Best Centered Poems


Premium Member Centered
the piano strings that thread 
the telephone poles
just outside where i reside
hum a stale tune through the clouded air
exit 
a horrid sound 
fills black 
the evil heart

i fear their poisoned blood
will flood 
the terrain 
of an already ailing world

and you know 
it is the vulnerable...

Premium Member Self Centered Diabolical Scarlet O'Hara
Fiddle Dee Dee Scarlet says when asked to nap with the other girls
I want to party she argues, dancing with her feet, her hair in curls
She sneaks down to where the men are and takes Ashley off
Expressing her love which is rebuffed, she hears a...

Self-Centered
“Do you see any leg wound, my friend
I feel some pain, see drops of blood -
the road we passed was stained.” The horse
asked the cat, who detests blood or mud.

“I don’t know,” answered the cat, nestled cozily
in a bag strapped on the horse’s back.
“I didn't...

Premium Member Always Centered On You
Your significance in every chapter of me goes beyond
the wonderful art of a creator or the expectations from a deity.
I feel your fatherly soft palms on my waiting back
like a child in need of a superior support.
Such favour you render is like a broad road
with...

Selfish and Self-Centered
Why people are selfish,
why people are stylish,

Why they are on high tower,
Is that because of useless power,

Whenever their mind is gonna be wash,
They usually interrupt and say Gosh!

Dirtiness has stuck on their minds in big chain,
whom high power detergents could also n't strain....

My Centered Truth
These tendered times and varied virtues
Are changing the moral and meaningful issues.
No easy smiles or hellos to be given
To all the ones who need hope to be in them.
We hide and we scheme, we cover our faces
While blocking the people who are in our places.
Self...

Can Be Conceited and Self Centered
should have spent more time
with dear ones that I do love
meant so much to me

can be conceited
is way that they want to be
meets their own purpose

do put pills in drawer
will not spill them anymore
know what they are for


had been deep in doubt
so brought whole bottle...

While pondering
The yin and yang
Balance of Chi
Centered within…
Harmoniously...

Self Centered Greed
4/24/24


I've played plenty
On my conscious life weighed heavy
I have to stay ready
Then aim steady
Obstacles I will face many
Can't give ground or let them take any
These snakes pesky
Often they petty
Life can get way deadly
One big crazy medley
That sometimes became sketchy
After turning strange and messy

When it all...

Premium Member Christ-Centered Character
Compassionate with confident charity’s call
Concerned for clear Christian conversion cause
Committed to Christ’s cross, cleaving to His covenant 
Cooperative along congregation’s counseling clamor
Circumspect to correct compromises’ conveniences
Courageous, contending against carnality-challenge
Cheering the cross-carriers, crowned cavaliers of the Creator
Comforting, caring for the chastised, crying for clemency chances
Creating conformity...

Premium Member Self Centered Tranquility
Inside of our embryonic bubble, 
immune from outsiders trouble 
Blissfully detached, so unaware 
without any single, worldly care
Permanent ecstatic, numb state 
contented, equilibrious, sedate 

Seemingly impossible, extreme 
I can barely, realize in a dream 
Perhaps zoned out, on cocaine 
goofing off, to Nirvana’s Cobain 
Serotonin’s,...

Premium Member Centered
Kyto dreams of pleasant scenes of art on every breeze
no shape is formed or site is born without an artist's tease.
Each form has a function Sullivan said, yet beauty can't be denied.
So make each form new beauty born and raise each to the sky.
Take your...

Premium Member Be Kind Anyway-Tribute To Mother Theresa
People are often unreasonable 
And self-centered 
Forgive them any way
If you are kind people may
Accuse  you of ulterior motives
Be kind any way
If you are honest people 
May cheat you
Be honest anyway 
If you find happiness people 
May be jealous 
Be happy anyway
The good you...

Premium Member Being With a Non Listening Talker
Talking. Talking. Talking. At first it is fun, maybe even entertaining.
You are not sure exactly sure when it turns, but it does.
Suddenly the monopolizer’s ramblings no longer seem charming.
Patience worn thin, you try a few times to interject a word.
There is no pause, no break....
