Approximated Poems | Examples


Positive Notion

"I'm from the creativity in Music, 
Approximated, Duplicated, and never Faded
where facts are stated, initiated, and created through the complicated 
In the inner city, I deplore the use of weapons 
Because it creates a misconception of imperfections 
I'm from the moment where our lives are not completed 
A strong Heart is always needed"

Hope

Hope.

I am for everyone
on cold dark days

through their furor they cling to me
or let go of me 
or reach

each to his fragment of my entirety
approximated by exposure of soul

I am forgotten
in their days of glory.
I  bear no rancor

who am I
I am hope 

~A. Corpus

Confession

I admit I approximated akin adultery
Abusively allowing my abominable,abstinent eyes
To absorb abstract,alluring beauty around me
Gazed galvanic glances guiltily
Thus glamorized God's grave gluttony.

To absorb abstract,alluring beauty around me
Gazed galvanic glances guiltily
Thus glamorized God's grave gluttony.

Premium MemberAfter Reading Rumi

... I felt the world open up
before my eager eyes.
A rusted gear from within,
began to crank without compensation.
An unexpressed thought,
that words could not describe,
but merely approximated
by divine decree.
A foreign emotion being made
familiar; the Tower or Babel being turned
on it's proverbial head.

I wanted to see it all at once,
the world that was just given,
but handed it back instead.
I treated what I learned
like a four-leaf clover.
May someone else pick it up again
and carry on with that fragment
of well wishes.
In the words of Rumi, today
I seek wisdom by becoming Somebody, 
compared to yesterday and my goals of cleverness.
The world could not be
changed by words alone...

... I rolled up my sleeves.



NOTE: Rumi was a famous poet in the thirteenth century. His work has inspired me quite a few times. I don't know if he was Christian or not, but there was a lot of wisdom in his poetry... I'd definitely recommend him!
