Best Commands Poems
What Love commands the train fulfills,
The six thirty bounds to Coney Island
Where the green Ubers awaits the passengers
Morning greetings, (Urdu) of few words, were the
Pakistan, rules Mermaid Street with the neon green
Were too mama? where too, two dollars:
A repeat routine for most of us,
Whether you’re a morning person or a night owl, we all start our day at some point. And we all seem to start it differently. (Kevan Lee)
Five forty showers, get dress out the door before six a.m.
Grab the garbage, and walk three minutes to the subway,
where love commands the train fulfills, which lessened
My morning depression until midday, (who control whom)
Why was I born, why am even here, what is my personal worth?
Timeless question, who would remember me, when I am gone?
The train, the cabbies, would the streets miss my dragging feet?
Self-observation, is it worth a Newyork minute of whom will miss us. (really)
Void, void, void, void, void, void, void, and more void,
Just allowed the few that might to do some adjustments
For the sake of remembering me, for the sake of losing my car fare,
For the sake of not receiving, my monthly fees, and T-Mobile
you definitely would, release me from my grandfather plans:
Today, I sit in silence, away from all sounds, only the sounds
Of a keyboard, and my heartbeat, as the mouse goes click, click
For the sake of remembering is that a poet is only good at recollecting, reflecting, and making his audience believes in his words:

To Be A Poet, Oft Strong Commands Come At Night
Oh, gawd- comes raging middle of the night
This horrid current, rise up and now write
An electric jolt, firing through me bones
Of new fortress looming, huge granite stones
And that tingle surging from old waking soul
As pagan's carving of a totem pole
Words spilling out from a resistant heart
Pen and paper screaming, hurry let's start!
Stumbling amidst and across dim-lit room
Word flowing from life or else dreaded doom
Splash, splash as ink and paper newly wed
Old verses, that a spirited mind said
Some few flavored with Shakespearean awe
Other's cuttings from old lumberjack's saw!
And I, vessel to set these ravings down
Of love, a princess in her golden gown
Dancing slowing across a ballroom floor
One never knows what else comes through that door!
Robert J. Lindley, Nov. 2nd 1978
Rhyme,
( When Poetry Forces A Poet To Wake Up And Write )
Smile. Laugh. Why must you command yourself?
Dont cry. Dont show them your organs.
Its all a lie, isnt it?
The very fabrics of life.
Do they see pain upon your face?
Does the sadness seep through?
Tears crystalize in your eyes.
Your too brave to risk wiping them away,
and not brave enough to let them pour.
Blink them away.
Good, you follow commands.
Do you know how to be a leader?
Do you close your eyes and walk?
Trust me. Follow the sound of my voice.
Will i lead you safely? Dont be so sure.
We are all liars at our root.
Push your self forward.
This type of acrostic uses a phrase centered in the middle of the piece
as the focal point. The form is sometimes called a spine poem, as in the spine of a book.
In the beginning Almighty "GOD" created light and all that is good.
In quick response to his "COMMANDS" of many “Let there be’s”,
darkness is transformed to "THE" perfect place until man rebelled.
Not deterred God sent the "LIGHT" of the World, His Son, to impart
the exact image of Himself "TO" show again the excellence which
can be revealed as God’s "SHINE" kindles the spark of our faith.
Whenever He commands, I will obey...
devoutly drawing my plan today;
promising not to ever disobey,
or turn everything into disarray.
I will obey, whenever He commands me,
because He has made an instrument of me:
to bear witness and growing in faith daily;
I will soon climb the steps leading to eternity.
I will not hide whenever He seeks Abel, not Cain;
that thundering, echoing voice will be heard again,
reminding me that I must withstand any inflicted pain...
only divine love can free me from this heavy chain.

We in are in a time of darkness,
A season of sorrow and regret.
Like a great fish caught in a current
Rife with unexpected, opposing tides.
All are tossed ever farther
from lives all hoped to access.
Striving against this typhoon of violence
Perhaps our hope is bereft?
As this devouring night surrounds,
No egress to safely accessed.
Losing strength, all fight this unyielding tide.
Vainly seeking the shore.
Loss and grief are everywhere
With no light, they can find no haven.
They are lost within this black storm.
My Bride I have chosen you to be guideposts
Given a specific task to play.
In one hand hold high the gracious lamp
Filled with Holy Oil stored for this day.
Climb high upon the rocks
Light the wicks to combat war’s fray.
Now the Holy One commands the light stands to light!
Making the darkness fall away.
The path is narrow, the way is hard
“Bride of Christ, light your lamps
Save all that you can on this –
The End of Days!”
God’s promises are everlasting
Christ commanded us to not lose even one.
So, My Chosen, light the lanterns,
the Bridegroom’s feast awaits.
Everyone come along for the shower.
Let's dance together amidst the flower;
And devour Nature's power,
Whilst these tiny droplets descend the river.

God Commands Us To “Love One Another!”
In the body of Christ…
One of Satan’s “clever tricks.”
Is to “choose” another to form
their own “cliques.”
People “choosing” who they believe
is their sister or brother…
Neglecting the great command…
“Love one another!”
A stranger whom comes to church…
Has a hard time to find…
Someone who’ll give him just some of their time!
This person could be really in need
and possibly poor.
But after the service… He “hurries”
out the exit door…
Have we forgotten what being Christ’ child is?
We need to be HIS example in the way we live!
Maybe it’s time that the body of Christ
break out of it’s “shell.”
And really be concerned about those
on their way to hell!
If it’s people just like you whom
you seem to be “choosing.”
It’s you that will fall short of…
God’s love and are losing!
It’s time that the body of Christ
love everyone the same…
Remembering that it was for every
person our savior came!
By Jim Pemberton
The heavens open up and the lord's spirit.
Came down from heaven
Riding upon majestic clouds
Of fiery lightning bolts that showered the church
with glowing trails of shooting stars and streaks of comets
He then commanded the glowing rings of Saturn.
to come down anointing the sacred icons
with brightly shining halos
He then commanded the eternal flames of the sun.
to come down and light the holy candles
And he commanded the rocks from the sacred land.
to rise up one upon the other establishing his sacred altar
blessing us all.

ODE TO BE READ
ONCE UPON A TIME
BEFORE TIME
WRITTEN BY THE STARS
FOR HEARTS ENTWINED
BEFORE HEARTS DID BEAT
THERE WERE TWO WHO FELT THE HEAT
THAT IS THE MOMENT OF THE FIRST BEAT
BEAT SO STRONG
IT WILL NOT STOP
IT WILL NOT BE DENIED
IT IS IN THE AIR
CARRIED BY THE WIND AND CAPTURED SO FINE
HEAR THE DRUM OF THE STRETCHED SKIN
OVER THE ROUND HOLLOWED OUT CIRCULAR SOFT BONE WITH AN AGE OLD PATINA
SO FINE
SO SOFT
IN THE MIDST OF A ROUGH COURSE CHAOS OF EARTHLY DECADENT DECAY
THE ESSENCE OF AMORE BEATS ETERNAL

I played out my string,
I ran my race
My chaps are frayed,
but spurs in place
Still one horse to ride,
with saddle in hand
That last trail awaits,
—final sunset commands
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2017)
In my soft rind
light scars me blind
to fumble lost.
Invocations
from crushed nations
spew black exhaust
at rogue titans
while they frighten
to sell all Hell
made in China.
Our angina
compels farewell
prayers from devout
voices that shout
prophetic words
written by hand
to singe doom's brand
upon Earth's herds.
She tames the sky
She commands the clouds
They get their orders from her
They do as she says
Does she rule by fear?
No
Does she rule by right?
No
Why do the clouds listen?
Because she is sassy, and confident.
And she is the first person to command them.
They think it is great.
