Best Simplifies Poems

[Now ShallowMan is quite content
receiving FactoidMan’s consent
to quibble and express dissent
as long as keeping covenant
with fingers crossed and belfry bent
when viewing Facts in sealed cement:]

“The Facts you give me circumvent
those ‘truths’ your chuckles supplement;
although they might disorient
they can’t be wrong, I won’t dissent,
just using ones...

Waking, she inspects the color under her sweater
and sighs that vague orange is still wearing her.
Orange can’t be her friend until it reveals its core.
While white is already a friend, the floating ones
aloofly speak of odd concerns she cannot pattern.
At times, float-whites hear, but never...

Unquotable quotes: The How of Democratic Kill - IXL, Part Two

No, tell me not my vote now does not count

No, tell me not my vote now does not count
For with my vote you do what...

Everyone is an immigrant 
We all are human 
I guess we belong 
On this planet 
Called earth 

We all are human 
Born by a woman 
As she pure her
flesh blood on 
Each of our heads 
So we are here 
Not as an alien 
But citizens...

Chemical reaction 
another death For the Fraction

It's all for one thing
and something something something

The space they need to be
is given through energy

It's natural and complex
learning only simplifies next

You can't make infinity shorter
and you can't do anything forever

The space you need to be
is given through energy

Final...

On the poll snowy owl stands tall and is in full control
Her prismatic eyes are beyond beautiful something to extol
Yet they don’t do justice to her soul
She glides through the air silently soaring off the poll

As she sails through the air mimicking snow 
Sometimes flying...

We might expect LeftBrain deduced beliefs and monoculturing values
to develop a discontinuously co-arising energy and information base,
becoming  dualistically dysfunctional,
degenerative
of Earth's limiting fossil-fuel declining energy,
and yet with more reclining information supporting slow-growth
of recycling resources
such as political Earth-centric outcome campaigns
and multicultural ecotherapeutic health policy development.

Nondual co-arising...

The Royals had a baby boy
And Britain’s brimming o’er with joy.
They’ve waited for this festive date
To celebrate with Will and Kate.

This newborn babe is said to be,
Succession-wise, at number three;
And if this lad had been a lass,
Poor Harry she would still surpass.

For there are rules...

The comic book in front page cover.
Glossy for it's wonder.
All interest in it's characters
of glory and their thunder.

A comic book to split apart
in seam for pair of staples.
The paper's pulp been harvested
from several standing Maples.

An ink in print to bolded text
you'd sniff for fresher air.
The...

My toaster has two settings
 inferno and brilliant white,
the smoke alarm, because it's bored
goes off sometimes at night.
The smart TV which simplifies
recording for us loons
starts playing back ten minutes in
and finishes too soon.
The microwave 'defrost' setting
has never been much fun
so I take the chicken breast...

There is a disconnect
between me, myself and I
or should that be among?
The editor in me is always
there ready to correct
me and gets really irate if
I blurt out “Donald and myself”
instead of “Donald and I”
when we are subject
rather than object, although
there are times when I definitely
feel...

“Each new day is ‘Day One’ for the rest of your life!”
When you say it like that, does your future seem dire?
Just how bad was it really (the fight with your wife)?
Tempers burn through the night! Is tomorrow on fire?

‘Day One’ sounds so hopeful, it...

As this river gives
Not giving a damn
Emptying the lake of hate
This ecosystem dies
But was it ever alive?
Surviving in my illusions
Confusions of my soul 
The depth of this sinkhole 
Without any reflections
Nothing to mention
Only the hollowing cries
Self-loathing and the denies
Saturated tears 
Muddled in fears 
Storming, destroying
Agonize....

Life so complicated, so vindicated
Life never so simple in the dimple
Smiling, pining, piling up pressure in indicated
Moments and torments in a pesky pimple

Germinating on a face hitherto serene
Driven bonkers when complication that conquers
Spaces and territories in a tropical rain with a plethora of unseen pain
When...
