Best Arguments Poems

the nights were filled with arguments
new jersey had a new prostitute
spring and true love, drunken moments
soon mutable to the crashing of objects
against the walls, the doors
freedom thru defenestration
how was i supposed to read and write
i would bang on the wall
hey, Quasimodo, pax vobiscum, remember
mans sana...

I used to walk the playground during recess 
Listening to the laughter
And saw the stars twinkled and glowed in their faces. 
Running, jumping, climbing, swinging, 
And sliding in the rain,
Wind, snow, and sunshine. 
Always made my day cheerful and bright. 

However,

There was much more going...

I lost my arguments, with the gods
and sage man Apolinar, 
decided to leave, whose humbleness
should be immortalized, as it deserves,
by those who have been touched by him. Though, he 
never asked for an epitaph, to be engraved, 
in his beloved islands,
yet I, being disobedient and...

Let’s play charades!
No. Tic tac toe.
No Pictionary!
Okay, time for Cranium Cadoo.

A game that combines logic,
Chardes
Tic tac toe
and Pictionary!

New argument.
I want to be green!
No. I  am green.
I am always green.

The babysitter gives up.
Not realizing when Mom is here 
she is always green...

I have another piece that's too long for the poetry section - so it's in "Short Stories."

It's called "arguments" - about my summer vacation between freshman & sophomore year (at university).

I know I could take things out - to make the piece shorter and fit...

words erupt from an inner world
of subconscious fear
things said that cannot be unsaid
repercussions accusations
love at risk of being undone
crushing
unnecessary painful with stings
of hurt and projection
out of place and perspective
daggers unsheathed
pointed at the heart of all hearts

booze does not have a favourable impact
the little devil is...

Angry arguments, hurt so bad,
If it hurts... why we argue more,
Can't understand what makes us mad,
Angry arguments, hurt so bad,
For days together... we stay sad,
Then back to normal as before,
Angry arguments, hurt so bad,
If it hurts... why we argue more.

salient arguments
whirlwind across the floor
rugs of rolling hills
closets filled yet more
the ones we never speak of
portraits fleering
infinite mirrored reflections
walls of respective distances
dogs chasing their tales
mad electrons seeking rest
grabbing at foreign orbits

i turn to her
i have failed in suburbia
the great american dream
i am returning to the...

Nostalgia reminds, regrets accrue
Tears stain, emotions reign
Grasps erratic, hands uncertain
Despaired concerns, a heart wrenched 
Lies appease, future truths. 

Distance abundant, doubts excessive
Pace slows, feet lead ahead
Evasive glances, assumptions severing
Dependence realised, apologies strained 
Care aches, departing thoughts resign. 

Direction bemused, frustrations perplexed
Discussions flow, arguments resist
Audible voices,...

HER
No matter what I try to do
Things are never right for you
You always make me feel so blue
Even after, what we went through


HIM
Things will never be the same
Till you stop this silly game
You can’t deny, I’ve tried so hard
But you know, you played that card


HER
What...

I can not stand this 
Screaming outside my door
The screaming and yelling 
I try to ignore.
It keeps getting louder
As more screams appear
One right after another
It seems so hard to bear.
It makes me want to cry 
But I try to stay strong
But they need to stop
Their...

I hate when you bring out 
this version of me,
I fly like a bat 
I sting like a bee.

Hissing at you with
a red, forked-tongue,
I can spit like a llama
I can kick away dung.

I hate when the worst of me 
releases such venom,
The stench from our...

Here starts Christ’s journey
Jesus enveloped in burning sand 
Starving and alone 
A snake slithered to Jesus 
Yaldabaoth whispered 
“Loved flower of the father 
If you’re truly that 
Tell the stone to become bread” 
But Jesus proclaimed 
“According to your very law 
In your very words...

A boss can The Vigorous retire
While the latter is still a live wire,
His arms still sinewy, his feet sound tires:
The one who vibrant kids sires...

A boss can send home his firm's tears' dryer:
Saver of company's cars from mire,
It doesn't have to die down: 'the fire'
Nor...
