Stevie - self love is not a crime. It's sex with someone who won't empty your bank a/c behind your back, let alone run off to clubs when there's pots to be washed etc. etc.
Quoted from Rik Mayall in 'Bottom'
Self gratification? I'm quite capable of that on my own thankyou!
Start the car! Now!
And after McCornetto's fine contribution I shall retrieve my poetry pen and get my coat...

I very curious if anyone really "got" my last poem. How about if today's theme is something more gothic, like ghosts?
I'm not sure Michael, but did you take the letters in "self deceit" and keep reorganizing them?
At first I thought it was an anagram, but that's the way it seems to me. And isn't that what we do when we self deceive? We perform these calculations, trying to make it feel right for ourselves. Very deceptive!

HAUNTED by Cindy L. Keller Shadows sway betwixt silvery veils stretching vapors of opaque light. Still oak trees hold no tales. Secrets are hushed by night. Marshy green of nethermost glade... Spirits maundering cries... Echoes reach out to darkness... Fade. Footprints settle from sight. Fathom you must - secluded endeavor. Serpents guard. Curiosity laid. Be prepared to stay forever when entering nethermost glade. Hear the howl of the banshee's wail. Trembling leaves of green subside, giving way to spirit's sail... The summoning forces ride.
Excellent work Cindy!!!
Stop it now stop it! Or you'll have me imagining these ghosts and monsters running around in The Thief game. Oops, I already did...
But it's getting worse! Michael, this is your fault.

A Lover's Ghost He's a fascinating force When you strip him off his bones Unbounded Grateful and regretful both This energetic ghost of a man I love it when he steps into my space I feel his willful desire I will spend eternity with him Ghosts we will be Emptying ourselves of old pain Thrilling ourselves on the wind Above the water Soaring as birds Until we sit down to dream again And again we will come together Bound incarnate in the seeds And meet to plan a meeting The ghost of our plans The plan of our ghosts Upon us in favor Upon the morning and evening And through the certainty of death again To go alone And to come back To this energetic ghost of a man His desire, waiting upon my bed Sandra E.

Sandra, Fine work. Between you and McCornetto (amongst others) I now see the bar is extremely high round here. I need a Grademan style bar to compete. Excellent work. Extremely entertaining and evocative. Keep it up. Good night. R

Ghost. Interrupts my slumber, Fondles with my hunger, All in my head? Fuck you, sleep in my bed. The psychologists come and dine, Tell me it's all in my mind, "I see things" I scream, They shake their heads, call me obscene. Ghosts constantly surround me, I have such a strong desire to be free They cling like bugs and honey, Please help me, I'll give you all my money. Anything to rid this torture, I wish they were as hard as mortar. So I could shoot them myself, And then, finally, maybe, regain my full health.

Ok. I had a really long involved day today and couldn't write a serious sort of poem. I got a laugh out of this one but it is probably a bit politically incorrect - so I'll apologise in advance if I'm offending anyone and post it anyway. The Casper Rap Casper say boo but you did know he was friendly, but had three bad bros they treated him nasty he was their bitch his good friend Wende she was a witch. he say boo. Casper he say Boo. Casper. He liked to hang In a haunted house he scared some people even scared a mouse He wasn’t no gansta He wanted a friend And like most white boys He had a happy end. He say boo Casper C’mon say boo Casper

You must work well when you've had a hard day at work, Michael because I really thought this one was good. And I too apologize, if I offend anyone by condoning the use of "white boy"

LOL
Microwaveable Instant Poem The thought is fast
And moves so swift
But to figure it out?
I can't catch the drift
I sit here blurry
Sipping dark brew
I'm lost in thought
Without a clue
If thought is instant
Then why can't I make
A microwave screenplay
Like a microwave cake?
Materialize things
With the blink of an eye
But that would be boring
If I don't have to try
I still like cooking
A slow cooking stew
And peeling potatoes
And sipping my brew
Whether brewed with hops
Or brewed with beans
I sip it slow
And dream the dream
I guess I love life
And all hidden fate
Because fast only means
You hurry up and wait
Sandra E.
