Three Word Wednesday words: blurred illegal match

Read where these simple words took others here.

Colliding Words

The lines are blurred in
your mind

because it is more
convenient to take the easy path
and your inner conscious and
convenience-fitting-in-genes
are bruising each other’s vision
in ongoing war….

in mine, this side is right,
my vision is clear

HARD OR NOT….

Illegal is illegal,
you chose to work here
and in this world,
your stride
needs to match the law

but in your other worlds,
the choice is yours,

I have no opinion
nor a need for one,
for that is only play.

3WW – Him, A Partial Reveal

3WW, Family, Photo, Poetry | Posted by MeeAugraphie
May 14 2008

Average – Neck – Scratch. Three simple words tossed at us by Bone for Three Word Wednesday. Though I have no time to read much this week, I could not resist writing, for as soon as I saw the word “neck” – the first line of the poem formed.

Him, A Partial Reveal


16.5 neck
above average height
(in the day)
large hands
big feet
inseam 30

actor, always on
(except when not)

dry witted
quick witted

moods worn for most to see
though some know not the signs

heart HUGE
hidden at times

while male bravado states its case

and loses.

Giver of self and heart.

I must only scratch the surface
for privacy means more to him than me….

Did I tell you I’m spoiled rotten?
(
Not materially — for anyone could do that.)

Comments unopened – just because. Have a joy filled day y’all. I’ll try to catch up on reading this weekend.

3WW – On Human Matters

3WW, Life balance, Poetry | Posted by MeeAugraphie
May 07 2008

Cautious – Human – Maybe: Three simple words leap out of Bone’s brain to bring wonder or complications and who knows what else to a writer’s mind. Check out other Three Word Wednesday thought streams here.

On Human Matters

When

Cautious by nature
coexists with
reckless by desire

and

years are controlled by the former,
scattered moments, by the latter

will she be judged by either,

or seen as merely human?

Maybe, it will depend by whom?

Maybe, after the fact, it won’t matter

at all?

On Dust and Kryptonite – 3WW

3WW, NaPoWriMo, Poetry | Posted by MeeAugraphie

Three Word Wednesday. Wonderful words, Bone. Thank you.

Empty – Highway – Ignored

Dust Storm

Empty highway, ignored
until man exercises muscle

Deep throated cars
declare it theirs

Air sliced by objects propels itself,
earth stands helpless in its path

Cracked layers disturbed
dust rises and falls.

Plants must wait for wind or rain
to cleanse their lifeline to the sun

Man communing merely shakes it off,
thinking himself the lucky one

And forgets his lifeline to oxygen
has been caked with dust as well.

I intended to stop after the first stanza, but I wrote the rest… I intended to stop after the first poem, but I wrote another… My fingers readied to accept another, but I declared a full stop, until tomorrow. I can stop. I can. I can. I think I can.

Once again: Empty – Highway – Ignored

Search For Kryptonite

Ignored by all
he closed
his door of dreams

The one he once thought
made of gold

Lead, it was,
and solid, through which
no glimmer could be seen

His nights had filled
with searches

Just one flaw
he sought, a pinhole
to allow dream’s entrance

And finding none, he stepped
onto an empty highway

And life stretched ahead,
for it was not his end
but his beginning

He searched life’s darkened skies
for Kryptonite’s luminescent glow
and scoured the seas below

He walked past fields of gold
and guns of lead and cold

And stumbled on
dream’s counterpart
and wrote his life his way

Empty memories erased and rewritten
Graphite and gum erasers became his friend

3WW – Word Power

3WW, NaPoWriMo, Poetry | Posted by MeeAugraphie
Apr 23 2008

Three Word Wednesday rocks! Look at the words Bone chose: Picture – Reflected – Stop. Are they not the coolest ever? OOPS, left our “stop”, too bad, I love it the way it is! And this one, I wrote it, and then inserted the next to the last stanza in pieces between the others. Guess you could say, I actually edited some….

Word Power

She found herself fascinated
with life reflected through words
(hers and theirs)

Each decision revealed
leaped from the page
replayed in her head
she fretted or rejoiced
as if her own

(Her mind became a scary place
as each decision begged to be retried)

Each emotion wafted
from the page
became hers
entwined in her own
within her heart

(Her heart stretched and sagged
as each stored emotion jockeyed for air time)

Each picture created
whether in technicolor,
black and white,
or faded vision,
burned into her soul

(Her soul’s canvas was at near capacity
of painted tattooed visions)

She found herself  fascinated
with life reflected through words
(hers and theirs)
… and told her
mind, heart, and soul,

“Deal with it!”
