Best Cacophony Poems

Pinning chests like puffins to project
      fuzzy assertion,
      huddled, brave foragers
chase the crumbs along the
      stained ground,

flapping feathers of civility during
      auspicious climbs and
      daft plummets, swooping in
massive waves of perplexed flesh
      until frenzied,

shifting and undulating in rage like a
      storm of hungry nerves
      all darting with beaks coiled
in panicked alarm: no longer just a
      severe warning....

Caught in a full on dog fight 
already grabbed by the throat
cacophony of growling 
orbiting through my mind
playing a dangerous game 
here we go again 
overthinking, shouting 
nothing nice to say 
yet I sit here, silence screaming....

In a space that should hum with focus,
Where thoughts flow like ink on paper,
I walk the halls, and what do I hear?
The clatter of egos—loud, brash,
A symphony of insecurity,
Each voice a drum pounding louder,
Drowning out the quiet rhythm of real productivity.

Oh, the harshness of noise!
Your chatter like chainsaws,
Hacking away the sweet silence,
The sanctuary where ideas...

I ponder why my soul is thus,
Why must I scream to be heard,
Why do I feel remorseful after speaking,
Why does home not feel like home despite their words?

My parents declare their love for me,
Yet I still believe I'm the issue,
Why do my siblings think only I'm causing them discomfort,
Why do I still feel embarrassed after...

Everybody's talkin'

Breaking, bashing, creaking, crashing 
Pandemonic pounding pain
Reverberating bone to brain
Slamming, smashing, thrumming, thrashing
Mechanical chaotic grate
Echoing; can't concentrate

Scraping, scarring, jangling jarring
Bastard, broken beat becomes
Endless, dreadful demon drums
Maiming, marring, ringing, roaring 
Blaring banging babel beats
Repeats, repeats, repeats, repeats...

 wheatfield shimmering
those discordant raucous crows

Hey Hey Hey Hey

 
Come Listen to what I say.


Listen to my Cacophony of truths that burns even the roots of foundation.
From our Nations Heart we wish for a different part.
 

Let's give this a kick start.
You know your part yea you play the shark.
preying on the weak.
With a global Policy that lets you police...

To finish her work and to honour my love
who now dwells forever in heaven above
It’s something that I am committed to do
to bring her invention to each one of you

She worked for a doctorate and a degree
to be the inventor she so longed to be
To bring forth the tiniest sounds to our ears
the sounds of...

nocturnal, astute
               sky somber dark, moon eerie
                        cacophony shocks

I smell fresh light wafting 
near this dissolving darkness

I hear its faint ringing
the second hand ticking
while the refrigerator hums

and the distant driver drones

I tensely anticipate 
the first tweet to ripple the silence
a tentative answer
an assertive reply
a confident rejoinder,
the ensuing cacophony of chirps

and
the distant driver cross fading 
into the morning commute.

So
right now
in the warmth
of this darkness

before

Cheer compels choice
Play parcels poise
Vouch vacuum voice


Sit simply still
Welcome wise will
Notice nice nil


Dream dance drills dose
Clever charms close
Play picture pose


Freeze-frame fluid feel
Dance dizzy deals
Hidden hope heals


Live love lively
Bear boom brightly
Trace touch tightly


Frame focus fine
Niche nurtures nine
See sacred signs


Mystic minds meet
Glory grace greets
Sweet-sour streets

Thoughts can be blurry and empty.
paper on an easel, a whirlpool on a sheet
letting emotions explode into poetry,
explores the realm of cryptical and mystery
Crafting verbal art saps one's inventiveness.

I wrapped my body with a tattered velarium.
My shades can't even pass the litmus trial.
I stand without ignominy.
I am the one who folded my halcyon tripod.

My soul...

CACOPHONY
noisy, disconnected
annoying, blaring, irritating
noise, discord; harmony, musicality
tuning, pleasing, relaxing
enjoyable, coherent

It's always a cacophonous crowd
That speaks out loud
When India loses a match
Or a fielder misses a catch
There are over three billion analysts
Who vehemently argue with raised fists
They talk about batting order blunder
Or announce sudden change of player asunder
Many find faults with the coach
And with impunity his private area encroach
"Players are not in form" someone shouts
And...
