Best Bisected Poems
Don'T Ask Me About My EducationFrom time to time, people ask me
About my education.
Only then, I remember
I have no degrees or diplomas.
I attended no university either.
I hated textbooks and exams.
I still do.
That's bad education, they say.
But they don't know
I was taught by a book
No school could afford to teach from.
There...

Lend Me Your Ear
Easy to judge by what it seems to be,
More effort to immerse in what we hear.
Take time to talk, there is much more to me,
Before you tune me out, lend me your ear.
Estranged to yours my life seems to appear
Yet I laugh, love and struggle...

The Killing FieldsThe Killing Fields”
Stepping across these bodies
Makes me ill
Pools of blood stitched
In the soles of my shoes
Body parts dripping from
Walls where bullets passed
She went to school that day
Skipping and laughing along the way
Gunfire from hell
Unleashed in a fury...

A Wandering SoulA WANDERING SOUL
You dumped me into the lowest pit,
In its abyss and darkest depth,
You kept me permanently disjoined
From my closest friends and family,
My eyes are dim with grief!
From where I am laid now,
My parents will see me no more!
Look here, on my neck your daggers...

LinesI know each one, every line
My eyes trace them every day
From dawn’s light to dusk’s dark
One fascinates me, long, curved
It’s history hidden, for me to imagine, build a story
Bisected by others, short, shallow or deeper
Like stems of soft grass maybe
It lays there, reflects light, casts...

The Human Nature - WarSwords lay on the floor
As men fell to the dirt
Some, plunged through with spears
Some, sword impaled
Flies buzzing round gutted intestines
Made a feast of dead ones
Who suffered fatal blows
And had bellies rent open
Babies were snatched from Mothers’ arms
And bisected into equal halves.
With wild grins on...

The Setting of the Sun: Part TwoTommy Atkins was a good boy
grew to be a good man, good soldier,
packed up his troubles in an old kit bag and smiled
as his entrails blew out with aplomb;
he died as the black rain struck his slowly glazing eyes
good son, good husband, good father
left only...

Before I Die YoungMy parents were both cut in two,
my mother head to torso, laterally bisected
into equal parts, my father cut slightly off center
into unequal parts, his heart bisected, his head intact.
My parents were cut in two, as if
giant shards of sharp glass
were free falling in the universe.
She...

Strictly ForbiddenStrictly Forbidden
Have been writing poems and then waited
For your poets to soon become infatuated
With all of my poems each and every one
I will post to Poetry Soup when are done.
At first poems weren't completely perfected
Waiting for by Poetry Soupers to be bisected
Then super pooper dupers...

Skimming StonesLooking down I can see
so many different possibilities
wondering which I shall pick
and with it then what I shall see
smooth pink stone with pits of white
will it fit in my fingers just right
that I might flick it with the crack like a whip
to get the perfect...

I Lost MeI LOST ME
I escape out of myself today
I sneak out of my mind
I forgot the rhythms of my own heartbeats
I literally got lost in my own world
I think I have lost
My wings to fly
I think I can’t remember the
Tracks in the sky that leads...

Something ShiftedSomething shifted, in invisible space
Happening fortuitous, by Gods grace
Magnetic pulse from our palms transmitted
Energy divine, never abated
Outpouring gently, at an easy pace
Vibrant with bliss, its origin we trace
To the cave of our heart, our home, our base
Small miracles thus, mindfully detected
Something shifted
Enlivened by...
