Best Bizarrely Poems


Warmth of Breeze
Imagine me as a book covered with dust,
A soul whose warmth for years remained untouched

Letters on every page were ill-defined, unclear
The essence was hidden in an ambiguous fear

Uninterested I was in the societal rigmarole,
Me and my outer self were at opposite poles

Quite hesitant I was...

Venus Flytrap
You seduced and teased my yearning, with your succulent lure
A floral fragrance sumptuous and bizarrely pure,
You impaled and intoxicated my mind, with your corporeal charms
My impassioned heart, raced to your ominously parted arms!
You clasped me like an octopus, locked me in your iron embrace
Then I...

Premium Member St. Vitus Dance
The staccato stammering of bass guitars
punctuated the flash of strobe lights.
Limitless vistas of black and gray;
smothering the crowd in ghoulish poses.
Framed, as if frozen, in a glow of acid white.
Some stagger, their movements mimicking,
the rigors of death or birth?
Others jerk puppet like
upon invisible, randomly clipped,...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Apparently My Poetry Is a Pile of Bourgeois Crap
With a mag called POETRY, I spent time
Hoping to find verses sublime and sage
And for all I read, not two words that rhymed
Just chopped up prose splayed all over the page.

This left me just a little bit perplexed
So I decided to investigate
What I did find...

Salt and Pepper Shakers
There's this break room—
Where I work, of course—
That holds three microwaves,
one refrigerator, a stove,
and two vending machines.
All cannot be younger than
Five years at the earliest.
This break room is tiled
But rather dirty despite
Monthly scrubbing and mopping.
I and my coworkers—
Most Guatemalans and
Salvadorans, but there is a
Single Mexican—eat...

Premium Member Feel the Winter Coming
Autumn's moon truly radiant and full
in a stippled and rapture blue sailcloth
of inward bliss. How fragile is the troth
in nature's errs that's hurled into the pull?

Alter of light dramatize trembling leaves
drifting throughout on the gravel below.
Shadows cast across the ground in repose.
Silence surge as darkness...

Sorry
5/5/17



I know I've been tardy
Let my mom know, I'm sorry
Like 6 dogs said in "flossing"

I know I've been tardy
Let my mom know, I'm sorry
Like 6 dogs said in "flossing"

I know I've been tardy 
Let my mom know I'm sorry

Haven't always been thinking smartly
But rather bizarrely...

Clearly, You'Re Rude
You’re so insane and crazy when you talk to yourself
Feeling hazy in humid summer, overheating myself 
I feel like you keep talking my ears off till they bleed
I need you to back off…leave me alone…take heed!

I remember when we got along so well 
Right now,...

The Ballad of the Dry Rest Stops
Their dad had had a heart attack 
since they had seen him last.
In May they said, "Let's visit him,
cuz time's a passing fast."

He doesn't drive, he sold his car
so he'll not come to us.
and we can take some time off work 
without a lot of...

Have the Natural Tendency of a Benign Dictator
And yet Affleck’s Bruce Wayne is an arrogant bully whose disturbing sexual comments towards Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman mark him out as a man with a problematic moral compass. And did you swallow the bit where his realisation of a human connection with Superman (their...

Blue Mystic
On a blue mystic land

I landed bizarrely tonight

Fancied silhouettes and blue moon

Sparkling night, glowing in white

Witnessed, dark and tranquil earth

Blessed by illumination of full moon

That night still was dark, albeit I repeat,

It was blessed by full moon’s boon

 

Shadows of birds flew by under this...

Artistically Tragic
there's a bewildering flow
of muddled elements
a midst an enduring glow
of befuddled contents
               a character emerges
               with a...

Mean Mien Donald Trump
Former CIA Director
John Brennan scathing headlines
Washington Post op-ed sharply
published critical accusations

muted excoriation slams
Commander in Chief
volcanic blatant pathological lying
spews like lava his American

foreign policy boilerplate brazenly
bastardizes by banditry blueprint,
balefully balkanizing beautiful bracketed
booming brady bunch brand,

bests best-buy buffer braking balanced
bastion, bolstered beloved benighted
bequeathed bicameral bipartisan bliss,
Baptizing bacchanalian...

What Is This?
Some couples stroll round hand-in-hand
Just like we did so long ago,
Yet still I cannot understand
The fine line between friend and foe...

Sometimes the nights were so divine
We never wanted them to end,
And so you stayed for days at a time,
Never thinking you were more than a...

I’m getting  used  to  my  deprivation."    As this strangely odd conversation began I couldn’t  help but...
