Accordingly Poems

Abandoned realities that the Kings have sought,
Biological bacillus organisms left to rapidly rot…
Absorbefacient annihilation the pawns have brought,
The bacterium Bishops are pernicious in their plot…

Ambient affliction plagues the progressive parasites,
Of the nuclear noxious nomads reaching hellion heights…
Agents of abrogation numbing...Read More

Plantae I

As I remain in my earthly womb, respite,
Unflowered cribbed in my ultimate bed,
Whilst transpiring bared to individual elements retorts,
Oft includes distinguishable rain, midst their convictions,
Expounding relished energies of nourishing necessities,
Ex parte, neath I sprout, unnoticeably,
Embedding my toes, feverishly spreading,...Read More

Whatever Weekend

Being humble common pathways ere,
I ought traveled nearby that lea,
Past the margin of my home there,
Where the daffodils fickle sprightly,

As I shared the natural trail lead,
General impressions befall o'er sunlit,
E'er lighthearted to the bird's melodies,
I travailed the character of...Read More

Among our three dogs of mongrel breed
that mingle well with kittens 
in their jubilant mood
our African birds give us delight
cheering us while in their cage, verily secured.

Through their guarding prowess
our dogs keep us physically protected
while barking unceasingly 
signaling presence of...Read More

Been knocked down
But never put out.
Been lied to, cursed at
Even talked about.
Had a few pick-me-ups and
A couple of dust-me-offs
Serpents trying to slime me
With materialistic pay offs.
Obstacles laid in my paths
Like bear traps in the woods,
By foes and those
Who only wished...Read More

A Time For Us, Sonata


For our time has come when we walk side-by-side
and glance at each other with small talk and smiles
of deep thoughts of yesterdays
and not of things of tomorrow
as we both tighten the grips of our hands
we trace...Read More

Manifest Destiny
by Michael R. Burch

When you were in my house
you were not free—
in chains bound.

Manifest Destiny?

I was wrong;
my plantation burned to the ground.
I was wrong.
This is my song,
this is my plea:
I was wrong.

When you are in my house,
now, I am...Read More

So, it starts years ago, with protests in the streets
People allowed to lay on the road, block traffic
Then, start fires, attack police, as they’re told to stand down!
Criminals with 18+ offenses free to roam as they please
Thousands others were released...Read More

Don't know when or how it happened,
Or even why,
But I have reached an age where people see me as wise,
Yet it seems like only yesterday that I was feeling most unwise,
And acting accordingly.

Spider Fires

When we are beaten on not once, 
but over a course of years, 
a thing happens that occurs...
and sometimes but not always, 
goes away. 
Most times, 
we do not live long enough, 
for that to happen. 

It is the...Read More

And recalling them gives me delightful excitement.

Bread and milk.
Why? 
To go get my kids.

for making bad decisions,

Most of us can feel,
A disturbing pain of
Negative empotive ache
In some form
In our lives.

This can happen to us so much.
Eventually you may be
Annoyed, bored, deppressed
From that disturbing ache.

Than we say:
"Life is painful, boring, bad."
Don't be worried,
Anybody can think these any...Read More

Working past with words of flaw,

If we act like we don’t care,
 absent minded and one take stare,
bagged eyes thinking hard or just A fooling layer;

Missing You

The wind whispers and I focus my heart to hear.
Are you sending me your words? 
Your thoughts?

My days are empty, and the clock moves slowly, 
if not backward in reverse,
when I am...Read More

oozing with pleasantly sweet fragrance.

With the Lord’s Sovereign wisdom
providing me with red seed pods…
I make my whole plants

Accordingly in the language of flowers

I would have touched the ailing humanity
And cured it would have been,

Cured, forever,
Without ever fearing any sort of darkness
Grapple at their souls
And inhabiting in them!

I would have...Read More
