Best Dereliction Poems
This DerelictionA Nation, wearied, sapped traumatized.
This vast exotic land, fringed by lush emerald jungles
A spark rising from the west, once looked upon by all,
A giant?
No, faded glory.
Vistas of burning star and torrential rivers
Once revered, now a derelict of crumbled epitaph ...

Dereliction of Duty
Your searching eyes were looking elsewhere
when the storm clouds came rolling in
They coveted someone else's treasured heart

looming on the near horizon
Furthermore, you didn't even tell your best friend
Angry dark skies
reveal your hidden buried lies
I was sold a shipment of...

Or do you waiver, falter...

Serve Me Better LoveLies are inclusive
Truths are not
Think before you speak
That's what everybody taught
Envisaging is something
Which is not permitted
