Best Disaster Poems

Beautiful Disaster

There she is
Silhouette in the night
Lights glimmer, as fame simmers
She is all of my desires
She is all of my fires

Here I am wet
Flooded with pain
There she is dry
As a desert rain
Her beauty rouge bleeding into my soul

I wash my hands
I wash my meaningless life
Of...

I arrived at the airport, along with my wife
For two whole weeks we'll live the good life
We're flying out today for a break in Italy
The place we've both always wanted to see.

We got through security then went to duty free
Champagne for my wife, and whiskey...

He arrived wearing pink skinny jeans
They were scruffy and ripped at the seams
He looked like a wiener
I will not be meaner
But he’s sure not the man of my dreams

2/07/18

A square peg into a round slot
A dreamy man he sure is not
Gawd he's wearing pink
Give me...

Cause you see no one gets how hard it is to fix back into shape when you’re broken,
Shattered,
I think it’s just mathematically, scientifically impossible to get the pieces back perfect,
Because in the process some pieces may have been lost,
Lost and cannot be found,
Cause I found...

We arrived at the airport quite late
My passport was months out of date
My husband was snappy
The baby filled its nappy
I just stood there and got quite irate

The pilot had been on the pop
On the runway he couldn't stop
He just missed a tree
Stopped off for a...

I saw a prostitute walking at night,
With high heels, ten inches, oh what a fright;

She lost her balance, crashing,
And her goods she was flashing,

Watching her get up was really a sight.

If you ever visit South Wales do go and see 
The location of what was an awful tragedy
Famous for the wrong reasons the town of Aberfan
Suffered an unspeakable horror that was caused by man.

On the twenty first of October at nine fifteen
Was the worst mining...

I'm looking for the dejavu
that should be caught to contemplate
the miss, near miss of circumstance
the hand that brushed us by, by chance

I'm looking for the accident
that blew up seconds after us
with cars colliding and the rest
(it's just a brush with introspect)

I'm feeling back for that...

The whistles screamed that cold dark night
                                      ...

Rain-Desperate Times
Days and weeks of rain
has come down hard and fast
desperate times prevail...

it can be a market crash 
a global outbreak 
it can be a Mount Saint Helen
for me it was Northridge, California 
January 17th, 1994
I saw myself in the eyes of children
hungry, shocked, confused
clinging to mothers 
their reality and the earth 
both trembling underfoot
I was given...

Bowing to the mighty ocean 
Relentless is her pull,
Into the blue depths
'Til she's good and full

Ice took it's first shot
As steady we ran right in,
Sailing along so freely
As a whale on his fin

Crashing, just scraping by
Then onto a dead stop,
I write this letter now
While I...

A GIFT FROM THE GODS

Beginning with a negative isn't always wrong
We have our own version of where we belong
The universe can be a theatre of creation
Bursts of energy ignites the occasion
Colours, explosions with glowing beams
A beautiful and poetic start to scene

However, darkness echoes its demonic...

The corona virus has crippled the
Economy and the nation
It seems to be on a death trip
Killing everyone it comes
In contact with
With several businesses having to 
Closed their doors temporarily 
Creates several problems
Like a recession
Businesses can’t pay the workers
If they’re not at work
How will people pay...

Indigenous your home
Incomprensible
Indestructable ship
Indecisive captain
Interrupted this trip
Impression of safety
Indelible losses...
