Best Outwits Poems

Terror has returned to the heart of Gotham City
Commissioner Gordon’s task sure isn’t pretty
Penguin, the Joker and Riddler are back on the scene
Stirring terror in our hearts, they sure are so mean
Wearing his mask and cape is our hero Bruce Wayne
With Batman around we hope...

I’m told the pen’s mighty and outwits the sword
but my finger is stronger and won’t be ignored.
It pokes and it swipes and it rants in a roast
then it quickly DELETEs to disguise my last post.

Though swords, they can cut, and pens, they can shame
the press...

Our crazy hurry outwits our wits
We wish it is not true. the car speed.
The restaurants. the caution in the winds.
The rape and early sex the little child
Now knows, whose overwhelming juvenility
Had made men mad and wild 
We too are perpetrators of the deed
That beckons wails...

My husband and I, we are not the jealous sort.
But once in a while a green-eyed monster peeks in.
He comes lurking about to diminish our joy.
Not enough to destroy, but too often to toy.

Hubby is a skillful photo-shop-artist with vast finesse.  
I on the...

Woman
Outwits with her smile
Men’s roughness.
An angel that
Never leavs in  his despair...

This long time doodling Yankee 
(who calls Southeastern Montgomery, Pennsylvania LV
plus III four seasons visited 
   upon swath of topography to see
and hear flora and fauna over run 
   via industrialization he doth experience pity
sympathy, humanity deafening cacophony undermining

ECHOES FRO THE STREET
VOICES OF DECEIT
FLAMES OF FURY FREELY LIT
DANCE STEPS AND RHYTHMS OF A DRUMLESS BEAT

SICKENING THOUGHTS IN SICKENED MINDS
IMPENDING MELEE WITHOUT SIGN
FORWARD AND ONWARD MOVEMENT OF TIME
IMPERSONATIONS AND DELIBeRATIONS ON THE FRONTLINE

SHRILLING SHOUTS OF JOY AND PAIN
AND FREELY MOVES THOSE ONES INSANE
PARADOX UNLEASHED...

As to when,
the pen falls eerily.
The sadness of lust,
a perilous dusk
for thee that settles 
upon the many wary.

As Edgar's Lenore,
reminded,
the Crow's greed
and nestle.
There spied the 
Raven,
crying for thee
the more merrily.

When lovers' qualm
exacted by traitor,
the courtships of 
evermore befallen.
The arduous array
of made up serenity.

This fate of...

Each twinkle, spark and 
glitter of a shining star
outwits the dark sky
illuminating full moon
a "beauty" for my pure heart

Quilt patchwork lines from verse of old,
Urge of past poise hurls a fine say;
Ink stains not mine in grooves once told,
Look to shape voice in a new way;
Touch thrills clear flow to cast clear mime.
Play of sweet sketch to prime straight face,
Arc as blooms show...

Meet moments meek through troubled times,
Yield to the soul what heart knows best.
Give what you seek as contrast rhymes,
Reap a true whole that flavours quest;
Align with mind that you may know,
Notice the way life happens then;
Dance as you find peace that funds glow.
Primal the play...

She, like a pink Garnet or rubies, has attracted me,
Her, as my playmate of childhood, all around I could see;
Amid dahlia, daisy, cosmos, crocus, phlox, rue, and pinks,
She has pervaded my garden as queen above all jinks...!

She was my finest gift to sweet Jesus on...

           outwits himself even when


           playing solitaire !...

The daily task of life sustained by care,
the generous spirit by endeavors in dare. 
The eager force that creates the path so bright,
taken the courage to the darkest invisible light.
That natural instinct of righteous concern,
with the wisdom that can perform and is diligent to learn.
Those...
