Best Resents Poems

How magical it is to feel such a sad emotion
I need ingredients to concoct a happiness potion
Yesterday was not promised
So today I refuse to think about tomorrow
You want something from me?
Borrow my sorrow
It's like the moon blocks the sun
Eclipsed by the cold
Like frozen water we...

...And of course who can forget all the
black-on-black we see every day?
More people are killed by such violence
then cops could ever dare take away.
Take all the dead from the rioting
and, depressingly, you will all find
it matches a weekend’s murder count
in Chicago..let that sit in your...

THE HAUNTED HOUSE

The dark shadows flicker, hapless waves crash —
against the abyss a lover’s hopes dash.

Latter years, melancholic, dressed in black,
arrival of the vampire’s curse - I’m back.

A Victorian castle with misdeeds.
I sweep the grounds. Small feet kick away weeds.

An imposing door knocker — my...

my black ink flows into oceans of fear-
for I have been misunderstood by her,			
as days of time run out of grains of soft sand
and shadows pierce shores of midnight mist
(I panic with tears thinking the worst of me).

maternal intuition has brought woe,
the worst of me...

When in her best behavior:

    she smiles so sweetly
    and she loves so freely;

    she speaks so softly
    and she adores so dearly.

But if you are not on your guard:

I can't make you understand how I feel,
And I've spent a lifetime trying to explain it.
Chances are YOU'LL never experience it,
As you are in the latest years of your life ...
There's no way to induce these damn things,
And I wouldn't DO that to you if...

Angel has fallen from the top of the tree
Broken baubles lay strewn by the door
Christmas chaos caused by the cat
Damaged branches and lights on the floor!
Eager hands clear up the mess
For today we should rejoice
Glorious news that baby Jesus was born In Bethlehem
His birth is...

I guess this had to be said
The root causes for the way
I am kept awake at night 
Summer heat no sleep
My only companions are
Past events and the opinions
My soul resents. 

I guess it had to be felt
Every reflection and failure
To society, my appearance must
Be on...

Yes I see you man of the world:
Flashy on cue in myriad twirls.


Yes I know when to step aside:
Succinct you send your swirl of pride.


Yes I know now that tragic touch:
Watch time somehow scoop away much.


Yes I know why all magic fades:
The weary sighs that...

Where Hell flirts with heaven,
Where Death envy’s life,
There I sour through the
sound silence of the night.

Where darkness resents light.
Where sin is beaten down by grace
It must be a daunting sight,
to be confronted by my face

Where demons battle angels.
Where good turns to evil.
flinch fingers rubbed the...

STEP -CHILD


Small boat,
Step-child of the sea,
Feels its way cautiously,
Knows its role:
Is merely tolerated.
Uwanted offspring
Feels the roll of the waves;
Unwelcome intruder
Momentarily gathers her strength
In a rare flat calm,
To withstand the buffets:
Splash of salt shaken
Into the eyes of the bow,
Shudders at comber-crash into side,
Wave-driver wind chops the...

Isabelle Falque-Pierrotin
will never balk at an a priori win
has established new rules
resents being told they are for the obedience of fools.

can we be sure of the danger he's in?
his wife the Princess
ensonced in a typical Spanish taxation mess.

Mississipi roast
should be apportioned on neat squares...

voices skating secrets across the rim of a wine glass,
breath advocating a glance. Plucking nerves like a guitar string
wind revealing the liars tongue,
never failing to encapsulate  
the quiet tuck,  serenades of existence

pouring solitude down a rusty rainspout
to particular seasons that shadow 
a present...

************LONGING for LOVE************
I've heard those words it's deafening the agony where my heart resents
    to leave you 
Your thought so deep  I seek and yet by loving you without regret
    I care for you
I dreamed of you the...

Someone that I know has a serious affliction,
Not chemically induced though, is their addiction.
He is always needing another dose or fix
In one way or another or in ways, a mix.

Though I don't know why, how he became addicted,
He clearly shows to me he's definitely afflicted.
He...
