Best Justify Poems

I was once asked if I wanted to live?
Did I have anything left to give?
Would I be able to justify this to my kin?
Could I be forgiven for my mortal sin?
Would my children understand?
Will the note I leave have clearly explained my plan?
How would I...

Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand
Surely the most pious, learned Christian in all the land

Came out today with a most scholarly shocker
For which I find it hard to do aught but mock her

She told several fawning reporters** that restricting abortion
Is against the Christian faith, at least its...

When rapture outcomes
spiritually hoped for,
Paradise faithed in,
loved,
justify unnaturally violent missionary means...

When only scientific and deductively logical
reductive educational goals
justify:
Anti-spiritual wide and shallow unlearning means
Monocultures must TeacherWin before we StudentLose
Mono-supreme theistic Lose/Lose terror and neglect
AND yet quiet WinWin hope
for integrative Wonder and cooperative Awe,

When cultural orthodoxy rewards
Monotonous...

Tell it to me quickly,
now tell it to me fast,
I'm running out of time,
and these moments never last.
I'm not hallucinating,
I'm not turning this page, 
until I find somebody
to justify my rage.

I'm tired of your reasons,
I can't resist the urge,
I long for self-destruction,
my lungs to smoke...

Justify


Look at all you happy people in your stupid hats!
I hate all you happy people, who think it is fun to dance.
I can’t sing, so I don’t do karaoke,
What you think of that?
I just do not give a damn.
I think I dislike everybody, but I...

All outcomes are driven by desire,
Fueled by the intentions to succeed. 

Not every result is created equal,
Due to the justice of the means.

Good versus evil battles for cause,
Deciding the value of success. 

Vileness leads to an easier end,
Throwing out worthy principles.

Winning with virtue is harder,
Keeping...

Billions in taxes
Dished out on deep space research
For mankind’s progress
While millions know starvation
Who is defining progress?

I never felt the need for a poem
When you were with me
Every moment was a story
Full of joy and laughter!
You asked me to write a poem for you
about you...
Musing hard and quit later
Nothing to write about you
You were a poem for me
A poem about a...

It’s not easy being here anymore 
We know love’s the answer and fates the cure
We’ve both been through more
Than our hearts should endure
Our minds both fight the same endless war

We’re both finding ways to justify the pain
And any day now we’ll put an end to...

It could all be chance

It could all be fate

It could all be an elaborate game

We the pawns and fools of some God's make?

Life is strange to quantify

Life can change - the blink of an eye!

But what's the reason why?

We live and we die

Justify or clarify?

What...

When love gets buried in the sand
Looking around to see where this love will land
When your love has become so demanding
Everywhere it takes you you're left standing
Not able to signify how this love all got by
Why our love won't fly

Unable to certify the love you...

Ever came across a situation when your heart and your mind are in a state of conflict?
Your heart speaks one thing but your mind is in stark contrast!
Well! 
Yes I have.
And not just once but rather frequently.

To lie is unethical and wrong.
But if your lying...

Don’t be afraid to say sorry
Don’t be scared to cry loud the tears of apology
No boat can sail the ocean of offence except sorry
No ticket is valid to access the broken heart either
Sorry is the master key to open all the doors
Even the pillar of...

As life passes on by
The more we try to justify
All the people we greet on the fly
When we meet our minds
Sort out what we want to keep
How we know is when we start to glow

When the right things 
Have us going whoa
When everything starts to...

I wanted you to know
That you did not steal the show
Unable to harness the harmony 
You did not screw this up for me
In fact, it's such a huge favor
Not wasting the fruits of my labor
Knowing you were out to deceive thee
I don't know why you...
