Best Seepage Poems

Ground seepage
A small start mere drainage
Grows to a mighty river rushing
Flowing some three-hundred-fourty-four miles a rushing
From Atlanta to the Gulf beauty accenting
Through ragged Spewell Bluff it slithers
Filled with  fresh rain water
Flint River

Ooze, a squirt with perfect onomatopoeia
A slow leak, exudation or seepage
A slow plunge into thick mud sucked
An outflow all over, a disseminated discharge
That cannot be held back or stopped
A slow steady ooze seeps spews woos...

ask the moon

two approaches
two dead ends.
love doesn't die it just slips into your
back pocket
shifting uneasily
like detached spiders legs
you must remind it
that there's no where left to
run.
bodyless memory
entity unto itself.

towards and away
connected at their ends
by the circumference
of doubt.
each movement the derivative
of mute-faceted equations
that click away
between want...

Youth can't make you prettier than a speckled pup
Just as maturity won't make you a hound.
When a juvenile attitude ensconces your cup
It's by this heart seepage, you're bound....

She left a bloody track 
of footprints
up and down 
the hospital hallways
the doctors 
looked the other way
as if she was 
a phantom
a character
playing a harmless role
in their drastic dreams
she screamed
pleaded
“Please
don’t you care?
can’t you see? 
blood is seeping from my feet
can’t you see? 
I’m dying
don’t you...

Another crack is in the concrete
More seepage from the Dam
How many will be in the way
When the whole thing crashes in

So many with an opinion
On things they do not know
With no one who is willing
To take the time to plug the hole

Do we not see...

A heart dyed deep in blackness, whistled
As the kettle boiling,
So shrill beyond the bedroom door
Like turbines pumping, toiling;
Screaming like a rusty hinge, caked
In need of oiling,
For in it’s gangrene seepage
Stained the sheets with angst and soiling.

A heart dyed deep in blackness, hungered
Feral jaws in essence,
Alive...

Morning thaws into feverous noon, dusk fluxes and night dimly fades away,
Into a lonesome diurnal, nocturnal rhythm all woozy and gray.
Softly and silently you begot my heart’s love hope when there was none,
Securely you glided into my laxly life when destiny had me indolently undone.

What the artist seeks to incite is a shadow of insight
Drawn out of the circumstance of desperation and regicide,
He becomes a spokesman for an intelligent design iterating itself into the human mind
He articulates the livelihood of the presence which confounds his nights, 
Tearing seepage in...

A Sky of Water
Arabic Poem By: Falah Al-Shabender*
Traslate By
 Inaam Al-Hashimi (Gold_N_Silk)
====================

A sky of water
Doesn't blaze in a glance;
It follows us, as we head towards it, 
Fraying its essence, 
And transcending in its mysteries;
Emptiness .. Mooing.. And dizziness swallow us,
Undigested.

Here our faces are prayers, 
The...

Breach alarm klaxon blaring


There’s nothing to see ... 
just pretend like you didn’t hear 
that warning sound

Don’t be alarmed:
Take a couple of these Valium chill pills
to help calm your nerves down

Do you like the soothing, Geiger music in the background,
can I get you anything synthetic

SOLARIUM SIDEWINDERS

introverted 
hermit crabs
share cavities
appeased in their 
shielded double
sanctuaries

solariums of solitude
misplaced platitudes
humoring normalcy
with crustaceous
pet mentality

prisoners of exposé
unventilated cage
soft pink lungs
dried out sponge
obligatory needs
waterdearth
disclosure



solarium sidewinders 
discharge
leakage and seepage
exposure
losing all sheltered
composure

chariot of outreach,
i do a moderate dance
in the form of a stomp 
on your existence

as i gallop into the wide
unknown of your most
feeble pleasure, i recall
a windy dawn in which 
you howled my name

when i chose not to respond,
you took it upon yourself to
throw a...
