Best Invalidate Poems

If I do not trust my wisdom
then I have earned nothing,learned nothing,loved nothing, become nothing,
I would be a random phantom,a struggle absent triumph to fathom,
just a creature chasing feelings, ignorant of meaning,
would be like disbelieving my birth
underestimating my worth
searching for mirth
in spoiled earth,

As a Mother...

Mahmoud Darwish English Translations of Arabic Poems



Palestine
by Mahmoud Darwish
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

This land gives us
all that makes life worthwhile:
April's blushing advances,
the aroma of bread warming at dawn,
a woman haranguing men,
the poetry of Aeschylus,
love's trembling beginnings,
a boulder covered with moss,
mothers who dance to the...

We’ve CANCELLED your job 
Immediately
but you have been renewed
to enter a field with a better aim
to CANCEL out your dated brain
to secure you with a daunting task
to invalidate your former mask
of a 9 to 5 mentality
and learn to speak with authority
This is your desk and...

I suppose you might have missed out on Paul Feyerabend's,
and especially Thomas Kuhn's Problem of Incommensurabiity.

Oh, not at all.
I have not looked at science or culture
or language
or even your attempts at communication
quite the same since I ran across their big dilemma.

Interestingly,
it shares some dynamics with...

Such Tenderness
by Michael R. Burch

for the mothers of Gaza

There was, in your touch, such tenderness—as
only the dove on her mildest day has,
when she shelters downed fledglings beneath a warm wing
and coos to them softly, unable to sing.

What songs long forgotten occur to you now—
a babe...

I live in a compartment
It’s called an apartment.
Morning after morning
I step into an orifice,
Call it my office.
Who breathes here?
Who can taste lunch?
Suspicion’s the only hunch
Numbers, the chasers here.

Sunset is a distant memory,
I yearn to feel breeze on my face.
But the irreverent hands of the mighty...

...Shakespeare and his pentameter, vital after four centuries,
Cervantes and his man Sancho,
Dumas and Montecristo,
the great tales of Boccaccio,
Dicken and his fine ghosts three.

Beethoven's sonic fury still staggers even jaded minds,
Tchaikovsky made eighteen-twelve
sound utterly epic as well,
Hayden’s string quartets still sell,
even Beatles have immortal rhymes.

Newton and...

Your Life Is Your Witness
Written: by Miracle Man
12/16/2021

I’ve heard it said,
“that we’re the only bible some will read”.
So it isn’t simply what we’re saying,
but also consists of our every deed.

For from our shadows, unknown eyes,
oft scrutinize our every move.
Analyzing our lives, sometimes seeking,
to invalidate, cancel,...

Just in case I just stop writing my poetry check my thoughts because some how some where I had forgotten my pain
My pride
My heart and soul
I’m alone.  
Loveless, I should be and feeling even less because my tears stopped.  The ademption of my...

emotional annulment 
can never nullify the 
fact that this relationship
existed 
the existence of this 
relationship can never be 
undo from the pages of
the book of life lived 
nothing said nothing done
can ever invalidate the 
past that we shared 
nothing can cause the 
memories of us...

No way to dodge fiat decreeing death sentence

The immortal cards of your metaphors haunted me endlessly. Thus, i haven't moved in years.  Sitted in a balcony whose walls were extensions of purgatory, here, i  fished for mars and mercury as i remembered your mosaic eyes with that licorice scent. Yeah,...

Outnumbered
Miracle Man
September 16, 2023

No matter which direction we turn our head,
Drugs and lawlessness continues it’s spread.

We vote to legalize things currently banned,
putting the illegal element in direct command.

Some try law changing when it doesn’t fit them,
and most disagreements are reason to condemn.

Social media has evolved...
