Best Annihilated Poems


Surviving the Narcissist's Merry-Go-Round

You seduced, you stole, you exalted, you annihilated, 
You elevated, you decimated, you connected, you sucked me dry,
You opened me up, you closed me down, 
You delivered me to ecstasy, you devalued and discarded me, 
You were sensual, you were sardonic,
You made my heart smile, you tore out my soul, 
You put me on a marble pedestal, you stoned me with your vicious tongue, 
You bathed my heart in liquid gold, you buried me in quick sand, 
You crowned me as your princess, you burnt me at the stake, 
You were my prophecy, you were my satan, 
Your hands knew every inch of me, 
You tore out my essence and trampled my boundaries, 
You pledged unity only with me, you cheated, 
You held me tightly in your arms, you suffocated the life out of me, 
You cast, you hooked, you netted, you feasted, 
You made every nerve ending shiver deliciously, 
You became my nervous breakdown, you were my divine intervention, 
You disconnected me from my higher power, 
You were luminous, you illuminated, you are an illusion. 
You loved and yet you didn't. 
Because love is real. And you are not.

                            Captivating galaxies numbering more
                            than grains of sand carpeting a shore
                            Spheres orbiting stellar giants of yore
                            a plethora of exquisite jewels and ore

                            Humans should revel in their inclusion
                            amid a choreographed mystic creation
                            Flawlessly crafted objects of perfection
                            an orchestrated symphonic conception

                            Corroded vision envelops bigoted eyes
                            antediluvian blinders befuddle the wise
                            Deep consternations must be liberated
                            dread of unknowns willfully annihilated

                            Distant worlds peculiar and enchanting
                            purple skies bring snowflakes in spring
                            Hopefulness aroused by emerald moon
                            patiently await solar heat not monsoon

                            Wanderlust evokes interstellar journeys
                            light years away towards a dark furnace
                            Emanating celestial wonders exude elan
                            Starman greets Ancient Alien Earthman!

Premium Member Light Particle

Light, defined as electromagnet and;
The radiation of photon particles
Natural visible light with intensity and frequency
The Light wavelength (spectrum / polarization propagation)

Fire / light, is a fiery chemical warming substance
Bioluminescence lights are of sea-creatures glowing
Fireflies are flickering their internal lights at night
Sunlight fuels all green plants with photosynthesis empowering

People pleasure and preen at the beach with sunny sun tanning
Sunlight illuminates Mountain trails for bicycling and trekking
Sunsets have lavender with orange bright beams extending
Solar sunrays light a day of picnic park fun with joyful frolicking

Some of the light spectrum is radio, white light, ultraviolet and x-rays
Infrared is only heat visible and gamma-rays are the most powerful
Small lasers are used in disk drives, printers, and fiber-optics
Fiber-optic networks are a light fast digital information system

TV plasma, liquid crystal displays, LEDs light-emitting diodes gives visuals
These assist our everyday visual optic neural perceptions
Cars have headlights and ships use fog-lights
Light-towers have flood-lights and we use handy flashlights

Tesla and Edison partook in the light bulb’s bright invention
Lewis Latimer and Joseph Nichol invented its carbon filament
This did dispel much of the world’s nighttime darkness
Lightning lights, to reveal charges of negative and positive

Colors of violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red: are hidden in white light
Some colors are viewed when seeing a rainbow over a dewy meadow
What can be possibly seen at the other end of a rainbow?
This, the notes of God’s faithful abatement covenant

Starlight is continually being reflected and refracted
Earth and the Heavens at night are lit, by starry star lights
Great stars are round and renowned and fiery fireballs
They in a balance of great equilibrium

Stars dispersing their photon particles at light speed
"Light speed, “299,792,458 meters per second"
Light, is a part of the equation “E=MC squared”
“Energy,” not made, nor annihilated, yet always in flux

"Natures life sustaining and revealing lights"
"The Light Particle / Waves" 
Yes, once created by the Creator


Premium Member Asphalt Jungles

Upon tomorrow's arrival,
today fades into yesterday.
And apathy spurs denial
while endangered animals die.

Wherever concrete cities rise;
collateral damage: occurs.
And jet plans traverse open skies,
while birds get annihilated.

We dedicate our existence,
to a utopia of steel.
And survive in asphalt jungles;
shadowed by lofty achievements.

Reality is a mirage,
projected on collapsing hopes.
And yet, safe in our cubicles,
we tout this plastic paradise.

The Earth is irrevocably
changing into a barren sphere.
And as the legacy of fools,
greed projects profit as progress.

Premium Member Stockholm and Syria- a Life Is a Life

a life is a life
there is no grading scale of value
irrespective of
country of origin
or country of residence
or country of destination

a life is a life
we are all children
of God
there is no lesser God
there is no greater God
there is God
the Supreme Being
We are all his children

we call Him by different names
that is to our own shame
He is the same

a life is a life
not man's to take
not man's to torture
not man's to break

a life is a life
the life blood still seeps
into the ground
while we stand by and weep

and still the question echoes
"where is your brother?
where is your sister?
where are the children?
where are the mothers
the fathers?
whose blood is soaking the ground?"

and still we shamelessly bellow:
"Am I my Brother's Keeper?"

and the answer hasn't change
time cannot change it
nor circumstance
"yes"
......"Oh, Yes!"
we are one family
Don't just let it be...
"Who cares!
it's not happening to me!"

Stockholm and Syria
My heart is crying
endless requiem
for those dead and dying

a life is a life is a life...is a life
one day that life will be mine
one day that life will be yours
that life will be taken
taken by force

who places the value on life?

Silence is the breeding ground
where atrocitiesmflourish
"after all, who remembers the Armenians"
Hitler intimated
as the Jews he annihilated

Speak OUT!

a life is a life
death was not meant to be
not for them
not for you
not for me

a life is a life

Invisible

EXCUSE ME!!!!
Do you not see me
standing before you?
Do you not realize that I,
a black woman had a life
that mattered too?
The black woman appears to be
the best kept secret in death
being wiped from the face of the earth 
where many won’t remember
our names or know of our existence 
When black girls vanish
the only way anyone knows is 
through the newsfeed of social media 
when white girls vanish
the news media makes sure
the world is notified
while paying no attention
to the clues of plasma
footsteps we leave behind
Many ignore the crimson bleed 
of life that seeped
from the opening of the
slashed throat racism made 
leaving us to become
the mutilated corpse lying
on the ground society
relentlessly steps over
We’re viewed as a nothing gender 
Melanated race of women
often deemed as bothersome or angry 
The bellows of our spirits
are discombobulated
as we quickly become
shadows of unrecognized Queens
we are being killed in alarming masses
and all you can say is we must of had it coming
Black women are the givers of the 
black lives that are supposed to matter
still we are looked upon
as the doormat placed at
the bottom of the totem pole
you seem to enjoy wiping your feet on
When it comes to black men,
you are seen and heard,
be it good bad or indifferent
but how high must a black woman jump
 in order to be seen
how loud must a black woman shout
in order to be heard
Better yet 
how many black women need to
be annihilated before our lives
are mourned and celebrated
Brothers, are you willing to
stand up to protect us, even if it's
your fellow brother we need
to be protected from
Our life and death must not be in vain
So what will you do in order change it
Remember, 
black  women marched for you
don’t you think it's time you march for us?
We are forced into invisibility
like the remnants of
Sandra Bland’s disparity
that was swept under the rug
and lifeless body of Kanika Jenkins
they shoved into a refrigerated coffin
Nia Wilson’s memory they washed away
along with her blood that stained the platform
of a Bay Area Transit Station
or Breonna Taylor and Atatiana Jefferson's peace
they fatally laid to rest in the confines
of their own home
I will forever remember their names...will you??


Time Is Violated

I call upon my Reaper
Only he can save me now.
Watch me fall deeper,
Watch me fall down.

Feeling broken,
Barely breathing
Words re-main unspoken
My body seizing.

Artificial light blinds me,
Criples me.
The sound of the Banshee.
The forgotton bourgeoisie.

My impending sorrow,
My fortitude annihilated.
Is there tomorrow?
Time is violated.

Premium Member Gemini Woman Brings Home Cancer Man

Gemini met Cancer on a summer day
She quite frankly took his breath away
He thought things were done in male or pink
She showed him another way to think 

She gave him a wink and came right over
It amazed him this Cancer named Tom C. Clover
Her name was Cass and she was full of sass.
Her charisma knocked him off his a……

He had always paid his bills on time, this Norse.
She thought it funny and quite stilly of course. 
She taught him all kinds of different ways to think.
She showed him that not all women stay in pink.

He was thrown off his feed and immediately smitten.
She moved in with him, and brought her Siamese kitten.
His family could not believe how impulsive this was for him.
He had never done things this fast, not on a whim.

Cassie turned his life thoroughly upside down.
He realized he could never live again without her around.
He planned the wedding because she was too busy to do it.
She skipped down the aisle and laughed all the way through it.

Their union has lasted nigh onto sixty years.
His relatives died off, which annihilated their fears.
They have sixteen grandchildren and a great grand or two.
They have had a fabulous life, not a day that was blue.

I Seek a Cataclysm

I am a very ordinary inhabitant of this world.
Even before I was born, our ancestors had divided the earth into fragments.
One of those fragments is my country—India or Bharat.

You too have your own fragment—Brazil, Venezuela, Cuba, Finland, Ukraine, Nigeria, Iran, Bangladesh—or some other nation.

I can clearly see—on this human earth, horrific and grotesque dinosaurs are roaming about.
They walk on two legs, speak in human language,
wear the garments of civilization— yet in their hearts lies prehistoric darkness.
In their brains—fire, arrogance, imperialism.

Some know them as Trump, some as Putin, some as Xi Jinping, some as Netanyahu, some as Khomeini, some as Laden— the names differ, but the politics of destruction is the same.

These dinosaurs turn fire into weapons,
turn humans into ashes, and standing upon those ashes
they raise the flag of power.

I wish—just like millions of years ago— that an asteroid would come hurtling toward the earth, that these bloodthirsty two-legged dinosaurs would become extinct.
Let the earth remain. Let children’s laughter remain. Let humanity remain.
Let this monstrous species of power be annihilated.

Every day, with basil leaves in my hand,
I pray to the Almighty—for a moral cataclysm.
The smoke rising from the scorched bodies of innocent people is not extinguished even by our tears.
It is not extinguished at all...

Competition

The time is finally here
'Haterz' have no fear
For I have come in peace to compete
And to attain my rightful position and seat

You see when I battle people,it's just unfair
I hold **** down and y'all are unaware
I stay true to my word,as long as I said it
ooh, then I mean it

I bring wreck like little Denice the menice
But do not be fooled,i'm complex like the city of venice
You all be rapping this and that,**** be fabricated
Bring your garbage round me,get you all annihilated 


I'm chemically unchanged,no one here is a challenge
Battling me is risky,observe the talent
My lyrics untouched,flow is hot,with a twisted plot
I got ice in my veins,so keep a close watch

Don't mess with me,'cause i'll clap the steel
I might just be the type of dude you all need to kill
But Revenge is a dish served cold
So I wear coats and stay in murk mode

And For people thinking they got potential
Tell them to wait until I put a missile in their lines
They should wait till I beat them lyrically off the porch step 
The only reason their rap is tight is 'cause they wear a corset

My heart knows that I'm close to that seat
Soul sings for joy,cause the sun is under my feet
Sense organ smells victory
I smile 'cause of the obvious sign of prosperity

Hope you all see that I ain't got to exert much energy when facing enemies
I'll probably haunt your dreams like Jason's enemies
I'm very powerful with pen
Mightier than the sword,it is written once again.

Premium Member Straight White Christian

Constitution says All men are created equal
We live in the home of the brave
But we annihilated the Red man
And made the black man a slave
We imprisoned the Yellow man
And judged the poor and the gay
Only a rich straight white Christian
Can be a free man today
We thirsted for power, now isn't it odd
We raped, pillaged and plundered in the Name of God
We committed crimes time will never erase
Then thumped a Bible in your face
We sin compulsively assuming God will forgive it
Then preach Christianity but we never live it
We formed a bigoted society where hate is the rule
If we accept others as Equals we call our own a fool
We sit in judgement of others, I guess we forgot
This isn't the way that Jesus taught
I'm a straight white Christian so maybe I'll fall
But I'll die believing God created us all
So when I read the Bible and God's Children I see
I'll never assume it's only children like me.
I no longer listen to your bigoted view.
Equality for all, not just people like you.

Equality means Equality and Bigotry is Bigotry
Jesus said "Love Thy Neighbor" NO DESCRIPTIVE ADJECTIVE.

The Elusive Art

Funky Funkus For Fortunate Few
Real artists won't do alliteration
Modernist are we the folks
Seeking adoration
Post structuralism 
Is the old order
Annihilated are the Sonnets
And poetic formations.
Conversing  takes another dimension
Philosophising,  Looping, interlinking 
Elastic boundaries. Self-analysing.  
Sociolinguistic inventions 
Obeying but rejecting universal conventions.

Paradoxes reign in the world of poetic art
The art. The art. Why art thou so elusive?

Child without a mother
Child in tears
Tears flow
Tears remain

Remain insecurities
Remain fears
Fears torment
Fears hold captive

Uncertainty of love

Uplifts in thoughts
Uplifts in deeds

Deeds done
Deeds good or bad
Bad action
Bad examples

Illness overwhelms
Illness destroys

Destroys humble home
Destroys reputation

Short of hope

Traversing the Lucky Country

Exploring the suburbs at Melbourne
Glad are the late nights’ burnt

Bustling Bourke Street Mall
Epitome of a retail therapy’s call

The archaic Flinder’s Station
Scheduling warrants attention

Cho-chooing to Sydney
Never costs a kidney

The surmountable Clothes Hanger
Climbing it is not a head-banger

The romantic Sydney harbour
Releases lovers’ masquerade and cover

The stunning Opera House
Pit stop onwards to the south

The flora of the Botanical Garden
Seemingly children running at kindergarten 

The national parks of Wollongong
Hitting the musical notes of the gong

Rekindling memories of Bosman’s Bay
Is a paradise comes what may

Forgoing the isle of Tasmania
That would be the fear of Cradle Mountain mania

In the southern city of Hobart
Where we could relish a tart

Sailing off to Perth
That was never my berth

Discovering the untouched Fremantle
Goes to show an adventurer’s mantle

Diving the Great Barrier Reef
Provides a temporary relief

Coasting the white beaches of Gold Coast
The locals are but good hosts 

Annihilated by the waves of the Pacific
Almost make thee panic

Crisscrossing the plains of Adelaide
Part of the best plans’ laid

Allure of the Red Centre
Australia’s stunning epicentre

In the midst of a red desert
Harbour hopes to return and not divert

Discovering the monumental Alice
Go head to head with some malice

Sailing across Katherine’s Gorge
The fissures is a sight to watch

The northern tip of Darwin
Just like the pinnacle wanting to win

Ode to the Northern Territory
A journey of national geographic really

Viva the land of Oz
Paradise and grandiose she was
