Best Indiscreetly Poems

“what inspires you to write
such indiscriminate indiscretions
like that?” he speaks to himself 
and thinks 

not long 
without thinking,
unnaturally he feels,
something, so
 
he promptly writes 
it all down 
without a further
doo-diddley-day

there you go 
a muse 

the muse amused
reads his take on it all
and up her mind...

SELF REFLECTIONS

These are poems about mirrors, images, self-image, reflections, impressions and self-reflection. 

Self Reflection
by Michael R. Burch 

for anyone struggling with self-image

She has a comely form
and a smile that brightens her dorm ...
but she's grossly unthin
when seen from within;
soon a griefstricken campus will mourn.

Yet she'd...

Am I not a dimly lit candle?
Left without such handle...to bare the winter cometh,
Arise and let thy spirit conjugate...from those who magistrate,
And take thee to thy plummet
Alas” if she had affections and warm youthful blood”...and no such fears,
For my love for thee would not be...

There on the couch she snoozes and lay
Easing her back from a tiresome day, 
Put on music to entice her imaginations
And there in the forest she found herself in deep hallucination...

Then he comes, with a picnic basket on his hand
Blanket, aged wine and a flower...

Running over full speed to the tree, 
The largest of all the items, 
He clapped his hands excitedly together, 
Three times rhythmically,
And smiled characteristically. 

He got there and hugged the fir,  
But its branches stabbed and hurt, 
Such that all he could do was...

Behind the stillness of space
the wind hides its self. 

Yet, in the void timed space 
we can feel the chill she left exposed.

The moon stands peeking
through the shades of clouds;

Indiscreetly opening and closing
the sky’s celestial blades.

The loneliness of silence
hangs in space.

Winter has chosen 
her bedfellow....

Demi-gods,directives in whispers
pact made in secrecy,done indiscreetly

Originally defiled,by those whom beguiled
enslave those of light,to serve their might

Brood of the past in constant war
mandated slaughter of each,'till no more

Nature of nature in opposition
each in force gaining position..............

Bombs blasting indiscreetly
Love seeking shelter from the fallout.

A   BUTTERFLY   BLOWING   BUBBLES

I was catching bubbles in a butterfly net for beauty’s sake
Needless ‘tis to say sans any success
The second I secured one it would summarily break
And I left with but bubbles that burst to confess

First I was...

Ronnie and Nancy Regan Together Again

This isn't exactly the way it was meant 
to be, but what really is? You will receive 
the general idea in my poem. If the President 
is also Commander in Chief, how many stars 
and stripes does he get to...

Behind the stillness of space
the wind hides its self; 
yet in the void and timed space 
we can feel the chill she left behind.

The moon stands peeking
through the shades of clouds;
indiscreetly opening and closing
the sky’s celestial blades.

The loneliness of silence hangs in space;
winter has chosen...

Eagle-Rare is The Union,
All her members’ arms pinion, 
Not with a from-behind arm twist  
But thrills that can dare a long list …

You join her you pray to not leave,
You indiscreetly go ahead to leave,
You never cease to piteously grieve
Or emotive sighs endlessly heave....

Love is no picnic, it's more like hell in a hand basket. It's ridiculous and reckless and I'm convinced that it's tragic.  It's both devastating and deadly when she leaves you where you stand. Cut open and bleeding because your hearts was in her...

Contemporary hunters wielding 21st century weapons of influence

Firing indiscreetly upon blindfolded hostages that double as their clients

Mutilating their customer case before gutting them with ease

once they're expendable


Feasting upon the impoverished entrails

until there is not a shred of identifiable human flesh

Disturbingly convenient as it is prevalent

Once...

I am the cheese that fed many
The bread that allowed others to starve
I am the warmth
That haunts the man without a home
I am the cold that comforts the ill
The sickness that drives individuals to want
I am the integrity that lays about a dawn
The wonders that...
