Best Fault Poems

Fingers tremble,
like an alcoholic without a bottle.
His pen is graceful in its slumber,
but imprisoned ink desires to be free -
intoxicated by his poetry.

Lips are forever silent,
in the absence of inspiration.
Isolated in the boredom of blankness -
congested to think enough, 
struggling to feel enough.

Fault is not...

self made disaster

I was there for you through 
thick and thin 
Opened my arms up 
to welcome you in 
As if I could feel when 
you was down and out
Dropped everything for 
you without a doubt

Then to be played by you 
without any thought
When you led me...

In the depths of my own fault, I find,
A longing to mend what's left behind,
No blame to cast upon your name,
For in my own mirror, I see my shame.

With pleading eyes, I seek your gaze,
Yet you turn away, lost in a haze,
If only you could...

It's all my fault, you see,
I'm the one who did this to me
I say "I love you" when I don't 
Promise to do things when I know I won't 
Everything I love, I throw away
And then as I wander astray
I never even stop to
Find my...

Determined to see Wimble done
She turned on her TV for fun
Net Assault
Thump Thump "Fault!"
Ilene's air conditioner won!...

It hurts so much when we look to each other 
and you don’t look the same way 
It hurts so much when we talk to each other 
and you end our conversation 
It hurts when I hear you laughing 
with a second voice which isn’t...

         Humans are lazy
always blaming someone else

The fault line streamed from the Nazi state,
The Jewish Shoah, Holocaustic fate.
Mongolia, Croatia, and Belarus,
Humanity had no excuse.

Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan, 
The full scope of terror's sad sway,
In Cambodia they pointed their fingers
To where the horrid 'Killing Fields' lay.

The dire purges in Mother Russia,...

There was a great asthenospheric disruption
Followed by parallel volcanic eruptions
There was a great, abrupt tectonic shift
In a moment, a million years of continental drift

The ground shook like a wet dog out of water 
Mother earth swatted her sons and daughters
The fault lines re-created all notions...

Fault Of Thyself

For every man there is reward.
For every man there are consequences.
Which kind of man are you?
 
For the brave man, there is honor.
For the cowardice man, there is desertion.
For the stone man, there is isolation.
For the weeping man, there is no shame.
For the...

I know how many tears you have shed 
And what kind of life you have led
I know how many disappointments
Have made you sigh
And how many loses have made you cry 
I know how hard it is to be rejected 
And how sad it is to...

When life's not going right
Guess you could say it's going wrong
Do what it is I always do
Pick up the telephone
Dial my favorite number
They've never steered me wrong
Of course that number is
1-800-Not My Fault

In any situation
At any given time
#1 on my speed dial
Connects me directly to...

In my mind
Where silent thoughts
Reveal the truth, the depths
Of my hopes, dreams and feelings…
There is a piercing voice
One who announces my flaws
The faults which remind me that
I am human and humans err
Sometimes badly
Other times, sadly
And still other times, madly
I am a human and I stumble
Both...

Not all my faults were mine
See, if you follow every line, 
Cracked yearly by life's quakes 
After every turn she takes 

What did not fall apart
Was recycled, to restart,
Not knowing now or then
She'd fractured, yet again 

Basking on bone and skin
A wrinkle forms, o, so...
