Best Predated Poems

Darn covid has most surely created,
toilet rolls as the product predated,
and I reached my goals;
hoarded two hundred rolls,
but suffer from being constipated....

Growing Up Poor
Miracle Man
1/26/2024

As a child
An empty oat meal box,
was my drum.

Two pencils,
fashioned my only sticks.

Didn’t have many suckers,
just my thumb.

But I had oodles,
inside my bag of tricks.


“You’ve heard the old saying
we were as poor as Job’s Turkey”?
Well, this predated Job even having a turkey.
But...

Africa is raped. The continent of life is pumped dry, and the colonizer won’t stop, ’till he is stopped. And blocked.

We pay colonial tax for the baskets we have weaved. Our own weaved baskets. We remain cocooned to a mask, a philosopher who has seen...

Ode to Silence

O primordial prelude, thou ancient sound, present before the earth was found. Interrupted by the voice of One who predated you, saying, “let there be,” and then allowing you to witness His creative power at work.

O ubiquitous companion, witness of the moment when...

Accidentally chanced upon
While browsing through a set of tomes
An unrequited love poem
Marked between the yellowed pages
Within a volume rifled through.
Thereupon, I eagerly read
The words in Edwardian script
Predated nineteen hundred six-
A sad age of class distinction- 
Where lines describe a futile love
Of two unfortunates in love
The...

Vast hollow hall, ambient glow entering slow on tiptoe
calls out “Hello! is anyone here?” 
Door hinge swing--by sight unseen
peripheral movement from the rear--none appear

One soft nudge connects, then more come next
and next, and next
Voice excited, nervous, bland--man, and man all man
device bubbles hover-crafted,
image profiles for...

Title 4/  BLANK CHECK 
Quote: "If one's actions are honest, one does not need the predated confidence of others."  Ayn Rand


Darkness came over that afternoon
As Christ died on the cross for our sin.
Lying is moving away from Him.
We need absolute forgiveness.
Honesty, true humility
To...

Light-beam captives dream,
Two betrothed angels with rainbows in flight
Amidst the heavenly crossroads that gleam
For earthly lovers who once delighted

Long before their hearts were blighted
With straying affections traveling in beams
The two would forever be united
In travel where the speed of light now reigns

Their essence flows in...

Serious intent to read
latest issue of TIME magazine
found attention pleasantly distracted,
when I became keenly aware
of flora and fauna bursting,

blooming, buzzing, and twittering
oblivious to yours truly sitting stock still
in folding lawn chair
marveling at each budding
natural born architect and engineer

each respective constituent
living organism engrossed
delicate as deft potters...

Yesterday And Today
Miracle Man
5-13-2022

Once I walked proud,
and my speaking was bold. 
This morning I sit thinking,
scratching my chin.
“Walking proud” predated,
my years turning gold.
Yet today’s thoughts produce,
a mischievous grin.

As years have accumulated,
 my steps have slowed.
Now balance problems require,
the use of a cane.
No longer are days...

reminiscence about similar weather
a few years ago when...

Back approximately half my life ago
dissociative disorder 
if qualified to self diagnose 
mein kampf psychological state...

I lacked emotions where others concerned.

That refrain replayed itself,
when wife picked up 
(like a broken record), 
where parents left off
before they entered 
another dimension 
(maybe the fifth)
of space and time...

Quote: If one's actions are honest, one does not need the predated confidence of others. 
~Ayn Rand

the night 
is still

the quiet
sound
of stars

caress
my soul

and soothe
with solitude

in dreams
I wander

and I am free
to simply be...

            Placeholder Avatar meditates faithfully 
on the fashion of understanding, 
adjoining together
nothing and everything.

Golden Intuition spurs self driven vehicle 
by the starry means of
the centrifugal forces of moment-tomes.

The mind transmigrating the realms of sacred...
