Best Rope Poems

Let go of the rope my tethered friend
Your holding on to a futile end.

For if you fall what’s the consequence?
But if never tried life won’t make sense.

And if you try and don’t succeed 
You just may find its all you need.

See God is in the...

Under cold lights, dark air and the still, 
All is quiet, nothing spoken no sound, 
Hangs the softest of rope from the hardest of beams, 
Hanging in a straight sort of proud,

Reaching right down to the black and white rose, 
The rose standing ready for...

A shining light where no one can see,
A breath of fresh air where no one can breathe,

A glimmer of hope in a place filled with doubt,
A belief you can cope until you get out,

A whisper of sanity when you're beginning to sway, 
A touch of...

Empty and sad and twisted
Smiling and nice, patient
Hanging on a rope
I'm he and she, and condemned
And I'm locked, again the gap's deepened

Fake desires
Carved in plastic
So sick of it
Dig it into my skin
Wanna bleed my smiles off

Embrace me, backstab me
Until I can breathe no more
Under the...

I pictured her up there on the Moon
Sitting forlornly in my lonely lagoon
   She was draped in a cloak of alabaster  
   Glistening in starlight ne'er to outlast her

Dancing midst an asteroid shower
Her silhouette did sparkle and tower

     He never runs out of patience
        gives us as much rope as we need

     We can use it to climb our way up to Him

follow /us/
follow /us/ 
lose your mind
leave your head   /behind/
get in line 
grab a hand
we're making it
you're making it   /now/
Rope of the dead 
Rope of sand

swallow  /this/
swallow  /this/
selling you soap
demanding demand
hope no hope
take no stand

Stuck in this place 
Full of empty space
Where the deafening silence 
Awaits a verbal embrace

Just one utterance of hope
To be given the strength to cope
And I will unwind the noose 
From the end of my rope

Just one ray of light
To regain my sight
To be able...

Nature holds the rope

I remember that Thursday
Crystallized in my mind
Like all the intense moments of my life
At the doctor’s with my wife

She had a heart
Why did she depart?
Why was this the end and not the start?
This was Nature over Art

We had a hope
We thought we...

 For those who go by his tentmaker’s rope

			swing from one end to the other
		though neither low nor too high
						nothing will pass you by
if you swing not to the end of your tether

Let the tavern-keeper yell
						 no legs past his dream threshold
					will wander before old...

Sebastian hangs at the end of a rope,
crows pecking hungrily at his blue eyes!
For her tomorrow, is now filled with hope

When he had reached deep between her thighs.
In the dark she imagined just one thing,
crows pecking hungrily at his blue eyes!

The sight of his blue...

Just so was the timing

Up she went and when

More steps became

Possible she moved out, and then

Returned in a flash

Open to the tempo

Pleased as her feet did fly

Easy doubledutch....

The Rope

"You must be tired by now, 
go home and undo your hopes.."

the cracked pen and conscience, spill 
dark clouds into the background 
of the mind, pathetic fallacy...

The Rope: Pathos, 

covers the skin in ink 
until the illness overlaps the man,
until emotions overlap reason,
until he...

Pecos Bill rode herd in the vast forlorn.
His quiet Paint gobbled buttered popcorn.
A tornado, in a fit, 
Came for a whirlwind visit. 
“Paint, meet Curley. His back I will adorn.”

Bill grabbed his rope and threw a loop with hope
And saddled the whirlwind so Paint could...

NARRATOR
Infatuation, mysterious, 
Must possess
A hello will be good, an offer
Of a drink,
And here comes the invite, 
Does it lead to a casual, or
Lengthy good night

HIM
My furniture's  sparse
I have a desk and books,
I hung clean tea towels on
The kitchen hooks.
I have a chair and a...
