Poems - Web Creatures

Web Creatures

by Phoebe

Phantoms in the mind gather....
Appear, on cue, shapeless blurs, fade to grey.
Shadows prance and dance, hugging, hurting
Silhouettes flirting, pheromones spurting
Feral, eyes wide, sleep deprived, behind masks hide..
Seeking consolation, wanting absolution

Phantoms in the mind meet, greet
Bitter bigots, sweet innocents.... find a seat
Take up residence; laugh, weep, feel the heat!
Gimmicky mimics rhyme in time, fashioning passion...
Colourful word birds soar and caw, sometimes claw
Heaven huggers teach and preach, occasionally screech
Rabid radicals fight, bite, day and night..
Treading the threads, bouncing the boards..
Departing, cavorting web junkies snorting

Phantoms in the mind, party animals at play,
Suspicious, malicious, vindictive, selective,
Reclusive, abusive, flirtatious, outrageous
Loud, proud, wired, tired, minds fried, hopes denied

Phantom minds travelling on phantom highways,
pay their due - cruise on through…

~Phoebe~

I cannot believe I got a 2 star for this poem...oh I'm so grateful, so ecstatic, so overwhelmed with joy if I knew who you were I'd kiss your arse with my rugby spike boots... Laughing

Maybe, the phantoms had just two to spare. Sad

The emotions come through, wonderfully.
a hundred tens, if it's possible..
lots of love, dear Phoebe!

sweet Phoebe......this is a masterpiece of rap.....indepth and detailed look at onliners,bloggers and poets from the eye of abrilliant writer and i f" two stars " had any intelligence they would have left a comment but seeing none we have to assume it is a child with a computer...shit happens...often at bad times like when you are branching off into new rhelms of literature and looking for meaningful critique.....excellent work here you continue to amaze us all with maybe the occaisional juvenile exception... Very Happy

xoxoxo ten stars for the piece and a heart for the new genre of poetry you so easily mastered

some creatures that live in webs bite and try to suck the life out of you...some try to protect you - spider man and bat hound.
