Best Strategize Poems

He's been swingin' clubs since trouble began.

   The Great Leader proclaims he hath no plan!

      Hey man!  There is a crisis,

         With some bandits called Isis!

Her words are minced, like sweetened meat in pies.
She must believe that all of us are thick.
Be warned; she’ll try to fill you up on lies.

A pretty crust she makes to get a rise
from you! Her forked tongue gives that crust a prick.
Her words are...

Million Man March 
Men of all sides tear the land apart
Marching band drums Bark
Trumpets blare Sparks
 Sitting in the back like Rosa Parks
See what's in the front that's Dark
Watching the sharks
The only flag we pledge allegiance to is Unified
Freedom liberty will not be rationalized 
Anything...

I HEAR HER SCREAMING FROM A DISTANCE TRAPPED WOMEN
SLOWLY OVERLAPPED BY MANY DRIPS STAMPED WOMEN

DOWN SHE GO TRY NOT TO HARD TO STRUGGLE
YOUR LOSING BALANCE YOU BETTER NOT GET TO CRAMPED WOMEN

YOU NEED ALL YOU CAN KEEP DONT PANIC
PLEASE DONT JUST LET THE IMAGE BE...

When we were young, we'd freely roam
While supervision stayed at home.
We played the seasons' major sports
On vacant lots and playground courts.

No tryouts or permission slips.
No uniforms or coaching tips.
No judges, umpires, referees,
Or grownups whom we had to please.

Whoever came could join right in.
We'd choose the...

Surviving Ourselves
       by Odin Roark

Blame game trollops 
Cruise our insides
Willing to plant more guilt
Defying accountability
To take a stand

Conscience-bots
Perform recon
Patrolling vulnerabilities
Knowing no man’s land
Between heart and mind
Have always
Will always
Be pregnable passage

Yet

The front lines of the heart
Grasp one’s dug in fortification
Mind’s...

In Love With a Poetess
_____________________________________
I'm in love with a poetess/
Her words choke my feelings
Lifting me up to the ceilings
The thicker her words,
The faster my emotions move upward
She metaphorically strategize my heart
Turn my love into imagery like art
Exaggerations tearing me apart
_________________________________________
Totally disorder in my vain
Leaving me...

Until I had a nightmare and things got vile

It was you running from me on our wedding day

I yelled out baby please come back this way

For weeks that scene bothered me

Then my trust for you started living in poverty

I'll never forget that faceless man whose...

Some would have you believe a right to be free
To share an ideal of ethics and defend what you feel
To hold sacred a land that we stole from the American Indians
To be ready to kill and forge in blood as was the independence bill

To salute...

Introduction: once again I incorporate 
my trademark penchant 
to fabricate fictitiously
portions of the following poetic endeavor
can you care to 
discern fact from fiction?

Attempts at lifelong friendships and holy matrimony...

Shot thru with figuratively cankerous nub,
cuz yours truly did flub
even though as a scouting cub
how yours truly...

I am the best 
At being stressed
But not depressed
Powerful mind, no "S'' on my chest
I'm mysterious so my personality take a good guess
State your thesis
I'm not alive yet, a fetus
Hypothesize
Strategize
Form a conclusion
To my embodiment illusion
lol
It's scary
To meet a thug with a titanic vocabulary
I'm on a...

I was flattered by the letter
                      Mailed by this august sister
I was lured by those beautiful flowers

By:Sikolwethu Mthethwa 

In readiness for my journey to the land of dreams,
I bring my pillow closer to the full moon
And wrap myself around the blanket of stars that litter the night sky
While the Serene breeze airily sings me a lullaby

One deep breath to purge myself...

I made sure 

I've done alot 
Made mistakes 
Took on more 
Than I should take 
Cleaned my plate 
Washed it off 
Rinsed it 
Put it away 
Took it back down 
This go round
Started to smile 
Instead of frown 

I made sure
That 
I didn't back track...
