Best Clownish Poems


Justin Thyme
Staring in the mirror when I'm down with these scissors I found. 
With my wrists out and prescription lids littered around. 
I've scribbled out a bitter letter in wicked accounts and written down twisted sentences in crimson. 
I drown in no bounds it got me...

why do you hate me?
why do you hit me?

Leaving Love Trash In the Past
I told myself to calm down-ish
Don't be annoyed by the clownish
Actions of your old ex
When he tried to show and flex
His muscles to other women
And the sweetness he is givin'
Trying to make your jealous heart
Start to cry and fall apart
Thinking he is being missed
His actions...

Life In Reverse

My journey’s ending where it first began,
a clownish act reversed in backward mode,
as brain cells scramble forth to read the code.  

Perhaps I need a comprehensive scan
before diminished cells embrace implode.
My journey’s ending where it first began,
a clownish act reversed in backward...

Premium Member Avalanche Preoccupied
I think I get it:
You want me to swallow your acidic avalanche.
Those billion frantic snow globes
of brilliant-clownish confusion.
You want me to rebuild your burned-out shrines. 
Atop broken blue glacial climbs.
Straddle boulders of swaybacked hope and jagged stones of regret. 
You wish me to inhale the...

Photos
They stand before me in uniform columns

A mixture of snapshots and Polaroids 

As testimony to the time of us

Each is a witness to a moment that was

When I clicked you into permanence

And sanctified an instant never to be denied

There is the shaded image of you...

(A Madrigal)

My journey’s ending where it first began,
a clownish act reversed in backward mode,
as brain cells scramble forth to read the code.  

Perhaps I need a comprehensive scan
before diminished cells embrace implode.
My journey’s ending where it first began,
a clownish act reversed in backward mode....

Angel In the Sky
An angel was elated
soared above the ground.
On a stifling populated
city he looked down.

Weightless in a blue sky
through a cloud he hustled.
On the southern side
knew well people’s bustle.

The image was dispersing
straight before my eyes.
By the air was urged on
reducing to a dust.

Presented in the bright Sun
like...

Of Asses and Burgers
A scarlet letter and a silent one
Transparent “A” on my forehead
Never seen, but you will know it’s there
Or see its effect, I can only fake it so long

Dad lives in a relative solitude; just what he prefers
Daughter’s got some of it too, much harder for...

Behind the Stars
Behind the stars, love's promises dwell,
Enduring through the passing years,
In Christ who guides the flight of tomorrow,
In a realm of life untouched by fears,

Laughter echoes with genuine delight,
No hoarseness betrays its grace,
No clownish words, no false insight,
Just pure joy, that manifests with peace,

Happiness springs from...

Evil, Guns, Cowardice, Stupidity, and Fear

is anybody out there?
does anyone really care?

seventeen innocent souls departed this earth
unexpectedly and tragically so whilst leaving
grieving loved ones, classmates, and friends
to wade through another mass-murder event

is anybody out there?
does anyone really care?

many clownish and dud politicians in Washington, DC
including...

Living In the Carnival Beyond the Greatest Show On Earth
Reach for heavens gate with your heart in your hand

Unlock the door with your love command

Stop by and get a kiss at the booth

Envelope your self on the ride of truth

Catch a smile from an angelic face

Enter a tent of mystery and not feel out...

Friendly Animals
Friendly Animals 

A flock of human like penguin stood on the icy shore, in the water 
sharks waited, but the birds had to catch food for their families.
One at the edge jumped into the water - actually it was pushed- 
and it survived mainly because...

Battle At the Hottest
all stars that bright doth beam
doth not always a-right accord
that moderate terminal destiny;

routes there be craft-fill'd & thorny
but shaft-fill'd with the happy soft ending
clownish & whimsical as ‘tis doomful;

o moderation oft maketh abortive
a warfare’s line of battle at the hottest
angle that would take its foe’s...

Sigh of Relief
Pushed up from stomach's abyssmal pit
Choked off cries, constraint deformed
Packed with panic's punches
Right here where words are formed
Throat cords tightly gripped
Resistance rules my holding back
While mouth stammers mind blown shock
Fear sped thoughts fly blindly
Wild-eyed in disconnected space
Beneath pain's radar, dead-ends faced
Cant find escape through tiny...
