Cause and Effect We are the heartbreakers and the heartbroken We know the pain and affliction of such cause and effect a downward spiral into hell are we simply the tools of avenging angels? hell hath no fury like a woman and heaven know the pain of evey man beating constantly downward By Holly |

Way Past Closing Time The band breaks down, The van pulls away, The last call ladies go On to do things they Won't remember to men Who'll never call. The lights have come up, The last butt is ash, The janitor has danced The last dance Round the floor with his mop and bucket. My watch says 4 am, My face says 5 o'clock, Out in the street, snow Has filled your tracks So I guess there's no trace of you to cheat reality. By Allen |

Fashion Can I ever matter to what it is that matters release my fear and do it right when sex and porn are all that can make a man feel like a man it’s like I’m the geek with acne and a pocket protector sitting in the corner at the high school dance wondering what she feels like under that skirt. By Mike |

Are you an angel that has lost her wings? Earthbound and wanton, is that what you are? Are you stranded here with the rest of us “beings”? How could one so lovely be so bound to this plane? I know you’re having fun here; but doesn’t heaven await, With celebration planned upon your return? Tell me, because I wonder if I am close to the truth I just have to know because it’s tearing me up inside. Say it to me in a whisper, I promise I won’t tell a soul What brings you to us? Is heaven overcrowded or is there something we shouldn’t know? Come out with it gorgeous, I swear I won’t kiss and tell. But I must know the reason why There is such beauty in this place It can’t just be for the mere worship of mortal men. By Corey |

Scotch Tape I remember the licking Of sweat The taste of you spent, Easy Lying curled beside Me Sticky Wishing our love to be more adhesive. By Byron More Poems |
