Best Smashing Poems

a smashing success -
diamonds and emeralds
in the jaws of thieves
left to sweep up shards of glass
eyes wet and red as rubies

I found Luke an old golf club
And several shiny golf balls
That will keep him quite for a while
While I make a few phone calls

Smash, went a window
In the greenhouse out the back
Smash, went another one
It sounds like we’re under attack

Smash, went the old fish tank
We...

How many days to raise this pumpkin
From the seed, in which I sowed 
I gave it water, and I fed it
As everyday I'd watch it grow
There were nights, I was frighten
That I'd lose it to the frost
In the past, it'd come early
And found it hard...

once a young pumpkin named bill

yearned for a bigger life thrill

though lacking in feet

he'd roll down a street

into the nearest car grille....

Situating within the mindfuls chamber
This searching of reasons incubator
Nothing is concrete to explain away an absolute
Truth: a maze in muse ?
Daunting perhaps if it meant much at all
Just killing time as waiting for tomorrow's flight
Been sitting at this terminal most of my life
Here how and...

We seem to be in cycle of bad luck,
And with the number of broken mirrors that I have noticed lately,
Not counting car mirrors, (I hope they don't count), 
Because if they do we will be in a seven year cycle of bad luck,
Til forever.
I wonder...

Down in the humid mosqitoe pits
Across the street we have guns for sale
Don't stay too still(especially in the evening)
The blood suckers will feast!

If you live through the west nile virus
You might get killed in a drive-by
Homies don't have no education
No working skills, homie can fly...

I guess in the old days, rules were made for 
a reason.
Now, attention getters gone amuck like
beings in a quiet room with a loud crashing 
season.

Especially when your once best friend,
Takes a hammer to God’s high ceiling
of moral class.
And their once, high written poetry is...

We were bloody.
Bearing the weight 
of a gaping moon like 
young Titans- 
full of arrogant imagination. 
We ran, hellbent.
House after house
playing tricks- 
casting spells with 
veracious foolishness. 
That first pumpkin was 
my stepfather. I watched 
as his carved out grimace 
became the nothingness 
I was...

As people cheer, the birthday girl
Swipes fingers at the cake.
A glob of frosting coats her hand
But this is no mistake.

For after all the singing
And the candles have been blown,
The birthday baby gets a cake  
To smash that's hers alone.

It's part of a tradition
When a...

It's dark, cold, and rainy
I can't see it, but the smell of death is outside
Not going to stop me..no sir
The driver is now in third gear 
Amy Winehouses' window is down, 
Her head and arms are out the window
Pumpkin, body and top, are in my...

Free, de genie
Philosophy
Rising Sun
Deserting Rain
Flying the fox.
Smash degenerate
Flying above me.
Trust him.
One, I say One.
No more of this suffering.
Tranctual System
I can't move
But I run....

I’ve entered a productive phase
with tasks at home, not turns of phrase.
There’s plenty jobs I’m getting done,
but writing sonnets isn’t one.
I have the skills, although they’re hard;
perhaps I need some leotards.
The bard wore those and so I might
at least look smashing in my tights....

( a college life vignette)

It’s Thursday morning, usually no one’s favorite, but this one seems sugary new, as if beamed in from a different, better universe. The clouds look fluffy and freshly washed.

Even the freshmen, who’re everywhere, multiplied, as if they’d been cloned overnight, seem...

O' Woman ! 
You are not some Damsel in Distress ,
And Surely no less than an Empress . 
Never Let Patriarchy Wither your Madness, 
Isn't it Minute for all the Life and Gladness ?
The time has come to awaken the Inner Goddess in You, 
For...
