Best Barraged Poems
Faces of Terrifying DemonsFaces of Terrifying Demons
Some look into the Demon dark
And are engulfed
Crushed and torn apart
These poor souls
Descend to the narcotic escapes
Or turn to face the world
In return
With violence, anger and hate
Or fall at last
In the suicidal ends of life
Some prefer never to look
At all
Into the...

The Loneliest Caterpiller-A Tale of BraveryOnce upon a time there lived a very small caterpillar. She was quite shy, meek, and timid of small crowds. She would even go out of her way to avoid confrontation with the other insects until one very important day. One day she saw danger...

Lost To the MemeThe masters of mad mountains,
the dark dwellers of deep,
the misty myth of memory
slips into soulless sleep.
The timeless, tangled tree-tops,
the perfect placid plains,
the eyes of heirs eternal,
now bore the barraged brain.
Amidst the active androids,
sharp, scintillating screens,
the lore of lasting legends
just melds to mindless memes…...

We Will Stand TogetherWe will stand together what a wonderful vocation,
despite the wars and conflicts in many of our nations.
We will stand together in these our days of need,
despite a world filled with power, envy, lust and greed.
We will stand together no matter what...

An Angel In DisguiseThe snow of winter has melted
Spring's warmth a golden touch
Freedom at the creek with the wash
Only through love can hurt be lifted
And if fear didn't flow awash
Of those many harsh words and such
A pensive mood her expression
Deep in thought 'bout her plight
Just a...

Paradoxical ThoughtI live in a box where I'm constantly barraged by a personal concoction of paradoxacle thoughts and it haunts me -
and at the cost of any and all of my previous notions,
I question my very existence
as a prawn in the shadow of an...

Living With the Hard of HearingHello can you hear me
Speaking louder is key
Make sure they see your lips
Talk slow and clear
TV is too loud
Barraged by too much sound
Silence cannot be achieved
Not even a thought can be perceived
Words misconceived
Offense received
Information missed
Miscommunication persist
Effects the young
Effects the old
Problem is ignored
Wishing their hearing was...

Feeling of FreedomClustered by the world into a cubicle fortress
a corporate seat in boundaries of white walls
daylight dreams fade into colors of sunset
in moonlit shadows, feeling of freedom calls
engulfed in darkness, night yearns for the sun
to explore beyond galaxies, to a new...

Our Future ImperiledThe Genie is now out of the bottle,
and referred to as ‘The Net’
Where hackers are countries unto themselves,
empowered worldwide—great threats
Able to intrude and disrupt at will,
weaving a new kind of hell
With privacy raped and freedom attacked,
—barraged, our future...

The VampressDeadly pumpkins, their harmonious hum
The rates that the goblins move is greater
When the skeletons come out never dumb
The neophyte, a devoted hater
Brought forth ideas of evil barraged
The rates that the goblins move is greater
Her neckline was sumptuous, with corsage
She was the vampress, taker of others...

Am I On Or Off TrackAm I On or Off Track
About train crash with questions were barraged
Do they think that it had been sabotaged?
So on tracks improvements may be made
While several lives away already did fade.
God, with all of your generous consideration
How could this have happened to our nation?
Those killed...

Freedom CostsPast decade decayed in a mist of crimson
Last barricade barraged to escape this prison
The Shades of grey flow through my faulty prism
Light betrays - plain sight - guards march me back to my chasm
Cleaning crew - white suits - red spatter
Leaning cruelly towards me -...

Where Sisters Go To TalkKnowing you as I do,
you entered the room shyly.
Saying nothing, you took a seat
next to your sister.
Then your ear homed in on the speaker.
You tried not to notice
some of the ladies paying
way too much attention to your blouse.
Sensing your insecurities,
your sister leaned into...
