Best Contused Poems

In their eyes a disingenuous dream, pertinacious pestilence in their stream,
Solitudes sanctioned in their scheme, sacrificial surrenders in their scream…
Hearts contused crippled and crushed, of their voices hindered and hushed,
Landscapes forgotten and flushed, bruised, and battled for death has brushed.

In their world, a cataclysmic crumble,...

On gossamer lips
Wisped coppery tendrils
Showering sparks
Riding evening breezes
That radiate off my
Eyelashes in papery
Wet slivers
Sticking only when
Your song of ill-boding
Is breathed over me
Its primitive amity
Contused and crusted
On baneful syllables
In sweet consummation
Where at last I see the
Crumbling bouquet
That’s falls
Onto your pages...

Along a winding country road
one autumn’s day of late,
I chanced upon an aged abode,
up a hill beyond a gate.

The house was old and quiet,
not a person 'neath its roof
but in a tree close by it
perched a bird, somewhat aloof.

It cawed and cawed audaciously
then quickly flew...

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Family secrets told 
Through your hearts spew

A white wild orchid
Bruised and stained with brown, 
Its virgin petals touched…. 
Emerging blooms will frown

Mama lily beat purple,
Her seedlings green;
Siblings often wonder - 
Why is he so mean?

As the wind carries seedlings 
Away...

 In the coffin lay your body silent and still
As with wax, sealed were your eyes
Bared of all passion, pain and strain
You were at rest, tranquil was your face
	
When your body was lowered into the grave
Tears trickled from our eyes like streams of blood
We stood...

Laura Loo's Poem: PART I- A child thinking about running away

Neglected…unprotected…
frayed from the inside
impaired…nobody cared…

I have no mother to nourish my unhealthy soul. My father
loved the bottle and the bruises combined with my mental 
wounds brought forth contused abrasions.
Free me, please, free...

I will admit to being confused
my face this morning, looks contused

I have  memory none of what went on
where I was or what  had on

I appear to be wearing womens’ clothes
and there’s something strange tickling my nose

Down below’s all intact, I checked before
with zealous...

When tears came out of my dour eyes,
In depth of faint soul and sobbing sighs,
All the cosmos here felt inutile,
Of rich hearted folk, but introversively futile,
Birds passed by me to revive a new hope,
Not to think of tieing new knots, a new rope,
I was lost,...

Fracture

The night has broken herself,
thinking of you.
Even now, 
no solace
for the fiery pocket of hate
that I hold in my fists
still burning.

I played the piano
side-by-side with her,
Easter Sunday
where no sun broke 
through
the ossuary 
you called our home.

She slumped upon my lap
suddenly,
like a grief poisoned,
and 
her eyes...

the wheels just thumped
a jazz beat

(and it woke me

from sleep- with my Lunch
Poems) that made me think
I was somewhere else
like the drug-
                   stores
that all look	  ...

Who is it that knocks on my door?
It is nearly midnight and not a single creature stirs about 
Yet, I hear a faint tapping of feet upon my cedar floor 
Assuredly, my mind lends to perception, a sense of doubt

Lo, a man stands before me
His...

he was not dumb 

but he struck his thumb

now he was dumb-struck

and screamed jolly good

his hand in plaster

and bad luck his master

he could not drive his truck


to bide his time

he drank some wine

set out to repair the computer

but there had been a looter

and thus without...

Cast Away And Close

Cast away on an island surrounded by seas far apart from
            my soul mate and lover I am now viciously dependent alone

Thanks ABELOPEZ!!! LOVE THIS ONE

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Family secrets told 
Through your hearts spew

A white wild orchid
Bruised and stained with brown, 
Its virgin petals touched…. 
Emerging blooms will frown

Mama lily beat purple,
Her seedlings green;
Siblings often wonder - 
Why is he so mean?

As the...

CONFUSED WORLD:... 
THIS IS ANDERSON WALKINGSHOES... 
VERSE 1:
The world's totally confused,
If you do right you're contused.
To and fro, they go back to the magoos. 
Their systems make no amuse,
It only dismantle laid down routes;
Leading souls to grab unexpected woes in demonic handbooks.
Holy spirit in me,...
