Best Bricks Poems

He is "half a bubble off of centre"
More than "A few bricks short of a load"
He is not a Prince worth kissing
He is more of an ugly toad.

Some think he is "Rock Solid"
A veritable "Mountain of a man"
Instead he's a snake Replacing a ladder
Nothing but...

“Do you like him?” She glances at the boy across the room with her lips curling into a small smile. The boy who managed to trigger her attention. But that smile of her, there’s something about that smile. It’s sincere yet it’s somehow sad. It’s...

Most go into a relationship protecting and guarding their heart
I do the opposite, mine is open wide right from the start
Others have built bricks around theirs, that have to be torn down
I slowly put up a layer each time a hurt makes me frown

With each...

	Six Feet = Three Bricks
	Written: by Tom Wright
	2/20/03
	
	On winters night our mom would coddle,
	keeping moppets warm was quite a trick.
	Two feet always got the hot water bottle,
	while the other six feet got heated bricks.
	
	Heated and sheathed before finding beds,
	neath quilts, that seemed in weight, tons.
	With...

are eagle things
it was noticed
that she didn't take a fall...
the wings in her back
were really God's call

" I was walking
in a very green field
when I saw a bald eagle
who presented a shield...
the lines were fine
and behind them revealed
a blanket of stars
and a riddle of sorts...

Rise high you tumbling bricks!

Consider exchanging
your scared squawks
for a few more plummeting
security stocks

City beware
of stealthy schemes
while chasing virtual creatures
in your local county park
for free

You never know
in "reality"
when truth might pierce
chilly hearts
once crocked eyes clear

Seeking top credit card scores...
dreading next month's
bank notices

Why not use them
to cleanse...

Sand water air natural parts of the earth,
making homes and many giving birth,
evolving rapidly over the years,
noticing the worlds new lethal tears,
in the sky new things would fly,
using computers to help us get by,
extinction could be a new revelation,
through out our dirty rotten nation,
give some...

A   BUTTERFLY   BLOWING   BUBBLES

I was catching bubbles in a butterfly net for beauty’s sake
Needless ‘tis to say sans any success
The second I secured one it would summarily break
And I left with but bubbles that burst to confess

First I was...

The Lights Reflects my Best Intentions
But Even I Don't Know What's Best Anymore

I Once Tried My Hand at Construction
Constructing a Place Where I Belong
Where I Can Fit
But Even I Can't Lift These Bricks Anymore

I Scream at my Default Setting
LIVE, LAUGH, CRY, SMILE
.......nothing..........

I Try Not To...

Building block of matter
S must be brave and strong
It is the start.It is the cart
To take to correct destination 
These need to be build up with 
Faith, Love, Want, Togetherness
Brick, Bricks, and House
With added cement, churning water
To make a house a home.

A barren paradise 
Paper parachutes
Bleed, I before we
Except after deaths
String of light suctions 
Screams captioned 
Vocalizing muffles
Fleas flee
Parasites sight 
Leaches beseech 
Conventions plateau
Wonted into winter 
Inept untaught cling
Polluting prospects 
Tasting achilles 
Oxidizing tongues
Clip urinating lips
Pressurizing knuckles 
To freeze ends mean
Of inks soap
Washing pluto pores 
Till...

noisy toys and building bricks
girls and boys in football kits
playground fights homework books
summer nights disprooving looks
growing pains and butterflies
test and gains that qualify
leaving school hunting work
breaking rules going berserk
frequenting pubs getting drunk
discover love and have a bunk
find a spouse and settle down
buy a house outside...

If your turning backs were bricks to this craving soul
And your eyes not meeting my searching little windows
Then this bed is a twin to China’s great wall.
Enveloped with scorching breeze
colossal reaching, unheard touches.

Where have all the blazes gone
In every skin-to-skin
In every passionate skim.

Has the apathetic...

When people love to criticize
Please do not stay there long
Quit that spot by being wise
Or else you may prove wrong

When your efforts are not lauded
Instead when they are attacked
Then, only agonies get added
Happiness can never be tracked

When only criticisms badly flow
And terrific opposition is there
To...

Higher and higher, 
brick by brick. 
Snapped together 
makes them stick.

Green on the bottom 
then blue, then red.
Add one more block,
take it down instead. 

Maybe a white one,
or maybe a black.
Who knows how high
I can make them stack?

When I am done, 
I will let you...
