Best Simmer Down Poems

Sub-titled: What’s in YOUR Fridge?

Please allow me to introduce myself:
My name is Ms. Fridge A. Daire
I stand tall among my lesser cohorts
and MOST of them really look up to me

However, I have two problems:
First, I’m FED UP with my owner
He's always opening my door
reaching deep...

Ten is the number to begin
Early in the garden
Gathering herbs, foxglove and more
On her face casual grin

Nine are the ingredients here
Placed in beef stew to simmer
It will be tender, succulent
For his eye will grow dimmer

Eight minutes sear the stew beef 
Add some herbs like lemon...

Wart of hubris, sweat of cursed
Jealous eyes and greed at worst

Blood from pride, tears from pain
Some wretched feelings from disdain.

Sordid juices caused by lust 
One liberal dusting of distrust.

A pinch of squander on path to diet
Then splash of anger from disquiet

Two parts grease; on one’s...

They say I write magic 
like I was granted a wish from the genie in Aladdin
An stole Kazaam boom box an secret patent Latin verses from canibus
While using cannibus as incense listening to BOB Marley (jamming)

getting a (positive vibration) to (satisfy my soul)cause the (SON...

A day in my life

She coming out of the bus she has forgotten the umbrella walks 
slowly and her face is more African now that she is old,
she uses it as a walking stick, which she says for the aged, I think 
my love for...

This is not a battle for gold
Nor it is a battle for the belly of any might.
This is a crusade to restore a hope, a pasture, a future for our scion. 
Farther east in the matebele, beyond the ribbon of mountains
The sorcerers' eye sees a...

Nationalism,
nation supremacy,
rooted in competing patriarchal capital rivalries,
is entirely incompatible with EarthPatriotism
rooted in loyalty to cooperatively healthy matriotism

Wherever MotherEarth may yet be healthy climate rediscovered
in sensory input and outputs of a child
unbound breathing in enculturing good humor

Still fully awake
meaning much more than not yet dead,

Embracing Earth's...

Shake; shake do the shake n' 
bake, got me another round of 
hot sauce love bang; Bang!!!!
Quick to jump the bamboo 
stick, given it a whirl of double 
pleasure gets you off by 
any doubts that I can blow your 
mind.
Which now is fully bloomed...

why do i sit here
all scared and stuff 
if you asked
me why?  i'd say
i don't know

is this the quiet
before the storm?
if it is, lets get on
with it because 
i don't like it.

i should not be
scared of anything
after what i have
gone thru these 
half-passed of...

I think it's time for me to go now but I'm without a place to go
and I'm too stubborn to move
I think it's time for me to simmer down; I would agree because I can
hardly feel the blood flow in my right hand
This is still...

I found out that God's mercy is bigger than our own
I figured out that God's spirit makes us feel not alone
But, I'm pretty regretful for the abominable sins that I've done
Sometimes, I wish that all my sins and faults would be gone

Really fatigued
Not very intrigued
The...

Folks, 
Look to what's right and just, not man-made rules, 
Keep wary of constituents who cater to fools, 
Count not on so-called friends, count on your next breath, 
Breathing ominous volumes of understanding curbs the tides 
of mental death, 
Accompany reason and not just the...

It was dark. So dark you could barely see,
And I was there, under the sky, and I was so free.
It was a moonless night,
And the wind blew with fierce might.
The flickering diamonds illuminated the sky,
I wondered how far they are, and so high.
With my heart...

You think that you can cage this phoenix and expect my flames to simmer down, 
In hopes that the heat that is extracted from my aura is diminished.
But you are misinformed and mistaken.
Thinking that you can assume my kindness is weak, along with my ability...
