Best Needlessly Poems
listen to life -
have you not heard me?
borne upon the air at dusk, dancing ... I have whispered you in a million voices
still, you descry not my utterance? Listen, yet, for all is precious ...

Lions Led By a DonkeyI could see the virus approaching so why couldn't he?
But he had to keep investors happy and save the economy
On his watch people in their thousands, died needlessly
The U.K. had a spiralling death rate, a preventable tragedy.
He didn't listen to the top scientists, they have...

Good RiddanceI welcomed you twenty twenty, a brand spanking new year
But all you brought with you was death, misery and fear
So I'll be glad to see the back of you and cant wait 'till you're gone
And I hope for better times in the year twenty twenty...

Our World Changing, Not For the Better - PotdIt's not hard to see or tell this world of ours
Isn't the same as it used to be. Granted, it has
Never been perfect, but I've seen better days
I've become numb to a cavalcade of bad news
That saturate the television, social media
The radio, the...

Dramatic Monologue
Dilemma
Looking at the pills in the palm of my hand,
Carvedilol, 3mgs.
2 pearls a day of life giving essence
or 92 ways to end the depression.
How neatly they lie in the crease of my skin
my broken lifeline peaking through them.
So white and smooth, so meek and small
it...

Mourn For the Little BabiesFor the little babies mourn
For the babies that are yet to be born
They are only fetusus many scorn
And mercilessly from their mothers womb torn
From every corner hear cries for human right
Yet ears are deafened to the unborns plight
Never to be heard their sqeals of...

Yet I Stayed, Wooed By Nascent Azure SkyCheerily blew ocean breeze in beach-park
Till fiery tides climbed bouncing giant rock
Spurred on by the churning clouds hosting dark
As hazy winds ravaged paths on your walk
Rattling lashing gust where fishing boats dock.
Stranger were we, till blinding storm hit blast
Pouring pelting rain on our budding talk,
Waddling...

O' What Is War But the Mad Child of Greed and HateO' What Is War But The Mad Child Of Greed And Hate
By uppity arrogance the mouse challenges the lion
And his haughty crown is fused nickel and tin
But 'tis true dark-clad world has far too much cryin'
All brought about by hungry appetites of mad men.
Mankind does...

CRY NO MOREI was lost, I was found, I was hunted, I was downed ,
Heard the screams of the whale when the harpoon has hit
Seen the burned out congregations when the fuses were lit
All the fury in war's faces and we're sick to death...

Epitaph
A "highly" Debated IssueFrom glaucoma to chemotherapy
Medical marijuana has its place
But you won’t find any prescribed
In the conservative Sunshine State
Chris couldn’t eat while under treatment
Watched him lose one-hundred pounds
He had no access to an appetite stimulant
His weight was 85 when laid in the ground
Hefty Jen had lived a...

Poverty and PowerDo you know a child
That will get up to play?
What if they died before tonight?
In the third world children are piled,
Thousands of them die every day,
Poverty is their daily plight.
Do you care?
Do you fight?
For you have the power,
You know it can't be right
So many...

The Functioning PsychopathEmotion has no place in the operating room, emotion cost lives.
Every time emotion comes into play, patients needlessly die.
In the operating room I am an emotionless machine.
I have a success rate that no neurosurgeon has ever seen,
and when I return home, I continue to be,
this...

Adieu To Petite MemoriesOn a cobblestone path,
All the remnants of a love that was
Like outstretched arms
Trees dance in the wind
The branches needlessly trying to
Grasp the petite memories
Holding them tight, refusing to let go
As the last drops of wine slip from
Your glass into your mouth
Announcing the final...

OceanWe are Winkin, Blinkin and Nod.
Many years this earth, we have trod.
We each had a dream, we three.
Winkin first said” my dream came back to me.
It was the Pacific Ocean calling to me you see.
Discarded plastics relentlessly thrown needlessly.
They form a canopy over the sea,...
