Best Label Poems

I could wrap you
In secret
And cling
Like double-sided
Just to keep
Your gift
From prying eyes

But I have
No label
A name, perhaps
But no concept
No complete picture
For the pieces
Of you

Labels
Are for things.
Boundaries.
Pigeon holes.
For just a
Moment
In the journey

We remove them
On arrival
Or when they are
Dog-eared 
Or when they are wrong
Or at least
We should

I am from country living and bareback riding
But you wouldn't know that 'cause i keep hiding
I look like I'm gothic but i really don't bite
Trust me I'm not that big of a fright

I am from backyard football and gymnastics
I'm sorry, I'm not really a romantic
Playing...

“God alone is, the all there is ~
Feel within, His vibrant bliss fizz”

_____________

Inbuilt prejudice,
as beliefs that hiss,
negates divine light
and bliss beats delight.

Mind’s designed to size,
compartmentalise,
whilst God and we’re one,
glowing like the sun.

Innate aliveness
is one with oneness,
until scarred by mind,
gripped in ego’s bind.

Jesus and Buddha,
Shiva and...

A Food Label Lament

			  	Every day there's folk who expound
				on what we should eat, and I've found
				they all promote a point of view
				of what they think is good for you.

I have a label which is called BPD
It basically reads “don’t help me.”

Everyone will say and talk
“they are not ill, it is all in their heads.”
“they are taking up all our hospital beds.”

“they just want attention and nothing more.”
“There is nothing wrong with them, that...

The blind leading the blind, what is seen is how its heard
the thoughts that make the story are lost behind the words
do you see it as you view it, or take a deeper look 
do you read into the narrative or judge the cover of...

I wish people wouldn’t label people with disabilities
As being different and would get to know them
Now I’ll admit that I’ve got a disability
And also did some volunteer work at a Middle School
But the students there tend to look past my disability
And most seemed to want...

Labelled a conspiracy nut because I don't believe mainstream media.
Labelled a terrorist because I think my government lies.
Labelled an Anon because I agree with most their points.
Labelled an anarchist because I think democracy has failed.
Labelled a racist because my skin is white.
Labelled a Bible basher...

cover me with make up
  cover me with truth
cover me with lies
  cover me with youth


cover me beauty
  cover me with sin
cover me with smiles
  cover me gin


you can cover me with whatever you like.
  but you will never
 cover

I wear a warning label 
around my neck, 
it flashes an amber light,
do not disturb or you'll have a fight.

This is worn to discourage interruption 
of my deep thoughts as I compose 
to write the poem of the hour,
capturing words before they turn sour.

The television...

If we all had to wear a label that warned
what would YOURS say with which you were adorned
Would you hide it away?
Cut off where it lay?
Or be relieved everyone got informed?...

Tired of everyone playing 
all there silly games
Callin me and labeling me
all these names
 
They call me a thug
they call me a player
When all in all 
they themselves don't have a prayer
 
They are quick to judge
when they don't know me
What have I ever done...
