Best Escaped Poems

Where are you now
Why have you escaped my dreams
You’ve been gone awhile and I missed you so
I visited our place every night 
I scouted every corner 
I stood by and waited out in hope you’d come 
I did double rounds just to be sure I...

the fat turkey walked
         slowly, pecking through the yard
                 escaped Thanksgiving

My name escaped me just this summer past,
In crispy twilight air with lilac breath;
Soft Monet breeze discovered, beauty’s last,
A hollow season now, vanilla death;

An unrhymed Shakespeare sonnet wintry still
Whose lines compare me to a fallen sun,
Not William, though, appears, nor even Bill,
When I do look...

who taught that dog his tricks
the revolving door that was purchased
with a line up a mile long to watch it work
bought the devil an alarm clock
and a game of collecting bells called killing time
made his dreams come true
convincing him i had ended the world
and was...

I just read on the internet news,
about a terrified fugitive bull,
escaping from a Queens, NY slaughterhouse,
running through the suburbs for his life,

Police shot it several times with a tranquilizer gun,
where the bull finally became too drowsy to run,
hearing reports that an animal preserve would take...

Barely escaped
as a bear
chased me down the hall
my eyes wide open
   for the rest
of the night

Bearing my soul
to the roar
of laughter…
seemed
uproariously serious
in the depths
of R.E.M.

Instead, they exact their ransom, and hold you to memory...

Could 
should 
would 
rude 
mood 
crude 
and then
pulchritude with root word Paul care
To a back effect 
where city provided water through the water faucet clogged
you had your last montage, fixed there, in a fix, succinct,
indifferent you. Not to define those as trauma and flash backs
You...

memories escaped 
from the subconscious 
mind were they had 
been hidden away 
for years 
recapture the memories 
repressing and
suppressing them
once more 
locking them back up 
once again in 
their mental prison...

I escaped outside for peace 
Among the flowers and the grasses
And breathed – and layed my burden down
On my corrective glasses...

The clock ticks twelve and sounds awake
The dream of cinderella fades
Back to pots and rags and drags,
Back to fake end serenades...

Escape
rondel/roundel by Geoffrey Chaucer
translation by Michael R. Burch

Since I’m escaped from Love and yet still fat,
I never plan to be in his prison lean;
Since I am free, I count it not a bean.

He may question me and counter this and that;
I care not: I will...
