Best Dismissed Poems

You don't listen to my sad words
Certainly can't understand the hurt inside of me
Nothing matters but what you feel and want
You hide in a world of emptiness
Repeated all day long in the news broadcasts that you devour 
Words that form your reality a far distance...

When Heaven's plans for Man were prepared

Man insisted he to be free

His future asked himself to handle

From then into eternity



As millennia though have passed by

Man proved incapable to be

His own happiness to realize

Without divinity's decree



For that a choice is now asked to make

If he desires...

case dismissed
judge in the monkey suit
takes out zookeeper

Did you hear the one about the judge in the monkey suit?  
No, but I spotted that lady zookeeper,  
what a knockout in her sexy black dress. 

The story  I heard was that the judge...

In all my years I've never been 
So sad to see the likes of him 
My little boy, now 6 feet tall 
Smokes pot and drinks 
And that ain't all... 
His anger lurks and waits for me 
To raise my voice, to set it free....

You sashay on by me
your nose in the air
a glance of dismissal
in those green eyes you wear

Enticing me more with
your lack of concern
Your show of indifference
Only makes my heart yearn

So I bow to your wishes
I bow to your whims
But find myself here
Stuck out on a...

Engaged to a null void
My feelings destroyed
Stuck in a place
Everything's in slow pace
Features hardened in my face
No longer am I laced
Good times all erased
Hurt, anger, and rage in it's place
I pray for 
God's saving grace

Life seems like a chase
So I'm in my personal space
and
it's lonely...

Marginalized middle finger people
moving upwardly mobile
on a quality-of-life escalator going always down

Mall pallbearers for the palladium pocketeers,
(them who bring forth weekly pocket tears)
Three-piece suit gator claws with Wall Street wolf ears

Kiss-the-ring finger people
trying to climb up the societal brass rung
Getting pyramid food chain hung —...

Before you step to me thinking you gonna have some fun. Stop don't try it. I'm not 
your trick. I'm really not the one. Don't even try to call me with your knickles and 
dimes. Your money does not impress me,not even your broke nursery...

It was another so so day in the courtroom
No reporter with their note pad, no big cases
The Judge may have been hung over, but who knows
They had to wait, the court reporter was in the restroom
Everyone was half asleep, a lot of long faces
No one...

I would like to thank you for your visit.
I have removed these poems for a distant future book publication.
I believe we poets, can make a difference
in this world. We live in the 21st century,
we have tools( technology), we have our past,  and imagination.
We just...

There was a man called McPake
Who felt in need of a break
He jumped on a train
Came straight back again
For his case he failed to take....

Thinking about us
I come undone
Looking back I don’t know
Whether we lost or won

Voices in my mind
That I just can’t translate
But I know
I’ll learn to appreciate 

I’m not laying blame
I’m not keeping score
I just wish I could find 
Who I was before

All was taken
And more was...

Can you see me before you
Brave face disguising my anguish
as you lay it all out to me
telling me how it has to be

Who are you to decide my fate
to take my happiness in your hands
how can feeling so much mean so little
to someone who called...
