Best Dismember Poems
The WallWinnie, wild-eyed, went insane
and sang “Happy Birthday” in the rain,
while she washed away her bloody pain.
Now all day long she sings that song,
she sings it loud, she sings it strong,
walled in where she does not belong.
For not unlike her maddened mind,
her bony body’s been...

Justice In the Quest For LoveI saw how martyrs longed for love, and so began the play of my flitting heart
A strange girl had I become, with airs of fickle dream,
My heart an embodiment of wonder to all that dared to behold it
Closing my eyes, I would find myself knowing...

Common Threadswhether bound and dragged
behind a pick-up
‘til limbs slowly dismember
or shackled hand and foot
then tossed unsecured
into the back of a rolling
makeshift coffin
whether judge, jury or executioner
all don the same hat
and fancy themselves a God
and your only crime was to...

Beggars and ThievesMaybe I feel sorry for;
The amongst us thieves;
The ones who give to us;
But don't ever receive.
Maybe beggars can't be choosers;
Like lovers amongst the abusers;
That's a game I refuse to play:
Before they roll the dice, they make you pay.
You call us versions of Robin Hood;
Just...

InapproachableThe lustrous surface of your sea is
urging me to drown in its intriguing blue.
Afraid to go further, I stand hesitantly at
your mysterious shore, yet allowing your
tides to lick my soul!
Your waves grow in me rapidly,
clogging the flow of my breathing!
I hark keenly to...

Empty BabyWhat sort of life
Is taken away
Without a word
Without a say
From a life unknown
Unsewn to her side
Just left to slide
Into an unknown tomb
Ripped from the womb
That lies empty
Surrounded by plenty
Of long, happy lives
So we strive
To burn our hurt, our rage
Turn over another page
And move on from...

The Funky Train 3In the funky train,
All the hoo-ha-noisy end in fisticuff;
As the crumpled greenback hand-out cough,
The law has nothing to handcuff,
Maneuvering on the sloppy storey hill
A frantic dance of dead-drunk crazy masquerade;
Man-handling the dare-devil by weary drenched soaked...

Untitled Part 1i am the salt of the earth and the ocean
i am the light that shines from within
the inner cries behind facial emotions
the darkness that is covered in skin
i comprehend the appearance of freedom
though i am chained to this earth

A Chantage the BetrayalA Chantage
Extortion matters change the air to ice
The price of blackmail and betrayal
A heavy spice served up with delight
Wife and friend in bed together
Not playing cards or knitting sweaters
Things could be worse
I’m happy to find them first
Not in reverse
My mistress and I found in bed
Not...

ProofWe are the days that we’ve become.
moments dripping gifted from
the lounging clocks in rolling melted sightings,
given by the gifted madness of a soulmate’s fightings.
Our lives wrapped up in phrases coined
in books like, “best things ever said”.
we are the living words from inside-out...

Where we stand is anti

Of words from the guru

"look At Our Picture, We Are Gone Forever"Beautiful, how we burn, sweet, how we scream, horizon, what we build, look at it now, is falling
down, dead less feelings covering mental capacity, dying to build up a wall were the enemy will
not cross, but a lifetime is not enough for the...
