Best Patching Poems
Of Days Gone BySometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I dream
Of Days gone by
Life was hard, each day we learned
We never wanted what we hadn’t earned
A handshake at the bank was the only must
Lives were built on faith and trust
Friday night dances at the school’s old gym
Pledge of Allegiance...

Not for Contest - Impact of AI on poetsOh AI you are the tell I need
Painted orange words in the feed
Liars revealed that hide behind screens
With false personas and insufficient means
You provide generic words, never in tune
The vibe is off, you've misread the room
Fake spending time within a hearts space
Analyse algorithms without...

The Needle Stings But SewsGrandmother sits in her rocking chair
nearly as old as she
ragged patches of scrap spread across her lap.
She tells stories from her eighty years of senescence,
of faces now aged, some no longer bound by this earth
as though they were still enjoying...

The PromiseFast forward to the mysterious gift known as the present.
I finally accepted her into my monotonous life's content.
I thought my knowledge of survival made me super duper clever.
But even the cleverest has flaws that can make em ever wiser.
Acknowledging it is good but patching it...

Broken and TornBroken and torn from days long gone
Not from neglect or anything wrong
A family often would sit and communicate
I tried to listen, most times I could relate
I loved that family that crawled on me
Having fun playing games or watch TV
Late into the evening the girls would...

Recollections From the Golden Cree II know of a river of more than average
Sorts...
Meandering, when not dallying to maunder,
Between many differing contours
And unruly contorts;
Where a privileged youth once
Happily sought -
Pursuing about his passions
In the traditional methods
By which his better elders
Did most insist he was thereby taught.
Reinforced throughout...

The FloodHow little the clouds think when they glow white
forming shapes tossing about
when filled with moisture oh how grey they will be
until they shed themselves of this heaviness
like a heart in love skips a beat
but when broken you can literally drown you see
Then those tears oh...

After the StormAfter the storm
The havoc is over and the sun is back
Patching up with light the heart's crack
Devastating is the scene of the aftermath
But there is a flower in the cluttering path
Though the storm was fierce and utterly cruel
The vanishing Hope got up to refuel
Deafening silence...

My UnfoldI died a long time ago
It was when I realized that I couldn't find my ego
In responding to a million of hovering black crows
Feasting slowly on every hair of my eyebrows
Made me swear never to borrow
Other people's life force, life line or even life show
For...

Be Human For a DayThe World has been playing a game
Oh what a shame
The world has been playing a game
This is insane
Leaders come and leaders go
Leaving me to continue the show
Leaders come and leaders go
Repeating the show of long ago
Many have no imminent plans
Others are in it to suck...

Gather At the River - Glimpses of Epiphany ContestWe shall gather at the river
Immortal words of a hymn
That believers of spiritualism
When they meet will sing
People that go beyond the grave
Returning with messages apart
For the folks they left behind
Patching up a broken heart
Some people think that this is wrong
Their religion tells them so
Would they...

The Dark PoetO, letting my thirsty, thirsty thoughts slip
off from the back of my head onto the
screen of your great lie as smart as a whip
leads me back to the berry field where we
used to stroll our shadows, to ravage this
love, smearing it with...

We Are All NamelessWe are all Nameless
What else is there to do
but to tell you who I am,
but most of all,
what I wish to find.
I am not the cavalier of the sun,
but the caveat of phantasm.
I do not wish to live in the whispers of light,
nor...
