This poem included the 12 random words (in blue) provided by the following twitter players:
@KathrynVercillo (putrid), @rmilana (Butterfly), @blusol (demonstrate), @purple_froggy (overdrawn), @shonie1966 (analyze), @filigreegirl (logic), @TrinaMb (Charlie Brown), @Zorlone (drunk), @babyfuzz (dodge), @Jemfyr (radiant), @or1gb1u3 (headphones)
@LangleyCornwell (Cataclysmic)

Sonic Mishap

You were supposed to only analyze
demonstrate these new headphones work
an overdrawn putrid feedback mishap
a cataclysmic butterfly effect
luck fit for Charlie Brown himself
as you reel back attempting to dodge
logic failing as radiant circuits pop
systems screaming as if drunk with power
a plume of smoke as all hisses in silence
how are you going to explain this mishap?

Curious Storefront

In a distant curious storefront
a haberdasher beckons invitingly
no items of noticeable usability found
nor confections of the finest sugar
opening with a simple slideshow ruse
fantasies to sustain every mortal soul
here minds wander on a daydreams pyre
and sanguine teenager titans gather
chasing comely Nereids in wicked games
dense loathsome serendipity knows no beginning
angst countenance etched on far too many faces
the trap is laid without any realization
a soul bargained in a tilted game
your fate is sealed for eternity

Butterfly

Vulnerable sapphire butterfly
triangulating on an odoriferous flower
alliance of peace between plant and bug
nothing to sublimate it from its pollen obsession
its delicate majesty enthralls your eyes
as its wings seem to enclose the flower petals
it finishes its work and moves onward in moments
my eyes linger on its blue wings in flight
and my spirits are lifted on its back

[powerpress image="http://www.wandererthoughts.com/images/wandererthoughts300.jpg"]

Turkey Run

Astonishment at the truthful superstition
all finally would end up as a steamy meal
with nobody to atone for their actions

A relational plan developed with much pizazz
they would extricate themselves from farm
sheathing themselves underground for safety

The plan however, went horribly wrong
a scout was not punctual in his return
focus distracted, the humans descended

A supposedly simple mission assigned
lead to a turkey massacre aftermath
inept espionage was the only blame

The turkey run had failed.

handcuffed

Repeat Offender

Handcuffed, sitting listless an insipid imbecile
now unable to brag about your deed on Twitter
humility an inconceivable thought and emotion
feeling vilified for a simple unnamed crime
a volunteer with blithe indifference for laws
RAP sheet a list of failures and mistakes
contaminated dirt needing phytoremediation
recurring theme of corruption destined to repeat
professed lover of crime and chaos until being caught
only the jailhouse blues to keep you company now
no positive In Memoriam will decorate your grave stone
yet no regret exists for committing camera fraud

@Piratelover22 (meditation), @blusol (grounded), @anefallarme (frustrated), @Zorlone (pandemonium), @TrinaMb (finally), @miriella (ecstatic), @jmbuckingham (longing), @JessicaGottlieb (shot), @Karee13 (vestal), @inab2 (dialectic), @shonie1966 (fallen), @AnnEvanston (disruptive), @purple_froggy (cast), @mikki_fit (theocracy), @KathrynVercillo (returning), @RemBeatZ (conjugated), @Jemfyr (bergamot)

Parenting Troubles

Frustrated, longing for peace and quiet
disruptive pandemonium draining sanity
ecstatic play turning into a raging battle
dialectic questioning spurs only retaliatory remarks
no vestal theocracy could decipher who started it
a sharp vicious glance shot, silencing the shouting
fallen behavior not tolerated, justice is metered
conjugated punishments cast, children are grounded
you then enter your bergamot oil scented chamber
finally returning to a state of meditation

Reunited

Just another late star next to pesky Orion
to resurrect love and faith, to guide me
hierarchy of the heavens beyond my reach
my near hollow soul a wasting ullage
this lavaliere, a last cherished gift
small token to sublimate my dark thoughts
tears well in my eyes thick and greasy
like bacon grease clinging to a drain
when will we be reunited at last?

@WorkingLori (austere), @mcaliban (enhance), @mikki_fit (ardent), @writingnag (gaudy), @JenaIsle (chelation), @Piratelover22 (Faith), @Zorlone (error), @purple_froggy (hospital), @rockalong (zenith), @wwwPoet (ambidextrous)

In Recovery

It was only faith guiding me now
ardent fear and dread present
a gaudy hospital bed my own

An error in judgment perhaps?
a performer who reached my zenith
just trying to enhance my show

Austere ambidextrous trick gone wrong
chelation my only reward
lying here in recovery

Fatal Eclipse

Surreptitious pandemonium
an extraordinary eclipse
a business escapade halted
world struck dumbfounded
the moon, a cogent ghost
sunbeams falling like chips
effervescent doomsayers chanting
reminiscing about truth and judgment
a scorpion come to sting us all
as we watch the fatal eclipse

Trick or Treat

A happy goblin with a sausage nose
haunted pirates putting on clever shows

Compilation of costumed kids lurking about
looting candy and money on a neighborhood route

A scientist who might study nephelometry
an acumen trickster stops, giggling with glee

A ghost who is no illusion this night
spinning and whirling out in plain sight

A superhero whose eye rays can split deuterium
or a Hulk who can punch through solid titanium

A girl collects another handful of bubble gum
Holiday euphoria and both kids and adults succumb

Every last fragment of candy scoured at last
another Halloween night has finally passed
