Thrushold
The chick emerged at night
And left the shell behind
Caressed a nested warmth
Divined a sense of touch
A churning in the stomach
Whimpered out a chirping
Restless others bickered back
The rustling breezes blew
With such a sound device
The world was more defined
A leafy filter skewed the sun
In gradual delight,
The Chick, "What has begun?"
"Oh, you've never seen
This universal gift:
The gentle shade of green."
I write poems to pass the time, and sometimes it turns out well. Updates most weeks, usually on Tuesday. 2011 was a year for narrative works, generally using standard poetic tools. 2012 will be focused on homophonic and backwards/forwards pieces.

Triggered Happy
i'm back! blank verse. wrang, it turns out, it an incorrect past-tense conjugation of the verb "wring." luckily, i'm ok with that. hopefully you are too.
Triggered Happy
The shot wrang out
Liquid minutes
Bogging down the paths
The brains stormed
The sound of sunder
Shady lightening
The clouds with silver
Lining up to ogle
Giddy hails in vocal chords
Tattooed upon the lips
Now flapping of the fray
What joy has come of this.
The salvoed shots have struck
The shock has gone astray
Triggered Happy
The shot wrang out
Liquid minutes
Bogging down the paths
The brains stormed
The sound of sunder
Shady lightening
The clouds with silver
Lining up to ogle
Giddy hails in vocal chords
Tattooed upon the lips
Now flapping of the fray
What joy has come of this.
The salvoed shots have struck
The shock has gone astray
