Best Shackled Poems

I dread the nights -
long hours alone
pass slowly.
I wrestle sleep
in fear of dreams
darker than my loss.
I forget the day, the month,
even the year you left
without  warning,
but oh how in the darkness
I remember too well
the moment -
down to the second -
of my silent screams, 
Twisted...

O Memory I beg you set me free;
remove these binding shackles from my heart.
My recollections won’t you let me be;
allow my life to have a brand new start.

‘Twas just a year ago my love walked out
in search of greener pastures for to lie;
to find herself...

Save the drama for your momma
Shackled
We look deeper then ever before
Lest I implore
Darkened caverns all around
Fountains with water to quench
Through the lens of a man
When to understand
The lapse in memory to uphold
Crazy dragons in the fire
The fuel for the mire
Cries with the faint in heart
Viscous...

The old ruin sat near the brow of the hill
it had been there for centuries forgotten
none now knew for what purpose it had been used
not even the elders who had many suggestions

A not unattractive looking building of stone
and that in it's self only added to...

Finally, I’ve escaped the chaos of life,

I’ve been anxiously waiting for this day to arrive. 

Then you returned and disturbed my tranquil tune.

You are bringing chaos where I once silenced the moon.

Your shadow grew darker I’m trapped in your prison

Again I'm detained in the cyclical...

Growing up has been a shame…..
Growing up never gave her wings……
Her ideas never got that flight……
‘cause they held her so tight…….
‘Who she was ???
They never wanted to understand…
‘Who she wanted to be’???
was none of their concern…..
They have given birth to her
So she was  their...

He stands out in a horde
shackled by deep hate, 
wizened, yet venom in full store
elicits a man’s devilish state.
 
His mordacious act make’s heart chill
when  trifle things that least matter
provoke's him to discharge a cartridge to nil 
a Life that loiter's in a pub gets the batter.

Born without a Phallus

Arigbe,
the first and last child of his parents
named after the famous Arigbe leaf
a wild magical spice
only used by women who need to spice up their love lives
his father’s love for his mother lacked spice at the time he was born
so she named...

How silent lies a lone ghost ship
that lists, tethered to its mooring 
having run aground inside a
dying dream, now distant.

Blue
Divine 
Shine
Madonna and Child
Suffocate the Papal decreed 
Sowed the seeds 
Indoctrinated godly status
Art distorted the power courted 
For Church convention 
Hidden shackled 
Never to tackle...

Backing my hips against white painted bricks
While stupid ass men dance with stupid ass chicks
They act like Adonis, which isn’t that honest
They’re trying their best ‘pulling’ tricks

I came in with Les who hopes to impress
A ‘prospect’ who’s scantily dressed
Get out there my son, he said,...

Shackled in chains,

And an orange jumpsuit He came,

Shuffling into court.


His name was called,

and he stood to face his shame,

All eyes upon him.


Held in his hand,

A crumpled sheet of paper.

He opened to read.


He poured forth,

his failures and pains,

with alcohol.


The judge said.

"Sounds like a Jekyl and Hyde...

GOD DEEDS

Setbacks like a trap
I am shackled for another lap

As I cried under the shadow
A river of tears on my face flow
I become weak and then slow

Nobody showed up in my folk
Then they  laughed at me when I become a dork

And then God sent...
