Best Maggots Poems
Overlooked Beauty My Pretty MaggotsOVERLOOKED BEAUTY MY PRETTY MAGGOTS
Beautiful as the tan, brown, red, black, white centipede be;
Beautiful worm-like the fly egg geometrically pretty to me;
Moist shiny, slimy don't know where your head is not an issue;
As you may clean infected wounds of dead and decaying tissue;
Attachment to the...

MaggotsMy demons have got a hold on me
I can feel their presence when I sleep
Pulling me down into this great abyss
Filling my joy with sorrows emptiness
Dragging my soul across the coals of hell
Where the arid land is filled with hopes decaying smell
Maggots eat upon...

Maggots On the HookCrank the handle and separate the shards.
We are an island clustered only by the venom of the fight
Left baited, hungry by the capsize for the sharks.
Wisdom rots the wilted bone and sparks
The night ablaze with inequalities unmeasured height.
Crank the handle and separate the shards.
Good men...

MaggotsMaggots, maggots
oh lord, maggots
they’re crawling through the
cracks between the wood
and they’re
swimming through the mountains
of trash
in the white plastic bag that
we left on the deck
and they’re
writhing on the floor
before my feet
like
hostages at the mercy of
their keeper.
Maggots, maggots
oh lord, maggots
I’m running through the
house taking deep breaths
and I’m
tearing...

Societies MaggotsFeeding hands of western promises
hold children by the throat.
See salvation die in porcelain tears,
shed from broken accords.
Innocence betrayed on altar of success.
A thousand Hail Mary’s won’t erase this sin.
Fingers resting on pulse of destruction,
a crack in the seal of Pandora’s box.
Old soldiers, cruising, trying to...

Human MaggotsHuman Maggots
If ejaculated semen
From millions of seafarers
Over hundred years
Think if this floating loneliness
Had met up and formed
An Island
And up from its depth sprung
The unborn like larvae
Whose only contact
With mothers were what
The seaman
Was dreaming of at the time
Not Atlantis re- emerging
But...

From millions of seafarers
Over a hundred years.
Think of this floating loneliness
had met up and formed
An Island.
And up from its depth
Sprung the unborn
Like larvae
Whose only contact
With mothers
Depended
On what the seaman
was dreaming at the time.
Not a new Atlantis emerging
But an...

MaggotsThe maggots
One morning in the village, millions of maggots
At the cemetery appeared protesting about hunger.
They merged into a big fat pink ball with tiny feet
chanted: we want more corpses, the supply side
has let us down
It had been hitherto a healthy village few people died
those who...

MaggotsWars are caused by politicians
Who then cower at the rear:
Wars are fought by soldiers from
Patriotism, duty, or plain fear
Of the consrequences if
They just refused to go.
If they all had the courage
To just stand and say no,
To be made examples of,
To be imprisoned or...
