Best Crumbled Poems

No other choice
        as my shadow schemes in the sand,
      lone cries on lovelorn wings give grief heart’s voice 
        over scorned wedding band.

It is here.

It is now.

It is
Because

These tantric dialects
Come
Undone

I taste the solstice of gray.

Foggy, silver-lined showers
Replenishment against elasticity's incomplete verb

Through whistling meadows of Nature’s morn
Incredulous smiles become born
Again

The muse in my a-muse-ment
Becomes paraphrased, violet-tinted charm

This unadulterated verbiage
Preparing moistened breaths
Into crux of night

Surrendering chain-link grips of consonants...

Crumbled paper, I start pouring my heart out then I throw it in away and say I’ll do it again later. I put my pen to the paper and I start to write what’s on my mind, I start to speak about my youth and...

It was never meant to last.
You warned me that you'd trip.  A relationship, 
like a house, cannot stand when built on a foundation of sand.
              Ours was sinking fast.

Yes, Life Crumbled At His Feet Like Decay On An Old Log

Yes, life crumbled at his feet like decay on an old log
that morn was abjectly eerie had a low moving fog
and in the distance a low murmur rolled on in
In that bleak little world,...

The world around us is in a downward spiral, and we're too busy staring at each other.
Planets are colliding, throwing chunks of rock in all directions.

Somehow, through the rubble falling, we can always find our way to one another.
In a cloud of dust, we stand...

Re : Old Poems


Bells of triumph clang,
Fortresses fain to hail thee
Men of valiant swords.
Glories thence fell, crowns crumbled
To dust, no wailings were heard.

,,

The wind about thy sceptre howl and cry,
Loft precipices trampled;
Ruined rich piles of graves.

Suddenly everybody was awaken by the strong tremors
of the early April's earthquake...walls falling all around them,
dust suffocating them as they ran out to the debris-covered streets;
with no slippers and shoes on their cold feet;
people of all ages with their robes and pajamas on...screaming,
running scared with...

My faith so strong
        crumbled until completely gone
      when my precious child's seizures came along.
        My faith had all been drawn
  in the two year...

I CRUMBLED YOUR LEAVES
WITH GLOVED HANDS
AND MIXED THE RESIDUE WITH SAND
I PLANTED MY COLLARDS AND KALE
MY TURNIPS AND HORSRADISHES
SOME WERE IN THE PALE
I CRUMBLED YOUR PRETTY LEAVES
SO THAT THEY MIGHT NURISH MY PLANTS
COMPSOE IN THESE SANDS
FOOD FOR MY PLANTS!...

Ah, memories
        that crumbled to the ground that day;
      my childhood home, surrounded by tall trees-
        demolished, swept away.
  For progress sake . . ....

Will this piece of pie 
       put me over my
       calorie count?
       I desperately 
       I want to wear

THE CRUMBLED LIFE

I took the life that Christ gave me and crumbled it to bits;
Though He had made great sacrifice, I made a mess of it.
I didn’t think of what I did, I only wanted fun.
Though deep inside I knew ‘twas wrong, the ruin had...

No matter how you paint it
Every time the same thing comes back
Open your eyes just a bit
The colors turn black.

Whatever the words that are said
They never come out the right way
Dreams should be left in bed
Not how you live each day,

Prisons are made of bars...

The cigarette sparks 
Though small were non-bargaining
They turned cargoes into cinders
Thick smoke
Circling into the air
Before the fire engine arrived
While some flames still lingered 
Amongst smoking debris
The last wall crumbled
And hollow darkness occupied
The spaces left
Amidst the fire remains 
The smeared poles and pillars
Some people started collecting...
