Backwardness Poems | Examples


Premium MemberTomorrows a Short Day

At this very moment lost in life, predictability 
    Mind is a mess chaos reigns, steadfastness 
     Fighting with myself shut out, convertibility 
    Not through lack of confidence, faithlessness. 

   Honesty best policy was perfect, vulnerability 
     Perceived to be bureaucratic, crookedness 
    Looking into blind darkness is not, gullibility 
     Rather an inclination to, open-mindedness. 

    Fatalistic properties impress on, observability
  Eternal bliss unlikely basis, straightforwardness 
     My own admission incurred veto, ineligibility 
    Life’s knowledge diminishes to backwardness. 

       Into the abyss keeps tumbling, infallibility 
            Round and round remorselessness 
    I’m tired now must keep sleeping, insatiability 
   In the morning truth is coming, unpreparedness. 

    Executioner asks any last words, foreseeability 
      And then comes the answer, breathlessness.

To Our Promissor Leaders

Had we have enough but day
This quagmire were no crime
We would keep mum and forget which train
To board to crush our multifarious pains

You by the Atlantic Ocean’s sides
Should we find: pulling away our plights
Of tactlessness, backwardness and peacelessness
Nay, you’ve hurled us into a river of helplessness!

You should, if you please, jail us
Till day your end would bail us!
Our advanced adversity had grown
Higher than Kilimanjaro, and the unknown;

The advancement is as old as civil war
Whilst black ate blacks’ flesh raw
Three years after, the hungry guns fell
But the advancement grows; even yet

Which year at most shall our leaders fear?
The aftermath of rendering our pockets bare?
For never do we deserve this state!
Nor should death strike us at a cheaper rate!

In Your Dance

Dancing
There is dancing
On the ground floor of earth
Eternally grateful by the beauty

I am sophisticated heart investor
Flora to flora
Fauna to fauna
I am seeking the lessons of body
No nudity is there
Centripetal gravity force of mind controls heartily 

In my heart thou life dove is flying
The blazing dance craving my inside
As divine delightful oceanic tide

The eyebrows playing with eyeballs
The nose and nostrils spying the lips
The lips amorously kissing the mouth
The hands and fingers praying and pouring mysticism
The breast beating the mind lights of world fusion
The waist and navel showing the horizontal distance of happiness
The toes hypnotizing the weak fellow in moonwalking backwardness

No I am not there
Roaming I am on the apex throne of Olympic
where your dance shaking the spirit of Zeus soul 
And Cupid seeking an eternity of me instead god of gods
by mystical unstated words of shaking exotic body 

There I am in your veins of dance 
In your heart surviving as an unrelenting drunkard 
Till the connection with the metaphysics 
where God lives alone thick ......

Rosetan People

R Roseta is famous now, Italian town, beautifully "backward"
O Okinawa, Japan, shared health wonders with Roseta 
S Science proves both sides: Lonely folks "smoke" 15 cigarettes
E Even when they are not smokers - 60 million in US feel alone
T The amazing fact is Lissa Rankin is a doctor, in the hardest way,
A Admits now, Rosetan People became lonely like "modern" people and
N Now have what we have. We treat symptoms with meds and surgery

P People lose backwardness and gain useless stress (fight or flight) always!

E Everyone must hear the Gospel (of Christ) & The Gospel of Health

O Over to you now

P Please do NOT kill the Messenger or Prophet or Poet

L Leave the doctors and Pharmacy-Disease-Industry to defend themselves!

E Ever wonder why you are so invested in defending poisoners everywhere!?

Ignorance is a talking drum
Ignorance is a drum of backwardness

Think About Africa First

Difficult to sing, but let us chorus  today
Let us all sing  African patriotism song

Africa the golden land of our fathers
Would be exceptionally advanced in all fields
But stewards full of ego, serve self interests
Stewards, think about Africa first

Minerals, fertile lands, good climate
Would make Africa earth’s goods, bread plate
But stewards serve, family, relatives, parties
Stewards, think about Africa first

True peace, justice, good governance
Would make Africa honored land of freedom 
But stewards want fame, serve world powers
Stewards, think about Africa first

Poverty, disease, hate, backwardness
Would be scattered into the sea of imagination
But stewards horde wealth in foreign nations
Stewards, think about Africa first

Unemployment,  landlessness, corruption
Would be strangers in African continent by now
But stewards value foreigners more not citizens
Stewards , think about Africa first 

Infant, maternal mortalities, genocides
Would be unknown in modern world of reason
But stewards value conflict, witch hunting others
Stewards, think about Africa first

My Mom

TO MY MOM DADA ZOUWAIRATOU M YAUKI
THE TRUEST HAUSA-FULANI

The iron core of the whole family
She stands with the long rooster
First crow which tears up, praying, and
Goes on laboring till the owl grave hoots
Herald the veiling darkness and darkness
Is life, and might. 
But also death and weakness.
The hoots made me feel so small when 
A child, and think of mother to soothe me,
For I had fears, and my people's fears were
Forced upon me too. 
Sorcerers!
Magic!
Backwardness!
Moronity!
Death!
The twain Angels 
Of life after Death!
Dream of stars, my eyes fully open 
To start
Away from my tiny world full of fairy tales
With the spider as the hero as running 
From the ghosts
Oh, Allah! Lost before standing on my feet!
I like my mom and she likes me too.
She prays Allah to grant me success
And I ask Him to forgive her, for
She’s always been my surest support
Of course she hadn’t been to school
But was a school herself. Proud 
Greedy reader, my friend, be sure that
She’s as divine as your MOST perfect mother.

New Beginnings

the past turns to rust
Experience is vast, but change has come fast
For tomorow the future i lust
Burn my past, for a new tomorow i must
Tomorow will i awake???, In God i trust
regret torments my soul, but not my thrust
Against all odds, I rose like dust....
poverty and backwardness stood in my life 
like a movie cast.
I died, they killed me,.. "yes they tried"
Path of greener pastures i did find
My pain turned blind, they lied...
"Yes they did", because i found purpose and 
pride 
They died, and i live to forget
Said "no" to my past, "no" to regret
 Victory and honor I can bet
I left, to persue life's revealings
born catterpillar, turned butterfly...I CHERISH 
MY NEW BEGINNINGS!!!

A Rising Smile

I turned around
On the march towards tomorrow 
And intensely screen yester-days
With the lens of critical thought
That provoke tears with frowns and a rising smile

Deeds I'll differently do
If time can be backwheeled
And offer a chance of recreation,
Filled those gone days
Of poor uncalculated judgements

Pain and forlon it often advance
In its undodgeable remembrance
For all it mostly yielded
As time had progressed
Seems a pack of depressive backwardness

Failure begets unappreciated credits
But here emerges a smiling face
In a teething and crippled toddler
That now maturely walks
With peer frightening confidence

Won't be blinded to new fault
I'll appraise the gains of yesterday's failure
That induced today's smile
And paint tomorrow
On a brightly admirable canvas.

Why Is Hate?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my colour,
You need to define it,
What is a best colour?
And why?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my religion,
You need to define it,
What is a best religion?
And why?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my language,
You need to define it,
What is a best language?
And why?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my poverty,
You need to define it,
Why am I poor?
And who is responsible for it?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my skills,
You need to define it,
What is your disability?
Why can you not learn?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my nationality,
You need to define it,
Why do you prefer your nationality?
How can I improve my backwardness?

If do you hate me?
The cause of my Birth,
You need to define it?
What caste and race is best?
And why?

Let’s cooperate to learn,
How can we become a human?
Animals, birds, flowers and human,
That is a bunch of nature,
Nature provides a life to live.
