Best Sufficiently Poems


Premium Member Imposter Syndrome
We see ourselves unimpeded initially 

Some are stricken with a view artificially 

We are told by others very specifically

There is a ceiling so proceed timidly

We try in vain with no support futilely

As we age blazing the path dizzily 

Sometimes we see the results dismally

Eventually we...

Premium Member Oh, But Your Hand
There

Your hand
That exquisite, sexy little hand
I reach, oh so slowly
My index finger extended lazily

But with enigmatic intent and subtle grace
(Like Michelangelo's Adam on the Sistine Chapel ceiling ...
Desperate for the touch of God)
I softly touch your thumb, and there is an electric shiver

Not static or...

Premium Member Old Pet
I remember a riding pony I had as a lad which was born blind. A filly she was born during an 
Arkansas blizzard and we did not know that she was blind at first for we kept our horses in our 
barn for several days...

Premium Member My Journey
The drivers of my journey bring me to here,                
   somewhere between yesterday and tomorrow,
alive, leaving a trail of blame, pain, shame,      ...

Premium Member Don'T Look Back - Edited and Reposted
Fingers linger
Thoughts flying everywhere and
Stumble
Crumble
What was I thinking, where does this 
word come from
How is it written
How come that in my head thousands of lines tumble
And not a word leaves my fingers

My thoughts fumble
What was I thinking, I cannot do this
They said I could never...

Just believe you will still be here
 When I will be here too.

Premium Member What Is To Become of Me
What is to become of me?
I feel the warmth of your pulse
As my blood turns cold and I 
Slip the bonds of this Earthly life
Where both pride and ridicule
Followed me home like a lost 
Puppy. I have never been 
Rewarded for the good works 
I...

Premium Member Child's Play
I have a toddler who loves to play
Pretend – imaginary friend, make-believe
She pierces my heart with her adventures
Into the fantasy land of dinosaurs,
Dungeons and dragons, long lost voyages
With pirates and princes – feeling
Invincible, indestructible, unshakable
Like she has the tiger by the tail
And is sure to...

Premium Member Divine Life Journey
“Life --- commenced by God’s love, with soul quickened through His grace, spirit revived in His strength, faith buttressed upon His truth --- abides forever worshipful.” Poet (Beata B. Agustin)

Guilty, devoid of own righteousness in God’s sight
Condemned to hell’s wrath, my soul was transgression-slain
Yet, the...

Premium Member My Amphetamine
Enantiomers do not make my amphetamine.
No cognitive enhancers do I need.
Don’t bother giving me that crazy Benzedrine.
Imagination was my mind’s first seed.

I need no extra sleep; I’m sufficiently awake.
I”m not depressed; no euphoriant for me!
My needs are met; I sure want nothing fake.
I get high...

Premium Member Day Wondrously Commenced
The day my life commenced … wondrously great
Propels each endeavour as good success
Surely designed and authored by the Lord
Who grants grace, sufficiently abundant
Toward grand fulfillment, never worthless.

First among those days is my blissful birth
As parents’ love-fruit who bloomed in their care
Following such are triumphant moments
Marked...

Premium Member Hard Truth, Soft Shell
PS Resident Revenant ...

  "I shall embrace it," he sighed, transmuting  -

Blood, no stain, he thought,

  Not even frost on the pane ...

        Missed ... he'd not ever be.

Similes and Metaphors of Love
LOVE is like a figure of speech
It adds beauty to life
It inspires us to beat strife
It gives colors to sight
It expresses feelings tight.

LOVE is a rainbow 
It has its perfect timing
To beautify your surrounding 
It appears unexpectedly
Yet disappears  inevitably. 

LOVE is like a dictionary
It...

Premium Member Positive Political Problems
My fundraising problem with positive psychology,
said the good health doctor,
it is too social science squishy,
not leftbrain dominant enough,

Suspiciously ecofeminist
for natural science pathologists
Straight-White privileged proctologists
urologists
bicamerally challenged cardiologists.

I must concede
not ecopolitically erect enough
correct indeed
said the nervous 
trauma systems empathist,

But, sometimes premature win/win 
complex opportunity theory
looks like yet...
