Best Enlists Poems

Arrows of anger pierce my heart with their hate...one spark on the tip sets a nuclear blaze
Lost in a homicidal haze I'm looking for love
I'm surrounded by ravens...Where are the doves?
Now I twist and I turn
I'm playing the fool...as you fiddle I burn

Shooting arrows of...

There on the threshold of the dawn
when lights of night of had been outdone.
His chariot was slowly drawn
before the Mistress of the Sun.

Her sable breath was caught by day
locked in his snare, their paths aligned
Diluting Earth in passion’s haze
Her soul absorbed, her love entwined.

From out...

Heat Lightening
by Michael R. Burch

Each night beneath the elms, we never knew
which lights beyond dark hills might stall, advance,
then lurch into strange headbeams tilted up
like searchlights seeking contact in the distance . . .

Quiescent unions . . . thoughts of bliss, of hope . ....

Broken-Hearted Caressing Sorrow



Where do you bring a broken heart, damaged dreams that won’t depart?
Where do you go when things fall apart, serving silent screams a la carte?
What do you do with a saddened soul, within a virulent void a skinless sole?
What do you do when...

All I can do this day
Is watch the pouring rain
As its march beats odes of war parade

And enlists an army of my imaginations
As out of the window
I can’t help but set the stage

To watch the lives that spirals down
Like an insect upon its death
And on...

My hand hangs from the stirring wheel, 
Insensible, to the mind noosed reasoning work
and nature’s clock repressing the other wrist of a confined ideal
My eyes declare thru the windshield an undemonstrative lurk
and conscience waterboarded by a stimulant
The faded, light and long strokes depict
A thinker stifled,...

The Conundrum

It is the noblest honour to serve,
But the most natural thing to love, 
I present to you this conundrum,
Which is better to love or to serve?
To love is natural, to serve is noble,
Yet there exists no greater foe than these,
Man must choose,
If love triumph...

Cruel World seeks hope within lies
We turn our heads as Mother Earth cries

Like birds, hope may fly when confronting lies.
Wee butterfly gives a try
to bring Hope back unscathed.

It flits over meadows, purple hills;
stops for a drink of rose nectar sweet.
Enlists the help of a summer...

Whether it’s Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines,
The men and women in service protect your rights.
For some, it’s a job… for others, it’s a dream.
To be part of a group that helps you sleep at night.

Those in the military put their lives in danger.
They’re willing...

The house exists near a river that rolls
The river moves quickly under the knolls
Around the bend that seems to flood often
The house has life that seems to happen

Working within the sections of delight
Fishing comes often and seems to be right
Having the roughness of life come...

Fashion and shape
Tale or story;
Let lines live well

Words on a page
Ink in e-world;
Tell in a yarn

~~~~~~~~~


Go beyond fact
Align sure act;
Words echo tact

~~~~~~~~


Look for that twist
In simple gist;
Thought now enlists

~~~~~~~~~


Be beyond blame
Niche nurtures name;
Spell sensuous same

Time travels true
Calmly choose cue;
Yield yonder you

~~~~~~~~~


Watch words wander
Play primes paper;
Words...
