Best Looked Poems

Have you looked up at the sky today and watched the birds that flew pass?                              ...

Dear Mom,
I looked for you today.
I found you in the smell of coffee,
as I passed our favorite café. 

I felt you in the cool breeze,
that traveled fiercely up my spine.
I put my face toward the sky
and found you in the warm sunshine.

I looked for you...

YOU LOOKED TOO DEEP
You looked too deep where no one's seen before
into the very deepest part of me
where hides my very breathing soul and more
I'd not allowed the world to even see.

You made your way right through my heart and mind
and opened doors I thought...

I Looked To Heaven That Christmas Night

What shall I do, cast far away my pen
Should wizen Cheshire cat stop its grin
Mighty Amazon stop its massive flow
I paint my Christmas scene devoid of snow
Nay, surrender poets must never do
Snap out of it, sling a new verse...

THE WAY HE LOOKED AT ME

The way he looked at me?
No particular expression
Strange dude
Strange only because of surroundings
We’d spoken before
A few words
Can’t recall what about

But now    just now
The way he looked at me?
At me    but right through me
One of...

I looked off
Into great distance…
Little things
No longer distinguishable-
Those subtle differences
I could never name
Anyway,
Could never paint,
Stubbornly refusing
The prime of my colors,
Shapes and strokes
Of my pithy brush-
My mind a sieve
Of contours
And dripping questions
Muddied
In rivers of endless
Flowing debate…

It is here
At great distance,
Where topics come together
In a somewhat-blur,
Clearer for...

Her eye’s looked out with smiles of love 
That left my heart amazed.
In wooded graveyard high above
With Yew Trees we appraised.

We traced our roots that clawed the ground
In mind we felt the clay.
Of hearts and souls rose too profound
And toxins came our way.

In love the...

This site is looked after by the cops 
poets are drunk dopers
losers and boozers that never win
the cops are coming after the poets 
they are checking names and records 
and entering accusing words 
while sitting and eating doughnuts
the cops are locking up the poets 
drunkards...

Limerick : Once a Nanny looked for a Manny/Mannie

Once a Nanny looked for a Manny
And found the father of her Kiddie
Poor Cuckold gave assent
With his Girlie’s consent
Now all five live in One Bliss House free.

Arise dead ones; the grave has been loosened,
It has been crumbled up, like a man crumbles up a dream.
I Looked into myself, to the emptiness that is me
A dream lies before me
My foot has crushed it and in anger I have buried it
I have closed...

love
i 
have
looked in
every corner
through 
every tide
both 
far and wide 
but
where 
to look
for 
love again
oh love 
i
have
looked for 
thee 
inside...

To: Mandy Jo

She called me her friend. She was one of the few.
She saw in me things that no one else knew.

I was backward and shy, a chess club bore.
I had tape on my glasses. Need I say more?

She was one of the “popular” kids...

unexpectedly
volcanoes spewed hot lava…
     the end had begun

undersea earthquakes
produced many tsunamis…
     life on land succumbed

then a meteor
destroyed the last plot of land…
    Earth engulfed by sea

spirits were rising
all kind souls entered heaven…

I still remember the day -
first time she looked into me.
She was quite a beguiling beauty
enriched with miracles of nature.
Within a single look, a connection 
was developed between us
as I was quite a charmer myself.
I enjoyed her company very much
as she frolicked in front of...
