Best Metrically Poems

The Double Rhyme Sonnet is a sonnet that rhymes not only the end of the lines but also the front part (metrically)! Of course, I would be looking for imagery, good grammar, meter, etc.; however, the most important criterion is that it be written precisely...

“we woke up early one morn, ego shorn
it felt as though we were in form reborn
nodes within stirred, boundaries blurred
our head and heart, with love concurred”
(line of inquiry)

Tears fell upon a senseless blank page,
as self-pride suppressed dark vents of rage.
We become silent when words don't engage,
until...

The depth of my intensity is unfathomed and unknown
I mutter a million tongues in a million different tones
Unleashing my mind, I spew prolific poetry
Draw a wedge in your subconscious, like I’m parting the Red Sea.
I can speak into your mirror and distort your reflection
Rebuff the...

EVERY OUNCE A MAN

Well, never climbed a mountain
but you can count on me to catch you
when you fall, after all, drank from the fountain,
so, thanks to you I am
every ounce a man.

Made love at midnight, fell in love by two,
in the middle of that sickness
thought...

My Friend Bucky Fuller
came down to me today.
He said,
"Lao-tse's Time
grows not-not binomial
radiates fore
and gravitates aft
Space and Time
poetry as rhyme
Convex and Concave!"

My Friend Rumi Gloomy
said to me today,
"When you are perpetually yearning
and searching for Healthy Holy Spirit,
you will, in...

We all feel like
dying to get out of here
at least sometimes;
a meeting
a relationship
a job
a car or bus or airplane
a house or apartment
a nation or state
a Party or clan
a faith community or PTA.

This is about the reverse view:
living to get out of there.

How are my competitive...

A ballade I will now begin
Why do this form I now try
Surely no contest will I win
I can see already I will cry
Rarely am I a sensitive guy
Oh what will I possibly gain
Yet again asking myself why
From this form I’ll REFRAIN

Haha I used a humorous...

The Professor's campaign
although stealthily benign
still co-arose fair hecklers.

How can you reassure me
that our vulnerable children
will not hate me
and you
for stealing from all Earth's tribal future
any possibility of healthy presence?

While Yangyinstein stands
with stunning wonder
about all win/win possibilities 
singing sufficient reassurance

What professors of integrity
and integrally therapeutic systems

Words Inspire - 
They create imagery
Words flow on the paper
Is there a dactyl?
Coming together into a chorus
Freedom of ideas grow 
Time after time
Free thoughts  flow
A poetic rhyme
Seeking to enlighten words
Can then thou create
Inspired by love of verse 
Visually permanent
Each word to find
To diversify language...

Yang and Yin evolved a hell
and Yin bilaterally tumbled after, and fore,
then Yang became the big kahuna,
and YinYin disappeared in heaven.

Imagine this 4-dimensional YangEarth
revolution-refined by time through BiLateral Yin.

and then gradually accumulating discontinuous memories

Synchronised zephyrs are holidaying in giant zones. It is interesting to note that this experience is not an easy excursion. For such weight is waving and waving is not a noted duty for any passing shoal of cuttlefish appearing on a highway. To watch a...

Rats! Mine Poetic Submissions Once Again Deemed Floccinaucinihilipilification

Countless declined submissions of mine,
