EBONY CARPETS

WRITTEN BY TWINDADDY AND HASTYWORDS In the distance there are angry storms Approaching slow and steady, raging They are rolling out plush ebony carpets Upon a bright and sunny sky, infecting   Negative forces and energies build, waiting Dark promises of a looming deluge, raining Irritabilities doing their best to block light The sun’s piercing…

THE STREAM

Written by Arthur Browne and HastyWords   Hands clasped tight we run clumsily towards the stream, our elated laughter carrying loudly through the trees on the softest breeze.

DESTINY CRASHES

WRITTEN BY RICHARD ANKERS AND HASTYWORDS ♥ Broken glass clung In pieces to his hair Desperation pulled At his lungs looking For a breath of air   Sludgy water fogging And unable to see He struggled to the Surface clawing up From dark infinity   Their screams Trace his memory Etching acoustic Tracks on his…

SKIPPING STONES

WRITTEN BY IAMKIITAN AND HASTYWORDS ◊◊ Fluid yellow tinted strokes Color sunbeams on time They fade into a distance As a rotating globe defines   There and then I sat Looking into the skies Lost in the painful memory of it all Where do I begin?   Memories skip their stones Over shallow muddy waters…

SHROUDS AND CLOAKS

Beautiful words always spill effortlessly from this poet.  I am always challenged writing with him.  Visit him and enjoy his immense connection with nature.  Written by SeanBidd and HastyWords   Can you feel her breath beneath the city lights, Out to walk the streets beyond the mile limits, To touch her scent scattered within a…
