Best Scales Poems
Rainbow Scales Beckon MeGoing inward
Receiving moments of grace
While time unfolds
Touching your heart with my breath
An expansion
Doorways to enter
Each gift revealed through my willingness
Vulnerability my partner
Coaxing me towards unimagined pleasure and pain
Letting my mind expand
Memories of days
Exploring and discovering
Baiting my first hook
My Father’s deep voice guiding me
Watching his...

Conquering the Blind Scales of PatriarchyCONQUERING THE BLIND SCALES OF PATRIARCHY
Crystal cold are the pupils of some men
staring red to jailed porcelain dolls skin
dowered for the title of chastity,
your curves, your swell, they treated like machines.
You can be the light midst darkness, woman
yet why they see your body as gold...

Tilting ScalesSoros with his little pet crusty the clown caught red nosed
our country needs a king with a backbone to defend certain rights
not this weak minded fool who shakes hands with the devil himself
on earth a liberal puppet who agrees with killing children...

Balance Tips the ScalesIt twas dark, a hen's night
stillness abandoned the fright
knocks echoed freely
and here her presence was felt
Chimera fragments an innate realm
unbeknownst reasons dare overwhelm
A shoulder-companion gone lain
unearthed my being hath slain
seams seared and baked
rivers red hot, unadultered...

ScalesI wish that I could see the scales
that measure each centuries worth
and determine just what it takes
to cause their rise and fall.
Is it wasted lives versus those fulfilled?
Is is senseless bloodshed opposed to those that survived?
Is it the level of justice that prevailed in a...

Talking ScalesFin, a comical inventor of renown,
Latest invention had caused such a frown,
His talking chemist scale
Made many people turn pale,
Just after putting their coin down.
"Don't park your semi-trailer here,"
"Is someone helping carry your rear?"
"Lay off the donuts,"
"Am I weighing two guts?"
The chemist made the machine disappear....

The Bathroom ScalesThe Bathroom Scales
By Elton Camp
There they are, just daring us to step on
And see which way our weight has gone
The bathroom mirror shows the sad fact
But the authority of a read-out it does lack
And while in there we are entirely out of luck
Ten pounds for...

Tilted ScalesBlessed are curses as a path
to the riches in aftermath
before the bell tones at last
denying more while giving less
embraced by fools counting sins
there aren’t enough to contend
when the darkness felt within
consumes fair judgment for all men
the only saints that remain
are disguised in full regret
for the...

Scales Tip DownWeight is held in the balance found wanting
Heresy thought unorthodox behaviour
drops the pearls under a great price
A river of lies flows one after another devaluing family values
Filled with the impurities of sin under an idiotic phase
Resilient is the word
Where...
