Best Illusory Poems

Silently you keep tempting me to give in
But your tale of easy life I don't believe,
Though I lack interest in your help for me
I 'm humbled deeply by your almighty reach.

I know you exist somewhere out there
While so many are chasing you everywhere.
Why you keep...

In an illusory vision, I perceive the moon                       
High aloft the world in midnight's pitch,
polished to a satiny sheen; burnished pearl,
a solitaire gem...

:




they say that all places are the same:
the drought the sertao is on the face of an old grandfather
spring on the butterfly's wing
all snow is kilimanjaro,
every tower is Eiffel, every fog is london
all heat is volcano,
all rain comes in mars
and comes from Rio de Janeiro,

The birds all around tell her
it's just an illusion.
There is no diamond;
there is no charming prince 
imprisoned in 
the body of this dove.

Partially blinded by the 
gorgeous mask,
but roughly reminded 
of an assignment due
this Friday, 
she reaches out
with her mind to
record every little
detail in this...

Am I now destined to remain
in this cold realm that binds me here?
Can I not flee this dark domain
or make reality appear?

Strange illusory vagaries
distort my thoughts and crowd my mind.
Foul evil spreads her vile disease
scorching my eyes to make me blind.

This lurid illusory realm
attempts to...

Illusory truth you cut through me;
'Be Kind.'
Doesn't seem to get you where you should be;
Humankind wastes away surrounded 
plastic words discarded into a serene ocean;
Polluting the environment;
Reused, recycled, but never reduced;
Still we try;
Cordial behavior fades from memory
washed away by the waves; Toxic stays;
Muddy are our...

So many paths
Reflecting on broken mirror of certainty 
Someone asks- who is poetry?
Reply comes- God!
Whining- what is poet?
Mumbling- to know the nothingness!

Original is always pronounced unseen
The vowel is influential with consonant
Consonant carries a shaped with the unshaped 

Who and what is truth?
Neither vowel nor consonant!...

ILLUSORY LOVE

From the fake inmost heart
Their came vain promises
Raising the hope of a lover

Restless with emotions
Of love for a bloody liar and hypocrite
Never knew it's full of deceit

Beloved one is glitzy gold
Love story lives unfold

Is it truly death they fear, or the unraveling of their illusory self-importance,
as they tread through existence, erecting fragile monoliths of their ephemeral legacy,
believing their names will resonate through ages, as if permanence were a divine gift,
a privilege born not of vanity, but of an...

u play the part of death so well
The drama queen - welcome to home sweet hell
Ring a bell
Yeah I know your tell
Succubus nocturnal always on the make
Far too nefarious to suffer a mistake
Dressed to thrill, eyes that will
Priceless, will never be left to pay the...
