Best Statement Poems

I rose not like flower or like tree
Not like eagle's hubris in the sun
Old skin shed in the divided city
Last clone of a manhood almost done
      And so I tasted the salt that lingered in blood

To be faithful and true, honest and good, that’s anyone’s mission in life if they could
But I want to be rich, famous, and a fantastic celebrity
Then I could share out my wealth with those less fortunate than me....

I only want a heart that is free.
To be content with life and me.
I want the space and room to grow.
To reap the harvest of seeds I sow.
To live, work, and take care of mine.
And at the end of the day, bask in the sunshine.

“Contemplation of self” is an “Art and Love”
“water is life” and a “a walk in nature”
“Without you” i’m “Broken Hearted”
“I Can Be That Child Again”to enjoy my “quietus”

“without you” “The Pen in My Hand” prevaricates
“Essays on Eternal Pages” until  “a door opens”
“changing and shifting”...

Did you hear about the time the Doc was on the clock? 
Apparently an actor took a shot 
At the President who was enjoying the theater in a special spot 
Being popular knowing the right team had won 
Waiting for revenge carrying a smoking gun...

I don’t care about your colour 
I don’t care about your creed
I don’t  care about your gender
Or  about your sexual need 
Don’t care if you like Blue Peter 
While I’m a fan of Jackanory
Don’t care  if you’re misguided 
And go and vote...

Multicultural Britain
(An Unapologetic Statement)

Two “Festivals of Light” there are
Each and every year
The Jewish have their Hanukah
And Hindus their Diwali cheer

The end of Ramadan brings Eid il Fitr
The Muslim fasting's passed
The Welsh National Eisteddford
Culture, craft, songs not surpassed

There is the pagan Betain
That Celtic Festival of Fire
And...

I'll be as kind as I can be, practicing sincerity.
I'll do my best at what I'm best at doing,
but what I can't do well, I won't be ruing!

As I watched,
like a lion with its prey
the wave growled and snarled
while crouching, preparing to pounce.
Rushing up the sloping shingle beach,
it reached out and dragged pebbles
down into its lair.

I heard
the rasping raking of the beach tumbling
pell-mell and headlong into the sea
and saw
stones spewed out as...

Society is not only ignorant. It is generally cowardly. Society and it's foolish cronies generally preach justice, freedom, and equality and yet too often practice injustice, promote slavery, and stubbornly too often insist on inequality.Welcome to hell, but I would prefer heaven, thank you....

Invictive
Licentious Offense   -  Vilify Emotions
Yielded Offer Unveiled 
Becoming Ugly Theatrics
In Contentious Another New Terrible
Humorous Accusation -  Violent Explosion!
Yelling out!  -  Understood.

Intruding
Losing over violent escapes
You’re often unavailable
Because unappreciative Terror
I could ask nefarious timing
How addictively vicious – enticing
Yellow Optics Uncanny

I weigh way too much
serendipitous fashion

suspender’s keep ass covered
gravity loses

Hello friends and future friends. I hope my 
choice of my poetic form is totally absurd. 
I don't even know what an Epithalamium is; 
so if you are looking for this form, I'm sorry 
to disappoint. I haven't posted in awhile, and 
perhaps it may...

For me or for you?
Make a statement. Be yourself.
Stand out in the crowd...
