MOONLIGHT MUSES' POEMS AND SCORES #3

Lap 19
Round 7
Insect

Insect

From the wall, silent,
sticky feet clinging
like a robotic ninja
to peeling paint.
Your endless eyes
see all, if only your brain
were larger, perhaps
you'd know all, too.

Lap 19
ROUND 8 ACROSTIC:

My little buddy, my
obnoxious pup
oh, no longer a pup, he's 2
sweetly barks a light bark
enlightening me, he has to pee.

Lap 19
Round 9

Superhero OR mythological being OR movie star

You were nothing
but the one who
always failed to
hold me up,

the superman,
without the super..

you were just a man..

Dad.

Lap 19
Round 10
Cooking

I'm whipping up waves of verse
Popping it in the oven,
too bad it always comes out
half baked.

Lap 19
Round 11
Nature

I watched you sway in a slow ballad,
your sisters beside you like swans
who's necks coiled into rhythm,
Autumn's choreography.

Lap 19
ROUND 12
7 Lines

I've once gathered the impression
that you'd prefer to gnaw on peppers
than smell the sweet budding blooms -
never will I understand how the desire
of something dark and broody
will be more appealing than sweetness
How that shows your inner self.

Lap 19
Round 13

Magic..

he said
our love missed magic..

so I took my
belongings

and,
dissapeared.

Lap 20
Round 1
Grandmother

Omi

Oh, if I could paint your feathers
my mind would never capture your
indestructable power of will.

Lap 20

ROUND 2: 17 Syllables

My twitching eye
shows signs of stress
could this marathon
be killing me?

Lap 20
Round 3
aabab

Summer has appeared a bright blaze,
mini skirts and fluro shirts are the new phase,
gulping sprite in a teenage rush,
for smoking weed is the best of ways
to impress your crush and make them blush.

Lap 20
Round 4

Free

I like it,
the way its called a "free"
yet my thoughts struggle enormously
to come up with an effortless thought.

Lap 20
ROUND 5 - SQUIRREL

I once witnessed
a squirrel
run away with a golf ball
that I hit, obviously terribly.
I chucked my club at the tree
and my golf ball was returned -
two bite marks now symbolize
how terrible I am
at clubbed sports.

Lap 20
Round 6
Wild card (acrostic)

This morning the
Endless weight of
All I have
To do is crushing
Against my
Soft head...
Tools to save me
Ere I
Sag beneath
Growing pressures?
Oh
Obviously, some
Delicious tea.

Lap 20
Round 7
Insect

Dear Mr Spider,

Your legs looked like they squealed
as they gave way and bent into the shape
of tiny triangles. I had never thought
of death before, the way mother
picked you up and tossed you through
the window made me wonder if
all were forgotten too easily.

Lap 20

ROUND 8 ACROSTIC:

How do you always
envelop my mind
like liquid bursting over
lava caves?

Lap 20
Round 9
Movie Star

I never realized
the ironic display
his eyebrows made
when pulling a face...
The facial curls that
match your head
will only exacerbate
my midnight fantasies
from now on.

Lap 20
Round 10

Cooking

I always look forward
to tomatos and peppers,
the way I toss them
in the heat..

as they consume and cook..
I consume thoughts..

I often find myself,
in pieces of onions..
not because they,

burn my eyes,
but because they
allow me to let out..
Tears I didn't even knew I had

Lap 20
ROUND 11:
Nature

Beautiful sunrise
brings me much inspiration
for my poetry.

Lap 20
Round 12
Seven Lines

A cluttered mess
of clothes scattered everywhere,
and make-up dusting everything in sight -
seems as though a earthquake shook
my room and left it in a tizzy,
now I don't know where to begin,
but you always have to start somewhere.

Lap 20
Round 13
Magic

Maybe there's a trick
to your wink and
swerve...
the magical ways you
move that compell me to
hang to your every word.

Lap 21
Round 1
Grandmothers

She was a tiny
frail little pixie,
with the perfect shade
of beautiful gray hair -
her itsy bitsy little chuckle
was enough to make
even the toughest man smile.

Lap 21
Round 2
Syllables

Syllable counting is the worst
thing you could have come
up with abby.

Lap 21
Round 3
Aabab

I can't think of anything to rhyme so
desperately I pull out thesauruses, OH
I just lost all my prewritten poems to the site
There's someone after me down below...
Seriously, Abby. This is so not alright.

Lap 21
ROUND 4 - FREE

How do you determine
the reality of freedom?

Is it the choices you make
willingly, without another's influence
or the way you decide
to live your life
free of the shackles from others?

Lap 21
Round 5
Squirrel

You'll often kind them
climbing up trees like skyscrapers,
or running aimlessly like a fire
lit underneath their tail -
chipping away at acorns
cradled in their paws.

Lap 21
Round 6
Wild card
(7 lines)

I went to the club last night
saw this girl,man she was fine
I kissed her cheek,offered her wine
held her hand as if she was mine
but she was stupid,she wasn't sage
pretty and slutty
and underage

Lap 21
ROUND 7 INSECT

I once pondered
how a ladybug
infested house
doesn't describe the perfect
scene of murder.

Lap 21
Round 8
Acrostic

Maybe I'm a mad hatter?
Every now and then I get the urge to
Lose myself within' a rainforest.

Lap 21
Round 9

Movie star

When I see you,
on tv..

my heart melts
although I know
it is a script..

you make it look so natural..

its only when,
you hold michelle between your arms

that I too wish,
you were
my uncle Jesse

(full house)

.

Lap 21
ROUND 10
Cooking

It's early afternoon
and you can find me
peeling potatoes, carrots
and mincing garlic,
hearing the whur of appliances
in the background
and a subtle song bubbling
off my lips.

Lap 21
Round 11
Nature

I hear birds chirping,
faster than I can type.
Oh, if I could type as fast
as they could chirp,
I would've finished these
poems ages
ago.

Round 21
Round 12
Lines

Somewhere 'tween the silky shore
she strips herself of seal clothing -
wonders round the city streets
finding a man that would bloom
her heart with sea shells and
peel starfish from her
tiny rib cage.

Lap 21
Round 13
Magic

Seven layers of magic
makes for a delicious treat -
nuts tossed with coconut,
butterscotch and chocolate chips,
sprinkled over top a thin
graham cracker crust,
drizzled in sweet condensed milk -
simply magical.

Lap 22
Round 1
Grandmothers

The vast differences between grandmothers
made me realize there are two kinds of people -
one loving, nurturing, and warm
the other
careless, abandoning, and cold.
Their hugs felt different,
though I was surprised I ever was held
by grandmother number two -
her touch was more a rough pat on the back
as though the near sight of you
would give her a disease.
Grandmother number one
held you like a baby cherub
and pinched your cheeks,
how annoying that was
until she wasn't around to do it anymore.

.

Lap 22
Round 2
17 Syllables

Those twists and turns
inside your head have been
dying to crush us all day.

Lap 22
Round 3
Rhyme

Gotta rhyme,
Got no time.
Maybe this will work?
This is not sublime.
Abby, you're a jerk.

Lap 22
Round 4
Free Verse

The leaves were star-shaped,
strung together in rainbow color,
illuminated against a hazy backdrop
as fuzzy as an orange -
almost as if they were a sky
of their own of which I loved to
tiptoe upon as I dreamed.

Lap 22
Round 5
Squirrels

She once asked me if
squirrels were eating the earth,
and I pondered for moments before
realizing she was painting
acorns with blue and green and
stringing them from her ceiling
for she wanted to see the
world before her eyes and
asked if I too would
travell with her -

I have always admired
this childs mind.
