Best Pends Poems


In Dionysian Sacrifice

I wish to write another song
to show my soul some dignity
which trodden was for ages long
by demons of antipathy
that all its joy 'pends not on queens
but on the mind that shapes machines
which liberate humanity
from worldly bales and misery.

Aye I say a woman is mirth
in whose sweet bosom we rejoice
whose harvest is an infant's birth.


Sex nature's inexorable voice
calls peremptorily all men
whose fleshy urges have no end.
It enslaves by invocation
our souls to its convocation
in Dionysian sacrifice.

How Long Punctuations

No question mark should precede my time.
No exclamation should startle your thoughts.
No apostrophe should suspend our feelings.A full stop must end the confusion.

Waves crush against the rocks,abetting,retreating from my grip!
How would you possibly grasp water?
The mystery gets worse,when at the horizon the ship's smoke is seen.

Time is,pause,play,slow and the 3D view of the-ship of love-in daylight is like a fading silhouette.

Your not here yet.

Sinking my feet under the wet sand,tuned from the heat of a steady sun.
I reckon,that sunset too is suspending itself.

So! This is how love,pends,when you wait for it at the wrong place?

Where water,earth and mankind converge.
How much longer shall we wait for Love to 'dock.'...

By Carswell E aka the punctuated patient

The Dad I Use To Know

My Dad, a little honest like a Priest

Taught me how to live and feast

With bangles of gold and diamond to your wrist

After a bloated tummy chant petitions due east

Son, nothing your path spare like a beast

'Cos amongst earth you're spared not to be the least

Told me life's but an illusion of morns mist

Gentle and rough 'pends on the angle you twist

I hail this sage who but on papers make no list.

dancin' in Puddles
sometimes getzya wet
with elements worthy
tho oft taught discouragely.

I like mud 'tween my toes
Don't like grass up my nose
Grasshoppers are cool
So is old school 

And new school is too
believe it or not
more pends on the care tos
than clutchin to..... whot?

Dreaded Droplet

J-eopardy of dreaded droplet
O-nerously attacks the mouth; 
S-trike is felt all over the world, 
E-ndangering the East, West, North, and South.
P-andemic plague in dreaded droplet
H-orribly hurts nose by surprise; 
I-nvisible infection from Wuhan
N-astily assaults everyone's
E-yes.

B-arbaric brutality of dreaded droplet
U-ses the fearsome fever; 
E-erie epidemic of sickness
N-otoriously lets lungs suffer.
A-trocious ailment in dreaded droplet
V-iciously threatens the throat; 
E-xcruciating thing in silence
N-efariously brings risk to the boat.
T-he World Health Organization
U-pends the global fret; 
R-estrictions and lockdowns
A-bate the dreaded droplet.
