Best Disbelief Poems

The Aussies looked in disbelief,
When the twin towers they did fall,
Terror rained on the Pentagon,
Figher Jets came to call,

Americans fought for a plane,
To beat the terrorists down,
Bin Laden’s high was to be denied,
plunged into the ground,

Yes we do fight, against this blight,
Upon humanity,
Murder all, day...

when all is settled
and all is done
we sigh in disbelief
of that  beautiful moment in life
grasped in our hands 
for a brief second
every things 
Perfect....

Under a rainbow lies darkness…
Below the colors, spilled forgiveness…

A bird in a box whose wings are silenced…
Etched on a wall is pure defiance…

Innocence invaded by fear and disbelief…
A torn smile uncovers grief…

Squinting eyes slowly close and sleep…
As tears dry and darkness creeps…

Intrigued by my thoughts. Now let the tongue tickle the main. I'm one of a kind. I like to play in this fundamental mine, of yours. I love to explore, get a better understanding of you. This is my dream come true. Now let me...

My hand on your shoulder;
Your hand on my waist.
We shuffle across the ballroom.
The other dancers swoon by us--
Elegant and graceful
Perfect and in sync.

We struggle to keep some sense of rhythm between us
But I'm two steps ahead of the tune
While you drag your feet.
There is nothing...

In a world of muted reality
where parents once swelled with pride
the day they kissed their babies’ cries
and tasted their life’s dream
heroin poisons sons
and alcohol washes away daughters
as sunsets creak past rusted porch swings
salted with silent grief
Gone are the Sunday picnics
and the tee ball jubilation
when fortune...

She gives off a very sly smile
A look that says more than dismay
Another view she looks at beyond
Showing all that it’s quite okay

Her disbelief is shown with her look
A look of shock painted on her face
Though she smiles with a kind of fear
Not a bit...

An atheistic 'Chief Chaplain' at Harvard
       The university's raison d'etre bartered

    A divinity school, founded to spread God's word
       The goal now, 'equitable neighborhoods'...

My brother is suffering;
And Lord, so am I.

I am sorry; 
But, my Lord, I must ask... 
"Why?"

Why should someone so generous
battle so very hard?
Why should his life, Lord,
be so very scarred? 

Heal him Lord;
I beg of You,
despite my disbelief.
Take the cancer from him,
Save us all...

Hearts that have never loved before,
can't taste a gratuitous tenderness;
and they lament why they haven't been blessed!
They have wrestled and lost that grip on growth,
and with a gravelly voice,they grumble...
to allow grudge guard them against hurt:
miserably failing to consider
evidence with excessive cupidity; 
grinding their teeth,...

what are you
a butcher
an assassin
are you kidding me

you nonchalantly
say you’re
just killing time

do you not see
it’s criminal
you’ll never come across
anything more valuable
than the precious
gift of time

My heart is reaching for you
While my mind is putting up its roadblock
It may startle me, or it may not
If on my soul you did knock

Scared you are really mine
Just feels silly that I would deserve
Hard to wrap my head around
How you wrap around my...

Oh how, I cry, disdain toward the word,
that gaslights sanity and truth defy.
When hapless, hopeless person, undeterred,
begs ask the question, of the victim, why?

Does thou holdest thee in purest contempt,
whilst quick, to grant, my aggressor pardon?
Lest I, in whom, no violence breathes, attempt,
to find, just...

I read in the news the other day,
Believe this if you can.
We should have a gingerbread person,
And not a gingerbread man.

Yes, things should now be genderless,
In order to avoid the flack,
Should anyone be offended, 
When buying a gingery snack. 

When it snows, don’t build a...

REVELATION
It was ages since we ‘d met. I dread her visits.
The melodrama and discord leave me unmoored.

My sister’s hugs morphed into stones, dropped one by one. 
Words hitting dark water. Circles of disbelief spun around me. 
Not one scintilla of truth. 

I glimpsed her self-satisfied...
