Best Mangled Poems

To know a man

to know a man
is to know what he expects
without him telling you

know what he hates
know what he loves
know what he wants

without a word said
his desires are understood
and prepared for him on a platter

but, once love, respect, and honor
has left the marriage, it...

A Mangled Heart...


Why do my tears not simply fall,

my heart mangled, cast along these empty streets
a wreck left to rust, bleakly lost in the blurry haze,
my dreams blowing in the dust of the passing days.



Why do my tears  not simply fall,
weeping within, fractured inside,

memories...

Mangled Minds
Mangled Minds entwined with Rhymes,
My brother’s repeat this nonsense,
Once brilliant men, now lost my kin,
Just ramble in confusion,
Many a man that I’ve met on life’s road,
Has endured the weight of trials untold,
And some survived to thrive and die,
But most just fell, into this hell,...

Romeo, my Romeo, I adore thee, whispers Juliet,
oh you cause my heart to race with each tiny beat,
many times I dreamt being a wife and all your own,
end this torment, sire your babies, take me home,
oh, Romeo, beloved Romeo, say you will have me.

No, Juliet,...

This fate is severely mangled
fierce storms define its exterior
And in this daze, 
they do not cease
Heartstrings tear its beliefs,
and fatality enjoys it

Shades withstand its 
diminishing effects
So without pace
its slowing trance atones
Passion draws its pangs
and futility reminds it...

I'm afraid
I'm broken
Time's delayed

Imprisoned in my mind
Its eating me alive
All hope is left behind

Tears flow like rivers carving casms
Down my face and straight into my heart
Holding my will to live at ransom.
My choices stolen, never returned.
Hopelessness, helplessness, lonliness
Wandering blind, Lessons never learned.
What would i say...

Datura(belladonna perhaps in another form)

Matures the galaxy in jealousy despising love

Releasing jasmines death twisting Aphrodite's heads upon loves rewinding failures

Creation in question

Call from my mouth your kindness

Respond silence

Squander obnoxious craft

Illness requires me

And again

I disappear your vapors...

How interesting can you be ?
Once whole and confident 
Focused Intent
A likely pre set present tense 
All my ducks in a row
Ready to cluck out in militant fashion
A prepubescent repetition
Shallow and still
Reflection and refraction


The reinvention of perfection is a fruitless pursuit

Decades of good intentions
Mirrored by...

I Am Whole

My limbs may be mangled and tore from its base but my heart reflects pure pride, you can see it in my face, there is no disgrace.  Though my body has been through the ringer of life, my heart will not contain...

The congregation of passportology
Is an overwhelming majority
Don’t know much of my geneology 
Even don’t belong to minority 
But anyone can attach me of course
To the less equal nation in Orwellian sense 
For that mental trick I must feel some remorse
Must believe in the depth of...
