Best Cracking Up Poems
Cracking As Broken ToysPicking up my phone, the voice recalls my memories
Sweet talker across the line, hey... it's been a while
Days running, things change, here we are aloof in our boundaries
Trapped within our history, now we play the role of our guile
The way you speak is like negating...

Cracking the Mirror Each Timekeeps butting her head against the same mirror
it cracks and breaks finally
so she finds another one as close to it as possible
Same scenario,
Same scripts
Same arguments.
This mirror leaves too
Why do all the mirrors leave me? She asks.
The cat has no answers. Just glad to get...

Cracking Open Geodes of InsanityCracking open geodes
-- of insanity
a shimmering humanity...
Shining fractals of ones soul.
Opened and vulnerable
like a new seed.
Scintillating stars
gleam from within
with new needs sprouting
from each new seed....

This Earth Is CrackingIn USA,
There is a presidential election fight,
Well, everything seems to be alright,
It might be alright, everything seems tight,
Sometimes, I dream of a red sky,
The earth is cracking,
I'm slowly dancing
On your sweet love floor.
Turkey
Sends bombs for free into Syria, on...

I was struck by a bolt of lightning because I angered The Lord.
God is cracking down on people who break his Ten Commandments.

Horror Cracking ThroughWhen horror knocks on the door
Slips through the cracks and enters the body, mind, soul
Fast like an avalanche
Traveling at million speeds
It’s the same long forgotten nightmare
Every Breath
Every Whisper
Every Sound
Becomes too familiar
When falling hard to the cement
The shouts, the screams, the reminiscences
All comes too fast
Then...

Cracking ToneCome,
let me take you to Nigeria
for you to hear a faint echoes of corruption;
I will be your hearing ear for the night we
spend there-
When they ask you the time of change,
tell them the messiah shall come from the east
with a cup of wine and pieces...

Getting CrackingGetting Cracking
There are times when I want a tutor
So I can use my most cruddy computer
Which to me is often always complicated
And for hours on end have forever hated.
Made plans poorly and not really well-laid
In for another computer, wish I could trade
That was beyond belief...

I'M CrackingI'm cracking fast, and I don't know what to do
I'm watching myself fall apart, and I'm loseing control
Everything I once knew seems like a big lie
Every dream I once had has crumbled before my very eyes
It seems I have nothing left in life
All I can...

cracking the codepassword to open the heart forgotten
we wandered earth like a deluded ghost
then one day we became a child again
meaning innocence was then soul’s outpost
cleansed of stain, we broke free from ego’s chain
reclaiming light by God’s love begotten...
