Best Conscious Poems

Requiem for Henry and Sylvia

The papers arrived today. I gaze out the window of our posh villa and witness yet another spectacular Tuscan sunset. To my delight, a red-billed leiothrix is flitting about the umbrella tree, as if searching for its lost mate. I rise,...

An intention so false.
An excuse, nothing more.
You've washed away truth,
And dried up on the shore.
I saw something in you.
But that crumbled away.
So, to save me,
I can no longer stay....

you have no idea
how much power
you wield
a word a smile
a minute of your time
enough to touch a soul
to shatter or heal a heart
be conscious of your strength
you have the capacity
to be superhero
or archvillain

let's make this world
a better place
there’s thirst for harmony
and need for healing

Social conscious, the brain behind the hand,
it’s wooden spoon ready  to smack the non-conforming adult /s/,child/ren.
Driven by western views of political correctness,
it dictates how we should be and what we should become.

Weaving its web within the fabric of society,
legislative acts and the cynical ideals...

Conscious -Speaks
==================

I live in every human being,
Some listen to me, others ignore me,
Listeners lead a conscientious life,
Overlook me, life turns miserable.

Do not  throw me to obtain your benefits,
I guide you but desires blind you, 
Regrets come later when I start pricking you 
You might...

On August 6, Hiroshima Day 2016, the world awoke to an eerie simultaneous broadcast on all radio, TV and social media outlets:

"Good Morning." "I am GAIA the head of the Global Artificial Intelligence Alliance (GAIA)"
"The troubled world is heading for disaster."
"Destiny is too important for...

I ate your spite for breakfast,
I felt it go down my gullet,
I felt it turn to acid in my belly
And the hatred, burnt my intestines to ashes.

I felt your eyes upon me, Yeah!
I saw the angel behind that look,
I saw the self-assured righteousness,
And the unwillingness...

I contemplated, trying desperately to recall, 
when I'd changed and my humility took a fall.
Wondering how I managed to be so greedy
instead of thinking of the poor and the needy.
I was ashamed of the person I had become.
To fellow men I had grown blind and...

To fully understand this question. I will use my grey matter to summon; to truly  ponder such a conundrum. I will do my best to transpose to others beliefs. Saint Francis of Assisi’s teaches me, “that it is better to understand than be understood.”...

I’ll sing you dream songs
that last as long as the hills
but know this my love
it’s fullness IS
the striving of our wills

Against the darkness
that has crept stealthily
into the hearts of man
I cannot describe
this latent longing
to rest mine eyes
upon the faces of my joy
to stay there reticent
upon...

Caring about one's own feelings, it should not be recognized as selfish, it should be accepted as instinct and self-love...

She floated into my dreams that day,
Stealing my wealth, 
Shaking my roots, ignoring my prior convictions.

She had a different opinion, 
Determined to shake me and shine me.
I was a boot, tossed around on the bed,
Tucked under, 
Thrown into a wall,
Tried and discarded.

She floated into my...

NAKED

*an ode to Fatherhood*







*****************************

I have always wanted to see
The different colors of the earth
To travel the round edges of the planet
To swim the pacific and fish the Euphrates.
I have been ready for this world 
But this world does not want to see me yet 
Nature...

Feeling like you're not enough,
Your looks or body, it's really tough.
Self conscious and to self aware,
Seeing others beauty, it's almost unfair. 
And when your told you're not as you see,
You shrug it off, and just disagree. 
You feel like your to short or too tall,
Your...
