The battery charger
left on overnight

still did no good.

 

[RhymeFairy]

candy stripped
lic-o-rice. twine,
n'twiddle with
fiddl-ing fruit ring
rocks.

 

[vampiredust]

Squeegee

Wipe, squeeze, rinse
and repeat

 

[vampiredust]

she sharpens her teeth
with stones,

I prefer whiskey

 

[vampiredust]

clams open,
fish wriggle in wicker
ribs

 

[clutching_calliope]

Zippity do dah
was defintely
not my
kind of day.

 

[vampiredust]

This is what I dream about sometimes

Flies do the fandango
on a 9.15 train
to Albuquerque

 

[clutching_calliope]

Whoops.

I
just slipped
into
crazy love

with Neo's left shoulder.

 

[clutching_calliope]

Nice While It Lasted

And then just like that
it is simply (whoosh....)

vanished

 

[vampiredust]

Shadows hang on trees,
falling with a crashbangwallop

 

[vampiredust]

Waves flex,
cupping the air
to catch
sailboats skimming
surface.

 

[vampiredust]

Koi

submarines swirl,
a cat's paw the signal
to go deeper

 

[vampiredust]

Oil Spill

The ocean's
lipstick

 

[clutching_calliope]

and again
there's the light,
the day,
sometimes even you.
