Best Inquests Poems


Crystallized Tears
Crystallized tears
 
When time, marched by the flame of a candle
The fear, from the swords and peak of the temple
When the virgin liberty was in a dungeon
Tyranny was and is still for souls to be sunken
 
New belief,  a hope, lifts inquests and conflicts
Empires,...

BLUE


The rain startled the clouds and fell like 
a scare of possibilities. The day  toggled
from then to now like a withering widow

A flustered squirrel  sat and squirmed
and still  nibbled at a dry stump
like eliciting poetry off ancient prose

Some never knew the intent...

Lens of Life
Can blackwater lilies 
sing forth sonnets 
of daylight and 
unsung those 
cacophonous notes 
of omen, which 
rhymed with 
sombre elixir 
of spruce rivulets and 
veiled your crimson 
touch of life, 
in eons of unforgivable 
death? 

Those haunting floods 
of heinous moth-ringed 
August still carve my...

Premium Member The Curse of Black Beard
Down deep beneath fathoms icy keep, where deadmen’s
Scream in utter silences aquatic hell, amongst the devils
Graveyard of wreckage's carnage, there exists a ghostly harbor
Of phantom ships!
Anchored are the souls of the undead, and vessels craft for which
These commended rode upon, tethered by chains forged in...

Rubik Cube
Yours is a horrendous bother
I decode one side, you obfuscate another!
I twist and turn, twist and turn again
Fingers engrossed around your parts, another twist
extirpates the other side! My enthusiasm refuses to wane.
I warp your shifting visage, weave the obliterated wrist,
Only succeeding to dislodge several faces,
I...

In the Shade of the Setting Son
Not at once, but gradually at my feet
random leaves, brown and brittle
carpenters diligently march in 
leaving my bark somewhat non-committal

Furtively, up grow the undesirables
the weedy weeds and the pesty pests
erstwhile friends in the summer sun
the heavenly snag inviting inquests

Wounded tree under forest affliction 
how to...

Premium Member Ill Fated - Controversial
Ill fated





Life was so smooth 
until one condemned evening
They bundled her up in a van
and then took to a deserted place,

She could sense her misfortune
to their sarcastic smiles,
A sense of hatred and agony
watered clear in her helpless eyes,

Treated as a vegetable
for no fault of hers,
Stripped...

Sweet Escape
Bobbing my head.
Tapping my foot.
Swaying my head.
Mouthing out lyrics.
Humming melodies.
Seeming to enjoy top 40 pop hits.

Something rips out the headphone,
previously lodged into my ear. 
Ow.
I look up,
Brad standing above me.
Headphone in his hand.
Villainous grin across his face.
A weird look glides my face.
His headphone gets shoved...

Sword Of Justice


    Sword of justice indict a bogus Gilgamesh

     An apathetic ghoul condemned embodying arrogance above kindness


     Dark and ominous intent bound to abolish

     Inherent freedom of expression beside...

November
In November limbs are still
Thin against the dying light
From sylvan vale to hill
Poised in forms for us, contrite

Pergola bare with thorn 
The knuckles of the hemlock worn
Expansive loomed leaf arbor's torn
Preparing for winters blight
in hibernation

To discover the divination
of dendrology, their eschatology and escape
Mystic trees as...

Premium Member You Are God and We Are Not
How did you see ahead God
When we don’t have a clue?
You make plans, arrangements ahead of time
You make everything falls together like pieces of puzzle
Falling in their places
A masterpiece 
With a personal touch from the Master’s hands
Sometimes we don’t know what You are doing
And we...

Kindness and Lament
Kindness and Lament

Money never to be found or spare
Funny how people just sit there and stare
Honey now you know this really isn’t fair 
Sunny for those who genuinely care 
Affection for those who are broken and bruised
Reflection for those who are feeling so bemused 
Redemption...

Oceans and Winds
Oceans and Winds

I have an obsequious unnatural inclination
To sustain my external compulsions 
And convert them to a pre-text of a sub-text
Of instantaneous conclusions
Bi-Partisan confusions, melted humans and rheuminations
We seem to be caught up in the slipstream
And lost in the vibrations 
Of stations and crossings,
Meanderings, stoppings
We...

Of Human Voyage
Those old poets and painters
In books and carved inscriptions 
on the streets, in old pages 
of time and its history 
from old struggles and inquests
and there is me and my journey
of human voyage and freedom
borne out from expression 
and desert, of many years 
of my...
