Best Piercing Poems

In the shadowed field, the night breaks
into a cacophony of cries, sharp and piercing.
A pack of coyotes, voices tangled in hunger and triumph,
sings a chilling lullaby in the darkness.

Their song, a harbinger of life meeting its end,
echoes through our open bedroom window,
a reminder of the...

We 
notice 
space flicker,
signalling that
we can penetrate
the veil of emptiness,
by softening attention,
in a stillness continuum,
animated by our pure intent,
to awaken within this lucid dream.

Gently laying to rest, labours of mind,
by shifting from thinking to feeling,
poised in awareness unblinking,
putting on pause flow of time,
without employing force,
we...

Through pale of eve, my eyes can see
beyond the trellis where I stand
a rose awaits, brushing the ground
through pale of eve, my eyes can see
needles of thorns ,calling for me
where tips of sadness purls around
through pale of eve, my eyes can see,
beyond the trellis where...

Piercing my heart:

Her nose-pin twinkles at me,
Her lip-ring smiles at me,
Her dark eyes make me lust,
Leaving everything like rust.
Her cheek-piercings make fake dimples,
Fake eyelashes arise ripples,
Inside my heart.
She is a prostitute from Havana,
I first met her in a sea-side cabana,
On my head, she fastened a...

Remembrances lead to longing for souls once united in time long ago
still precise in memory now only in far distant accounts long closed
unreachable and compartmentalized without any semblance to reality 
like snowflakes hypnotic white illusions of distorted reflections untouchable
 
The predictable heart in relentless wandering...

Piercing Our Hearts

Countries are torn apart over our children.
Being physical, mental, sexual pained
Wounded, broken, watching dismemberments.
Their selfish taste of blood in the name of god
Violence against our women and children

The tide keeps growing in numbers of hatred
Attracting women and children guerrillas, 
Who blow-up their bodies...

On the wings of mercury        She slips into my soul        Using kind words and 
memories       To mend this gaping hole     ...

There is a higher being 
one that chooses to speak the truth through us 
To not believe is a grave disobedience parallel to disobeying the word  
in the new covenant the circle is complete 
You must take this wound and cover it for what...

Pain
pierces
so deeply
wounding the soul
Leaving scars inflected by deception
Hurling it’s arrows of deceitfulness
Puncturing peace
Impaling
The heart's
Bliss...

You saw into the very depths
of all that I rarely share;
all of me, bared before you
yet you didn't even care.

Cold, icy, penetrating,
eyes that could freeze
molten lava - bitter, morose,
but underneath a spark did tease.

A playful glimmer, deeply hidden,
true warmth radiating with the word
of love you...

Here in my room,
I lay in my bed,
With every thought of you,
Intruding my head,
Like snapshots in my brain,
Of the last thing you said,

My gut is violated,
And I twitch with rage,
I cannot free myself,
From this anxiety ridden cage,
And in this chapter of our life,
It seems I...
