Best Scoffer Poems

There's a whirlwind inside 
Of my head
I'm like bread 
Without butter 
But instead, 
I am like no other
There's a monsoon inside
Of my wandering mindset
I'm like a young child 
That gets extremely upset
I'm far from mild…
I'm in the wild…
On my own
Not all alone

I don't really tell...

I feel the sting of my downfall
I’m succumbing to the gravity of my heart
I’m breaking by the seams…as I stand tall
In bravery, in victory, I will fight on from the start
Come on, love of mine…
Today is fading away into tomorrow
You’re looking rather fine
In your shady,...

He came and dwelt among men 
And shared a vision of heav'n;
To Him some opened their doors,
But more denied their favors.

With sinners He sat and supped;
Thus, others called Him corrupt.
But they did not understand:
He changed their hearts with His hand.

He walked and taught in byways
And...

The words I give you are sound
They have been my comfort
They have been my companion
This is Protocol never be anxious 
Be Slow to speak and quick to listen
And when in doubt, wait and think about it
Always respond and never react to a crisis
Never panic always...

{intro} Suppose I will guess what you think about me
Do you think of me highly or lowly? Please be honest to the clearest degree
You’re mine and I’m yours…
You…you…you…with me…you’re red and I’m blue…
With me, myself and I – an American flag, standing alone
Don’tchoo have a...

At home, I have witness them all,
 Witness the process of germinating
 From precious seed sown amongst thorn and tares,
 To taken root, even when there’s no chance
 There is unverified full hatred,
 Wild spurious jealousy from unlikely,
 To nothing he would amount, voices their...

Galaxies of glory
Strikes me vigorously
Stars do shine
Like turning wine
You are mine like guitar strings
You're my serpentine swine (holding unto someone that's stubborn)
I am like a butterfly without wings
Darkness will not veil His illumination 
Galaxies of glory is our passionate destination 

Illusions of delusional delight
Is seen...

Hear my poem announce, then refine and restate
its life lesson suggestion Surrender YOUR Fear!
Yes, Surrender Your FEAR, watch stick rafters release
(note: I’m ‘Missing, Roof’ too, and I still love my life)
see life’s cobbled roofs fly, the frail cobwebs we weave
(was the world kept at bay;...

So then Death what will you offer?
Life what profit give to me?
Profit? soul! you selfish scoffer
Riches share you here to be?

Glass of eye, seek your answer
by the breath I give and share
grip your wisdom pose and dance her
questions me with sound of air?

Death engage this...

The stone that was rejected
now hovers overhead. 
The sword of retribution
still dangles by a thread.
The careless laugh and squander,
the hungry starve away.
Men mock the storm and thunder,
deny the coming day.
They bomb, exploit and plunder –
of necessity they say.
And Rachel still is weeping
for the babes slain...

On the electric line
Sat the crows in a row
Some noisy
Some feeling low
Some one self pecked
Some flew away
As the sun set
They settled for the day.
 
One crow of the lot
Flew away from the rest
Sat on the line 
Opposite to the first
No sooner had his foot
Touched the...

Normality

ills of academic hordes...
  sought to lampoon the rest 
 into robotic construct 

notable exploits ~wings of creativity~ 
 via abnormality
certainty of hordes' unquizz 
  fore they conceal 

wee might in twilight’s hour 
 meager lab’s florescent 
shine dimly against darkness peep

DO NOT BLAME THE MONARCHY

Do not blame the Monarchy
For wounds from biting teeth that you dug up on your own
For the death of your children who were eaten by the wolf you domesticated
For your midget qualities and strengths
Your incompetence and your impotence
If you remember the...
