Magnetic Poetry fragments

Like everyone else, I've jumped on the popular magnetic poetry bandwagon. I recently bought the first set and have spread the words upon my cubicle wall at work. From this chaos of print, a few memorable phrases have emerged which I'll probably use in poems later:

Note: I've already massaged some of these so don't be surprised to find words that aren't in the kit...



"Honey will you rip out the light"  -AB


"urge to swim in cool peach juice" -AB


"blue ugly butt ache" -AB


"Leaving the mother road.  Oh, these bitter moments." -AF


"This pounding head.  Surely delirious love produces death."  -AF


"Trudging love drunk vision screams for time together
  not this repulsive TV void."  -AF


"My sweet misty spring garden
    crys from behind the lake
 dreamy chants of some forest moon
    whispers etenitys music"  -AF


"fluff worship shining through elaborate shadows" -AF


        "enormous sea
    powerful gift of life
 milk from goddesses breast
            ...
    petals on white skin" -AF


"I may go there some day
  like they say we all do
 but I cannot read about death
  now is not the time to glimpse eternity

 I may go there some day
 but I cannot read about death
  Why look through that box now?

 I may go there some day
 but I cannot read about death
  there is no need for familiarity yet

 I may go there some day
 but I cannot read about death
  maybe death won't visit strangers"

 I may go there some day
  like they said I would
 but I didn't read about death
  so I can't recognize it now." -AF


"beauty floods in like summer
 though I must sleep soon" -AF

"picture the delicate sun
  pounded by the winter wind
    delirious and weak" -AF
