Best Infected Poems


Infected

Contaminated—
By everyone I’ve
ever touched.

Diseased—
By every heart
I’ve ever clutched.

Tainted—
This vessel has
begun to decay.

Soiled—
Excessive damage
I portray.

Inane—
Manic and
ready to bust.

Crazy—
No one left
for me to trust.

Dirty—
My mind and
soul combined.

Infected—
Diseased and
left behind.

Infected Minds

Hatred walking tall in the streets 
of the hearts of our 
GENERATIONS
Blood spilled painting the 
ground red
Making the evil not to feel bad 
but as VIPs Phela they now are 
walking on the red carpet
The cries shed turning into 
the welcoming melody as 
they enter the gates of hell
Drowning the happiness of this
world into a very deep well

The money gave birth to 
uMUVHANGO
That constructed hell on earth
The burning flames of 
greediness
burnt families down to ashes
when death knocks at your door
it breaks down all the latches
It doesn't matter which rout it 
took
it can come via your relatives
your blood can one day be a 
catalyst
to speed up the witchcraft 
reaction
as to give birth to wealthiness

I feel THE NEED to set free my 
fears
and let them walk tall in the 
streets 
of your minds with flyers 
proposing unity
Let's all stand up in search of 
dignity
How I long to live life vividly
In your heart as hatred intrude
on your knees fall like you just
had a heart attack but in your 
prayers
Include also the victims in his 
list

The soil swallowed the souls
of THE YOUNG AND THE 
RESTLESS
The brave ones that stood up, 
ducked and sucked bullets 
Into their bodies for our 
freedom
with nothing but stones in their 
hands
The freedom implanted laziness
and greediness in today's youth
we are not xerophytes, 
we can't survive in this dry land 
we need to fight

your journey has brought you 
into
this very dark life you are in
Wake up your mind, open up 
your eyes
there is hell and there is heaven
you are at the junction, make 
yur choice
The right choice will give you 
honor
But the wrong turn leads you to 
horror

Premium Member Infected Love -

Infected with love ~ (a collaboration with my daughter) ROYAL

BY: ROYAL

Everyone knows, yeah they know
surrounding myself with the thoughts of suicide
scars in my heart, hurting past tense, 
where have you gone, outta my sight
here is where you belong, come back.
you come and go come and go,
one day you weren't there no more.
things where good, I turn for a second 
now your gone,
you come back, just come back!
infect me with your love.
stop hurting me now, you left me wanting more.
I never showed how much I love you.

~~

BY:PD

All the pretty flowers,
Never will compare, to the passion in your eyes.
I never walked away, 
It was time for me to say goodbye....
Walking away, to another land.
Here, love is more than you'll ever understand.
I never left you alone, God had other plans.
I'm not gone, just relaxing till you arrive.
I took your infectious love with me.
If you only knew your sad injections,
Are still causing a stronger immunity.
Not even death wore-off your infection.
You never had to say it,
 I would seen it in your eyes...
Baby don't cry! 
Baby dry your eyes!
From here your still infecting me with your love.

~~

NOTE::

Premium Member Infected By the 'Bug'

Infected By The 'Bug'

Thanks to ItsSpitting, 
I’ve started caching
Come wind, rain or shine
Getting out no matter what,
Walking here and there
During the day, or even in the dark
With ItsSpitting and Sprite our Geohound
From cycle paths to muddy tracks
And water filled lanes,
Geocaching is in my blood
And until the bug does one
It’s caching all the way!

Oblivion of Unicorn Infected Existence of Fecal Matter

I once told a lie 
as I looked her in the eyes
LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
I just smashed a bowl

CB is a troll
In both sense
Wandering through minds of the unforgiven
As they irrationally spill their metaphorical hearts

Infected Leg

work
the genes are stitching
  it is the gravity of the past
the weight of planets descending
invisible uncarpeted
  stairs

it is the man on land
  in asking why the drowning man
grasps at straws

the master looks on, very perturbed,
 distracted, as if
thinking of something else
   very busy

distracted by all the great effort, all the good things,
  he has wrought , in spite of
everyone else

with their skinners in the bossman's
pocket


Irrevocably Infected

I was on a journey
The destination wasn't clear
I needed to experiment 
And challenge every fear

I was slightly unsure
But not at all lost
He lured me in with his mind
And the price of my heart it cost

I wanted to have just a taste
But then we really connected
Aside from everything I ever knew 
I was irrevocably infected

I tried to make sense of it all
Then easily dismissed the thought
I hadn't realized I was hooked
And too distracted to know I was caught

I mean, I was on a serious high
The one you always chase after
And the feeling was just so good
Like those deep bursts of sudden laughter 

It's not easy to admit
But the addiction became clear
Every time he was far away
I needed him close, needed him near

I urgently needed to detox
It was time to break away
I managed to stay clean 
For 3 weeks and 5 days

Put up all my guards
Avoided all the traps
And when I thought
I was strong enough



I easily relapsed

Love 2

Love is the most perfect disease
That can ever infect a human.
It was not made to kill, or invented
In a laboratory in Wuhan.

Love therefore's an infectious disease,
That can also be a global pandemic.
If only one man can pass it to the other,
And we all get the planet infected.

Pass it on to your neighbour with a smile,
With a handshake or even a hug.
You can also spread it with a text,
With a notebook or just tea in a mug.

It can be passed on in playgrounds,
In buses, trains and airplanes.
It can be found in schools and hospitals;
And through conversations over fences.

When you're infected it's easy to see;
You'll be happy and lively at peace with your mind.
When you start showing symptoms never be afraid
To reach to another and infect a friend.

If the whole world can have this beautiful disease
There can be no more quarrel and war.
All the people would share global peace,
And you would be happy just there where you are.

So start today! Start now, hug a friend, hug a foe!
Dress nice and covet your face with a smile.
Never engage in a quarrel or war;
The world has been longing for this for a while.

Infected Flesh

they are in my flesh 
scraping between the layers 
through my spine 
creating cavities in my mind 
gaps in memory 
and coordination 
operation needed 
and poison injected 
into my veins
they wont last longer than I 
or at least they hope 
that when we start 
to pump the poison 
into my heart 
that the pain 
is brief 
and the nirvana 
bliss
worth the wait

Ubris Affected, Infected, Respected and Projected

The scent of ascent
To dizzying heights sometimes impelled dark nights
To invade spaces and faces that sent
Shivers and quivers that brought down knights

Drunk on ubris
Expecting fame
Catalyzing a crisis
Drowning in shame

From which no escape route
Drew nigh the harder knights beat chests
When the glint from their boot
Failed tests

Reliability and validity in human warmth
Couched in solemn language
Dwelt not in vintage cloth
That couldn’t and wouldn’t conceal the seepage

Emptiness in cold hearts
Wept
In radical ramparts
Kept

Multiplying in moves so inept
Peasants and passersby 
So adept
Perceived as dry

Manifestations of lost souls
Without an agenda of sympathy and empathy
Whose gregarious goals
Suffered irreparable atrophy

Cos knights reforms they repelled
Advice for improvement they rejected
Friendly folks from vicinity they expelled
Until ubris pushed to limits of insanity knights affected, infected, respected and projected.

Stay Protected Or Will Become Infected

Horn haiku for this evening.

should stay protected
or will become infected
as was expected

Infected

Im sick of this poison you have injected,
Get it out,
Please tell me how,
Im sick of being infected.

It makes me feel numb,
Either way I haven't got anything to feel.

In this world,
We are all infected.

Un-Infected

Caught between the Scylla of illness and the Charybdis of wholeness
My reason and my belly
make a swift retreat
infected by indecision.
Side by side they stand now
silent like the dead.
I hear stranger cry
interrupting silence of the night.
Shadows of the sun sets
some new, untrodden path.
To wake, to cleanse, to make
man's spirit free. 
Across the street a lonely bird
envies my resolution. 
A gentle touch of the wind
scares it away. 
In my little walled-in garden
tree of optimism now blooms.
Luminous rays of sun 
teach me a new lesson
Bring yourself to your roots.
To manifest reason's grace
I hide the biggest residence -- cynicism,
so tender, so sweet.
Lit up by a spark
the counsel reticent
like finding a magic chalice
footsteps of a new life intrude
its swift pace precludes
the old disharmony. 
Unseen to sentient life
unknown into the known.
I wait for faith's flux of ebb and flows
not a murmur of the past,
besieged and turbulent.
Lost quietude
slips into night.

Infected

I am infected by your gaze,
your laugh,
your smile.
I am infected with a poison.
It's called love,
and there is no antidote.
I am infected, even though your cold,
hard,
unforgiving,
stare shatters my heart.
I am infected by your love of poetry,
the arts,
music.
I am infected by your voice,
smooth,
inviting,
warm.
But most of all,
I am infected by the way I want to love you,
but we all know that won't happen.

Selected Area Infected

Selected Area Infected

He had selected an area which was infected;
Contains cancer cells that should be corrected;
Searched around;
Source found;
Is something that does seem so complicated.
