Best Supplicates Poems

Once again
“Man”
Fails

A faulty miscarriage of stanzas and exhaled anomalies,
“Man” withers
Unto a Shakespearean passing

“Man” testifies
Verbal precedence above cedar scented opinions
While providing expired empathy to their disfigured reflection

Oh, how their insolent pride glimmers
Similar to Cubic Zirconium weddings

Oh, how their “manhood” 
Falsely supplicates
For even “thicker” pride

Another daftly implored...

Achab*, Translation of Pierre Emmanuel’s Achab by T. Wignesan

One man alone stands erect before the king, and speaks
A man
Alone

The king is not accustomed to being confronted face to 
        face
He reigns over heads bent.
He prohibits their looking at...

"The Hearkening"



In the woods 
a clearing
bare of all leaves
and trees, with exception one

The ground is 
borderless, 
yet hallowed
dirt and sharp rocks

They call this place,
The Place of the Skull
The woods
disappear in thick mist

A tree stands tall
branches outstretched
devoid of all leaves
Not Dogwood, a tall barren pine
maybe cedar,...

She is covered from head to toe
in submission to her lord
she covers her beauty from lustful eyes
while she drifts away from sin.
you can hardly see her skin
or her teeth when she forces a grin.

The fear of Allah shields her thought
the sunnah of the prophet is...

(Soliloquoy : An act of speaking one's thoughts aloud when by oneself or regardless of any hearers, especially by a character in a play.)


Mark a book, book a mark.

Not every household has the same pattern of backbiting. Not every mother in law mentors the daughter...

Melancholic solstice of the soul 
tears along the broken line equator 
of a heart. A chasm ripped to separate 
and isolate the weathervane 
blown madly out of orbit.

And would the angels stoop to shift the sun 
that substance and coherence might evolve 
the order. Defining...

My heart in motion 
palpitates a wild tarantella, 
resonates vibrant valves 
and grieves for you, 
my choosing. 

Then juiced on devotion, 
elevates a blue umbrella, 
supplicates and salves, 
in letting go, 
fears losing. 

The reversal of motion 
integrates calming distance, 
initiates fast retreat, 
this failing...

when the fear transcends 
All over my pine body
I was pulled to there
The fear of blur
Ran over my face
The fulgent face of yours
Stared upon my sullen face
The ocean of affection 
Foamed in your eyes
My hair hid inside 
The rough green chaperon 
My heart sucked

A smile and warm tears
A hug and holy kiss
A longing heart at stake
A spirit supplicates
The Springtime leaves
As each phone clicks
To pack up all the pieces
Pictures and poses
The car door closes
To the end of the road
Running from behind
And waving out of sight
No farewells, friend
Until we meet...
