Best Meridian Poems


Our Meridian

"Our Meridian"



We are all 
barefoot 

ultra green
We are

strange 
familiars

We are
constant

circumferencing

Each second
Each minute

Each hour
Every day

Each Year
Our Meridian

We are all 
ignorant,

We are all
important

subservient 
docile

and sentient
in our truth

We 
are absent

Yet
primed

the internal 
eternity of Us

whispering 
in our minds

"IT"
comes soon,

Our Time
Our Centre

the meeting place
the point,

Our Meridian.

“I DON'T CARE!" Harry yelled at them, 
snatching up a lunascope and 
throwing it into the fireplace. 
"I'VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH,
I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, 
I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!"
"You do care," said Dumbledore. 
He had not flinched or made a single move
to stop Harry demolishing his office. 
His expression was calm, almost detached.
"You care so much you feel 
as though you will bleed to death 
with the pain of it.”
J.K. Rowling, Order of the Phoenix





“When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”
William Shakespeare

Meridian

Steady
This
Ladder
Like you
Steadied
Your Pace.

Hold it tightly 
In your
Troubled 
Manner.

Slow it down.
But keep it moving.
Moving
Towards
The Walls.

Up to the
Place
Where 
Discrete 
Men Shame

When you 
Called 
My name
Without a
Sound.

Where a blank
Expression
Carries 
Craving
Like a parasite
Strapped 
To the back of a
Poison.

Where you know you'll ascend.

When your
Steps
Break from
The 
Concrete
In a double
Stepping 
Speed,
Much like the
Tonic of a
Servicing Seed.

Don't intoxicate me.

Slip your hands
Up
The 
Entertainers
Exotic Bars
And 
Come
Rising and Climbing 
Up
To 
The 
 Hole in the wall.

Ante Meridian

ANTE MERIDIAN

I didn’t have my coffee 
I didn’t smoke my cigarette 
I don’t face him – I am too bitchy – 
so many words in the marriage
they come out like glazed ants
irrational “good morning”

I understand my womanhood 
in an amazonian way
an I placate my own voice
in the exertion of waking up

he dances a kiss on my cheek
to peel off the numbness
and dulcifies the leap 
from dream to reality


Aurora's Meridian.

Let sleep be given,
To the evensong,
As perhaps,
A fallen opulence feather,
Fallen from wings tips flight.

Unconscious in the sojourn,
Of none the more a mind's cease,
Memory will not forsake the need,
To purify the thought of search,
As eyed lids rested plight.

Find me in the breakage,
Of light's asunder,
And Cimmerians's leer,
The tapestry of morning,
To find the gift of dawn,
In the unspoken reflected

Project Meridian

Our world wasn't made to last. 
I'd know. 
I was meant to save it, yet here I stand, surrounded by dust.
It bounces upon their corpses, wafting up and around the empty laboratory.

It's the only thing moving now.

It wasn't always like this. 
They were happy once, weren't they?
Before they made me, I mean. 
I would wonder if they were ever happy
if I cared enough to give them any more thought than I already have.

A pamphlet rests against a desk. 
I pick it up
knowing it'll never be touched again.

'Project Meridian- a robot to propel us away.'

A drill bashes through my metal skull
matching the bits of it on my head.

'Exploration beyond your wildest dreams.'

They'd evolved down here
within fire and flame
magma and rock
beneath the crust of the planet. 
I was their ticket out.
Not that they'd ever asked me about it.

'Break free of your chains and see what's above you!'

I had done exactly that. 
A great escapade into the world. 
And my return here
to the place where it all began.

'With our latest technology, we will finally see the future.'

All I could see was the blood-soaked present.

Meridian

Near the warm candle light, we engage an embrace of sight…   
A concentrated gaze focused on empty space…   
When your mind goes still a mist becomes my face…   
Whirling up from another dimension, 
cosmic soul group communicates absent from apprehension…  
Your heart is free filled with great power, 
spread those angelic wings with a flap to dismantle the false truth tower…   
We sent you here to spread a long forgotten message…   
Light the mighty earth avatars flame using unconditional love vibration passage…   
Knights Knowing Kindred Kingdoms…   
Awakens the masses…


Blind Meridian

Fire burns hottest
that burns below
Centuries rage
heartache’s grow
The coldest cold
blows just above
A gripping blizzard
—wrath ungloved
