Best Claim Poems

Tonight, the rains gush down upon my life,
Like shards of glass they cut through every vein.
Your footsteps, plodding heavily with strife,
Regretful puddles echoing your pain.

To walk away can be the hardest thing,
When there’s no love requited left to claim.
Though better than to die amidst the...

In the middle of the night, you came, oh, death,
Wishing my soul to harvest
Vehemently, I refused to surrender it to you
Fact, that made you so angry.

You said your divine right was to claim it
But still, your request I turned down
It was then that you thought...

There are not for profit oligarchs
Amidst arms flooding minus any Ark
Noah saw such days of old
As he held Gods plan; on course as told
Billons swelll in roaring tides 
As ministerial figures, smooth the ride
Oppression is touted, as logic and truth
While cash in community is unclean;...

"Missing in Action" they claim you to be
As you fight the war for us to be free. 
We have sensed your presence, felt your pain
That you have suffered for our country's name.

We feel you are out there, still alive;
Some of you still alive. 
Only God...

Native, Liteskin, sun kissed
smiles
sit, talk, get to know me 
a while
for I am not my skin and 
even though the tan pigment
runs deep
I am my heart, thoughts
and actions,reflection of
company
I keep
A car accident took
my Homies brother this morning
and as we sit and talk to him
now, through...

She claimed her rights as a young lady
And in the coming years a woman
She don’t want to be an endangered species hunted by violence daily
She got rights too…she’s a human
Stand against this bliss
Gender Base Violence a sure diss
No more verbal abuse, emotional abuse or physical...

I'm boring through your ventricles
I'm being terribly invasive
My quiet warm breath 
Keeping measure and pace
         To such meticulous work
Fills your four chambers
         You don't feel one thing

Who claim to love but build walls of separation,
Do not understand the meaning of love, at all;
While persisting in false expressions of the meaning
Of love, they thrive on their own self-righteousness.

(A refuge of Lies)
Some men claim, to their own shame,
to know the American Constitution.
Then, oddly prefer, and wicked Judges concur,
in the innocent babies exclusion.

Yet, our inalienable right; the first one in sight,
is to life, that God has rendered.
Liberty, then happiness follow in process:
deny the first,...

I’m a glutton for love you know
Yet I’m a sucker for pain
Heart on my sleeve everywhere I go
Not wanting sustenance of refrain
Red on my palms entwined with another
Parading around like a stalking saint
Spreading the word to innocent lovers
In message of insight and finger-paint
Thrown into the...

Drained to my very heart by our slow-paced arrival, 
          I wander through tasteless decor to the metal arches

Can anyone call it any other name really at all?
Licking finger good, has been used in some form.
Anyone else has famous sayings, which never fall.
I myself really do not chicken either in calm or storm.
My wife loves chicken, made anyway except raw.

Chicken is one of...

Dang heart flutters, clutching at me...
little hard to catch my breath, these days
been running hard, feeling like I done gone
and run the marathon without training
They trying to tell me ... That I'm
Under the weather again... humpf.
They are telling me 
of all people -- to take...

People say they're ALONE, a state of living with no home
People say they're AFRAID, fear of living in the shade
People say they're UNWANTED, unchained but not haunted
People say they LOVE, but hide when push comes to shove
People say and do things to be ACCEPTED, and...
