Slams Destroyed Her Head
Slams Destroyed Her Head

She was slammed by slam poetry, boo hoo!
Some folks wondered about the hullabaloo.
When bombarded with dread,
Sad thoughts destroyed her head.
Now, she thinks she’s a blithering cuckoo!

Poetry Destroyed
you claim to be the Poetry Destroyer
but i'll destroy you
i'll kick you into touch because I know Kung-Fu
in linguistics I own a belt thats black
i'll leave you down and out with no chance of a comeback

when it comes to dissing i'm a pro
i spit it...

A Poet Destroyed
I burn in a fiery blaze of disappointment for a poor judge to see .
Swallowed by hungry tears. Shallow tears eat my cheek.
 The salty substance, similar to the oceans of life. 
Washed away and swept off my feet. 
I am a tiny speckle left...

On Wicked Kings And Time Destroyed Dragons

O foolish king, sitting on hollow throne
thy lost kingdom so dark, thee sits alone.
Embrace thy greed, measured in stolen gold
destroying people with your lies so bold.

O foul villain, in false pride laboring
greater evil thy own destruction brings.
Thy henchman, voices...

America Is Being Destroyed From Within
As sin and perversion often 
become integrated…
So many lives and families 
are being “disintegrated.”

Many are being driven by sin’s temptation force…
It’s no wonder much of this country 
is way “off course.”

The morality and values that once made a great nation.
Are evaporating….  Leading to a...

Once Broken, But Not Destroyed!
As I look back over my life, my heart was broken but I wasn’t destroyed,
Many people tried to take advantage of me like I was some kind of a toy.
When I was a child, I had this fixation that I knew what love is all...

So I let you know I to am guilty ..

Destroyed Restored
This is a part 2 poem. A continuation from a poem called
The Day The Running Stopped. A Bio.


The tennis racket crashed down upon him
A boy just two years old
His Grandfather came in and saved him
Before life became dark and cold.

The monster came again in third...

Poet Destroyed??
Poet Destroyer!
Billy the kidster got shot.
My draw is quicker!

Poet Destroyer!
The Joker was the punch line.
My slams entertain!

Poet Destroyer!
Your words have earned my respect,
And earned my challenge!

Poet Destroyer!
Do not underestimate
Your new challenger!

Poet Destroyer!
Tell your "boyfriend" that I said
"Do not miss a word!"...

The Phone Call That Destroyed Me
Out of nowhere I received
A call that brought me to my knees
Making me turn weak and shake
The news was more than I could take
It was shocking and unreal
There was nothing I could feel
Going numb and frozen still
I couldn't speak I lost my will
To control any...

All Beauty Destroyed
I do not see things the way you might
I can find good in the darkness
Even when things seem hopeless
Even when it seems that
All beauty's destroyed
There will always
Be some hope
And some
Light...

Premium Member Love Destroyed
How did we end up so estranged?
We’ve loved each other many years
With words like swords we severed
Each others hearts to shreds last night

In grief I wandered through the day
Wondering how to stitch the wounds
Repair the damage we have done
But only silence answered me

Quiet so deep...

Premium Member From Stars
Our bodies are made from stars,
The lustrous sanguinity of speckled nocturne,
The dispelled chemistry of supernovas.
Trillions of years old,
Trillions of miles traveling,
We are children of spacetime.  

Our bodies are made from stars,
Our psyche emerged like fire 
From star formulas of life’s order.
Spontaneous beings, 
We always...

Shadow
Just a shadow
of who I used to be.
My heart has been scorched
my soul sun bleached
Both full of holes
and ragged edges
I gave up what defined me
I dropped my morals
I raised my boundaries
and I've pushed everyone outside
of the walls I have erected
around me.
Still I smile
I hug, I...

Reach Out
Soft spoken like Charmin
The earth is down to you
You'd sacrifice the clothes off your body
in a winter storm
Forever putting yourself out of the photo
Loyal to snakes
Spearhead in your spine 
future bright as a lit billboard at 2 a.m.
all for $2000
Now you live among rapists, murderers
talking...
