Best Debris Poems
Intellectual Debris
Aimlessly walking across the wasteland
of your mind,
you pick through the emotional trash
with random intensity
Crushed bottles of plastic thoughts;
half drank, half spilled on dozens of bridal dresses
Crushed cans of metal demands;
hard lemonade speeches, soft wine cooler caresses
And betrothed napkins
blow away in the wind
Rusted...

There was a time when I was a seaman travelled with
a cardboard suitcase and my best shoes wrapped in newspaper.
I always wore khaki mainly because people would think I was
an American, back then I thought it a great country; still...

This imagination, a shattering

Ballad
Love's DebrisAll that I am, was and ever will be,
you'll find written in verses by my hand.
You may never completely understand
the depth, breadth and heart of me
unless you look beyond love's debris.

DebrisAlone on this road I can't see

Our selfishness would cause...

DebrisCaptivation
Replication
Reinforcement
Of the demonstration
Lying anger
Silent quiver
Noisy confessions
Of what we never
Had the guts
To ever accomplish
So we sit here
Waiting for the end of it
Reincarnation
Of disintegration
Is the reflection
Of pride in our nation....

**debrisAs we grow older we understand
That some things we wanted weren’t part of God’s plan
A moment in time we’d thought would last forever
Is over, but to be forgotten, never
Time proves over and over to remain true
It allows us to see what we once never knew
How...

They Were Hit By Falling Space DebrisThey Were Hit By Falling Space Debris
By Elton Camp
The only death from falling objects up to now
Was suborbital junk that killed a Cuban cow
Cow nor its owners were available for interview
So we can’t be certain that the story is even true
A report that’s reliable and...

DebrisIf only tears could talk,
They would surely be cutthroats.
If only fear could walk,
It would blindly go toward you.
And if only grudges are strong,
It would hold you forever.
If I would be honest about what I feel,
and follow the lead of my freewill,
I will unquestionably end up...
