Best Spearing Poems


Ripping Christ
Holier than thou,
sacred as a cow
  anointed with margarine spread;
a Sunday to rest,
some socks and a vest
  and a penchant for laying in bed.
Sicker than sick
and thicker than thick,
  drugged with a heroin chic,
bright light beams down
through a crack in the crown,

Premium Member So Many Personalities
So many voices, some pulling, others pushing, one spearing.
I feel the spear, and know she will not stop until I acknowledge her
What is it? 
What do you want?
She gives me some directives knowing I will rebel 
and rebuke them.
She never gets her way.
She wants me...

Premium Member Grit and Guts On the Gridiron - 1
Mud and leather
dirt and nerve
bloodied laughter
collision to serve,
distance, drive and demolition
battle axe ambition in the wild air
muscle and mind joined in steeled instinct, 
a stitched pigskin ball, the grail of the Fall
to fumble it means spleen infamy
while intercepting it invokes Victory's voice,
in the huddle a...

Speeding Rocket
SPEEDING ROCKET

Standing huge and massive on the launch pad, so many tons of power
wait to be primed, one way ticket to the stars, waiting to be launched.
It will circle the planet and then land safely, but it wants to go so much further.
This will be...

Premium Member Another New Year
Another New Year
By
Kevin L Fairbrother

2014 done and dusted
I’ve welcomed in 2015
With a beer and a crayfish
Round a campfire with some friends
…
New resolutions, not for me old mate
Cause I won’t keep what I promised
So I’ll just open up the gate… and
Let fate decide what’s in store...

Premium Member Spring Rain
"Spring Rain" she was named by her father Chief Many Horses.
Through her veins the hot blood of the majestic Comanche courses!
The young maiden crushed the hearts of many dashing braves,
But to be free to chase the vagabond winds is all she ever craves!

Her father willed...

Premium Member Purposes Incomprehensible and Wonderful As These Purposes
Imperfect world, purposeless person.
I retired to pursue perfection
learn jazz tunes, woody and herbaceous plants,
read every inch of English literature,

Scientific American and Foreign Affairs,
have an affair with an American.
Oh, and by the way, before you ask, I'm from Mars.
Orbiting your planet, admiring the girls.

Paraphrasing prayers by...

Premium Member Big Foot and I
I strolled appease through the tall underbrush 
admiring the tall lush green trees and 
the tranquil mingling sounds of the seen and unseen creatures

I glance up into the heavens and admire 
the tall green spearing pines as it rebinds 
into a canvas painted ocean of...

Budgeri
Budgeri
The good budgery fella with a bottle of rum,
Pretty good bird is the budgery-gar one,
Arthur eyeshades came a walking by,
One eye one ear one rissole,
Looking for the budgery fella, why?
A little nip was good as gold,
Where are you budgery fella,

Ole Yarraman the horse he was,
And...

Brutus Iulius Trois Page 07
Brutust Iulius Trois Page 07
Brutus called his captains into conference
we are done with creeping along the shorelines 
prepare now to sail out across the Aegean
the winds are with us and Troy awaits! 
Imogen seeing Hesione, ceased weeping
Hesione, were you happy with your lot?
was Telamon a...

I Begin To Fly
I step up 
the open door awaits
sights appear in front 
canvassed blue is what I see..

Into it .. I jump..

and drop 
spearing
spiraling 
careering
head first 
into the unknown
trekking down 
at blistering speeds

Where I wake up..

and spread my arms, 
birthing wings
with sturdy legs 

as my quest begins

and...

The Crying River
Touch the rising mist of cherry smiles
Herald cries of joyous miracles aflight,
Echo brisk allure of God’s spearing light
Cry in the bosom of Abraham’s seed
Refrain the ways of fame and greed;
Yield to peace though hate overrules
Intimidate the wicked with warm arms
Negate adversarial luck and vain charm,
Glorify...

Florida Nature
The symphony begins before daylight.
Night herons blink tired eyes at music’s quake.
Some tiny fish splash in the silent night.
With spearing beak her breakfast she does take.
Beneath the mangrove roots she saw that sight.
The gift of life the living must partake.
A hunter comes with camouflage and...

The Hollow I Dig
Yellowed moonbeams flooded slantingly through the forest, 
Crisscrossingly spearing and slicing the night,
Whilst throwing the foliage alight, 
As I work to finish my task, brimming with fright.

Though familiar with the sight I behold 
The moon ray-lit woods looked fresh and anew,
Whilst continuing to do as...

My Okra.S Kin
Hi biscuit, you’re mighty and cute
So acute in hearing that I’m spearing fruit
Perhaps you didn’t know, I’ve lived in the South…too.
Entertained a name in the halls of high school
I thought it was cool, even back then
We were Rebels

Trivial this trivia of mine
Confuses many versed in...
