Best Handless Poems
CrucifishThe fish is a creature cold and wet
Hooked by line and trawled by net,
Easy to catch and yummy to eat
Fried in oil or seared by heat.
I must admit I eat my share
So my guilt I sadly bear.
Handless and legless they strive to survive
Yet they are...

It's NothingIt's nothing
Nothing more than a slump
Or a low
A mere depression
So I am told
But it's deeper than that
It's more of a chasm
So dark you can't see your hand in front of your face
Feeling to see if you have a face
Feeling faceless
Feeling handless
You can't pull yourself out...

A True SoulmateHand in hand glued I walk with you
I am a waveless sea without you
I am a honeyless bee without you
I am a rootless tree without you
You are my fate a true soulmate
I am a feelingless kiss without you
I am a peaceless niche without you
I am...

Home Sweet Hell"That also has a steep drop off the far side of Home Sweet Hell" said my soulless guide as he pointed in the direction of the nearby screams.
I could see what resembled silhouettes or smeared shadows of something being thrown or tossed off...

WomanhoodFragile but tough
Creature,a woman,an
Embodiment of glory and
Honor with heart deeper
Than deepest sea;full
Of mysteries.
Mother of all humans.
Mystery herself,emanates
power and
confidence-alas!the
Egocentric man has
Centuries tried to strip
Her of splendor.
She in the cage of
Subjugation patiently
Stayed,never
complaining But...

Counting My Blessings
I was complaining about walking,
Until I met a man with no feet.
I was complaining of too much talking,
Until I met a man who couldn’t speak.
I was complaining of getting old,
Until I passed a baby's grave.
I was complaining my hands were cold,
Until I saw a handless...

If this is how the even; flows:
The wind is good tonight, but i'm tired of the chill( fresh; an interesting definition that wouldn't be helpful if added to that sentences) like a handless slap:( ..cause that was better..)a threadless cloth that covers.

Southern HospitalitySOUTHERN HOSPITALITY
cool wind and red souls —
the passion-keepers
of the Superbowl
couples under warm blankets
converse about commercials
thumbs up and thumbs down
inside company pokes holes
into the crackling wood
of Southern hospitality
though none can claim
this as their birthplace
we cover North, West
and Palestine. Sings Gladys
with honor and respect
the National Anthem
hands over...

A Tipping Balance
We all have moments when happiness rings true
When everything seems to finally be going right
No nimbus clouds to spoil blue skies or the view
until fate steps in and our lives turn dark as night.
What efforts we've made to stay in balance is lost.
No matter what...

The Man With One EyeI met a man not long ago
Who had a funny mark:
He only had one eye, you see,
But his demand was stark.
He said to me, “Now listen here,
You silly, little man.
Make one remark about my eye
And I’ll cut off your hand.”
It struck me odd that he...

Hr Huff and PuffThey called themselves
the "Moody Glues"
like jets in flight
higher than kites
huffing to no note deadbeat drummers
forever marching covertly across handless
fields of teenage want.
Tubing--a way countering neigh-boring hoods
of muddle class clones, quickly learning the
brown bag cost
Fuming to convey their High brain frost.
Dig it daddyo, cool beans, the...

Those Days You Were DyingI
Is Harmony the trace thou leave in dance?
And will whose hear quivers thy neck,
When from thy silent kiss will hence
The breath of light and yet its wreck.
II
Where are thou? from a echo lace
The frailty's jar of pure and dense
Waves on which is reflect'd face
whose brow...

Rhyme
NumbnessI’m heartless.
I don’t know where my heart is.
Hateful,
I’m looking for my happiness.
But I can’t move,
I’m footless.
Grounded feeling low
like the ground is.
I’m guideless.
and I’m eyeless,
but I can see the pain that’s within this.
So I’m paralyzed and blinded.
You can’t see the...
