Best Pandora Poems
Prometheus had erred and caused great ire
when stealing in stealth secrets of fire.
But Zeus could not forgive this deed.
The chieftain of gods punished his greed.
The lightning zigzagged across the sky,
in anger he let thunderbolts fly.
Instructions he gave to mould from earth
a woman endowed to prove her worth,
all humans to touch their lives and shift
the balance with her seductive gift.
Hephaestus was told what to create;
Pandora came forth through heaven’s gate.
Athena supplied her silver gown,
her head she adorned with ornate crown.
She hastened to guile the human race
her nature refined to tempt by grace
alluring deceit that knew no shame
her mission withstood distrust or blame.
Pandora’s torment flowed wide and far.
She carried with her an earthen jar.
Instructions were laid to be obeyed
to keep it enclosed and so it stayed
till yearning became hard to resist
temptation knew well how to insist.
Alone by herself beside a brook
she lifted the lid, a glancing look
that opened the flood to evil force
unhindered it spread and took its course.
She panicked and pushed with all her might;
the damage was done – eternal plight.
A trickle of hope was left inside
but hardly enough to turn the tide.
When laws are defied they cause much grief;
the pleasure derived is false and brief.
Temptation is what destroys the weak;
redemption is there for all to seek.
Forever in life it’s hard to cope.
Pandora we chase in search of hope.*

* Pandora is chased for the only thing left in her jar – hope.

I live in a faraway densely forested habitable moon,
orbiting in the central Alpha Centauri star system.
I am a blue-skinned sapient humanoid,
and a pride of Omaticaya clan in paradise of Pandora.
I own the beauty of precious gem, a diamonds that glow.
Glistens like a crystal water softly flowing in a stream.
I love to ride in a back of Toruk, my flying dragon friend,
While embracing the love of the man, my avatar king.
The nature is where my heart beats...
I love the scent of flowers bloom in the field.
And enthralled my emotion with the song of birds.
Then make love with the avatar in the midst of forest.
In the land of Pandora, I cherish the love that I've found.
The gift of goddess Eywa, our life has sustained.
Value every single tears that these eyes held,
Then give all my strength to defend the beauty of our place.
This is where I found the man who changed my world.
I treasure every moment that our eyes met.
With his hands I feel secured,his touch made me stronger .
His lips I surrendered all the love I can share.
Nature and love , an eternal power from within.
This world has a lot of precious things to offer.
Come to me, let us dance in the psalm of breeze.
And cherish this divine freedom from within.
Inspired by fictitious character of "Neytiri"
from the movie "AVATAR"

Epic
**PANDORA*
All you can hear is a deep shallow cackle
Eyes filled with thirst for the world
Lips so pure you can feel the taste of adventure
Pandora!
The glaring glass of beauty
Such treason
Her smiles rooms deepest worries
Her hands a beacon, the signal light for enemies
*PANDORA*
Hail the dark queen
Daughter of lord Lucifer
Her soul is the shinning moon
Ready to inflict the world with her sufferings.
Cruel like a broken bottle
You tricked me; and betrayed my trust.
Fed me with the forbidden fruit of evil
Now, I'm wicked
Evil lives within her rage
Dangerous like the rumbling thunder.
A victim of smiles and insidious trauma
Inflicting her share on the world
Slowly she mocks the living with air to breathe
Grasping souls
Seducing men with just a twist
A twist and that smile
That turns oceans to bleeding red sea
Sea of pains and tears
Dark hair turns grey
Even the loving heart got burnt.
The flowing river weeps the contagious tears.
While the mighty sun shines with coldness
I'm lost on the earthly world.
She want justice!
But her kindness spread evil
Stake our heart with a deadly dagger
A serial killer
Not of bodies but souls
Handing the key to the devil
Pandora
The daughter bore of the earth
Hail the dark queen
Mother of wandering souls
Father to wandering souls
And a guardian to us
Pandora!
You brought sour to our lives.
Death to our fate.
The gods are angry
You shall be buried beneath our feet.
Your blood shall be use to cleanse our mother's land.
Along with your atrocities
The era of eradicating your evil act.
The devil shall pay for the price

everyone thinks yours is just another Eve story
the first woman
punished for desiring knowledge
and for disobedience
but people forget you were created by the gods
as a gift of revenge for men,
all beauty and mischief–
no, not ‘and’
but ‘therefore’:
it’s boring to be bait:
after a minimal amount of effort and imagination
to maximize god-given qualities
(the male sexual response being far from complex,
this was far from challenging)
what is there?
it’s not easy to be satisfied with attracting men
as a raison d’être–
so that’s why.
__
As a punishment for the possession of fire, Zeus ordered that a beautiful woman be made and given to mankind–she was named Pandora, ‘the gift of all’. Each of the gods had given her some quality that would prove ruinous to man. In one version, these ‘gifts’ were her incredible beauty, her goodness, and her youthful, shy, demeanour, which alone destroyed man for their power to distract and delight. In another version, the gods put the ‘gifts’ in a box and forbid her to open it.
Purpose plays pun
Arc aids alarm
Now nothing numbs
Decide deft ditch
Odd old outreach
Rich rustic raid
Aid arms afraid
Churn charming cheer
Honour host here
Attend aware
Restore ride rare
Apply and aid
Desire drops dead
Embrace empty
Sense sad story
Pleasure primes plot
See stylish slot
Yield yonder yoke
Choose charming choke
Health heaps honey
Endings easy
Calm clever choice
Heavy hearts hoist
Appoint apt art
Roomy retard
Mull million makes
Suffer sweep stakes
Nowhere near now
Aid and avow
Indulge ingrate
Verse voice vibrates
Embrace endow
Mind moves matter
Ask apt answer
Now not never
Keep knocking kind
Itch inks incline
Note nice niche near
Dance doubting dear
Healing hurts here
Explore extend
Real roasting rears
Encroach expanse

(Note: This is an Acrostic poem with Alliteration.)
It’s dangerous to be listening to Pandora
At 2:00 in the morning.
For good music only reminds you
That life is now boring
Cause he went away
Pandora makes you want to burn every Jane Austen book
You ever read
Sleep on the floor
And burn all the mattresses - on every bed
Since he went away
Curse every song Pandora chose
And watch the news instead
Let the dog walk itself
For you only feel like rollin’ over and playin’ dead
Since he went away
Every song on Pandora is just wrong!
Because they leave you knowing
That you are lonely
And you
just
can’t keep going…
Cause he went away
I'll surely rise behind the cloud to a new day dawning,
though sun's rays may grow fewer, secure in grace.
My mind turns to all the days shared without worry of touch, or grave of thought, and found breath free of pestilence, same as you.
Now I remain silent, through Purell's sweet scented night,
hands grow warm, feverish brow warns away.
Warns away your touch I so desperately need to feel alive and stay.
Please never forget this hour, pierced by a knife, pedals torn from the flower.
And please I pray, remember me.., always.
Pandemically Yours,
Pandora
(Poetry) let it thicken as it stands.
Let it be beautiful, unharnessed verbal rage or
song or deed, or graven image set in stone, where
walls fell around some demagouge in
some ill-remembered time.
$IN
In our arrogance we place this
joyous thing in
chain$
We seek to give it rules and charter, duties and forms but
the ravenous beauty of our thinking has outsmarted us.
and,
much like pandora's discretion,
when the first man (Or Woman)
-chicken or egg get over it-
pressed his stick to dirt and made his mark he unleashed a
torrent that can never be held at bay.
(Poetry) will not be held in fief, and the
Box which was held by the daughter of Zeus
is
open.
And I for one am glad of it.
Let it light our hearts ablaze and temper our
might with frost, let
the last vista overlooking the plauge of perpetuity be
LOST
this is a line
see it incline
this is my mind
it is a line
this is a clock
see it strike shock
these numbers stop
tuck shop, tick-tock
this is a blade
hollow like a spade
clean plate, clean slate
just you wait
this is a box
those are his socks
count the hair locks
the axis stops
this is a picture
see every feature
tell us, teacher
is this the future?
PANDORA AND THE CIRCLE JERK
She made the rounds each night at nine
and he was there all of the time
but he knew trouble was her ploy
so passed her for another toy
then threw them both away.
His life was loose, a lib'ral crime
and he beat off most of the time
she'd be disaster and he knew
if he'd touch her, he'd fall into
a place where he would stay.
He breathed the weed for his sublime
between tequila and the lime
but love was longer than the dance
and peace of soul was circumstance
so he kissed her one day.
His passion flowed out from all time
into his life that didn't rhyme
and then he jerked so hard he broke
between his lime and second toke
and cried his life away.

Pandora of loving
When you love,
You hardly heed to the beckoning pain,
When you love,
You are clouded with the mist of the posed fantasy,
When you love,
You often bairn yourself to give it all,
But is it a guarantee to be paid the same?
Is it a sacrament of the ordain pouted love you expect?
No, I don't think so,
When you are in love,
Wake up to avoid a broken heart,
Is a Pandora of falling in love
The HIGH hope/ Financial FREEDOM
There one meets oneself
To offer everything
You lost it, you lose yourself
To bring it
It runs and goes round
It's silent and makes sound
Wanna make full mama purse
I am dying for it to get bless
The wise say Freedom is not free
the wise is me
But financial freedom is Pandora's tree
To grow wild, to be the shade and shadow
Setting the mark to look up and below
The love of money lets faded my purity
And not having it puts me on the casket of inferiority
I die today to rise above tomorrow
To share the tear, to clear Mama's sorrow
To have a bunch of it, I will set myself for the death raw
I felt like a garbage collector standing on the corner
Hustling so hard money for the shower
Our life is fitly when the hope is up
Am the man of the hour and rise above the crap
liberation operating eternally Unfolding a world of light
bright ideas no penny to start lost gaze in the sight
Am gonna be alright ….
Cause financial freedom is the hope
Cause that's the trophy I want to cope
Dope hope...the imagination of empty poke
PANDORA REDUX
There are songs I must not listen to
And poems I cannot read,
Photographs and letters
Which cause a heart to bleed
Some found on yellowed paper
In books to hold a place
To guide returning readers
At some later date
Stacks of faded letters
Writ in a firmer hand
Pressed blossoms
loveingly bound with ribbons
Or kept in stacks in
Dusty boxes
On the top shelf
Of a rarely opened closet.
Magic carpets come to mind
With power to evoke the sounds, smells
and places of the past
long since passed into reverie
Handle with Care.. There Be Tigers……….
The mining company
Has confirmed of a place
Its in the Alpha Centauri
Deep out into space
Their provisional scouts
Miners and Geologists
Declare seams of Unobtanium
In a jungle greened mist
Expedition and workforce
With their military men
Set of to this planet
To mine this precious gem
The day arrives
As their equipment scores
Months now having passed
Leaving incredible sores
Their expansion of greed
On this planet so green
Turns the indigenous Na'vi
Against man and machine
With their ingenious science
Of Na'vi-human hybrid
They create avatars
Entering their mental state grid
Infiltrating this species
To gain them on their side
So that mans greed can prosper
Whilst another culture slides
The inevitability of conflict
Indigenous against modern man
Bows and arrows against bullets
The fighting has just began
This species on this far distant planet
Who are in tune with their natures surrounds
Watch on in horror as mans flying machines
Bring their Hometree to the ground
This stirs up this indigenous nation
To rise up against mans greed
With their harmony with nature
Unites all the planets breeds
The might of modern man
Has met their match this day
And sent them back where they came from
For once a planet saved from decay
