Best Careless Poems

I have Dreams
		I have Goals
		I have a Life
		I have a Cause
		I am Here for a Reason

		I fear my life will be taken away
		By a careless man
		I fear I'll become part of the 97% too soon
		I fear I might die with my legs open and a...

I slept
full of hope and dreams
I awoke 
empty and forgotten
Careless as I was back then

Morning sounds
swirling in my ears
Pointless thoughts
filling my head

"She can."
but will she ever again
"She is."
though no longer for me

I stood
alone and stiff
I walked
slow and without purpose
Careless as I was back then

The smell...

CARELESS
---------------
Possess my eyes to see
But nothing draws attention
Possess my ears to hear
But in them enters no sound
Possess my mind to think
But in it rests no thought
Possess my mouth to speak
But muteness mounds my voice
Possess my hands to give
But high they hover the air
Possess two shoulders...

Blake found a webpage on the internet
Smiling at wife, "this will be fun, I bet"
Wife grudgingly came along
Blake sang a fun little song
“How much trouble can we really get?”

“It will be grand…we can make our own wine”
“And honey”, Blake said, “It is about time”
So to...

Cavalier, mischievous am I 
who, with my rebellious bent
flaunt my freedom, yes, I despise 
the status quo, with a great
distaste for the all the rules.
To keep the letter of the law
is oh so boring, oh so dull.
It stifles creativity and expression
what use is it, say...

I opened the top drawer of my mind
and carelessly took out some words.
I threw them about with little thought
of where or on whom they might land.

Many bounced when they hit becoming scattered and lost;
Some stuck like burrs holding fast where they fell;
A few jabbed like...

SCENES OF A CARELESS BOYHOOD

The sound of water,escaping dams
willows,old rotten planks,slimy
posts,brickwork,old timber props
wet ditches,sedges and silvery nets
towpaths without gates,horses that
tow barges collared with crimson fringe.

Wheat and thatched cottages and cornstacks
grasses in flower,bogrush bulrush and
teazle,so tall.Bindweed,wild carrot,
hemlock in bloom,cow parsley,plantain 
bramble in June.
Poppy,thistle mallow
and hop.Purple heath,hills...

For years your soul's been weeping
Wondering lands so cold and and dark
searching for the pieces
Of an angels broken heart
Two careless words were spoken
Which tore your life apart
 
So running to your mother
To beg that it's not true
Five crying words from trembled lips
Do I belong to...

I'm nervous and careless, I'm sad and mad.
It'll be what it will be.
Because it is what it is.
Nervous and careless, sad and mad.

My belly tight, it hurts real bad.
My heart beats fast, i feel it in my hand.
The loss in my eyes, like a deer...

By the flowing stream,
she recites poetry to him-
He could not care less....

This day the morning has not spoken
Cradled in earthly arms life remains still,
The great peace the east promised broken

After the raging fire an ice age chill,
The sky a blanket of radiation
Beyond logic a universal kill.

God looks down upon his creation,
History briefs many warnings of war
While...

People tell rumours
Because they have bad motives 
They're jealous
They snatch from others
They're greedy
They're overbearing
They're mischievous
But I tell only because I'm careless
I'm simple, straight forward
I believe my senses
I believe what I see 
And so people pretend to be friendly
I believe what I listen 
And so people...

And he said unto them, If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.Judges 14:18b


They plowed with the heifer, 
A stranger of a day,
assigned from the pit,
to bring a Samson down.
She feigned false affiance,
with a mission so deliberate, 
trans-versing...

Dangling on a string in his underwear
Looking ridiculous and without flair
Tempting fate on a simple silly dare
Without a hint of worry or a care
Blissfully too ignorant to beware
Lest he falls flat on his fat derriere
Can he be so dumb blindly unaware
So quickly thrills can mutate...

When it's my time to go
Could you hold me till I'm gone
When it's my time to go
Could you forget what I've done wrong
When it's my time to go
And my eyes forever close
Don't you cry for me
I don't need the sympathy
But when the time is here
And...
