Best Microorganisms Poems

I wonder,
If ever the fruit thanks the tree
For helping it grow and  becoming
ripe.

I wonder.
If the tree ever thanks its roots 
For keeping it standing and for the nourishment
They provide.


I wonder,
If ever the roots thank the ground
For supplying a firm base to plant themselves
In search...

Not to belittle the real Church of God 
Not to belittle the real benefits of communion 
Not to belittle kneeling and praying for a miracle 
Not to belittle the laying of hands 
Not to belittle a good bear hug 
Not to belittle the hope of...

In a dream I saw myself in a bright room, sitting and writing down a poem
The experience was temporary; I soon returned to a normal frame of mind
I felt another presence besides myself, suddenly I was awoken by a loud hum
As I search in my...

Wretched emasculated celibate anchorite

(any relationship between the following poem and living persons -
namely the writer of these words ranks as purely coincidental and fictitious).

nevertheless he suffers existential blight
covered head to toe
in black and blue bruises

Faulkner's comment, I imagine him
tossing it off like Yogi Berra between games
of a doubleheader. The hero, the expert, the virtuoso
has no real control, is going to feel
unmitigated, unsparing forces, a mighty sun
swallowed by a black hole, coughed up into a big sky.
The past isn't dead....

Ninety-three million miles
From sun to Earth’s Goldilocks Zone
Tiny Mercury and mysterious Venus
Torrid, too close to the sun
Carbon—based life prohibited
An Icarus Zone perhaps

But what of Earth’s neighbor?
Holst’s “militant” red planet Mars
Crimson star glows ominously
At 164 million miles from Earth

Theories abound
Scientists say Mars once had water
Microorganisms found
When...

creaking rust
spread to my tissues
am growing masses of
bulges appear out of hi-
ding sweat trickles odour
of yesterday humming like
tropical mosquitoes escalati-
ng the growth of surreptitious
microorganisms girls on the bikes
giggling and gossiping i watch like
a saint middle aged mamas perspiri-
ng ammonia and urea swirl in artifici

LIFE'S REASON?

Where do we figure in the universal scheme of things?
this unanswered question is likely to so remain
we could be so insignificant, our egos would suffer pain 
maybe we are caretakers, to preserve beauty in our domain?,
or no role at all may be our lot,...

No ... there would be no happy end to this story ...

No shining horizon or shimmering visions of tomorrow,
No joyous rhapsody of angels to greet us at the end of THIS tunnel.
The Big Apple was behind us now, fallen to the horrors of the epidemic...

The tides of the streams of Warri
Have been here with me
Since my wee school days in that town.

The brownish waters I guzzled
While swimming the streams in Uvwie.
The brackish waters I swallowed
While swimming the McIver 
And Udu Rivers in those days.

Have remained within through the years;
Pulling...

This SoothSayer's Warning – July 24th, 2021

Dire prognostications 
(terrestrial inhabitants blithely heeded)
with contemporary age
fortune tellers foretell day of (w)reckoning,

sans total mortal kombat annihilation
when human (and many) other innocent species
(stalwart cockroach adept to survive)
pitch headlong toward critical limit stage.

That eleventh hour fast upon mankind,
(as Earthlings speed...

Morbid fascination (mine) as covid-19 pandemic...
foments rampant monopoly on bedlam

Wreaking ball (his stick) havoc (think ostensible
civil war scale not seen since Vietnam),
whereby microorganisms jamb

complements of gook
resembling green eggs and ham
necessitating Doctor Seuss

to stoke bram
bullying cat in the hat
on a hot tin roof...

What?
I hope you are not serious, my fellow mortal!
Not serious when you suggest that we should
Eliminate death.

How could we?

This is preposterous!

But if you are serious, tell me how could we ever
Exist without the Lord of "darkness?"

Come on,
Do not be surprised by my question!
It may sound...

Lord been through this before
Thoughts so deadly that pierce my mind
She says to bury sin, just get high--
Pulse quickens as the city fumigates 

Cracked nails in a mirrored room
Sleep of a dusty kind is crawling
Now, no more lovers embrace
Just laying, food for microorganisms

I try to...
