Best Enquires Poems


Highly Intelligent Gluteus Maximus

The student sits in third row last chair
His foolish words of attention are blurted everywhere
He understands not the value of listening
For he seeks laughs and howls for the teacher’s off>< pissing
Until finally the day of teacher student conflict
The teacher enquires of the student’s gimmicks 
Young man confronting the joker for all to hear
Your gall for the learned compliance suitable for classroom learning
Indicates your true ability of one of extremely asinine qualities
I must admit as all the students are listening here
You are the greatest highly intelligent gluteus Maximus I ever did hear

The Reluctant Repenter

Say your prayers and sit up straight,
Get into that confessional box to wipe clean your slate.
Make sure you get all those wicked sins off your chest,
The lord will only welcome those who are wholesome and blessed.

In pitch black silence you sit, your final thoughts to gather
Before being shocked into repentant mode with a blast of “in the name of the 
father..”
“How long has it been?” the priest enquires, he must know you will lie?
You take the first figure that pops into your head then you divide, not multiply!

Those awful sins that lay heavy on your heart,
From your reluctant mouth they slowly depart.
You tell of bouts of swearing and theft from mammys purse,
And stealing a bag of crisps from your sister, now what could be worse?

“That’s is all father” are 4 short words you triumphantly announce,
The priest mumbles some mystic latin verse then a Hail Mary to pronounce.
Finally your chore is done and you are asked to go in peace,
You gleefully skip out of the box and celebrate release!

Men, Money and Morals

Parents killed brutally 
Matter trivial
Upper caste involved
Compensation announced
Forty lakhs 
Reason
Placating minorities
Two sons
Then minors
Now turn 18
Eligible for compensation
Sumit younger
Enquires for money
“Some more paperwork,”
Suneet clarifies
Less than a year
Separating the two
“Why 40?”
Sumit further asks
“Twenty each-
Mom and Dad,”
Suneet explains
Two shots fired
Suneet gets killed
“Why settle for 20
Why not 60?”
Sumit coldly remarks
“But now
The hard task-
Pass on this murder
As caste war,”
Sumit says nonchalantly.

Fight Or Flight

Fight or flight?
My body enquires
No, I laugh
I've just woken up

Do you need me now?
My body presses 
No, I explain
I’m just off to work

I'm sure you need me
My body insists 
No, I assure
I'm just with a friend 

You must need a hand 
My body decides
No! I argue
I'm just driving home 

Don't ignore me forever
My body threatens 
No? I whisper
I just want to relax

I'm here, I'm ready
My body compels 
No! I cry
I just want to sleep



Good morning, sunshine
You look tired today
But, no fear
I'm here again 

The shake of your fingers
The race of your heart
The blood pulsing, forcing
Itself through your veins 
The quiver of your voice
The sickness in your stomach
The restlessness
Insatiable
I'm here again
I'm raring to go

Please, no, I beg
I'm just trying to live

Dante's Inferno

Dante the depths thou searchest deep

Amidst  the pergatory sleep

Neither living yet not dead

Torn between the sheets of red

Enter and ye lose all hope

Spirit world spirit folk

Inside the dark and black despair

Not leaving till he finds her there

Fraid of nothing his soul may take

Enquires of hell, pleads for her sake

Restless wanting she must be close

Not retreating from what he desires the most

On otherside  craves see her ghost.

Granny's Love

GRANNY'S LOVE:

On every matter, she keeps me counseled,
So that any wrong plans would be cancelled. 
When I'm down, she gets me revived,
And by her love, I strongly get survived.
Nurtured me from childhood as a great granny;
Empowering me from a boy to a good daddy,
Inculcating into me a well-set power,
For me to stand as an outstanding Tower.
Urging me to pray and study the bible,
In order for my life to be equipped and able.
She's such a selfless person,
Who regards the state of her family.
Abysmally, her dream got missing,
Which truly affected her life so badly.
She went through a tough childhood,
And It's evident in her speech and livelihood.

Hence, don't wish anyone to also go through same,
As she's fighting for our future to be safe.
Whenever she hears from me,
The conversation holds a good endgame. 
Her heart grows happily, and it gently  beats.
Ever wishing the best for me, regardless,
Since she don't want my life to be acrimonious. 
When she don't hear from me for a while,
Then she holds me with speculations  as she enquires. 
Initially, I used to grow mad at her sometimes,
Making her mostly feeling worried.
But she forgave me without even me saying sorry.
I thought she was still treating me like a child,
Until later, I've realised her words are life guide.
I thank Jehovah for my granny,
And I pray she keeps blessing her for me.


Clairvoyance

the fire encircled me
n i was melting
away into a vanishing mass
burnt into ashes, then
wake up like like a phoenix later
i knew i slept like a baby
her persistent warmth,the
enthusiasm of the youth the
loving enquires n the innocent
bashfulness awoke me
up from the deep slumber
the sun has come on
shining brightly
on top of our heads,looking unto her
my eyes blurred
and the tears of joy rolled down the cheeks
i could feel her emotions ,her thoughts now
clairvoyance

Under the Glass Moon Eyes

Upon the porch overlooks the stellar way, 
Nothing but darkness, on the great stellar way
Over the dead sky, pendent hang cold bright Moon
To warn whoever to walk and lay down soon

A lone stranger comes to us, when gloomy day
Then stops by the old porch, in tattered array
Enquires softly what hour should befall the shade
I answer him, though was quite dazed and confused

“Good traveller, to tell you, I wish I knew
To say with certainty, reach the House of Fate
On this stellar way, we live only by day
By night we’re lost in the winter Gods forsake
Under the Glass Moon, we seem to loose what’s right
To the joy we haven’t and the tears never cried
All there is to us, but a moment delight
The blood horrid became the pleasure we’ve desired
Dear stranger, to be honest, if I could tell
 Under its pale eyes, we seem at lost ourselves”

“Under the Glass Moon Eyes we sure lose something
It’s not of ours to lose by the moonlit ground
I have noticed sooner darkness’ a becoming
From chill night, a warm shelters hard to be found
Ere this forlorn cold constrains me to callous weight
I must ask whether your kindness ‘d let me stay
For weariness’s had my visions worn and blurred 
This journey of mine shall see no end, I fear
The storms should come, perhaps at distance closer  
If I could burden you till morrow comes near?”

He stands there long, in silence, gestures bemused
“Good traveller, to tell you, I wish I knew
To say with certainty, reach the House of Fate
On this stellar way, we live only by day
By night we’re lost in the winter Gods forsake…”
“Under the Glass Moon,” he mutters, “comes the shade”

The drifter then looks into his dread, vacant eyes;
Their emptiness accursed shares the endless way
“Never again!” linger on those breathless sighs
And into the dark night, his twilight steps fade

Premium Member Fright Time

Steeple lit by lightning loud
Moon that's full peeks round a cloud
Trudging through the churchyard mud
Unwise shortcut: THUD, THUD, THUD!

The sound is muted ’neath my feet
No one there I wish to meet
Sodden hair and soaked to skin
Contemplate my every sin

Thunder, lightning, crackling air
Time to hightail out of there
Prickling skin: can’t hang around
Portentous skies and groaning ground

Slipping sliding progress thwarted
Planned escape at once aborted 
Through the storm the church bells chime
Shadowed figure… asks the time 

Where he came from I don’t know
Neither did I see him go
Stood alone in worsened shower 
Still his voice enquires the hour

Flight, not fight my first reaction
Once my feet acquired traction
Reached the exit P.D.Q.
Asked the time by who knows who

Homeward through the icy rain
Darkness asks the time again
Local paper on the mat
Front page headline tells us that
Town remembers Howard Peak,
Funeral was held this week

Police have found no weapon nor
The watch that he was murdered for

Premium Member The Letter Join In the Conversation

Mary had received a letter.
She read it aloud to her friend Netta.
It was to invite her to go with Ben,
As done last year to the town fair again.

Netta said “aren’t you going with Joe?”
Mary replied ”He did ask me to go.
Why don’t the four of us go together?”
Oh I so hope its lovely weather.

“Which boy would you be with?” Netta enquires. 
Mary laughed “Whatever transpires”
She smiled.”Ben and I did have fun last year
He paid for everything such a dear,

We had hot dogs and went on every ride, 
It would be really hard for me to decide.
I like Joe, he’s easy to get to know.
So is it agreed, four of us will go?

Fine, lets answer Ben’s letter straight away.
Now what shall we say?
Thank you Ben, how sweet of you.
Netta is coming too”

Unsafe District For Cops Strict

Meant enquires consequent 
On ken Sampson The Eloquent
Wishing now to himself acquaint 
With the conflicts that were frequent, 
Where his people are domiciled, 
Currently to odds reconciled, 
So that he might about them speak 
And The Still-Kept Hidden leak…

In the darkest drain slain body,
Not long traced to B Goodie
By some folks loved for being civil
But by their Union ruled ‘Evil’:
To all Good Remarks had sniveled 
And on Grave Issues had driveled 
Some see A Demon just vanquished
He wouldn’t have Swipes relinquished 
 Goodie’s killer is distinguished:
Has Satan’s Fire extinguished!...

Ken has The Final Picture grabbed 
Slain Goodie was tortured, first nabbed!
Ken would treat not ‘Emergency
From Juvenile’s Delinquency:
This is about Unsafe District; 
Every cop to wear a face strict…

Shes the Girl On the Phone

Just a voice on the phone
And a breezy hello.
And a name to be etched on my mind
This call been connected direct to my heart
And how can I help, she enquires.
Returning my heart would be a good start.
She’s the girl on the phone 
With that breezy hello
How’s my day she enquires.
Made, is my simple  reply
Would I be interested in 
Is what I think what i heard 
but its only her that I’m interested in.
is there anything else I can help with today
well can you fix a broken heart 
she’s the girl on the phone
with that breezy hello
who’s just disconnected my heart .

BRITAIN

Britain
 Why did they fight for our freedom of speech? 
when we as a nation are afraid to speak 
Led by a government that’s corrupt and weak 
the future for our children looks dark and bleak.
 
What’s happened to this great nation of ours?
Once so powerful, 
now it’s us who carry the scars
more concerned with our image and fancy cars
Then protecting young defenceless children from the countless grooming gangs and  peadophiles, 
The police and  MPS are to scared to charge.


Young British men fighting for twisted Islamic authors,
sharpening their knives to behead innocent news reporters,
it’s time for the government to stand up and end these slaughters, 
before more men don’t return home, to their sons wives or daughters,
murderers and rapists infiltrating our borders, hiding behind a smile with no care for our orders.

We're no longer a nation that prides itself on earning,
cashing in our next giro cheque seems more concerning 

when’s the system going to stop giving, and start learning or 
will it take another Philpott to leave his kids burning? 

A nation of scroungers has become the impression, 
with a work shy attitude and a Jeremy Kyle obsession,
happy for you to work to pay for their homes and  possessions, 
while there’s soldiers  left homeless in a state of depression. 

When will there be justice for the victims of all these terror attacks? 
we shouldn’t have to walk the streets looking over our backs,

The victims of Grenfell deserve more respect,
but with the government holding their own enquires what do you expect ?

It’s time for us to unite and end this frustration,
because after all they fought to keep this a great British nation, 
it’s not about race, sexuality or religion 
we’re all one people a part of one creation,

Cancer Alzheimer's Park

The cancer in my head

Patently obviously 

Is ever so slowly

Taking over

Me

Day bye day

So here's to you

Al Parkinson

My imaginary childhood friend

Who as a single child

I could truly count on

And kept me company

Way back then

For kindly taking the time to revisit

Me once again

As you are the only one

Through all and everything

I have been put through and endured 

Has never once left me on my own

Stayed ever present at my side 

Till this very present moment 

Where we find ourselves now 

Quivering trembling in fear

And as old as you are now in terms of age

Reverting deeply back to whence upon 

You were a child yourself 

Trapped seemingly unable to escape

The confinement of inside your head

Praying endlessly for nothing less or more

Than when someone

Most
Especially

A close loved one enquires

Can you remember

Do you in fact know 

Who you are 

Or I am
