Best Defamed Poems


Premium Member Swimming with sharks
In times where eyes are fixated at your sins, 
judgment trolls in deceptive double standards. 
When pointing fingers nobody really wins, 
there's no joy in being defamed and slandered. 
Swimming in an aquarium full of fins, 
sharks will bite your flesh then leave you abandoned....

Premium Member "vietnam Veterans"
Anne Murray did have quite the flurry, voice as a brook without crooks
 Canadian born, songs of forlorn, beautiful vibes, I subscribed
Such singing as a bird, the world has never heard, she splurged
“O Little Snow Bird”,  in the words I heard, calming of Vietnam

O...

Premium Member An Olive Tree
In this new century of our Lord
The gardener planted the young tree 
Placed in garden of Gethsemane 
An olive to the knee

Around two thousand years have passed
A beaten path close by
Each word the Olive tucks away
Within its heart with sighs

When Jesus was just a small...

Premium Member Where Has All the Beauty Gone
Where Has All The Beauty Gone?

There is no time like the now times,
The ever-present blood-swooshing times.
Time again to surrender as a smitten lover surrenders,
To the never-ending rhapsodies of erotic impulses,
Which exhale as a listless leviathan exhales,
Basking in the swishing waters off the windy capes, 
Naked,...

Premium Member My Father's Garden
It was summer time, a time for planting and reaping 
and when it came to my dad well he could make that garden sing 
He spent hours nurturing his plum tomatoes, while I his offspring
could only admire his patience, dedication and caring from afar.

Premium Member Van Morrison 2024
Take some applause, for the message that floored
The propaganda 2020... 21.. You stood tall,  and spoke
Loud 'Ulsters son stood unbowed' you could not be cowed'
As humanity by power was defamed,l.' amidst false agenda
Out on a bender, as so called experts called surrender! yet you..You!
Stuck...

Home of the Slaves
Land of the free
Home of the slaves
The blood, sweat and tears of my ancestors resonate
Amongst the soil where they were slain
I’m hearing their struggle
I’m feeling their pain
I can’t imagine being forced to part from my family
All for massa’s gain
So I pay homage to those who...

Best Man
Well versed
    rehearsed
    Best man
    began
    He joked
    provoked
    Each word
    was slurred
    Blah blah
    faux pas

The Fable Was Not Able
As stories go 
So do souls
They wonder then grow

As cold as snow
Or as fever ant as ice
Men are not mice

In fields of golden wheat; grain 
Lost with out; insane
Forgetting all that was; ingrained

Living souls in stores
Forgetting their chores
They become the board

Life swings back and forth
Mistrust;...

A Come Down World View From On High
some-tin-can-tan-man 
playing in the sand
with paper tigers
  a bear with many tentacles
red everywhere
	in the skies
  clouds streaming down
hispeed downsload online power lines
  pavement-red trees ripe for slicing
 and many motored mobiles moving
i see these incessant seas of disease
in roving throes of twos...

Premium Member My Black Cowboy Hat
I have a black cowboy hat I wear on certain days,
like when a night of partying is the only goal.
The wearing of this cowboy hat brings out my wicked ways,
when loudly and with fanfare, into the bar I stroll
and the only thing I don't do...

In Love
No mean for all,
even a single fear
How decent guy trap
silently in love,

O’er this anthology

Might you with me
and I with you be in

And end to begin,

We are resurrected
again and start in

illuminatingly my

As autumn swerve to

Premium Member Can a Cowboy Be Deranged
In a public washroom, can Kings ever be DEthroned?
When a cowboy moves to the city, is he DEranged?
Do photographers wishes sometimes DEvelop?
Are former famous models ever DEposed?
When a ship leave for the Caribbean, is it DEported?
Do lawyers sometimes sit on Defence?
When a man gets ready...
