Best Decoding Poems


Decoding
Questions are proliferating,
people search for answers
in old pants pockets
in long discarded purses.
The scampering feet of baby philosophers
can be heard from the moon.

The media is stymied, they are manipulating,
confiscating and hiding behind the backs
of massively overgrown ballers,
willy-nilly they scribble an alternative reality
upon indoor swimming pools.

The manic...

He understood physics to the max
  And his equations had no cracks
 But he was in doubt
 As he tried to figure out
 Each line of his income tax!

Decoding Life
I have witnessed myself clearing a dozen
bottles of alcohol.
I have witnessed myself taking overdose
of sleeping pills at 3 a. m. in the morning.
I have witnessed myself walking along a lonely
road, to no particular direction.

Frustrations have enveloped my eyes
from the future - thought to be bright.
Life,...

Decoding Self
Hey G you ready?
Always...

I stand for faith and I'm talented
Like those athletes in the Olympics:
Running marathons with a touch in my hand! 
shouting freedom is for all
And fire lights up the kingdom,
Like the sun enlightening the world,
Venus my babe...
And she whispers "say no to the...

DECODING THE MESSAGE

a gentle 
& tasteful
 critique
with
an ongoing
 preoccupatation
with
 figuration

a  change
in
direction
a collaboration
initiated
by
 memorabilia
of emerging
improvisation

a series
 concentrating
on fragments
 of imagery
 from
the  unexpectedly
&  overt
underlying

currently
 unscripted
this non-stop
 this
churn
now long long
forgotten &
 discounted ten
yet a
prized
 improvisation
of the
 intuitive
approach
 to a
creativity  
but
 so
compellingly
 strange

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique...

Premium Member DECODING a FractioN of the ENGLISH LANgUAgE?
Here is a fraction of half the 
Examples which I call decoding.
Yeah decoding the Inglish language.
Hey now hear in this damnation
The Inglish dominance is learned 
And deplorable.

All right  alright. And just how did 
You sleap last knight?  Ah ha hoho!
The knight was gloryous....

Decoding Twilight
Walking the woods,
evening caressing my face
with its moleskin fingers,
eyes blue-flamed
by a shape-shifting twilight.
Listening to the deep delving sounds
of forest roots
as they clutch the earth close
before another nocturnal drama
slinks close enough to pounce.

Hoot owl calling,
hoot owl answering.
For a moment
I am one short life, a brief fluttering...
