Best Armoury Poems

Hall of Silent Women

in valhala
in a far corner
of this martial paradise
is one small unobtrusive hall
above the heavy iron door
these words are faintly inscribed

“ the war department
 regrets to inform you
that your son……
has been killed 
in action, in defence of……”

women 
silent
row upon row
straight backed, tight lipped,...

Glass, a lid
Slipping, a curtain of purest water
Drop
Now fainting, waking and beating
Closer growing, armoury for an apparition
Dreaming of wings, but oh,
But oh

Trail, paper
Walls are covered and so I cover
Following observant
Back in archives of interwar
My sister stood, my shadow
Overbearing and eating me

Beating with a pulse
The cave...

On an afternoon, rather dull and dreary
When things seemed quite tryingly weary
All of a sudden erupted a flurry
(Possibly the result of a flavoured curry?)
As a rather pungent aroma did diffuse
Speedily into the air, that it did abuse
With a violence so strong, so full of punch
That...

In the collected fleece 
Soft white dappled against a crisp blue sky
Morning broke to its light of passion
As the phantom shades
Bowed their acquiescence
To the brush works of beauty 

All came to nothing
Rolled beneath the rubber
Black the highway snake, a river
Coughed upon the throat of petrol...

The Lay of Sir Donald

(Or: Le Chanson de Donald)

An orange man – of red and trailing tie,
Small hands, and copious twitter-feed – sing I!
Most staunch ’gainst Saracen and Mede is he,
Bare-armed and ruddy-necked his followers be.
Brightly he barteth, and knows how, full well,
In sev’n-score characters...

Every time and anytime,
i mistakenly delete or loss a poem 
that i have sweated so hard to compose

i feel like,
i have lost a golden child,
but after couples of struggling to retrieve back the poem, 
from the land of lost poets,

I normally eventually get it back,...

Prevailed in the year past we have...by the reason of faith in Calvary's Cross, 
To a year anew, we have crossed
Fiery fights were fought some we...

A TEACHER'S APOLOGY

I know we can talk,

That despite all you'll rise; walk!

This betrayal your eyes display will not shake you

Nor the pain you think I caused break you

I know not why you bore the scourge

Why you lost your courage

Once you had faith 

You could move...

There's no way to go back, sometimes I wish there was,
we'd pluck out the highlights, just simply because;
I'm not going to give a catalogue, a long moan,
rather some reflections, when being home-alone.

It makes you chuckle, give a 'whew,' a smile too,
extract what you can, keep...

A valiant soldier stands before me
Eyes flooding with tears.
In one mere teardrop
I see significance, joy and fears.

I see experience and courage
And wisdom beyond years.
Battles fought. Some won. Some lost.
A hope that's grown, then disappeared. 

A valiant soldier pure and true
Whose armoury is LOVE.
No need for...

A LEGEND BETTER THAN HAKIMI
 
Back in '94 partying, Gabriel met Christina,
frolicking and they really got personal. 
They married though she's 30 years younger
and were happily married for 20 years
despite the fact they weren't peers.

However, Christina eventually decided
that she wanted them divided. 
But when she...

Though fear is an instinctive characteristic
It is implanted by some suckers, on the society
Giving birth to an intimidating practice; hoary
That has gripped the humanity since genesis.

Exploitation is the dearest offspring of fear
That has enslaved humankind down the ages
Unleashing a reign of trepidation repeatedly
Has no parallel...

WAR

In peace you 
frown
Tussle is your 
work tool
pain,turbulence 
and anger are 
in thy armoury
T'reat holds an 
upper hand in 
thy army
Thy assign 
force as an 
army staff

War you paste 
armistice in the 
heart of men 
clearing their 
wages with 
blood;
and   editing 
fear from...

The Invader 

August night, air condition off no electricity, dying in my 
own “sweat,” a word I wasn’t going to use again. A sudden 
gush of hot air makes the curtain move, in a surprised way 
like an English castle ghost caught unaware in the...

Jerusalem, where Jesus went.
Was ruled by heathen hell bent.
Outraged. All England in discontent.
An Army will be sent.

In Jerusalem. The Holy land.
We will stand.
Sons and cash, give your all.
For this project answer the call.

Ships made ready, without stint.
Knights sharpening their swords.
With a glint.
Heavy armoury, shields and...
