COOKIED
A hacker has come to cohabit my flat
controlling whatever I do
Regrettably too and on top of all that
wherever I go it comes too
Since it arrived and infected my thinking
my life has been truly debased
to where I’ve practically doubled my drinking
and know that to fight is a waste
My cutlery crockery bric-a-brac tools
are constantly in disarray
I seem to be one of the world’s greatest fools
for my gear-shift shifts the wrong way
When I shop and pick out the item my shock
which can only confound belief
is to find once again that they’re out of stock
Does The Hacker want to play Thief?
Why are these creatures so brutally greedy
to seek out their pitiful prey?
Or is it the drowning cry of the needy
and hopelessness losing its way?

About this poem:
Please add a line. Let it take the poem forwards. Allow it to be as open as possible for the next line that follows. You can add more than one line, but no consecutive additions.Let's see where it leads.
Let's try for about 2/3 weeks worth.
I'll compile and publish it on here at the end of that time.
If I Was Your Man
If I was your man
I would help you stand
I would hold you up and pull you out your sinking sands
And I know its hard for you to trust a man
But if I'm anyone, I'm the one you truly can
I know you got your walls
And girl, I understand
You take em all down, let yourself fall
Get your heart broke all over again
Don't take em down for me
Cause I want to break em
I wanna prove to you I'm not the bricks that made them
I'd be your best friend
A shoulder you could cry on
I'd be there til the end
My heart you could rely on
I'd never let you down
Cause I am not a clown
In my kingdom I'm a peasant
And you're the one who wears the crown
If I was your man
You'd never have to feel alone
You'd never have to worry that I had some other women on the phone
Yeah I've made some mistakes
You live and you learn
I've always felt that every fallen leaf deserved another turn
And it was you that flipped me over
You're my saving grace
In a deck that's full of jokers
I could be your winning ace
I'd be your best friend
A shoulder you could cry on
I'd be there til the end
My heart you could rely on
I'd never let you down
Cause I am not a clown
In my kingdom I'm a peasant
And you're the one who wears the crown
I would help you stand
I would hold you up and pull you out your sinking sands
And I know its hard for you to trust a man
But if I'm anyone, I'm the one you truly can
I know you got your walls
And girl, I understand
You take em all down, let yourself fall
Get your heart broke all over again
Don't take em down for me
Cause I want to break em
I wanna prove to you I'm not the bricks that made them
I'd be your best friend
A shoulder you could cry on
I'd be there til the end
My heart you could rely on

In my kingdom I'm a peasant
And you're the one who wears the crown

And it was you that flipped me over
You're my saving grace

NEVER SET ME FREE
Wanna put my arms around you
Gathering you in
Till I can feel your heartbeat
Pressed against my skin
I will draw you even closer
Never letting go,
So forever feel me holding
My arms around your soul.

I can hear you now
I can see you smile (Lighting up the darkness)
I can feel you oh so close to me (so close, oh so close yeah)

DOWN LIFE'S ROAD
Whistle as you wander down life's road,
Will you become an eagle or a toad?
Cause you don't know what each new day will bring,
So play and prance and laugh and dance and sing,
Trouble as you wander down life's road,
You weaken underneath the heavy load,
And you don't know exactly what to do,
Fight with all your might crash on through,
Steady now you wander down life's road,
You are becoming what you've always known,
And now you know what wisened days will bring,
Reach out to grab hold of the Brass Ring,
Cautious strides with purpose down life's road,
Thankful that your story can now be told,
Cause now you know what each new day will bring,
So pray and praise and let those Churchbells ring.

About this poem:
In our lives we will make billions of decisions, thousands every day. Each has the potential to forever change our lives. So be wise as Solomon, don't let things get you down, and enjoy the journey Down Life's Road.CURRENT!
It's buzzing all around us,
In a never-ending stream,
Electronically digitized transmissions,
And blinding fiber optic beams,
Messages, emails, texts,
TV and the like,
Radio, cellphones, computers,
Microwave saturation blight,
Bouncing off satellites,
Marauding thru outer space,
And it all passes thru us,
On it's highly charged race,
Technology is wondrous,
But what's the real cost?
I'm afraid one day soon,
Our brains won't be the boss,
Worship.......
the CURRENT.

About this poem:
Most poems I title after they're written. But I've carried this title, and idea, around for days not receiving the words to express it.
Skin wear
I've got my heart over my skin
Exposed.. Ready for the viewing..
Like a tattoo, like an emblem,
Like a statement or an anthem..
I've got my heart over my skin
Offered to the sun and the wind
To the cold, the frost and rain
Up to scratches and the pain...
I've got my heart over my skin
My love, my soul, all my feelings
My every note, the words I sing
Engraved along my rugged skin...
I've got my heart over my skin
For it's too big to stay within
And it's easier to make it sing
When every beat is shivering...
I've got my heart over my skin
Warm, fiery little thing
Pulsing, ticking like a bomb
At all moment, every second...
I wear my heart over my skin
Open, exposed, weak and fragile
But protected by a shield
Made of your smile...

About this poem:
In England, they talk about having your heart on your sleeve... in France we talk about having your heart on the edge of your skin.. à fleur de peau... which is kind of difficult to translate... on the edge doesn't give credit to it.. but the idea is there.. just underneath the surface..I say I wear my heart on my skin.. kinda combination of both languages I guess...
Anyway... I like the text.. I made a nice blues out of it!
Tellin” Things No One Else Should Know
'Tellin' Things No One Else Should Know'
author: guitarpoet99
I can tell you things no else should know
There's something in your smile
I've never seen before
Let's take a guitar strum
To our next harmony
Where a good friend
Is all a hurtin' heart needs
Chorus
It ain't a matter of thinkin' the heart can't change
There's no fool here falling behind a second time
If the days seem too lonely and a hand needs company
You can tell me things no else should know
An angel's voice to my ear tells me you're near
In her melody she sings of answered prayers now here
Telling you and me things no one else should know
Yes, you can tell me things no one else should know
Chorus
It ain’t a matter of thinkin’ the heart can’t change
There’s no fool here falling behind a second time
If the days seem too lonley and the hand needs company
You can tell me things no one else should know
Yes, you can tell me things no one else should know

About this poem:
This is actually lyrics for a song I wrote for a female friend going through a tough time. Begins with -I can tell you things...... and then- You can tell me things... A symbolizing of an open communication of the heart between friendsWhat is Haunting Me?
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear..... what is haunting me?
The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend
Something crawls down my spine... as old as wicked sin
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Like Dracula's cloak... a silence floats... Crawling in the black night air
Mystic rush from my lips.... what is haunting me?
My hand stretched out to test the fear... This should I dare?
Deepest fog clutch my senses.... Such a strange nightly air
The night time is calling..... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Each illusion spinning round.... sounds inside sounds
Spinning on for--e---ver mooore
Hallucinations have their place..... not where to haunt the mind
This darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear what is haunting me?
The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend
Something crawls down my spine.... as old as wicked sin
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?
Darkness breath to my ear..... what is haunting me?
The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend
Something crawls down my spine... as old as wicked sin
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Like Dracula's cloak... a silence floats... Crawling in the black night air
Mystic rush from my lips.... what is haunting me?
My hand stretched out to test the fear... This should I dare?
Deepest fog clutch my senses.... Such a strange nightly air
The night time is calling..... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Each illusion spinning round.... sounds inside sounds
Spinning on for--e---ver mooore
Hallucinations have their place..... not where to haunt the mind
This darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear what is haunting me?
The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend
Something crawls down my spine.... as old as wicked sin
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees
Darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?

About this poem:
What may haunt us inside or outside of ourselves? This is one that just ‘came to me’- you know, the muse came to visit for a while. The setting is ‘walking through the spooky ole woods alone’ but I think there’s more to the story. What do you think? And this also evolved to become a song.My Lady’s Pink Blues
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
I want to be your animal, baby
Bite your lips Kiss your curves Make you soar
I want to be your animal, baby
Sigh a thigh My oh my, Push on deeply more
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
Twisted moves and magic hands
Takes a body on up high
Twisted moves and magic hands
Pulls out a moan in a silent sigh
Twisted moves and magic hands
Pushes on delights to tumble and fly
Twisted moves and magic hands
Such moan and sigh, My oh my, My oh my
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
How slow and low we wanna go
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Some wet spice for smooth tight delight
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Stones and slow blues tempo my stereo
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Slippery warm slide into a bliss kiss we go
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
I want to be your animal, baby
Bite your lip Kiss your curves Make you soar
I want to be your animal, baby
Sigh a thigh My oh my, Push on deeply more
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
I want to be your animal, baby
Bite your lips Kiss your curves Make you soar
I want to be your animal, baby
Sigh a thigh My oh my, Push on deeply more
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
Twisted moves and magic hands
Takes a body on up high
Twisted moves and magic hands
Pulls out a moan in a silent sigh
Twisted moves and magic hands
Pushes on delights to tumble and fly
Twisted moves and magic hands
Such moan and sigh, My oh my, My oh my
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
How slow and low we wanna go
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Some wet spice for smooth tight delight
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Stones and slow blues tempo my stereo
Slip and slide in a sweet hot ride
Slippery warm slide into a bliss kiss we go
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
I want to be your animal, baby
Bite your lip Kiss your curves Make you soar
I want to be your animal, baby
Sigh a thigh My oh my, Push on deeply more
I want to be your animal, baby
Make me growl Make me purr Make me roar
