Best Bane Poems

In mournful shrouded clouds my darkest mood does dress
in desolated winter drear no spring can bless.
Your death did steal my breath and heartbeat like a thief,
I’m nothing but a dying tree without a leaf;
barren branches bland reaching skyward in drab brown -
doomful gloom, I ache...

Jane was renown for her very short fuse

   'Specially when she was sozzled with booze

      She relished a barroom brawl

         And took on any and all

bedecked golden bride
golden goose for gruntled groom 
golden noose or life

~25 Jun 2016~

A commentary on the odious practice of demanding dowry from the bride's side in an arranged marriage still prevalent, though outlawed by law, which is often the cause of great harassment leading to...

In its whisperings and articulations 
A searchlight into that hidden recess
The bane of acquisitions 
Becomes the flight from humility
On which freedom rests 
Shall we render benefaction of such
Crude and insidious notions........

I have abandoned all my ships,
Just because I see stars.
That is when you caught my glimpse.
But I should recall
That since everything eventually dies,
Now, you are just a supernova's ashes.

(The strained stars
Are through the pain lane;
Slain in vain with seraphic darkness and darkened brightness...)

So, bring me...

Samson was known for strength and flowing mane

   He loved Delilah who became his bane

      Through many a bedroom schmooze

         She found the key to his ruse

I want fame and humility
I want war and I want peace
I want God and I want freedom
I want freedom and enslavment

I want to settle down, and keep moving
I sprint home and crawl to work
I'll eat my fill and then I'll starve
I will kill and I...

A jingle wrestling a tune
A tune
A tune
A wave just cracked 
A wave just cracked
 
A whole book full of notes 
A’ have! -How about that? Art imitates 

And 
And in my face
And in my face was this beautiful
And in my face was this beautiful painting...

Minus adverse side effects
courtesy Ropinirole HCL
couple nights I did try,
albeit yours truly wanted to die,
plus also yearned tubby
among grrrrrreat full dead, no lie,

yes absent asthenia, fatigue,
and/or malaise oh my
nausea, vomiting, somnolence, dizziness,
and asthenic condition,
I woefully did decry
unconsciously kicking,

thrashing, twitching, wife kvetching
downing aforementioned medication
found me awry
beseeching...

I can accomplish nothing,
I can be broken, shattered and torn.

I am only a human being.

I can achieve anything,
because of my heart, my mind and my soul.

I am a human being.

I may feel the warmth of love,
sure to suffer the cold of pain.

I will lose, but...

The bane of able men, is a blind, deaf and crippled world,
Lacking in discernment, decorum and sincerity,
Wanting genuine gratitude, profound wisdom and propriety,
Choking on complacency, and adrift in a sea of avarice,
Void of foresight, and ignorant of looming calamity,
Full of men greedy for mere gain--like...

A ferryman weeps at the passing of time,
No more shall the hustle of feet fill his dock.
His worth is now waning in industry's prime,
His bane, a behemoth of metal and rock.

Walking on water the wayfarers mock,
His emptying vessel, alone on the bank.
Till memories spun with...

Beyond the hills, the storm,
oh, yellow queens they quake;
poor Autumn aspens feel
old weight of weakened leaves
the hostile winds will steal.

Beyond the hills the storm
it brews, like coffee black.
A bitter sky will fall
—dainty saintly sunlight 
a martyr for the squall…

Beyond the hills the storm!
My dreams in...
