Best Follow This Line Poems
All My FaultsNot 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...

Remembering Your Lost Love AgainMany many years from now on a busy morning,
suddenly for a moment Mallika my name in your mind,
it will force you to stop and look at the sky
and from your heart will come out a deep sigh,
memories of love,
suddenly so fresh like a 'dewed' morning...

Babylonia : Part Two - Noahs WalkBabylonia : Part Two -
Noah’s walk
Pandas chew bamboo, while you film them in the nude;
Red Elephants are extinct (Apart from a view).
Fly up high, escape the zoo’s!
The latest attraction is a Man named Hu.
Hu Man? Strange, he’s not humane.
Seize him and lock him up...

My Ace Up the Sleeve - In Bidens Own WordsI'm senile, demented, a has been, a dud,
At least that's the story, the Republican fad,
Yet little they know in their haste to throw dirt,
That they're helping my cause with their views so absurd.
Each arrow they fly with anger and speed
Is akin to a child that...

Forever You By Wlm Created On March 20, 2011You are the one I want
Forever and again
To brighten my day
In each and every way
You shine as bright as the sun
With the streaming rays which fall to the earth
And your smile is as beautiful
As the stars at night and the moon so bright
With you...

LiarMy poetry really does suck.
I look for true rhymes, but get stuck.
Though my meter is fine,
When you follow each line
you’ll see that they all run amok....

Exit At the Orifice**** retentive is so inventive
it thinks up things it hadn't oughter
equating intrusion with goaled incentive
requiring minutia without giving quarter
so processes demand greater complexity
measuring quantitative numbers and sets
procedures create a mess in front of me
with analysis it's as good as it gets
graphs and charts of diagonal...

Dont Ask Me TonightBell chimes on the right
Bass increases from beneath the stage
A voice enters with a milliard faces alight
Complex variables follow the line
The house lifts weight from the ground, accelerating aloud
Steadily a breeze comes to be a storm
As the world purges out a mouth of...

A Child's HeartHe sat on the floor, cutting away,
with scissors too big for his hand.
The clippings of paper, littered the floor,
like countless grains of sand.
Perfection for him, just had to be reached,
or this was a waste of his time.
It would all, just be so easy for him,
if...

Outside the sun is grand
In which I love to stand
Soaking up all the rays
Hope it stays this way for days
The breeze is cool
Like a shining Jewel
The noise is so quiet
You wish you could buy it
How heavenly I feel
It tis the real...

Last Nightbackyard barbeques and late night rendevous
snaeaking over your houose to get some
pool parties and card games flirting for fun
taking hits off the joint and rehearsing the art of war
looking at you like i never seen you before
sipping on hennessey and letting my mind go free
watching...

A Letter To Myself At 18Dear Adam, who just left high school,
This is your older self, you fool.
You survived Northport High, yeah, great, dude,
Now come the years you get a clue.
First off, Grad Night needs to be skipped!
Trust me on how you have been tipped.
You'll be drugged, humiliated and stabbed...

Political CelebrityPolitical Celebrity

Political celebrity, lets you have your way.
All the networks want you, it really helps their day.
Increases all their ratings, just to show your face.
The others, politicians, are not even in the race.
To say you are outspoken, would be very understated.
Quite a breath...

SaviorI'm caught between my heart
and my feelings
the insanes logic slowly revealing
the battlefield drenched with mistakes
made
not nearly enough the price to be paid
a calming word,
transformed
a harming world
endured
a storm is drifting and quick on my tail
a confrontation of hot and cold gales
a twister...
