Best Infrequent Poems


A Being In the Age of Consumerism
I'm constantly searching for myself –
That part which is essential, inherent.
I sense its presence, it's somewhere within
The being which echoes with infrequent shouts
Of a neglected foreigner 
Who happens to live in my dwelling.
But it's a language I can't comprehend;
Only some fragments, and on rare occasions
When...

I'm ashamed to say I was a grumpy pessimist, as some events soured me,
Just as some cherries stay sour, although lingering long on the cherry tree.

Although grumpy, I was rather happy, and I'd worked hard for what I got,
Like the times you meet, silver moon...

Tree Stories
Tree Stories

She asked me about the trees

and I laughed, remembering the times I saw her eyes sparkle through the leaves on every single occasion of when I told her what I humbly named "tree stories" 
	
She remembered every single story I told

And even after I...

Premium Member Goldie
Goldie, my peculiar but beloved cat,
has certain affectations --
she prefers, most times, her own society
and shuns her housemates.
But, sometimes, she cuddles
or will join the others
to laze around -- in the living room,
the dining room, a hallway, or
in the kitchen.
An inside cat who, early on,
suffered the...

astuteness to win challenges 
ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives

Hello Rose,

I know that you have questions and have missed me as much as I am missing you. I do not like excuses, but there really is a good reason for my infrequent visits. Of course there are others, like Tulip and...

Life Is What Happens
[ edit poem ]
Life Is What Happens

What a long, strange life it’s been.
Childhood and adolescence were close to normal,
I never felt quite right,
Never fit my image of a normal kid.
Dealing with internal demons for so many years.

Adolescence was hell,
The frigging dybbuks took control
Internally screaming, “your...

The Forest Calls
THE FOREST CALLS 

The pink clouds surround the setting sun
The black earth won't give up her secrets 
When all things are said and done
She holds her memory the most infrequent 
Paltry mists of past liaisons 
Stormy strife from deep within 
Remembrance of aged relations
Decadent mirth...

She had many good days and bad ones. There were sad moments and happy ones.  There was a period in which she was a daily soft drink consumer.
But I must say that there was nothing soft about the drink she craved.
She was captivated by...

America! With Respect To W.W. & A. G.
This struggling accomplished path winds,
Spiral like stairs leading us to the point;
Average wingedhipsters today more like
Displaced thugs. With no sense.
At every corner, we're speaking rigorous
Reminders.

That we all eventually yawn.your wombs

America, I'm wore out, worrying about
This junk.
America, your womb's been cast out
America, our children are all...

Blue
blue is the colour that we see
staring at space into infinity

a blue sky appearing up above
denotes fine weather that we love

a blue ribbon for a performance
implies a standard of excellence

a blue jeans is a common garment
that is found on every continent

a bluebird is a symbol...

IS IT THE CASE



Is it the case that
Lands are small, to contain all of us, 
Or that
Our hearts are not big enough to love?

Is it the case that
Seas and oceans are narrow for our ships to pass,
Or that
Our minds are not wide open?
 
Is it...
