Best Choke Poems


Choke Hold
Your fingers begin their release
pinkie, palm, to thumb.
The sensation lingers on my skin.
My knees week, body numb.

The indentation around my neck,
it is starting to bruise.
A shade of yellow appears.
Slowly, a green, purple, and blue.

I fall to my knees
kicked while I try to stand.
I slowly raise...

Choke My Womb
choke my womb
with your
toddlerd
thoughts
catch my breath
as you watch
my words
rot
run
like
coward
yellowd belly fled
glimpses
of
word in head
freelance riddler'ing
middle-class pauper-erity
heathens featherd features
eons beyond fleas on the dog
love me again beyond all wrong
slaughter another hotter hatter
make me mad'der than a mat
lay me under flying on rug
give me vital fetal hugs
touching my...

Stab, Choke, Torture, Shoot To Kill
The rage that screams against the sky 
A battle ground of angry hate 
Death's anger looms; threat reaches high 
The rage that screams against the sky 
A voice it struggles to deny 
The venom 'fore it spews too late 
The rage that screams against the...

Just about to launch a new career

Or maybe I should call it a hobby

Dani Spies has certainly caught my attention

With her mouth watering recipes

And easy step-by-step videos to help us along

I'm drooling all over the keyboard as I type

I'm always game to try something new

And...

A Hearty Choke
She awakes each day to it.
She ate it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
She bathed in it.
She let it wrap it's postulating arms around her.
She made love to it.
She lovingly cursed it, and then realized it's tangible effects on her.
She'll forever remember the start of it.
It...

Premium Member The Choke - a True Story
Sitting alone in the locker room
My eyes still filled with tears
As I choked in the championship
In my high school senior year

Winning the wrestling match
By a score of 8 to 2
Already thinking of the first place plaque
And with it what I would do

Only 15 seconds left...

Stress Choke
I woke up choked up
could not breathe 
felt like I have to heave 
throwing up everyday
like its a pet peeve 
angst choking in my sleep
from the food I eat 
stress causing sleep lock 
gives me the creeps
the sheep flock 
like a new drug 
on the...

The Heartbreak Choke
You dont see it coming

no one ever does

but its only a swallow away

so count them silently

and hold them dear

because the next one comin

you should fear

you will know when it comes

and know so clear

that this one coming

is your last

because heartbreak grabs you

hard around your throat

and there...

Choke!
Coughing up all of this blood
unable to utter a cry for help
laying here dying
is this going to be the end?

Have you ever loved me
did you ever mean that sweet-talk
every god damned kiss
those infernal love songs...

Or was it all a lie
a little story to get
exactly what...

Choke Point
CHOKE POINT

Our roads are at choke point 
as traffic descends into gridlock chaos. 
Cars, lorries, buses and vans 
all bumper to bumper in a traffic 
jam ten miles long. This is a vision 
of the technological world 
in which we live where both man 
and...

Written for my heart, my son, Kyle
Wash me gentle in the river –
	Ease me on down with care.
I’m an emotional giver –
	It’s my song in the air.
Dry me smooth upon shore’s sliver -
	Warm away my despair.

Constant tears are in my eyes,
but I’ll deny that I...

Peace of Cheese
Can you forget that piece of cheese
that you inhaled? Oh, just a crumb it was.
But breathing while chewing, then choking!
Was it Cheddar, Cheshire?

Or that Limburger, Parmesan?
But, oh, that piece of cheese!
Not a morsel you'll forget,
or a temporary amnesia that will bring you peace.

A double Gloucester,...

Water of Life
I
On this terrestrial ball
Water is it, almost all
But for prayer

II
When love blooms, we can fast
Avoid breakfast, any repast
But "whence such love"?

III
Prayer will consume private sins
Or Sins "will choke prayer,"
Wrote J.C. Ryle before dying (1900)

IV
When all is dark and I'm hopeless
Yet i pray (Thy will be...
