Best Complexity Poems

Waves	
wander	
unrestrained	
far out to sea	
in impassioned mood 
relentlessly striving 
to discover the allure 	
of an elusive horizon.	
Undaunted I follow in their wake… 
A life fraught with the unpredictable.

In nature’s pool, away from the moon
jellyfish, those rose tinted wonders
of illuminated buoyancy, my ankles avoid
the terror of tentacles where a perfect
CocoCay day, would not be, to be stung.

In nature’s pool, absorbing the sun’s zeal
and sighting seagulls above the waterline.
I see, with my itty body...

There are some who live by fear
And there are those who live by love
Those who believe their perceptions
Should not be constrained or altered

There are some who think belief
Should be guided and dictated
They believe in the doctrines
Which relieve them of any responsibility

And all their laws and...

Look deep within the light my love
My gentle caring sleep
the song of nature drifts along
at times the wind is steep and strong

The heart a hollow empty song
the drain on life complete
but then from out of emptyness 
the song of love grows strong

The energy returning
you dance...

Raw human emotion is shown tonight
As the clock ticks in its hyperbole of time
The broken hands and frail hearts are left to fix this
But this call is nothing more then a dial tone
And life slips through her vulnerable fingertips
Tonight will be the last for this...

Lurking with its unbidden ghost
Behind every smile
We know

“ Let go ”

There was something
Somewhere
Once long ago
That even now we all remember

It call to us
From deep, so deep
Within the memories of our soul

“Let go ”

And we ache with the longing
So whispered
Within the ageless rivers of our lives

To...

Reach out 
Beyond the clouds
Reach out
Into the stars

THIS IS YOU

Part of it all
Stretch your imagination
Into the reality
Hold the galaxies
See them
Feel them
All

UNIVERSAL

THIS IS YOU

Push yourself
Past
The confines
Of your gravity

Beyond the clouds

And into eternity

Do you see it

Do you

THIS IS YOU...

An approach with a light tease
gentle flows with some comedy lease
but it results to an insulting miss.

Another chance well prepared in the bakery
the last receiving a personal pardon
but blunt attitude slaps the gesture.

Pride mocks at perseverance
reputation suffering from situational itches
but this story is yet to...

The theory of opposite complexity:
So he came into existence.
THE END

No, it's the beginning,
but all the same.

A part of my living soul
...sub-conscious matter...
We have never been separated

Insane hindsight bias
Psycho! Freak!
Fire, painstakingly profound
M I S I N T E R P R E T A T I...

Your hair is dark, 
Your stature petite
If your beauty was my opponent
I would already concede defeat

Smooth and soft, 
Silk is what describes you
To describe your skin, 
I couldn't do it in a haiku

The reason being 
Your beauty is divine
Delve into fantasy 
Wishing you were mine

Soaring...

What creed are we following? 
How do I know who is behind 
Humiliating manipulations? 
The creed I know is sad; 
White, black, pale and brown 
Short, tall, rich and poor, 
Named after nations, beliefs, 
Religions and sectors. 
None is there whom you really 
Can call...

Her face,
Lipstick smudged on one side,
Lopsided blush,
Loose earring.

Humming a song as she goes,
Slower than it was written,
Squished into one octave,
Simple song, simple minded.

Folding laundry on a Saturday morning,
Watching the other machines and counting down the minutes,
Staring at the rotation of reds and blues.

Returning to an...

Goodbye Complexity

To cross the barrier of a complex character
To quiet simplicity.

The courage of a brave little flower,
Standing tall in icy snow;

A one-tooth babe chortling a morning smile
And giggling with delight;

Dew on my face as I take my place
With early strollers;

An easy chair and music’s fare
At...

Simple is the crux of good design
Yet complexity is the path
One must follow to start with.
Only then is revealed
How to simplify,
Stripping away
The padding
To gist,
Crux

They wonder at my doubt
and laugh at my hesitation
-if they even care-
while they smile as if they understand the world.

Do they ever stop to consider
a feather floating by on the wind?
Can they tell me its weight,
the species of bird,
how long it's been separated,
where it's been,
or...
