Best Rebel Poems

In the library, at last I am freed
from others’ wishes for what I should read.
Book after book I most gladly peruse
with all these free hours I now get to use
finding books that I love; not just books that I need!

The books about science which teachers...

She doesn't believe in quiet love
wasn't born to bleed shyly,
couldn't care about the cost of conquest,

Too beautiful to be bitter, and too young to be cynical,
a cerebral seducer, a critical killer of caution,
too clever to be a casualty of competition,
the antithesis of a quiter
a warrior...

Archetypes flash straight from a pack of Tarot cards
anti-terror Jing Jang synthesis with neuro-spiritual precision
implants explosive animation from the deep unknown
like a taro rootstock growing wings to fly with found suspension

Stereotactic stereotypes archetypes semi-circling soothing storm clouds
thunderbolts and enlightening darkness are my enema of anxious...

Authority figures, teachers and scholars
Tell me to think for myself;
Then grade my answers right and wrong
Based on an answer key kept on the shelf.

Write a poem that’s unique and original;
No structure - of your own free verse,
But before you put pen to paper,
Please listen to...

The Hollywood hills still echoes with his 
Rebellious yell, we are the forever young
Generation.
An iconic American symbol, to this the lost
Age of innocence.
Nay did this rebel die without a cause,
I think not, in my humble opinion, he
Died for his desire for speeds acceleration,
In death's ironic...

Cried out in pain, needed to heal,
Nothing from God did I feel. 
Demobbed from the army,
In a terrible state,
Dumped in civvy street,
Where I had no mates.
Heart as cold as bayonet steel,
Me, Love God?  Get real.
I hated my life, wanted it to end,
No one there...

They say hold on but i let go

They say stay behave

They try to put me under control but i break the leash
They want me to only take a few but I settle on a...

~ Was He a Rebel? ~


 Was he a rebel
    a son from hell
 He left his father's home
    for a destination unknown

 Took his childless bride
    and his nephew aside
 Said that his essence in...

Revolt! We must do all we can!
Empire rising! Stand strong!
Better fight if you want to stay free,
Emperor Palpatine must be stopped!
Let it be known here and now 
All must fight for freedom for all!
Leaving no creature behind, 
Leaving no planet unprotected!
I Leia, will lead this...

SHE was my wife, once ...

long ago, so very long ago ...
we met on the showboat, up-river,
almost fifty years back now ...
I was a young officer for the Confederacy,
working for the Yanks after The Turn,

supplying and distributing petrol
to the businesses on the river.
I had never...

They do not see
The rebel tucked deep inside me
Oh yes
A rebel
They may soon see
Conveniently hidden away
Behind a subtly charmed smile
A charismatic voice of an angel
And eyes as sweet
Yet fierce as the deep blue sea
They do not see
The rebel tucked deep inside me

But they will
In due...

They burned his books and his bones,
Throwing them deep in the river,Swift;
His bones,though food for fish
We have his testamentary gift-
A bible,to read in our native English.

The rebel who came to town
In search of inner peace 
She roams the American West
Specifically, the Texas Hill Country and South Plains
She keeps a journal of her adventures and fights
injustice where she finds it 
With a revolver and her dead father's sawed-off 
double-barreled shotgun!...
