Best Inflicts Poems


Premium Member Phantasmagoria
Assaulting me!  The darkness comes to be
    in devil’s guise. Phantom haunts my mind;
  in sleep paralysis I cannot flee -
insanity bleeding through ruined rind.

I’m humbled now and at your merciless
  whims and words afflicting by your whipping

Darkest Destiny
Out of hell’s breath the Devil’s Coachman comes and turns
around the tale to woe twists as the world creeps backwards
underneath the clay slithering sacrificial savagery begins
 
Ghastly ghostly spectres watch on with soulless glee
under laid this icy moon the toxic evil venom spews
within hideous precision...

Premium Member The Great Conundrum

There is something about matter
that keeps me spellbound,
enamored to its most exquisite blooms,
oceans, forests and mountain streams.
It holds who I am, gives me shape
and form, a home, a place in which
this awareness within me 
can live out a life and from which
I have grown.

I am...

Premium Member The Human Race Called Mankind
The third millennium of what?
Man is lame
clearly lost the will to walk,
he’s blind
no longer able to reason.
His fingers cast hope
upon the keyboard,
his mind creates
trends upon the screen,
he inflicts pain, a global sadomasochist
he sees others in his historical
image!
He plants his seed
most upon stony ground,
he offers peace

Premium Member Ukraine Christmas
Spare a thought this Christmas for those suffering in Ukraine
While you are enjoying the festive season Russia inflicts more pain
Huddled around makeshift fires with no where to escape the chill
The evil Russians fire missiles and drones that are designed to kill. 

Russia hopes by taking...

Band-Aids For the Heart
the blood of love leaks out
through this punctured 
saddened wound
bleeding hurt unspoken
cries for help unheard,
no surgeon could ever help
the shocking pain of but a word

how one so casually inflicts
such wounds upon those 
they have once told
of their undying eternal love
held tight those two bodies
as she...

Premium Member Metaphorical Daggers
Paroxysm of pain inflicts this pen,
tears cry poetic allusion.
When petal hearts are misunderstood,
life is full of confusion.

Distasteful thoughts set camp in my mind,
an unwelcome intrusion.
Virgin pages innocent in white,
yearn to wear this mind's effusion.

Too many deep unanswered questions,
lead to a false conclusion.
When judgement lacks honest...

Premium Member Chimera World
Misleading, minacious maze now thwarted,
eschews stealth as sandal-clad steps resound.
Determined and dour, destiny draws near;
completing this quest: forever renowned.

Stygian sky grants a much-welcomed boon:
conformable clouds cast curtain aside.
A radiant pearl suspended aloft,
reveals route to where foul fiend does reside.

Mouthing prayers to a personal angel;
supplication: salient...

Every Night
Every night I search for  your face

through the mist on my window

I search for your arms

in the perfume of flowers

I gaze at oceans of stars

and make the same sempiternal wish

Every night I bathe in crystals of honey

'neath an effervescent moon

which carries your evanescent smile

upon...

Suffer the Little Children
Suffer the little children that hide their pain
For these innocent victims, who’s to blame?

Although many a tragedy happen at home
Society, itself, inflicts harsh pains of its own

Danger and violence are a part of everyday
And, the children know it shouldn’t be that way

The remain fearful in...

The Sun Rises, I Lay Me Down
It's seven A.M., the sun is up, the fields are covered in snow.
I'm 57 years old, and sick, and I ought to know...'
What ravages my body so??
Inflicts me witn such pain?
I have pain meds I don't wish to use,
They can lead to harder stuff,
As far...

Temptation
When I see those eyes,
They’re filled with lifeless lies.
It’s no wonder his skin is like ice.

He tells me, “Come closer,”
His promise of wealth wins me over,
But then I see the black blood running through his veins.
He says, “Five years, then it’s time for more games.”

It’s...

Premium Member march 17 hockey holy trinity
They're pagans on ice with wood sticks
And maximum pain each inflicts
But Saint Patrick knows
God prefers trios
Like three-leaf shamrocks and hat tricks...

Shape of Crucifixion
a balance 
of what is right
the good inside man
blessing myself 
in the name 
of Our Father
 
Begging mans forgiveness 
of the Son 
who arose 
from the dead 
his Holy Spirit 
I bow my head 
in mans 
horrible shame 

Tears from 
Heaven's Son 
crowned...
