Best Criminally Poems


My Creation

It's my created courthouse
The jury's reached a verdict
A sentence of familiar course
Against the criminally virgin
Guilty by association
I stand to face my trial
Innocent of all my charges
Accused by my empire

Out of seventy-two wishes
I've got one left
A hunger for escape grows
On an open shelf
Surrounded by my story
I have lost my soul
Upon an open world's edge
And endless and lonely road

It's my created jailhouse
A self-sufficient cell hall
Not a single bar in sight
Just cells of open gray-walls
Imprisoned by my own delusions
In cell one on dead block
With broken bones and dying faith
An executed man begins to walk

Out of seventy-two wishes
I've got one left
A hunger for escape grows
On an open shelf
Surrounded by my story
I have lost my own soul
Upon an open world's edge
And endless and lonely road

It's my created world
It's my created plague
It's my created punishment
For my created hate
It's my created nightmare
In my created sleep
It's my created six foot hole
Which was dug for only me

Romance In the Reflections of the Steely Green-Eyed

"Romance in the Reflections of the Steely Green-Eyed"



Romance is in the 
reflections of the
steely green-eyed

time stolen and framed
bars to freedom 
champagne dreams remain

the prisoner’s heart ignominious
kept safely in a treasure box
poetry lies laconic in the lap 

kept criminally magnanimous
a hand gently caresses 
a missing mind

pulling out unheard 
singular words 
famished and ravenous wings

flying off the transponding
power lines 
black-feather quilled

screaming 

a life sentence 
singular words 
sautéed in three lines

missing in milky moonlight
softly floats spectral 
room to room mute 

engaging the unaware
passing through 
all the eternal years 

damned alongside
all the voiceless hosts
tapping fingers like a ghost

S.O.S. morse code
on windows glassed over
lackadaisical and frosted cold

on the outside 

we dance Munch mime  
trapped in the 
History of a Wasted Mind

solitary and confined
'til death do us part
dark and stormy vilified

electric veined 
cold silver heart 
feigning tame 

kept on a dangling chain 
a pendant looping
like an aerial display

haunting blue sky’s

moth-life tiger coiled
sabre toothed 
calculating and refined

Romance is held hostage
in the reflections of 
the steely-green eyed

(LadyLabyrinth / 2021)

Premium Member Happy Birthday

Covid spread throughout the kingdom – 
the people inside the elite compounds,
if they heard the many sounds of the
ill falling dead, did not seem troubled,
not a single head – besides, it was, for
them a special day, 60th birthday of 
their consecrated God and his Queen, 
to whom all will homage pay – 

Politicians and Hollywood celebs alike
will take numbered turn fawning accolades
at the podium mike. Tables strategically set,
armed security carefully to vet every 
privileged guest before passing the Walled 
Castle-door, so not to allow Covid 
to take flight and soar, spreading deadly 
spore through the air – over His Majesty's 
Red-carpet-floor... 

There are plates with gold trim, not the 
painted kind – of Twenty-four Karat as their 
goblets of wine, precious silver from royal 
chambers, billionaire vaults, brimming over 
with champagne from prized cellars, vintage 
of all sorts, tribute paid by appeasing, complicit
European Courts, with thousand dollar a-bottle 
highly acclaimed ports. There will be classical 
music combined with White Shaming Hip Hop Rap –
diamonds and precious other gems abundantly given
for gifts, the nation having been well sapped, 
American's Treasury criminally tapped, 
for the king and queen's off-road treats – while
theft and murder rages in the commoner's streets – 
shortages developing to the point masses of 
people will soon have little food to break-bread 
and manage – to the ruling devils, simply 
collateral damage....

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry


Omission

Solid roots buried deep within the earth
Though a chimera
Far above the dense ground
High high above
Where there is no one else around
But down down below
To a place rarely talked about
Where everybody goes

To confront the darkness that lies within
Slowly eating away at our soul
Slowly devouring us all

A species as a whole

Will things ever change?
yes
For better or worse
The answer is unknown

Whether or not we choose to live life recklessly
We all endure our own kind of legacy 

Whether or not we choose to be seen
Is irrelative to our destiny 

Run from Fame
                    Ego
                       Arrogance
                          Radicalism
Carrying the restricted hatred of shame
With nothing of any true value to gain
Chasing satisfaction
In an immoral domain
Having the power to enthrall the criminally insane 
Having to always pretend to play this game

Hoping that it’s all a game

All from the same death set aflame
Burning ghosts of an iridescent pain

Praying that some sense of morality still remains

Premium Member Criminally Sane

I guess I once was a juvenile delinquent. Then I became an adult delinquent. Now I'm a middle age delinquent. Soon enough I'll be a senior citizen delinquent. When all is said and done and it is all over I'll just become a dead delinquent. Ha Ha.

Split Personality

Normally I am sober
Love to socialize
Never lose composure
Need no disguise

I am an IT engineer
I am a good husband
Clara my wife dear
Earns several thousand

We are a happy family
Except the deadly alter
As they say the insanity
Needs a strong halter

Whenever you humiliate me
The rebel will come up
Will bring out invariably
The beast in my soul-hub

And when the beast is out
To do something horrible
Irrational bloods shout
I am criminally terrible 

But the normal I has no memory
Of the monster in me
Nor the alter is aware
Of the others who accompany

This dissociation is disastrous
Psychiatry has no remedy
Psychotherapy is advantageous
For the disturbed chemistry

The broken home of my childhood
Haunts me in my dream
Both the identities in the darkness 
Are in full-throated scream

Doctors give me medicines
For anxiety and depression
Sending me in reticence
To tranquilize the elephant 


I don’t  know how long I will stay
With this miserable destiny
I am afraid one clouded day
I'll kill both of me

Premium Member Notes To Self On Poetry Writing

Hiya,  Bin doodling some  lines over the 
last few weeks, decided to post to see if 
anyone shares my way of thinking .


       Notes to Self on Poetry Writing 

                On the beginning
Is easy as the first line hit’s the page
Then comes the falters of the language rage
Inspired in a flash then blunts the brain  
That blots the copy, leaves a filthy stain
How maddening, this crazy convolute
Contrived to keep all fixed and absolute

               On the desire
For drama free, add, ad nauseam
No good was ever written by the glum
Nor happy hearts whom on fair wind would sail
Is needed more, to face uncertain gale
The chopping of the heart, the soul left bare
Live life and then return, with truth to share

                On content
Oh yes be sure, unburden of that load
That weighs so heavy going down life’s road
Take care to leave no mystery unturned
Written well, then pleasure you have earned
Be Narcissus, Venus, maybe even Thor
But  for PS sake, never be a bore      

                  On ending
Confetti words strewn like varnished rain
Be set in place, the hordes  to entertain
By chance alone, one mortal you may reach
That has not read a very similar speech
Then as the final dash and dot, be penned
Be wondering, do I write or I pretend      

              On reviews
Would Poe, his patience short, be long remain?
No doubt, of me would slate and scream disdain
Or Shakespeare, even in his lightest mood
Describe my efforts as, criminally crude
And Pope, be sitting there with shaking head
His thought, I write this comment but with dread

Hahaha, much like you are now I expect.

So Insanely Selfish and So Unaware You Don'T Yet Expect Other People To Care

I know it's not funny

What it is rather in fact

It's criminally sad

That someone in the first place

Could become or ever be

So full of their own self importance

Or so selfish and totally unaware

Let alone give a damn or care

To think so highly of themselves

That they didn't even realize

What they were or are

A spare of a spare 

And yet after all of that

And having been caught out

And exposed as both

A cold hearted charlatan, grifter and fraud

Still keep up the farcical pretence 

Of acting like and pretend playing the victim

No or is it any wonder then or why

Apart from themselves

Even their own supposed family

But not according to them

No longer even want 

Anything to do with the pair of them

Let alone them

Or anyone else

For that matter either

Couldn't happen to 2 nicer people

They truly seem to be soul mates

And deserve

One another 

Because in the end 

It's their own children

Who I genuinely feel sorry for 

Since you endlessly bang on about

Your problematic childhood

Because I hazard a guess

You have never given a single moments

To stop and 

Spare 

A thought for them 

As it's only and always evet been about

Ladies and Gentlemen
One and All

I hereby and present to you

Royal Pince Spare
&
Dutchess Entitlement Sparsely

Premium Member Not Criminally Responsible

Not criminally responsible

In a few seconds it was over, Tim never had a chance.
He was killed, decapitated actually. The police arrested the killer 
with Tim's head in hand. The trial judge ordered a psychiatric exam,
and it was determined that he (the killer) was schizophrenic, 
and at the time of the killing was experiencing a psychotic episode. 
The judge declared him to be NCR (Not criminally responsible) 
and ordered him to go to a medical facility for treatment for an 
undetermined time. After a few years, it was observed that the killer understood that he needed his medication to be able to live without 
being a danger to himself or to society in general. After eight years 
the killer was released back into the general population, under minimum supervision. Tim's mother was distraught at the news, and was rendered speechless. Was justice served?

Is Your Humanity Enough

How could it have felt before?
Before the implosion of the void
Countless years ago
Though its message plagues tomorrow 

It brings a sense of solitude
Only felt by the criminally insane 
Disparity drives desperation
That seizes humanity, deranged 

Vultures stalking 
Helpless prey, crippled 
Bleeding through its chains
That is no human! - They chant

It is a child’s toy. they mock 
Foolish enough to believe in luck
Yet not enough to give flesh up
In this prison, four walls is just enough 

we linger down on the stone 
Waiting for grace to fall down upon us
Waiting for a soul to trust
All the while, we will never cease to rust.

Responsibility Or Gullibility

IN  MODERATION
By: William S. Labtis

Anything….taken
in excess is wrong! 
Physically, morally or legally!
What may cause or uncaused  you
Un-ending  indigestion, detestation
 protestation , exhaustion or exhumation!
After that condemnation…is a word of caution!

We may take it lightly or seriously
Everything of anything maybe precariously
Must be inconsideration always
To a safety-net should  command
To seemingly good and blessedly
We must think twice and wisely
Look back for moderation as a demand.

Having dealt with in practice
Totally or wildly these earthly vices
Will surely become a  backfire.
In any ground, workplace or perchance
Omit or commit, the end is indeed the measure
In battlefields, too much is an extreme
Nothing is lost  than  yourself alone.

Next, coming  soon, live or let live
Everyday, every hour and every minute
Playfully, habitually, illegally or criminally
You may think the law dismiss or spare
What may be done uncommon or un-naturally
As the mean justify the end, automatically
As  the best judgment…is moderation!

Partake and indulge
Why not! But have we considered
There are other lives who wanted to live
By themselves, with you ,however, never cared
So much we have taken advantaged of
Disheartened and engaged with and prejudiced
Nothing in exchange for moderation

The best of times.
May have leisurely come
Grasped handily, nevertheless, having done
Against the  law of Heaven and man
Humanly physical. biological and environmental
    and material
But you have gone so far so fatal
Forgot moderation which could  have been 
    sweetly  natural must prevail.

Premium Member The Upsies and Downsies

Life is full of “upsies” and “downsies”

When your “upsies” outnumber your “downsies”

You'll know coz you'll go around singing all day

If the reverse is true, you'll bite your neighbour's dog

Also best to hide all the knives

Lock your medicine cabinet filled with pills

And throw the key down the sewer

You can't be held criminally responsible

For setting fires in the mall

Or running nekkid through the streets

Yelling, “I want my Mommy”

So here's wishing your “upsies” are winning the battle

It's actually been a while since I did that

So they say there's still hope for me!
