Best Disremember Poems
It seemed to me once
that I told my self : how much I love you
that I held your hands how warmly I felt
that I loocked into your eyes , how weakly I melt
and that I made all those poems just for you
how they were close to me , so true
It seemed to me once that you smiled to me
how beautiful you were
that I'm the strongest man , as long as you show me your care
It seemed to me once when I was carrying you home that you were the one
that we sit together hoping of our future, our daughter and our son
It seemed to me once that you left me, you went behind my back , I didn't have a plan
It seemed to me once that I saw you with another, how could you disremember ?
It seemed to me once that I listened to that banned music of me n you
how much I needed you
It seems to me now, that it has been a long time ago, how am i addicted to remember!!
it seems to me now that we accidently meet, how strangers we look like !
, that love and destiny are two friends of opposite sides
It seems to me now, that it seemed to you once, that you must end it, how it was easy for you to do ??
It seems to me now, that you're nothing more than it seemed to me once that I told my self how much I love you !!!

Cool Chuck
The first time-- on the school dance floor
Feeling hot, yet thrilled and much more
You’ve been there…tortured, waiting but looking around
A guy saw me hanging on the wall, just staring at the ground
I looked up to see this guy coming my way
Nervous---wanted to run but had to stay
When he pulled me in, had to stand on my tip-toes
Like the first sprinkle of rain… then and there-- I began to fall
Johnny Mathis love song and him holding me so tightly
Ohhh, feeling his breathe, he whispered in my ear ever so lightly
You’re Callie aren’t you… Gold dust...My name is Chuck
Purple velvet meshes against the face ---me, pitifully awestruck
Never, can't disremember that flutter in my heart
Erotic yet innocent in simultaneous start
No foolishness with him…he lured me right in
Our bodies swayed together feeling as if it were a sin
Kissing my neck aware he was in charge
My feelings were obvious and way too large
Moving to that slow song body to body, we both knew
Like never before, cool Chuck had felt it too
Remembering that night long ago with his kisses on cue
Brings a smile to my face as though it were all new

Pretty Pink Pill
Can you pretty please take away all my pain?
Take away all the blues from my heart?
Make me forget of my unloved love
Disremember all the hurting inside
Repress all the injustice and violence of this world
Suppress all the fighting in my crazy house
Unremember the loneliness within myself
Pause my worries and fears
Dry all my tears
Pretty Pink Pill can you kill all my unhappiness
Erase my purple depression and craziness
Bury all my failures
Burn my lousy past
Fill in my emptiness
Warm my coldness
Sink my stupid sins
Let me forget I am worth s__
Forget I touch earth
And my name be forever lost
Forget that I am no better than a fart
Sleep my brain and already dead heart

Remember
The voice that woke you up in the morning
Disremember
The arguments that altered into mourning
Consider
The affectionate memories that we cherish the most
Don’t consider
The horrifying hours that we have not spent with each other
Reflect on
The blissful Sabbaths that we’ve kept with the whole family
Don’t reflect on
The unholy conversations that we bring up at the dinner table
But do remember
The joyful dreams that we share with each other!
But do remember
That you are beautiful and you are worthy to find your true love,
My cherished sister
Do you still consider our eccentric, dreamlike characters?
Do you still consider our imaginations soaring like a golden eagle, flying triumphantly?

It's time
but you don't arrive
the tempo has come for rain
and you don't come...
All seasons pass
you don't show yourself in any...
Almost half a century has passed
and you never came back..
I should disremember,
but I don't obliterate you,,,
For a immense love
there is no blow...
The sense is not found in other arms...
It does not feel in another skin,
same taste....!

Light Verse
Advancing the construct of love
With embryonic sophistication
Will only bemuse the dove
And send her back with agitation….
Through its genial labyrinth, into the trap
Of every distant memory;
For the olive branch will surely snap
When clinging to its reverie.
The bark will fend off the wrath of December,
However, the fruit is not solely for you—
Lest we digress and disremember;
The leaves are there to collect the dew
To nourish itself for all to pursue.

Do you understand me?
Don't forget to say
Never forget to say
"I do"
I remember December
Like no other, remember?
Don't dismay May weather
Whatsoever; that means never
Disremember the curse of error
There's a cure to everyone you injure
These hardships in advance, you will endure
Forever...
Together...
"We do"
Do you truly understand
Free-spirited unity at hand?
So, do you?
Hope you do...
Let us hope you do too
Because, well, we do...
Know the unity you can't undo
We're all in this, all I say is true

The nearer peace,more savage are the acts
Abhorrent to the atheist in us all.
History, undigested ,splits and cracks
As we whites did evil to the black
With little difference, hate for glory calls.
The nearer peace, the more savage the acts
All of us can disremember facts
Israeli hands have gripped and then appalled.
History, undigested ,splits and cracks
As ,with Bomber Harris, Dresden packed
Burned like grass the refugees to ghouls
The nearer peace, the more savage the acts
We deny the healing we have lacked
For Jesus' Jews we let be killed ,de-souled
History, undigested ,splits and sticks
Palestine’s own Arabs are ill ruled
And in return, explode like stubborn mules
The nearer love, the more the hatred whacks
History., inconceivable, directs

Don't laugh - it works:
Wash down 4-5-6
Triple-Strength ephedrine tabs
Follow with a Jolt cola
Chomp down a goodsized chocolate bar
Then chase away its cloying sweetness
With a 4-day old 20 oz. 7-11 coffee,
BLACK.
Later, while speeding down an empty highway
Private demons dancing in your head
Chasing thoughts around
Like the wind chasing dead shards of summer
Through a silver sea of winter clouds,
Radio chattering like a mental patient -
Embellish the chaos
With unbridled daydreams of lurid sex;
Follow with unstructured reflections on one's life unravelling.
Think about anything
Anything to stave off the dark's heavy hand
Pressing the walls as we sleep.
Disremember the last time
Death walked grinning white next to you,
Forget what might be slipping past
Each time you close your eyes.

The purpose of authority is to remain in authority, not to dispense justice. (Anonymous)
There are lofty careers such as chef or physician,
But none is so low as a politician.
We vote to send them to D.C. to represent us,
But once they take office they start to resent us,
And retaining the job is their only ambition.
We've a two-party system, supposedly better than one,
But they're constantly bickering and little gets done.
Each session is rife with innuendo, and slander,
And pure diatribe, and, of course, gerrymander,
But when they vote to raise their pay, they pull as one.
Republicans and Democrats by name,
Self-promotion and duplicity their game.
What a politician says is proving
He's lying if his lips are moving,
But we elect them, so we've just ourselves to blame.
Trump soon will start his reign again, but here's the thing,
This country needs a leader, not a king.
Kamala mightn't have been much better,
But would've tried harder if we'd let her,
And she wouldn't treat the job as just a fling.
Now Republicans are thrilled because they won,
But the uphill fight for them has just begun.
What they seem to disremember,
All power to them is not surrendered.
No matter what they may propose,
The Dems will stubbornly oppose,
And they'll find themselves back where they were…
Square one…
And both Houses work the hardest
When they're getting nothing done.
This country needs a captain
Who can steer the ship of state.
Let's hope that…somehow…Trump will beat the odds
And not continue second rate.
For the next four years, I guess,
We'll have to bide our time and wait
For him to tweet us just exactly where he stands,
And that the country's in the very best of hands.

Political Verse
Have you heard that clear melodious sound before
Insistent like someone knocking at your front door
If you could taste it it’s probably sweet like sugar cane
It’s only a bird joyfully singing its Christmas again
Strange but you can sense it in the atmosphere
Even the silence gently saying Christmas is here
Across the land children rehearse Christmas plays
Decorate Christmas trees in many colourful ways
Buying special gifts for families and friends so dear
An exciting pleasant exercise we do it every year
How can we ever this historical day disremember
The true and real meaning of that day in December
Born in a manger in a stable our precious Lord
Peace and joy angelic voices singing in one accord
Wise men sought him brought three gifts and saw
A little baby but Mary’s baby is a baby no more
And that is why with grateful hearts we sing
Joy to the world for Jesus is our coming King
Happy Christmas and goodwill to all out there
Let’s spread this message of hope everywhere

Lead me to your soul,
and cleave as Siemens in your heart sublime
Take me to the endless flattered bliss of your kindness home,
Of colourful blossom
let me be all there's in the world
i was as withered leaf or broken calabash tossed upon a turbulent black sea
Shall you lead me to your soul, I shall be as morning rose in the dew spring.
kiss away my fears, hug away my silent cold,
Upon the unquenched flare of your heart to warm.
Caress me like the gentle wind upon the shore at eventide the calabash sail anew.
Undeflower my brokenness, I'll be heavens rosy all for you!
Lay me upon your warmest bosom, shall my shattered being mend and my soul as elated dove sing.
In your arms to ferry through unturmiol wind
Sail me through to old age, I'm unruffled in the turbulence of seas whence I'm paddled on your boat of love.
And disremember my past of ridden folly!
Walk me through the path where neither footsteps have thread- to the isle we shall an endless passion sublime.
Lead me to your soul,
to find all my days with you
Shall our soul unsevered cleave,
Till eternity i'm all for you.

Body
do not break me yet,
my armour is cracked and fading…
Eyes
do not blind me now,
I have too much still to witness…
Hands
do not waste away on me yet,
my canvas is parched and needs nourishment…
Feet
do not forget my rhythm now,
I have too much bold passion left to emancipate…
Mouth,
do not go dumb on me yet,
my words are few but multiply in the minds of many…
Ears
do not isolate me now,
I have too much to realise and assimilate…
Heart
do not fail me yet,
my battle is far from over and no treaty is in sight…
Soul,
do not abandon me now,
I have too much fire for my phoenix to fly…
Mind
do not disremember me yet,
my sub-conscious has much still to fathom out…
Universe
do not conceal yourself from me now,
I am ready…

Tonight the sky that once
became a blackboard of my
dream gradually loves the dark.
The vast black heaven in the
night of sorrow is the haven of
the twinkling stars.
But their brightness is
diminishing.
They somehow make my heart
happy
For I am made to think that they
give succor to me
They grieve over my reproach.
On this similar hour of the past I
held her hand
As my lips gently touched her
forehead.
On this same time too
I warmly hugged her
And she responded with a sweet
smile at me.
Sweet moments of how I really
loved her are boxed in my
memory.
Someone already owns her,
Like her heart that has
previously forgotten, I will also
disremember our love.
Tonight I see the starry sky,
The sound of waves that crash
onto the shore is forlorn
And the wind of the night has
indisposition.
Enough to feel the final pain she
had given me
And the last love song I offered
to her.

If I should grow so old that I
Forget my name, beloved faces,
Disremember who I am and
Get lost in familiar places,
Then I would be sad and confused,
I’m sure I would be lonely too;
Yet Lord above, my truest Friend,
I know I’d still remember You.
The saddest person I envision,
Whom ever on this earth has trod,
Must be the one with mind so dulled,
He has forgotten the true God.
When pleasures of this life are through,
Dear God, my God, I’ll still have you.
