Best Shacking Poems


Bridging the Gap
Bridge cards aren't for everyone
just those who have real need
Not meant for all those college "kids"
that party and smoke "weed"

Not meant for all those shacking up
with a "daddy" in the house
His room and board? It's on our dime
he's a government sponsored louse

Not meant for all...

A Grandmother's Legacy
Warming lights surround you
Quilting the sharp silence
Outside dawn begins
Earth starts stretching 
Straightening out the knots
Caught from hours of slumber
Night moves on to blacken another sky
And Calmness stills the room
All is as it should be

As you drift in an endless sleep
I know not if you'll wake
Or...

Dark Is the Night
With day full of sleep, moon falls in the river.
Its beams danced on water with shadows of trees
to a beat of rhythm from wind till it died 
and buried in music of quietness of night. 
With perfume of flowers giving weight to air
cool of dark...

Big, Blonde Beauties
Big, blonde beauties
so beautiful and so pretty,
such girls of high class
drinking from glasses,
filled with the best champagne;
and smoking their fine cigarettes,
while gossiping their fine stories
bragging and spoiling on themselves.

ha! ha!

Tell me again about your big, booty, blonde beauty
and how she has such class!

ha! ha!

Look at...

You Did Love Me
So I trickled out if
your life
As water through a
spring
Smoothing over the
points and rocks
alone
An adventure
I didn't give you
another thought
You were irrelevant
to me
I told myself this
religiously
Just someone I used
to know
Until now that is
Now I've done
everything I wanted
Traveled the world
Now your everything
I need
Standing in front of
me
Funny how life...

The Approach
Hearts racing.
Soul is shacking
Afraid of what lies beyond
Each day pasting
Drawing me closer to that day 
Slowly or even fast
Who knows how long this life will last.
The cold touch of death begins to approach 
Not knowing what to expect.
Is there a life after death?
Or is it...

Poetry Night
Icebreaker 
Stomach in a knott
Got the jitters
Got the runs
Anxiety on its high.

Made a choice to recite
Poetry of the night
Heart pounding
Knees shacking
Eyes bulging
Crowd waiting.

MOTHER
This decision isn't right
Crowd staring
Words choking
Got stage fright.

Having doubts
Looking scared
Holding onto the mic
MOTHER
I need to take a quick flight
Got to get out of...

Premium Member The Letter
He fought
Strong and hard
He did
Especially since
He got that letter
He fought
As if
There was no tomorrow
Worth living for
It changed him
It saddened him
He used to laugh
Like a Kookaburra
Even among
All the whistles
Of impending death
Over there
On the Dardanelles
He’d be the one
To cheer the boys up
With a quick Joke
And a smoke
As...

Jessica
You have left me:
Happy, spiritual, able to fly
Invincible, numb, light as a feather
Ready for the world, gracious, someone new
Generous, shaded, needed, loved
Rejuvinated, bathed, reborn, cherished
Wanted, held, comforted, warm,great...
 
You have left me:
Broke, ugly, smelly,mean
A criminal, hated, feared
Unwanted, miserable, homeless
Childless, lifeless, in the cold
With nothing, Scared,...

Tragedy of Love
Did you feel the trust?

Oh, effervescent lusting

Cracking your core

As the trysting truffles of love

Unfolded?

 

Cranking at your heart

That came into you, to start

And the piece that you felt

Was it always so irrational?

 

Misunderstood, by change of good

The nature of what you had

Fell apart.

So you dig...

Leaders
Opened my eye awoken by a thought
Palms all sweaty, hands all shacking the worlds definately changing.
Everywhere I turn is re-arranging
Everyone is ex-changing soon there will be no refraining. 
Father, there is too much complaining this world is aching
Everyone is taking while our children are breaking.
Vanity...

A'Buzz
A giant bee is buzzing
Just outside the window pane.
My silent wish that he would leave,
It seems, was made in vain.

He's circling around the roof
With not a hint of going;
His loyalty to that one spot
Shows not one sign of slowing.

I worry, though, about his friends
For bees...

Hell Terrors Pt 2
It is raining
 Is a hurricane blowing 
No speck of light is showing 
The fear is now growing 
Demonic voices overflowing 
it's the ghastly reaper hacking 
All the demons are snacking
 hoping to cause some flacking
 The reaper wants to start some shacking
 danger danger...danger..

Concpiracy Theorist
a conspiracy nut 
everything is a lie
shouted his gut

but the t.v.
says,it's true 
do you love 
me baby
or the half naked singer
looking at you

damn this brainwashing
box 
it's always on
even when you turn it off
the 20th century left
it's fox

one eyed pod 
one eyed god
shutters
wink report
and nod

couldn't get...
