Premium Member Addressing the World
Intolerance grips our life’s mainstay hard, guiltless blood flows, civilizations clash, heart splinters into disposable shard. In the clutch of stress relationships crash. Let times change before it explodes within. War-tank becomes piano, gun forms flute, mercenary turns into violin. They play symphony of brotherhood mute. Let times get free from the hands of power. Scorn turns bouquet, hate a branch of olive, mind an...

Premium Member Addressing the World with Gifts Divine
In this strife ridden world of ours today, It’s pain and suffering, we often see around. Many a man wanders aimless in utter dismay. Many wallow in despair as problems surround. So many are lost in the arid deserts of life, Failing to distinguish the oasis from the mirage. Feet burning, wading through blistering strife, They're duped by life's well...

Premium Member Addressing the Soup: For Constance
I'm addressing the Poetry Soup community, not with divine words, for none of us come close to being righteous. Hurting the feelings of poets who have suffered a loss is an act of self-righteousness. Never would I try to stifle someone's poetic art The words and phrases from their every thought Most often their lines come from within...

Addressing the world today
As I sit here in my home and watch my children grow I worry for the future and wonder what will come I take the time to educate and teach my child to know Of the differences within this world and what person they'll become We talk about the things in life that they will come to find That...

Shadows Addressing Empty Chairs
Your face contorts in a twisted effort Plaintive in non-decorous reverberation A terrain around a pair of distant orbs Lost in extemporaneous consternation To ward off the fear of unwanted evanescence Upon the wanton revelation Of a day you wish had never existed Tremors beset a set of fingers While the mind steadies the hand that lights A random electric cigarette...

Premium Member Addressing Passion
She wears a slightly see-thru dress of pleasure That of which night accentuates the curves more Her chest showing nipples in equal measure Drawing power of acquiescence on shore Her form leaves me meandering towards lust That dress just blends into her skin, like her bust It all becomes one, shows off all her glory She has my heart, her love...

Premium Member Addressing Inequity
History books are filled with men’s escapades Are women’s accomplishments seen as charades? Joan of Arc had visions of saints leading her to save France from Britain’s tyrannical cur. Rosa Parks refused to give up her bus seat -- defending rights, she’d not succumb to defeat Mary Magdalene had historians confused; she watched Christ die, though apostles refused. Eleanor Roosevelt was the...

The blood that covers Is there to be stemmed It's the reasons why That we have to comprehend Discussions are set Minds to be spoken To continue with life No more wounds to be open Self harm is among us But many of us will never know We have to address the dressings And stem this flow Written after reading Marie Harrison's poem http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/poetry-soup-12.php...
