Best Consuming Poems

Hate is a consuming thing
And it makes the emotions king
Body and soul bound by evil 
In a constant state of upheaval 

And I fell into a whole lot of hate
At my mind, soul, and spirit it ate
And it burned, burned, burned~~
that evil
And it burned, burned,...

Potion number nine to six mixing instincts 
Primitive passion possessed bodies boiling points
Love consuming lust traversing together past trust
Tangled hands mingle with talon arms lengthening lost time
United legs step to cross paths at the same rate different lanes
Claiming bottomless renewed nights holding on tight
Tossed and...

She drives that wobbly car
Stacked to the roof with goods
Squalor taunts her thus far
As she hides under hoods

Her babe cries behind bags
Baubles of plastic sneer
Purpose chokes on ball gags
When spending serves to steer

Tears well in her bright eye
While she struggles with rent
How will her child...

I would happily drown within the sparkling pools of your eyes..
Your hair, damp, falling upon silken shoulder..
Our senses alive, afire..
My body craves your touch, velvet hands gripping..
The delicate curve of your breast presses against my chest..
Your mouth, hungry, inviting me to explore..
It is a feast...

I should write a poem of loathing
but this love is all consuming....

Consuming Failure


Pay heed the dancing chickens hot plate feet
lest you believe the music makes him strut
outrunning death by curried peppers sweet

the cooling of the iron his sole treat
keep moving to avoid the final cut
pay heed the dancing chickens hot plate feet

harsh tempo of perfections searing...

consuming grapes and pickles

dig deep 
passed the shovel 
filled with detritus
don’t whine about today 
tomorrow already eats the clock

ideas dance 
like sugar plum fairies
Through a head
cotton wool as Pooh’s
brain storms turn to chaos

ideas fade 
leaving tantalizing hints
of their greatness 
if they had been captured
like finches...

Do the flames from his tongue cause you to burn?
His words are an all consuming fire!
Placed within a book so that we may learn.

Humans are often lost in their desire.
There is a way they can be satisfied.
His words are an all consuming fire.

Through his sacrifice...

Oh, I have this inescapable preoccupation,
since a child wrapped in pleasing delusions and intense words;
I am haunted-  possessed with a single-minded fixation,
writing in solitude while listening to morning birds.

Since a child wrapped in pleasing delusions and intense words,
tormented and restless and sometimes a...

Questions
Like poison injected, coursing through my veins
Like soot inhaled, choking the air I breathe

Questions 
Like screaming, deafening in my ears
Like oiled cogs and gears, cranking in my head

Questions 
Like thick, enveloping fog, blurring my vision
Like a ravenous cancer, eating and spreading 

Questions
Like a metallic taste,...

forget your question mark,
 you have said enough already.

smoking in between complex gestures.

forget your gestures.

 i feel better about things that way.

 silent that is....

  there is no absurdity in silence no 
over indulgence or half filled jagged innuendo's.

 i dont think i like...

Adamu is missing here
He went a road all mortals go
Silence grace the missing space 
Igniting our heart throb

Unhurriedly death dragged air
Out of his craving nostrils
Leaving a speechless mould
For he tested positive
He had the consuming virus.

See Adamu,
Stiff, benumbed and deaf to comrade's call
Flying into a plane
From...

I'm stuck between you and a wall
that blocks out all the whole world knows
We consume each others words with
reason to survive on each others mind

I blame myself for forever being
stuck on that night
While dark skies were humble
spitting out remains of what was right

Filled with reason...

Natural compassion,
like unnatural hate,
is left hemisphere teachable
and right hemisphere contagious.

Perhaps also like hate
(fortunately I know less about this 
journey in misfortune)
compassion cannot mature
through merely didactic reasoning,
words,
thoughts
devoid of healthy/pathological
safe/danger
anticipation/anxious feelings

Positive communication experience
commitment
predicts healthy integrity

Nurturing
and nutritional support

Nature's cooperative respite
into nondualistic yet spirited peace,
resonantly non-anxious safety
breathing light in
and...

All Consuming

They strip me down to expose my naked soul
To find the ugliness that has taken its control

With surgical precision they slice away the rot
Collecting the pieces to put in their melting pots

Surrounding the pot to smell the putrid stench
Salivating for just a taste of...
