Best Piteously Poems

So many times we see someone in need
Most walk by while they piteously plead
Plead for help that may not come
Plead for love because they have none
So many people just don't take the time
To support their fellow man
Like it's too much to be kind
Too much to...

One day I delivered a poem
one that seemed to be premature
so I swaddled her up
and set her aside
to grow 'til I felt reassured

How she yowled and howled for attention...
how she cried so piteously!
How she coughed and she sneezed
whimpered and wheezed
then threw up all over me!

Still...

A stealthy tiger stalks his prey
His eyes alight with cunning gleam;
And tho' the world may peaceful seem
The lissome springboks graze and play --
The danger lurks, not far away

He crouches low, his muscles taught
While calculations fill his mind
The perfect arc of force to find;
His quarry, still...

"Seeded" 

planted in the mind, another way of being
outside spectrum, the act of forgiveness
the lore of love, united with the Seven Sisters

Written for Ink Empress' 'Unwritten Absence' Poetry Contest. 

C(ulpa)ble

Your unwritten absence unravelled much 
Disrobing piteously your impure intent
Starkly exposing a ravaged soul as such

Cocooned in dark yarns of deceit, I lay spent
In golden gilded cage tarnishing from neglect
Plated with cosmetic veneer for society's consent

Yet, you...

Once upon a time, Prunella
dwelt amid a magic wood
a dainty pixie most rare
whose temperament wasn't good

Last one of her purple line
in that dreary, dreaded glen
where beasts ever feared to tread
and mankind had never been

For purple pixies were known
to be devilishly mean
they'd terrified the kingdom
wherever they...

Like a mourning dove, my lament is spilled
  I cry in grief as shadowed night grows cold
    Spirit crushed from love's promise, unfulfilled
      Burdensome sorrows in my heart unfold

Succumbed by tears,  I piteously weep

She slunk through the grass
eyes firmly fixed on her prey.
The geese knew she was coming
and with hisses charged her.

Hair standing on end, crying piteously,
she fled the scene pursued with much
hooting and wing flapping.
Through the cat flap she shot.

At last they were gone, next time
perhaps a...

Like humans have a life,
Although people don’t face a murder charge
For hacking them down.

Like humans indulge in strife
But don’t wear their animosities like a barge
Nor noise them in the town.

Like man, parade a breathing mechanism,
Though it is carbon dioxide they cherish
And like him answers an...

Think for once why you lost him, twice why you kissed me
	And thrice why you met me – patient how much should I be?
	To endure this, pain but as pain and plague at full cry;
	Within the borders of this life when everything is just so...

I am, I guess, a tattered soul. 
A vagabond of sort. 
A derelict adrift at sea. 
No captain and no port. 

Nowhere to go, no one to guide.
This frail and haggard bark,
Aimlessly drifts out to sea, 
Piteously and stark. 

No pilot here the helm to...

I count it that I’ve once again won
For being fifty one:
On this day, the 15th June
High my stereo with tweeters tune;
In noise–prosecuting quarters to Victory ululate,
In advance vowing to not later vacillate,
For only a just-caught-and-now-brooding criminal
Or the fast-wasted by a disease terminal
Would to the Euphoric...

Looming, inescapably all around,

Enough to make one's heart sink,

Once and for all,

Enough to douse the surest, brightest light.


A mangy stray cat suddenly emerges from the

Gloom, walks up to one, meows piteously:

Company!

On such a night as this:  Company as

Welcome as any wise teacher's, any noble...

Eagle-Rare is The Union,
All her members’ arms pinion, 
Not with a from-behind arm twist  
But thrills that can dare a long list …

You join her you pray to not leave,
You indiscreetly go ahead to leave,
You never cease to piteously grieve
Or emotive sighs endlessly heave....

Boko haram terrorists

Times without number
A neighbourhood unsettling with a bomber,
Their grabbed territories
Zones of a thousand worries!

A people in panic
Piteously plan their escapes route,
Their pursuers, a manic,
Who must them funnily shoot!

It’s a horizon of unthinkable sleep
And the digging of graves not decently deep:
It’s a constant brandishing...
