Sorry about accidentally posting my poem to the communities that have nothing to do with poetry, or the form I was using.

Sew it up - you're dragging your dress again.
Cinch it up - it's falling apart in the wrong places.
Draw it up - make your intentions plain.
Dry it up - martyrs have no production values.
Tear it up- they could never hold you to it.
Soak it up - you're a paper tiger now.
Live it up - somebody will buy it.
Shake it up - it's anybody's paradigm for the next 15 minutes.
Talk it up - TelePrompTers are cheap.
Lift it up - it's walking too fast for you to stand.
Even it up - it's too precious for them to keep.

It's a dry day today
The leaves are forgetting
how to breathe water.

O bean thou art fine
Crisp straight from the vine or dried
Jacketed or loose

A meal so sublime
A simple yet rich repast
The noble legume

I saw a child play.
he fell down and skinned his knee.
I roared with laughter.

When I laughed at him,
I thought of you and my eyes teared.
I wish that was you.

How did we arrive?
Dedication. Sorrow sown.
Sorrow reaped. Consumed.

my rainbow must touch the ground, it has muddy feet

Like Nut, she stretches.
Her muddy feet stir the world.
Life hums in her breast.

Stars in her hair sparkling
Winking in, out, in, living
Yet dying again.

Bright insects, dull shades,
Growing things need both to live.
Her breath gives, and takes.

poor runny eyes and noses
chill winds blowing colds

Holy Crap, it's dark!
where has all the sunshine gone?
Curse you, Ben Franklin!

dull ache of winter
I'm feeling it in my spine
thankful for the drugs

Silvering her hair

Strands of experiences

Strength differs in each

Shazam! I exclaimed.
I looked to my left and right.
there was no lightning.
