Best Conspicuously Poems

Recital / free verse / Pride

Expectation rushes in
As her silent walk begins
All eyes staring
Watching for a hint of emotion
But none revealed
As she takes her place among the muses

No one breathes as her studious eyes
Examine the two-dimensional codes
Then silence breaks
As both hands spring into fantastical dance
On...

Addendum

The prerequisites have been established.
The requirements have been met.
The struggles have been suppressed.
The strife is the burden that coexists.
Now when it is time to make a transition,
We must not ignore that
The United States Constitution is in need of political activism or an addendum.
Revamping in form,...

Besides the hallowed covenant of The Way
 There is only one other univocal tenet I obey
  The human spirit is insuperable and indomitable
   Though it can wield an evil that is so abominable
   
Our essence is both distilled and defined

DRAW A LINE
By: William S. Labtis

To draw a line there must be a justification
As to divide takes a distinction/ qualification from
Like a demarcation line - what is yours not mine
Just be this line drawn with eloquence and purpose
From  post  to  post ,...

The Cowardice of the Taliban and The Silence of The Good Muslims.


When hot lead tears the flesh of a 14 year old girl,

ripping through her skull,
leaving her to bleed out and die,

does Allah not recoil in horror,

to see His child whimper,
to see His daughter cry.

Where...

Its silhouette is not quite clear
His eye balls look bigger than the socket,
The skin wrinkled like unkempt octogenarian,
Malnutrition is a perpetual visitor,
Ribs conspicuously bent and can be counted;
Head covered by thin skin making it shapeless;

The wind blows and becomes a foe to his face,
Different thoughts...

Love means unconditionally to me 
It never means conditionality 
Never down your neighbor’s leg should you pee 
Never use its rain as excuse, you see 
......... 
 
Contentious relationships will decay
Don’t just love your neighbor, love him today
Keep heart and home open consistently
To benefit most...

When Passion overwhelms



Passion my weakness that tends to overpower,
as if I am living only to nurture love and hover?
Logical thoughts beating and buzzing in head,
my biggest strength, words are better unsaid !
Heart full of love pumps into my farthest cell,
yearnings sizzling hot that refuse a...

The man of eloquence
With all the aptness of words
 And craft of speech 
Silently sits on the fence 
Holding his tongue tight 
And see the fun when tasteless
 Jokes being cracked upon 
The poor, weak and downtrodden.  


But the dumb knows 
Neither rest nor...

Andy meets Sandy
Sitting among the crowed of workers
Awaiting the arrival of his Excellency
The executive governor of the promise land
The promise keeper;	

I beheld angel, with a dark brown eyes
Conspicuously hidden among the crowd
I was overwhelmed by the beauty of her dark brown eyes
She looked so pretty...

I woke up one morning in a world full of lost things,
with no recollection of how i got there.
They curled around me and taunted me, examined me carefully with their hands so that they could better see me.
And when they found my ears they whispered...

Cockroach Soliloquy 
By:Judge Burdon

The cockroaches left me a wake up message
Written with saliva and excrement 
it was placed conspicuously  in a garbage can 
where they knew that I'd find it 
while in search of my morning nourishment
behind the Burger King on 3rd 
The dumpsters...

Polar Bear's Snowball in Hell


there's ten polar bears sitting on an iceberg
a few hundred years from now
their big brave eyes scared, resigned
conspicuously looking out at the horizon
proud once, now sad
the setting sun quickly vanishing, ominous
their lasting sun shine, darkening
their days numbered 
with condemned walls closing...

Meticulously Marvelous
My friend is meticulous
He handles everyone
With extreme care.
If you choose 
To follow Him
You'll be cured
From the blues
At any time 
You need Him
He's always there
He loves unconditionally
He has many followers
He handles the world's
Problems meticulously
Which much marvel
Than the comics
He came down 
Through 42
Generations
Conspicuously
Via the God the
Father...
