Touch my rage,
Taste a cloud,
Touch a memory:
Autumn leaves cling to barren limbs:
Knowledge fondly remembers ignorance,
Ignorance aches longingly for knowledge --

Furious
by Bennet Roper
feel it burn your fingers.
Taste the heat billowing off my feelings
towards you.
Feel remorse blistering your skin. Enraged
flames spin out;
enveloping all surroundings.
Smoke chokes off opposition.
There is no relief
from passion until it burns itself
out.
Relish
by Margaret Pope
stirring in sapphire sky.
Savor its airy softness,
floating with ease, over lush shrubbery.
Savor its velvet quality as it
wanders over wormy lips.
Nibble fluffy, ivory edges,
and indulge in a pleasant delight.
Never Forgotten
by Abbey Holsman
live a day in the past.
Hugging my dead uncle,
plastic guitar and rock music
booms in memory's ears.
Guitar Hero seems like ages ago.
Holding that controller tight; playing
the same song. On my downstairs couch, I hear
your loud laugh, see your dry fingers
moving fast. What is no longer here.
lives deep in my mind:
an everlasting memory; present, tangible.
Blank Pages
by Bennet Roper
bleached to pale dead pages, blank and empty,
desolate in frigid wind. Snow
is on the way, falling white and bare, untouched
by ink and graphite on frosty ground.
Fall reads cool and vacant, like empty
parchment.
Oblivious
by Mary Parker
caressing fading memories of
child-like imaginings in place of facts,
like a lonely lover
staring at a crinkled photograph.
Knowing begs for a return of dis-remembrance,
disliking lack of wonder in life,
but sabotages itself; something learned
cannot be completely forgotten.
Ê
answers for its endless questions --
even as with suicidal ease,
it rapidly spins tales explaining
the hows and whys
of an inexplicable world. Slowly,
unknowingly, ignorance strangles knowledge:
a badger backed into a corner, with no options remaining.
One never survives alongside the other.
