Best Live(A) Poems

Does this darkness have a name? 
  
Does this hatred and cruelty have no mercy? 
Why do we make fun of those who look ugly..... What is happening to us judging others by their clothes and looks.... Who are we to judge????? 
You think...

To live a day safely in a city
where citizens must be echoes
and human rights are a fairy tale
but you want your mouth not pinched
your ears not pulled by anyone
or coconut not to hit your head;
a lemur you should be,
the big eyes not to miss coming...

 Love can
be a Blessing,
or it can be a Curse.
Either way I would much rather live
with Love. ...

I live a life, in perpetuity, of almost always being done.  ~TH~...

I am poor still live a human life...
 Live in shack, wear a rag,
 Eat from trash, beg in streets,
 Eat not when I want, but when I find, 
 Shrunken belly, faded face, 
 Symbol of hunger and misery life,
 I am poor still...

In rain and sun, entrapped by death, we cuss,
Through pain we run for love in times of hope—
The world we dance within makes dust of us,
With all the light, when silver clouds elope.
I've trained for this a million lives before,
And every cast I've worn was...

when the music slows down it's final call

women and men pushing their way through the halls

locked in stalls rolling spliffs for the long haul

stuffing beer bottles under their wife beaters

scuffing up their new white adidas sneakers

cars lining up along the street

music bumping bass lines thumping...

I live in a limbo, wired trance every day,
Hands up in the air at a chair.
Expected to sit, silently screaming inert, 
Eyes closed to professional flare.

My life is in limbo, in this office of joy, 
An odd circus of administration.
With keys tapping a beautiful tap...

crawling out of my shell 
         i tremble to keep my balance
         charging towards my freedom

Looking here and there, striving for rapture...
 Went to friends, 
 they said get rich, enjoy luxury, 
 Pleasure is the means of joy...
 Not really!!
 So knocked the doors of sages and saints,
 Same old preaches from sacred books,
 Nothing new; seek refuge of...

Enjoy every day
Cherish every breath you take
Listen to what your heart has to say
Learn from every mistake

Fold up the umbrella … feel the cool rain
Tear down that wall that took a lifetime to build
Let go of all of your pain
Warm up that heart that has...

You live a lie, you die a lie. 
 When the truth falls down
It lands on broken promises
And shattered dreams.

Why do some people lie habitually?
Do they enjoy their phony lives?
Do they enjoy hurting others?
Do they enjoy hurting their loved ones?

When we walk in truth we...

Kill With Truth Or Live a Lie

Innocence precedes with their mouth,
Bold-step, no Fred Astaire,
Unashamed, not from the deep south,
Turn a smile amid glare.

Embellished claims, "Friends to the bitter end,"
Advent sketched destiny...a reflection,
Candid critiques retards the heart--transcend.

'Twas best to conspire words...

What is it that you want
What am i supposed to do
The sounds of pain and sadness
When i speak to you
The grinding of the bones
and the tearing of the flesh
The empty room of a soul
thrown out with the rest
Looking through eyes of darkness
Its a shame they're...

Bored in my mind 
Thoughts have run dry 
Oh! Why am I not surprise 
Here you are, wondering why 
Who look on life with eyes 
We thrust the truth aside 
The pleasure And delight 
Are hard to describe 
Glorious departed likewise 
After bitter strife 
That...
