Best Insights Poems
Morn InsightsSomehow, the glint of morn's prayer
awakens an unexplained urge
to find new journeys
in the remaining meditation
of time...I gush as daybreak yields
freshened rain,
that my old city of dreams,
of hope begins to inhale
all that is indelibly alive-- precious.

The Theological Insights of Archie BunkerLast Saturday night I dropped by for a few beers at Kelsey's Bar.
Archie Bunker was there, drinkin' beer and chompin' on a nickel seegar,
Expoundin' on religion and his pinko, atheist son-in-law, Meathead!
If you dared to contradict him, he'd tell you right off to drop dead!

[Note: Throughout his oeuvre, there can be found aphorisms which broadly hint at Thiru-Valluvar's intolerance of the less-endowed individual, and none characterises this trait as PEETHAIMAI or "Folly". Likewise his somewhat...

Grateful InsightsThe sole praise for being blessed is priceless.
Inhale the soft glow of the soul welly.
It's false to force others to your embrace.
He just pulls the faint air from blessed body.
Desire to get rid of gloom and sadness.
What a gloss golden chance to be...

The mind can hew a path to pure delight.

That cause the seemingly endless strife.
Its but your vision, your perception...
Its just your choice of decision.

Drunk InsightsYou can love a person, you can love animals, you can love nature
So what is love?
love is the recognition of the creator in the creation
It is the kind person that gives you hope when all seems lost
It is the loyal dog that protects your family

By Michelle Morris

You can examine the past
With regret or longing
But you can never change
The events as they occurred
All that you can hope for
Is that you gain wisdom and experience
Knowledge and insights
For your spiritual path and growth
You can plan your future
With care...

Childhood InsightsThe insignificant play of children often prove to be their livelihood,
As they get older, they wander and stray,
Yet it all comes back to their youthful days,
The task that brought them the most joy,
becomes the path that will eventually rejuvenate
their adult lives,
sending the precognitive knowledge of...

InsightsIt was less savory.
The tibia breaks and you
enter into unbuttoned dress.

The deviance was abusive.
I cannot accept the celebration
of skin, unwrapping small Buddhas.

When the fear recedes, I will

The Empirical Veneers of Decency and AcceptanceThe Empirical Veneers of Decency and Acceptance
It’s funny how perceived intelligence
Is not necessarily a measure of true smarts
How the genius, the barrister and the eloquent
Can miss the point from the very start
It’s quite bemusing to observe her lack of self-awareness
And confusing...

Beer Bloatbeer bloat
morning after
football Sunday
am I, or the bar
the consumer
I don't know
I had a good time
shot some pool
cracked some jokes
flirted with girls
not half my age
so vain
so pointless
so fun
journey coming
soon, so
shutting it down
redirecting energy
focus
vision
to what I want more
than football Sunday
a different land
a different people
I hope at...

Little ThingsI can see the stars shining
beyond the pain of their flames
I can see the moon reflecting
the whole love over its waning
I can see the river flowing
beneath its obstacles
I can see the mountains growing
from the little grains unnoticed
I can see the waves rippling...
