Best Omission Poems

As I
Soak in hummingbird’s exhale
I feel tragic sonatas
Trying to chain
Trying to crucify
My sedentary grip on instability

I smell the repugnant commoner
Blasting scattered shots
Against yesterday’s decent

I became the handsome error again.

The godfather of uplifting idle minds
Sedated within the bosoms of complacency
Because, indirectly, I was the inebriated screw-up
Immunized...

Solid roots buried deep within the earth
Though a chimera
Far above the dense ground
High high above
Where there is no one else around
But down down below
To a place rarely talked about
Where everybody goes

To confront the darkness that lies within
Slowly eating away at our soul
Slowly devouring us all

A...

It has never been my intension
nor was it ever a bone of contention 
to alter or disrupt the social convention
but now is the time to pay close attention
to the decline of the human condition

Responsibility rescinded creating moral decomposition
accountability abandoned causing legal repercussion
right and wrong are...

~Parallel strands of blonde silk hide her vulnerable eyes.
If only to foresee what shall lye ahead.
Surrender to my embrace Ophelia.
Judgement nor prejudice dispel a hearts' affection.
Lay now bound journal.
Rippled with twill,tell your jaded past.
May lips sealed try to speak.
Solace crests upon a subdued soul.
I rest...

please suspend me high

Great sins of omission
are not in anyone's book of
What I Plan To Do When I Grow Up.

Henry Ford,
his automated
and then incorporated
financial investment company,
did not intend to emancipate us
from family farms,

Thereby disenfranchising
our sense of secure 
and fertile wealth health,
interdependently sufficient
organic homes,
silent rhythmic rural memories,

Fading views and...

When you tell me your doing 
something, and don't 
Is that a lie?
I feel deceived, in not what you 
did
But in what you failed to own.

Feeling hurt, I wonder why
Was that the truth, 
Is that a lie?
Deserving more than in my 
youth. 

Are you unthoughtful,...

Crimson robed closed eyes
in the Holy See
	that don’t say

Upper chamber veiled deceit — 
A wizard wand wave
in the Sistine Chapel cache cave

Young boys’ virgin olive oil innocence
sacrificed on the sunken altar
			          of concupiscence

Lust incense burning
the foul...

Maybe I should have told you how much I cared
and admitted how much you mean to me

Maybe I should have opened my heart to you
and revealed my innermost secrets

Maybe I should have let you know that I love you
and could have bared it all

The signs...

Insult by omission, oozed from her remark
When by chance they happened to pass in the park
Some steps beyond
On him it dawned
That what she said was, "Hello there tall and dark!"...

Our truth was a lie, our reality many strands of carefully
Edited circumstances. We he had taught our minds to
See what we wanted and ignored all else. We were a great team,
A well-oiled machine. We said things like “I’ll miss you dear” and
“I love you to...

Top notch legal scholar Erin Go Braw

You whispered to me ‘I know how to love,’
I think, am I an echo or clear sound?
There’s a question I need to get rid of;
Do you think of me when I’m not around?

The next time you see me may be the last,
perhaps I should say...

When Christians get cold
as we sometimes will.
Needing a little encouragement
to get on up life's hill.

Around us we look
there hoping to find.
Just one fellow Christian
who will pay us some mind.

I seems most are too busy
with things all our own.
Laboring for the carnal things
instead of God's throne.

We...

at times what was not said
speaks louder than what was said
