Acquisitive Poems


Premium MemberThe Fall

The human race, what a running gag we are
We truly believed that we are infallible 
But alas that is a damn fabrication 
We were never flawless to commerce with
Why would we be flawless when we are eliminating Earth
The being who gave us life
It is in avaricious that chopped down numerous trees that gift us Oxygen
It is in voracious that drove many species into extinction
It is in acquisitive for resources that extracted Earth dried
It is in rapacious that  poisoned the  air we breathe in and the ocean
We were appraise numerous times to cease but it is our human stubbornness that we are refused to not listen
There are numerous that attempt to save the Earth and unfortunately we scorn them
It is our human egotastic that is caused the death of our beloved planet
And now we must reap what we sow
With no redemption
We must watch our loved ones pass one by one
We must observed the human race become go extinct
Because of Human nature

21st Century

This is the 21st Century
Where it seems the masses
Are still placed on this Earth
To serve the upper classes,
Feed their acquisitive appetites 
Wipe their delicate arses,
And all in all perpetuate
That longest of running farces,
Respect for so called betters,
Eating crumbs from their table
Serving with dedication 
For as long as they are able
Until comes that day 
They can no longer try
Then have the decency
To just crawl off and die.
Its the same the world over
Every where you can go
The system is dedicated 
To maintain the status quo
Is god still in his heaven?
Will we all get an entry pass
So we can continue serving
That heavenly upper class.

Premium MemberAppropriate Cultures

Cultural ownership,
disproportionately lavished upon kings,
the occasional ecopolitical queen,
white male Republican Senators,
elite corporate CEOs
overdriving inside monocultural management
feeding consumer acquisitive appetites

Leads to cultural entitlement

Elitely leads to cultural appropriation,
where I win appropriate proportions
at your loser disproportionate misfortune,

And,
sometimes to multicultural creolization,
where everyone wins Golden Rules
co-arisingly together.

Levitating Leviathans-Ca

Acquisitive anguish arising within my acceptant abyss

The creatures that lurk within the deep 

Are without hope and sustenance

I awake aimlessly with thoughts that have gone awry

Every nuance of my being accumulating auspicious hell

For amidst the atrocious abdominous appetites

I linger in a lachrymal graveyard levitating leviathans

Craving for more absolutistic ambient assuage

Adoring and absorbing your aesthetic appetency

Accepting your allure of ambitious alienation 

And yet I absolve you from all your atrocities.

Kimberly

Certain Summers remain uppercase, 
all blue, heat and breakneck.  We daughters of the season,
off-key in synchronicity, played out
the inborn cool of our age..
You and I came up through a flowery, fulsome time
that thought highly of itself, all laissez-faire but
as acquisitive as any generation.
I meant to never go away.  'Course, there I went, 
since that's the sway life has on youth. 
You decamped with the first man of your 
dreams.  I doubted us, for a time, and fear is so often 
posture, worthy or not of passing on. 
Now we watch other sisters, for them summer blazes
a cheap high.  They're all exclamation points, blistering style,
indifferent to rebel decades -
                  in the wake of us -

Skin Deep

Peel the refinement and what have you got
A human being who's still an animal at heart 

They will not admit they share an animal's nature
It won't happen..…they believe they're a different creature

They've lost their fur, their claws, their teeth
That's superficiality, they're still animals underneath 

But they steal the fur from animals too
And not just any fur is going to do

So they lock these creatures in small cramped cages 
And strip their skin off as they've done for  ages

But acquisitive greed might take a turn for the worse
When wanderers from space look on humans as a main course

Buried Alive

Each second slips away seamlessly,
Yet if only in this moment,
Contemplating like an allegro within my mind,
Always inquiring and acquisitive for answers,
Nothing ever manifests to be within reach,
Knowing my only certainty is this confusion,
Always tossing away my freedom’s,
Understanding nonexistence seems my reality.

Each second slips away seamlessly,
Yet if only in this moment,
Eyes open gazing, glancing forever seeking,
Focus completely blurred all reactions lost,
Whichever direction I look never matters,
Blinking as if to make sure it’s tangible,
Awake but never feeling truly awoken,
Blindness sometimes my only true desire.

Each second slips away seamlessly,
Yet if only in this moment,
My mouth agape screaming, yelling,
Continuing but never knowing if heard,
Lips moving vicariously with each expression,
Posturing with each as if an exclamation,
Painfully yearning to be fully understood,
Loneliness and being forgotten the true void.

My Slugger

B beutiful, bouncy, all boy
R rowdy, remarkable, restless
A adoreable, acquisitive, active
N natorious, nice, naughty
D demanding, dreamy, daredevil
O optimistic, open minded, ongoing
N nosey, nourishing, needed

Perfect darken complextion
Chocolate colored eyes and hair
Always a sunshine smile
In everyone's heart hes there.

Out on constant journey's
having not a single care,
Spreading your joyness around
With each new task you dare.

Oh how handsome you are
In a blink of an eye your a man,
New adventure's to seek
I'll try not to cry but undstand.
