Best Motherpeople Poems


Rotting Flesh

I am rotting flesh. Ambivalent and obnoxious, but content with the irrational idea that I
am immortal. As I walk through the path of life, I hemorrhage thoughts. My naked body,
impregnated with ideals…exposes the divine truth of the defined sacredness of a goddess.

My womb has silently concealed its artsy life giving power. My breasts with scarcity
foster the image of the fountain of life. I rather find them amusing mortals. I curtail my
hips from collecting the souls of those who in their biological need try to disperse their
seed.

As I bare my bones for the people to see that an immortal like me cannot be part of the
"some" but instead part of the whole. I collect myself from the bloody path that disturbs
the ultimate truth.

My lungs collapse when I breathe arrogance and ignorance from the people that think that
they indeed know what reality is. I proceed to live anonymously, putrefying along the way.

Namely Confusion

Sometimes I feel the urge to curse my mother,
For the day she chose my name!
I love it so, and people say it's pretty,
A shame she forgot that it's a guy's name!

It makes for some laughs,
And a lot of explaing.
Guilt for me when people realise,
But I say "such as", Life's dull without suprise!

My Mother's Love 2

you give me your heart 
i will try never to make it fall apart
the love that you have for me
it feels my life continously

when people break my heart
i come to you, you fix it part by part
i will never stray away
why, because today is your day

the life that i am living to see 
would be nothing if you were apart from me
the love that you give i will forever keep
for that i am your little sheep

it's my mothers love yeah you all know it's true 
what can people do except hate on you
i know you will always be there 
for you are always here
