Best Inventories Poems
Seventeen storiesFeeling romantic; in this seat of seventeen stories
This far up, I plainly see the wind beneath the bushes and trees
So tell me, Angel, in front of me, is this your view of our glories?
Did this experience give you peace enough to please?
Or was I boring...

Thinking ChangeFueled by alcoholic self-will run riot,
Thoughts full of blame and defiance,
Resentment, self-pity, lies and shame,
Relief demands psychic change.
Twelve steps suggested be taken,
Acute withdrawal and body shaking.
Admitting powerlessness is no disgrace
For transformation by God’s grace.
Change is painful and not easy,
Many meetings and even therapy.
Process of cleansing...

Underneath what they consider lunar
Don't care if your name is super
So much for your future
And all of the rumors
There is nowhere you can go to outmaneuver
When I turn into Krueger
Take you out before the sound of the rooster...

ToxicThe traffic of life's busy inventories
restrains this need for solace--
how the accounting of hours untamed
induces an onslaught to my self-care;
how much longer must I invest on time
which steals the leisure of hearts' meeting,
the thrill of flowers in bloom?--
if so, can toxic moments be...

Agile BoneAgile bone
Come over oh little in skin but giant in heart
As I make a Clarion call on that which tint the ear
Your great work is made manifest in all ages
As none can outturn that which is laid in your strength
The glory of the young lies...

Uphold Moulds and Strongholds of IntegrityHonour packets and pockets of promises
Without any iota of excuses
If progress should become the portion
Blessed in action and implementation.
Honour realms and reams of reputation
With vigour and rigour
Applied to forestall a misrepresentation
Sneaking into any endeavor to reap favour.
Honour spoken and written words
Uttered and muttered in good...

I Saw a ManI saw a man standing by the road
He was bedraggled and beaten down,
I passed him by, afraid to share my empty seat
And thought how sad we have come to this
In our self-satisfied want for nothing,
Afraid, because we hear horror stories
About those who have helped strangers,
Denying...

Pawn Shop Gas StationIn the Spanish language, it means “The Meadows”.
To this desert oasis, many a gambler goes.
There are hotels with restaurants and fabulous shows.
However, the biggest attraction is the casinos.
They drive from as far as Los Angeles and San Diego.
Plenty of cash is dumped in each casino.
With...

To All the Soup WritersI am in awe of all the talent on this site
It should be shined on with lights
The positive feedback is a delight
Some of you have taken poetry to great heights
All the words everyone places
The sheer wonder of its embraces
I see emotions, Devotions, and promotions...

Human InventoryAre our inventories the same? Do I still fight in wars that I wasn’t made to partake in? Have my boundaries been set with regard that I am not the savior; no humans can be or are. I just learned that all the past times...

Slowly dyingSlowly dying
Despite our existence
What else is possible
How much life span does humanity has in accordance to our attribute
To Mother Nature
We are distracted by entertainment
Blinded by social media
Instead of moral we bleed impurity
High Technology era equals robotic humans
How can...
