Best Misdirect Poems

It is the house of consciousness
channeled from above
It is the home where dreams reside
The cozy place of love

Invisible, intangible
distinct from flesh and bone
commingled with the breath of life
brought forth by God alone

The coverings that we can see
the body, clothes and hair
can misdirect the human eye
from...

Zoning by micro-climates my
Yards' spaces, and then
Xeriscaping them to conserve
Water because of the drought, I can
Visualize neat straight furrows
(Under colorful vines
Trailing red, green, and purple grapes)
Saturated with various seedlings:
Radishes, squashes, sprouts, etc.
Quietly absorbing sunlight, and
Pushing roots deeper into my
Organically amended soil.
Nasturtiums, previously planted,
Misdirect insects away...

When I was a kid, I know, long ago,
We scrumped apples from neighbours orchards,
Climbed trees, scared bees, skinned our knees,
And once, quite daft, built a raft on the river exe,
Which upended before I knew about vanishing stability,
Or indeed, even my own ability, to do important...

Lots of praise, but little respect,
So many days, what do they expect?
My job is a maze, to serve and protect.
It hardly pays, last time I checked.
Into past I gaze, hardly time to reflect.
Could have gone many ways, why select,
My choice displays, too late to defect.
Myself...

Sometimes people manipulate circumstances point fingers;
And paint accusatory renderings of destruction;
Muted with the colors of intention to misdirect and discredit.
But when the dust settles the flags of honor can still be seen flying
And even though a house of love may be under siege;
There may be...

Oh sing yon violin upon your strings
and play harps and lutes melodious things
come sooth my soul and for our losses
and shatter pain upon our bed of mosses
 
Dost thou dare to stay our hearts entwined
do cast your light and airy within our mind
so also to...

As I blunder
Misdirect my course
Falling away
From recourse
I sit and sigh
The time is nigh
To get up and 
Stand fast
Get a career
So my family can last...

The Truth

I am here to make you...
uncomfortable. 
I am the truth, 
the whole truth, 
nothing less than, 
but there is more. 

The problem is you never look for it. 
You never step outside your zone, 
your place of origin, 
your home inside, 
where you hide....

Take me
Shape me
Misdirect me
You always want to see me
Down on my knees

For ever
And ever
I will always
Be there in front of your face
Screaming

For years
And years
I have been obliged
Followed your rules
Without doubt or question

It is time
for change
MY words
Echoing in YOUR ears
Fear no longer exists

You will always
Try to...

If there’s no god, why show respect
for pain that’s felt by an insect,
for doesn’t that in part deflect
from order’s natural select
which did from soup somehow infect,
cajole or otherwise confect
life as we know it, and inject
complexity, until bedecked,
upon the scene comes Man, erect?

A pain-free god’s what...

2016 began on 8.13 and ended on 9.30 2017.
Betrayed and inhaling for the last 9 minutes,
My mother shooed with imaginary broom,
The puny demon trying in final futility
To misdirect her soul.
She breathed her last at 1800 or so.
Hail Marys pumping faster with each step toward God's...

Therapy is afraid of me,
I'll write it down for you to see. 
The mental examination process of my necropolis, 
Abomination  of mental stability, into a thought abyss.
If you think before you act, you're ability surly increases,  
Leave your emotions at the door or you...

Slippery and slick
Greasy 
Teflon
Eel
Grasping the truth like
Driving 
Without
A wheel

Divert them and misdirect
Hide
Slink
Slither
It all will mount up
Soul
Shrink
Wither

Smoke and Mirrors
Shade
Shadows
Dark
Where will it end?
Life 
Without
Spark

Be straight and true
Open
Honest
Sincere
More of this we need
Truth
We should 
Revere

Are you honorable?
Upright
Decent
Good 
Do you have values?
Exist 
Without
A hood

Be who you really are
Arrow
Straight
Upright
Not another mask
Hidden...

The time of your life is now.
Your past is no more
And your future is tomorrow.
The essence of life, and the world,
Is planted in your soul
And grows like wild daffodils.
The light shining from within you
And the peace you radiate
Attract those around you.
Some may try to mislead...
