Best Clothing Poems

I listen to the sighing
of the wind, as I sit
in the cool shade 
of a sprawling carob tree,
wondering if Basho,
in heavenly abode, 
next to Elysian Fields,
is mumbling agitatedly
under his breath – possibly
grimaces, wrings his hands
as he flips the pages of
vain anthologies where
writers sell their wares…
Stuck...

Skating fingers criss-cross, glide down my neck;
Under my clothing feel free to check
For a zipper, a button - my body serene,
It’s far beneath my skin the treasure unseen.

Why do you fumble and why with such need
Do you remove all my clothing longing to see
Bare hips...

He masquerades as an angel of light
That's who the devil is
So be very, very careful
He will betray you with a kiss.

He walks around like a roaring lion
To devour you for himself
He'll tempt you with all kinds of riches
And promise you much wealth.

The devil wants to...

He came a-lurking through the grass to lie in wait to strike.
While shepherds round their sheep in line, both young and old alike.
“I’ll eat you boy, I’ll eat you whole, your wool will be my mane,”
“And then I’ll move among your flock” the Viper said...

Uncontrolled lustful defiling, dirty and inciting
The profaning of holy sanctuary
Wolves amongst gentle lambs 
The greedy and money hungry

The un-sharing and un-caring
Deceitful with, 10% truth and 90% untruths.
These are itching ear promoters, abusers and users.
If the money were gone, they would be gone also....

Be vigilant, my beautiful friend
Love me continually until the end
My precious dove, my love
Our love is from heaven above

Our love is from heaven above, despite the hardships
Ambitious to start anew and start to kiss your lips
I long to belong,
So I wrote this song

I lay my...

He shines with light    a sheep they say 
they never see him the same way 
his children see him everyday 
  
dripping, snarling, heavily 
he will not show us sympathy 
  
to see a beast so shrewd revealed 
layer by...

Dreamt last night I was king of a land
A paradise filled with gorgeous women and men
Sunshine galore
Couldn't ask for more
Decreed in an edict, all clothing was banned...

"Fattening up time" the wall calendar read
which meant only one thing to old farmer Ted

Christmas was coming and there's money to be made
you see the bigger the bird the more he'd be paid

He'd saved up all year and bought high quality feed
to ensure that his flock...

My spirit becomes one with my words
Standing without shame - dancing together with my soul
Even though my heart…
Walks upon soil that bathes my feet with tears
Searching for leaves to dry and clothe my soul
With her silken wraps of greene' 


I kneel my heart upon Earth’s...

Slicing through this heart of their matter ? Said the mad hatter..
Giants causeway; going to view a rare as of late movie bits in, escapism
American Hustle it's title given and two facts for myself parted these curtains
Unto another motion picture's canvas: Amy Adams Bradly Cooper...

A sheep in wolf's clothing is what stands out here.
A character of loathing and hiding behind fear.
Look at Ann Coulter who is afraid to leave home.
Because of things she has said, brought it on her own.


Through tweets they display a...

we found shelter 
the warm rain fell 
the shepherds in the field
pride before the fall
everyone listens 
but nobody hears
stand before the crowds
venom sprayed 
and laughs out loud
pride before the fall 
he is held just above 
knows the write words
for he knows all 
pride before the...

I was first picked up
In a cast-off shop in Liverpool; 
Surrounded by racks of seasoned shirts
Bearing names of old soldiers.

“Draper” draped on an immature frame
In a collage of brown and green, 
Overlapping and enveloping
Any semblance of a past self.

Baby-faced and militant,
The paradoxical camo in an...

I see it more and more as Fall comes in,
the fabric fears not the chill or wind,
often brushed and soft, like a blanket’s grasp,
and for many years a good one with last.
Whether it be Black Watch or Buffalo Check,
there’re a thousand patterns, what will be...
