Ode on a Grecian Formula
Oh sacred libation of Narcissian (sp?) splendor, From thee I reattain, through unpretentious market vendor, Ebon locks once lost, that now renewed, quickly reengender, And mend penis-vital connections with youth, once hindered. The empowering single application of sanctified unction More than libido-enhancing Viagra restores function. The stygian night of repellent,…
S.L. Pierrotti
I have done technical writing and grant writing off and on through the years and published a couple of nonfiction pieces in minor publications. Although I truly love great literature, I only write poetry for fun, more for the love of playing with words than out of any desire (or…
Ron Truman
DEDICATION 1 You Judges! You are judging , are you not, Those poems with which your inbox daily swells? The gods of online contests, you have got Control of literary heavens and hells. Yet some pre-teen, with angsty love besot, Who's rhyming's even worse than how he spells, May blaspheme…
The Craven
Once upon an early morning, fantasizing til I'm horny Over many disembodied women never touching me before, Woke up feeling mighty funky, stimulated, stiff and spunky, Had the urge to spank the monkey, dreaming of a faceless whore From a dirty movie I had rented nights before — a priceless…
Chris Kuehn
Chris Kuehn resides, writes and teaches in Wisconsin. She won recent recognition for her 2003 feature-length family movie script Toby Noble's School Project in other contests. Chris writes, “I've wanted to attract a larger audience for my writing although this isn't exactly what I had in mind! But, it's no…
An Ode to Buns
Buns are rosy, buns are round, Some spurt gas without a sound; And other buns, without a care, Blow methane with a trumpet blare. Some buns are fountains of delight, Some buns bellow in the night! Some are wrinkled, old, and droopy, Some are fragrant, some are poopy. Pendulous are…
Callaghan Howard
Born in November of 1985, Callaghan Howard has been writing poetry since she was seven. Most of her work, however, takes a rather less farcical tone than that of “An Ode to Buns”, which began as a joke poem for her mother, whose zany sense of humor continues to make…
Untitled (“I want to cut a hole…”)
“Your poetry sparks the imagination and presents the reader with a fresh, unique perspective on life.” Letter from poetry.com to Rick Lupert regarding the following poem… UNTITLED I want to cut a hole in your butt cheek your left butt check and put my COQUE COQUE COQUE in there and…
A Crown of Sonnets
Monday —Old English 'day of the moon' from the Late Latin lunae dies As pewter hills consume the tired Sun and shoals of stars amass in shallow skies, perhaps the Moon considers what she's won; a shadow land which daylight floods with lies? At night, while trees recite their soft…
Phill Doran
I was born in England in 1956. For the last 30 years I have lived in Johannesburg, South Africa; I am married with three children and two grandchildren. I write poetry as I have no choice not to.
Nineteen-Sixty
I wasn't aware I lived a defining moment in history at Greensboro College, a comfortable girls' school; morning chapel required on Tuesdays, dinner served at tables of eight. On Sundays I wore skin toned nylon stockings and lipstick; rode a bus to the church of my choice where Jesus' portrait…
To Misunderstand Mariachi Music
The first mistake is to try to understand. If you must, remember first the land and then the people. Breathe the dryness of its sand. A top-soil of rock and the stingy wisp of volcanic earth declare why Tlaloc, the rain god, is supreme: cough from the dust of the…
Louis Giron
I am a neurologist by day; and a poet at any other time, usually the smallest hours of the night. In San Antonio, I grew up on Bach, Chopin, Beethoven and Mozart—as well as on Lara, Lecuona, Ponce and Granados. But Mariachi music readily came out at parties and fiesta.…
Untitled (“My younger days…”)
My younger days were never dull, we always had a laugh… some things were embarrassing and some were simply daft.. the worst thing I can think of, without a lot more thought, was when we tried to bunk a train and three of us got caught.. the station was deserted,…
