Best Put Behind Bars Poems


With Pen In Hand
With pen in hand
How little the world seem to me
How powerful I do feel
For there’s nothing I can’t handle
Everything I tackle
Criminals I put behind bars
Minds I sharpen
With pen in hand
I am a hero

With pen in hand
I am a legend
For my words are filled with power
For...

Premium Member Least Viewed Poem - Old King Troll Written For Alexis Y
Original nursery rhyme ~ Old King Cole

“Old King Cole was a merry old soul
And a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe, and he called for his bowl
And he called for his fiddlers three.
Every fiddler he had a fiddle,
And a very fine fiddle...

The Generation Gap 2
The Generation Gap

The fragile, flawless ice encased 
the crumbling soil below
And with it brought bitter winter’s taste – 
the seed that wouldn’t grow.

Many a foggy year ago, 
the father had bought the plant
Had carried it, through the ice and snow,
to his little son’s wish, grant.

Once...

The Incurable Society's Ills
Two scales must always be within an approximate range
for an accurate weight, and the close relationship
between the Humankind and God must withstand any change.


Solutions must be found before catastrophe approaches,
and if we were caught by surprise, we would regret the outcome;
less trees should be cut...

Bullets and Bars
Bullets and Bars

There goes another one
Shot or put behind bars
Put behind bars with battle scars 
Scars from protests
Ones from which whites try to contest
These white cops try to put us to rest
But we just raise one fist to show who’s best

Bullets and Bars

These whites try...

Happy Freedom Day, In South Africa
Freedom was preached, 
Millions of South Africans waited,
Waiting for many years.
The regime was very
Hash to  some folks, 
And privileged the minority.
Disadvantaged people 
Cried yearly, 
No one cared for them, 
Discrimination and racism 
Were the major problem 
In the entire South Africa.
More black people were 
Tortured,
Shot,
Chopped,
Arrested,...

21st Century Imperialism
Your country has laws 
freedom and rights 
that lead to the courts 
who settle up fights 

You think it’s a given 
yet see it unfair 
determined and driven 
but going nowhere 

A victim of racism 
keeps you beneath 
prevented by sexism 
seeking relief 

being gay...

If I don't marry this man's daughter, I'm as good as dead.
His daughter is pregnant and somehow he thinks I'm the dad.
I've tried to tell him that I'm not but he won't...

Educate Me
Educate me people
Can you hear me from the steopel?
How can you learn from the streets?
I know hip-hop can teach you different beats
Music can teach you a lot I'm sure
Reggae, hip-hop, r&b, and etc. are so pure
How can you learn from a friend?
Someone who always sin

If You Are Tricked By Devi's Beauty
I just do not care myself

If you are tricked by a devil’s beauty
And rush to staunchly support me
And squash all the allegation pitted against
And term me an honest or innocent and set me free
Yet I won’t go to support me
I stand strongly against myself
As I...

Slain Dog
You wanted to make a rapist suffer after he got out on parole.
You succeeded but by doing so, your heart became as black as coal.
