Best Facilitated Poems


Premium Member The Atheist
The Atheist believes in Rationality
   He mocks all religious emotionality

Calls it the opiate of the masses, pie-in-the-sky
   The snake oil of sinister ministers, insidiously sly

Whereas Human Reason, the Atheist confidently opines
   Leads man -- become god -- to outcomes...

Premium Member Excessive Compulsion
And her voice is the tingle of upbeat blues, 
the winsome rap amid my heavy footsteps, past 2 am...
She holds my hand as I’d never wake up 
after twilight, drinking to the end of a broken bottle, 

How those arms cuddle me like my hair...

Premium Member My Son John
My son, John, was an engaging fellow, who was barely ten years old;
And liked frogs, marbles and playing ball, in luscious, noontime gold.

My son, John, was rather a dreamer, like the lazy cloud, sky features.
My son, John, was a leader, like a plum sky moon,...

AU COURANT AU FAIT – THE HEART OF IMAGINATION ABREAST

Has an eighteen acres in total size
It is not that easy for us to find
But if we’ll get in there, it’s a big surprise!

We need to explore first the side of the mountain
Be patient and...

My Bright Orange Rugby Shirt
The bright orange rugby shirt I had, 
When I was fourteen, fifteen, sixteen and seventeen,  
Was my trophy and my pride and joy, 
Never to be deprived of me, 
Even if I complained to my parents or to their friend, 
To have been seen...

The Preparation of the Wise Men - the Camels
They always made me happy, 
The camels of the wise men, 
The slowness of their footsteps, 
Their self-sufficient ben. 

Camels meant there was time, 
For the three wise men to think, 
To ponder upon their task, 
To review their role as a link. 

They were...

Premium Member People of Faith
It's hard to say where and when our town's People of Faith Cooperative started.

After all,
we have all emerged together,
and are still emerging
people of TaoGod,
right?

Our faith includes defining our still humanizing species
as among those not capable of autonomously regenerating ourselves
into our divine health functions,
or even our...

Do I Like You
Do I Like You? 

Do I like the amount you put into my mouth? 
Do I like how you wash me in the shower? 
Do I like how you put my clothes on - strangely? 
Do I like your order for my bracelet, then my watch...

Long Before Isis
Thirty years ago, long before ISIS started executing Kurds, Muslims and Christians, I hired a Pakistani Muslim as an art director in Chicago. I was an Irish Catholic editor putting out a small national magazine. I hired him because his work samples were good and...

Fear
What is fear?
It clutches and binds you;
Its clinch constricts your conscience and gestures.
It degrades and damages you;
Its triumph abolishes your own proficiency to prosper.
It stops and holds you;
Its impeccable knack of holding you still is impassable.
It overcomes and you surrender;
Its will to thwart your approach...

Love Is Blind
You don’t see the defects,
You only see the muscle,
And when he is accused,
You cause a kerfuffle.

Adjacent to beauty, truth,
That youth so lively and vital,
Vibrant with colour spread,
He speaks with his amble. 

Two sociology’s merge, 
Into one lovely scene,
And technology assists, 
With where you’ve been. 

Having...

Internet Iniquity, Injustice and Impertinence
Iniquity, impunity, injustice invade Internet interaction
Alongside odious obliteration and cunning coercion
Facilitated and militated with unabashed attention and intention   

To minutest details
To misspell the capture of heads and tails
Which in essence sells injustice and slays sails

The freedom Internet users
Ought to enjoy without being the...
