The Olive Theory
by Kate Coleman
I heard about this theory;
that in the perfect couple,
One will like olives, and the other will not.
One will always eat for the other.
I think that's why we never worked,
You proudly shouted your love for the salted fruit,
While I, meekly, passed mine to you.
You convinced that only you could possibly like them.
And I, well. I simply did not.
It wasn't until the end, the end of us;

For my girl
by The Hsenura
Not many adjectives,
Nor much sense,
I wish to write
For my girl, but
She doesn't like poetry.
To put it simple
Without thesaurus,
Her eyes, brows, nose,
Short hair and smile,
Together reminds one--

Men Are All Alike!
by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar
So much loving and caring
He appears in the lights
Of his honorable and civilized life
But acts otherwise
In the dead deserted nights.
In darkness of artificial glamor
He turns into ruthless rustic,
Utterly abusive and deadly scary
Brandishing his muscled power forcibly.

Revenge
by Frangipani Retrograde
Let's face it you're real bad at being good boy
Carried me over the broomstick and flew away that night
I've brought you back in virtual reality, an original copy
And I'm having a hard time acting naturally
I'll watch you grow smaller by the minute
When you realize you have one choice
You're living in an oxymoron
But I've got loyal opposition
And we're the living dead

Please lock the door
by Patricia R
Please dont forget to lock the door when you walk away
Dont forget to lock all of the locks
Please dont let me hold you here any longer, please I say .
Cause by the time I get to look your already, ghost up the blocks
I'm not trying to waste any more of your time today .
I know your times precious and I'm not trying to waste it away .
I know it's all on me and that you will be quick to say .
That this was my choice and I did not want you to stay .
Your right I didnt , and I even said it's probably best to go away .
I love you forever, till the end of time plus that thirteenth day .

Daphne holds the chase
by Hadia Sadiq
Daphne holds the chase
romeo, did you know that you love me
with such sincerity that it makes me sick?
so, will you love me still if i tell you that
my heart does not belong to you but belongs,
rather, to the fascist with his boot on my
neck? you kiss my neck like you are worshipping

Sonnet 51: Or, If You Give No Surety To Live
by Pijush Biswas
Or, if you give no surety to live
Or, today's dullness of lives you pour on
We, mere being hollow in speech must grieve
Unto the date comes we guaranteed by;
And tough-soul'd secrecy of death must groan
To it's unfulfillment who must we tie
Giving rather emphasis beautiful,
To have a laugh, or jeer upon you once
Here God may occupy throne of your rule
And side by side we, poor ones, will worship

second love
by Miki Vermeulen
It’s not even about missing you.
It’s about having to remember
how fast and sudden you switched up,
and how horrible it made me feel.
One day you flipped,
you were sad and miserable,
you didn’t even want to be around me.
I don’t know what I did because you never told me.
You left me so confused and alone

A Golfing Wife
by Dr. Robert Ippaso
As a non-golfing husband I revel at tales
Of sunshine filled days chasing small balls,
Some in the rough others in sand,
All these brave girls fighting nature's pitfalls.
I hear of the times the flock of wild ducks
Hindered a drive that was perfectly hit,
And what of those trees that magically moved
With a subsequent shout 'I just want to quit'.
