Always Poems

Very rarely will you ever see,
anyone who hates money more than yours truly.
"Well, If you don't want your money,"
they say to me constantly,
"you can always give it to me."
They don't even hear themselves sadly,
not realizing that money, are the chains...Read More

Cloaked Thoughts
By: Miracle Man
2/25/2020

Dissembled thoughts never go on trial,
in psyche's dusty corner their life is spent.
Unless fruition comes by our lifestyle,
intent remains always, to circumvent. 

Our thoughts are owned until we opt to share, 
but like small town talk they're...Read More

At the age of almost seventy, I'm now looking closer at my longevity.
The 'twilight years" are quickly approaching, my parts, now old are boldly encroaching. I'm running out of time to right a wrong before I, too, sing my swan...Read More

Today is a yellow day
everything is so blaze’
I’m sure to have my way
If I don’t have much to say.

We snip, we snarl then
it’s makeup time.
The next few moments 
are so sublime.

The trees fly by stately
in their own way.
I’m sure if...Read More

i shall never be able to forget our affection
was deep as first love, and wild as all regret-
crimson and medallion encompass my soul;
‘neath the autumn moon i still etch your silhouette

sincerity arrived and remorse soon followed,
for i needed compassion, someone...Read More

 
The flame of friendship ignited in us,
our spirits entwined like twin blazes, yes;
We became a beautiful matching pair,
with a special connection very rare.

Now, because of work you must leave,
but you will always be my friend, Genevieve;
No matter the years...Read More

You have loved me, always,
as you did throughout our spring-
so lush and green-
when nothing was too hard for us
to keep our love
alive and new.

All through the summer of our life,
as children blessed
our married years,
and tending to them became first-
you did...Read More

Reality driven.


Hand on heart I love you.
From the start my love has been true.
So beautiful, as soon as we met.
You caught me looking and I was trapped in your net.


Stuck to you through thick and thin.
You are on my mind...Read More

A complex God


I can’t always be your salvation.
One day I will rip you apart.
I won’t always be a helping hand,
Because one day I will reach inside and tear out your heart.


If you allow me to love you, utterly and truly,
Then...Read More

I will always fight,
on the right side of good.
Against those who bring hate,
like everyone should.

I welcome your trolls,
I will show them their place.
And if we should meet,
I'll present to their face.

Silence is golden,
no hate will be found.
But keep it up...Read More

I grew up a child of the ’60’s
together my life and the hippie movement dawned…
now when I look back at that time I wonder…where have all the hippies gone?

Those long haired tie-dyed idealists who walked around with our feet bare
who...Read More

THE DYSLEXIC NIGHT

Back in the first millennium,
Putting the world to rights,
There lived a king called Arthur
With a band of gallant knights.

They did things democratically,
Seated round a table.
Although the lines are slightly blurred
Between true fact and fable.

The knights were known for...Read More

But life in this garb of death
remains fleeting

And I 
the man so pitiful to be
consumed by dead
this life by ending
destroys my grasp upon it

I starve in savage
the postmortem of my faith
yet humbled not
turn this perfidious belief
against the works of God

By...Read More

My imagination was not amused by my muse
Had I thought they were the same thing?
If so I was sorely mistaken

My imagination was tired of her taking all the credit
For every line, every rhyme, every word that made sense
That’s mine! Trixie...Read More

i left
with ridding
my house
of mice

yes
i killed
them

i went
to a place
of a gecko
chirping

his song
i fell to
sleep by

back i came
but nuts a
squirrel in
the wall

on the roof
tomorrow
perhaps

i'll lift 
my arms
and reach
for the sky

hoping 
as i always
wanted to be

a
bird
and 
fly

away...Read More

A beautiful, perfect, autumn day it was. 
The gold and red sneaking in the Central Park leaves as it 
always does. 
I wanted to stay home with my wife and son. 
But realized there were bills to 
be paid and...Read More

Landmines lurking everywhere
   Danger here, peril there
You family members really care
   With them your feelings always share...Read More

GOD KNOWS THAT I AM HUMAN

God knows that I am human, He knows that I will fall,
So He’s there to forgive me when on Him I will call.
Oh yes, there is chastisement and there’s a price to pay
If from Him...Read More

See it standing there elongated and bright
See it standing there thinking about me all night
It is shooting up in the air with no limit to bear
It’s standing tall and strong with something for everyone.

It’s only a tree but it keeps...Read More

As you go out wandering
Living life’s ups and downs
Even walking the dog
Playing around.

Always stay connected to the center 
Like a yo-yo you be
Never quite running out all the way
Past any edge you can see.

Remembering who commands the string
And on what...Read More

What’s in a number, those two that be together;
To bring two numbers (or things) together;
To make a new total
One and Three, 1 + 3 over…

Merrily, bringing me-Stability;
Invokes me grounds me;
In nature of all things I see;
One and Three, 1 plus...Read More

I’m hurting inside with such misery 
feeling like death at times 
dismissive falling to my knees 
Trying so hard to make you happy with love and reflection 
dreams now shattered 
can’t understand these thoughts inside me 
Distortion is fogging my...Read More

On sultry humid southern afternoons
we gathered on the old mansion porch,
glasses filled with ice and long-stemmed spoons,
sipping grandma’s home-brewed lemonade 
spiked with grandpa’s finest homemade
white-lightnin’ packing a punch as any
he had for years been brewin’ illegally,
which got us selves lit...Read More

DISUNITY THEN UNITY
 
Last Episode of Pure Fantasy.

Fireball always seems to take center stage,
Except in the last episode it was with absolute rage,
Echoman has secretly loved this ravishing beauty
Lost her to a human whilst she was on duty!
There were good...Read More

State of perception placates
sun or moon
incubi or mindful art
dreamlike lays or lucidity

a place of rest where we are restless
turning in and tuning out
body's give but souls still shout
exuberantly in the echo chamber of the heart

arrows bent and often missed
butterflies all...Read More
