Best Farther Poems

Closer We Get, The Farther We Look Back

Sad dying embers of yesterday's feast 
interest and feed me not in the least 
For the hearty joys that future shall give 
heartens me to strive forever to live 

Great memories of my family's past 
flow blessedly with...

It's tough when father's head is cracked open.
Mother says, "You and I were chosen."
Secrets spill out like a spritzing soda.
My head is warm with that smoldering odor.

Tranquilized but refusing to sleep.
Father jabs the needle deep.
Her images inspire me.
Father races but cannot flee.

Mother stretches far and...

They always tell me "stop seeing what isn't there"
I say, look harder... past the appearance... through to the bare
They look at me confused, stuck like a deer in a glare
Seemingly refusing to adjust their stare
Still dumbfounded they ask "where?"
I say, past the acrylic nails, color...

You made me listen without a spoken voice

Shook my earth without fates choice

Blew my mind without a single breath

took me to heaven without the pains of death

Chilled me to the bone without a shave of ice

Broke my heart no once but twice

Tasted my essence without...

The halogen street lights
are calling you by name,
Mr. Farther.

They see you in your miserable motions
and hear your insides eating themselves.
They want you to join them in
lofty indifference, as they are
above the atrocities of this age,
and they act as an anchor for others,
like you,
and also like...

My farther could not fulfill a father’s duty 
My farther could only fulfill his own pleasures 
.Women
.Sex 
.Alcohol
 
He couldn't love us the way he loved them
Coming home early hours in the morning
Mother goes silent   whenever he was around 
Wiping away her tears...

Life is a lonely forest where you live,
With your soul and sole tattered,
Life and love denied,
All for my sake,
And father, farther you go.

Like pressed above, you never grow taller,
This way, in you go,
Door gets too high and the way too wide,
All for my sake,
Yet the...

Angels are apart
not a part of us
Before our time
Outside auric space
The energy in form
creates a pleasant face
to ease us
please us
Saying they are sent by God
Moses
Allah
Krishna
Jesus
The Serpent god
still resides within
Wrapping itself around original sin
keeps us looping life
in a restrictive spin
until we untangle from the matrix
that locks...

the sun and the moon
both shine there light
in the day there is one light
and at night there is more than the eye can see
in the day you see but days
at night you see billions of years...

FATHER- FARTHER I COME TO THEE THE CLOSER I AM TO THEE-
Father, O’ Lord I come to thee
Farther I come to thee
O’ Lord I come, I come O’ God I come
Father, farther I come I do so run I come unto thee
O’ Lord I come,...

Which Stretches Farther
By Franklin Price
2/9/2017

Which stretches farther, skin or rubber?
Answer discovered by a Bubba
Helps with that ethnicity
To know of elasticity

Did his research with much care
Bred a donkey and a mare
Then tied his ass off to a post
And walked five miles so he could boast

Bubba thought...

falling farther away from humanity
redefining your reality
who wants to go back there?

all i want
is what i don't have
isn't that too much to ask?

it all moves too fast
i just wanna slow down
and enjoy the ride...

To disconnect oneself
you push apart, from the stasis,
like flesh from the bones.
Coming home becomes dreadful
when you discover yourself.

A dark energy impels you
in a cosmos which was drifting
towards eternity. A fight between
space & time ultimately settles
for a second life.

Paralysed mind goes into dementia.
A riverbed, waterless, where...

Dedicated too my father's memory:  



Strong hands hold a babe at birth 
As a giant looks down upon his child with love and a smile.

A toddler is picked up by strong hands and a kind word , reassurance and wisdom is shared .

A strong...
