Best Sworn Poems

This doesn't belong to me
here you can have it back
i held it now for almost seven years
its getting heavy
you can take it anytime
i don't want to hold this anymore
why cant you take it
it doesn't fit
and it doesn't belong
it tears me apart
the struggle goes on
go ahead...

The Truth Of Dearest Love Sworn, I Ask God How

Over the grit-stained shoulders of ancient marble
Rests a million vagaries of humanity's million sins
Just as earth's flocks of beautiful songbirds warble
So goes the evils engaged in by millions of men
As trees shower this olden earth with...

First day on the job,
you took an oath to only tell lies
Had to sign a non-disclosure agreement,
before you got the Company suit-and-tie
You're CIA now,
sworn to secrecy
You're in the world of espionage,
living a 007 reality
Illegal arms dealers,
Mata Hari babes
Foreign rogue generals,
dark net cyber caches
Toss in a...

Who did it
Whodunit
I really do not know 
But this evening
I will witness 
a truly iconic show

The Mousetrap* it is named
its claim to fame I hear 
Is “the world’s longest run”
Now in its 67th year

Dame Agatha Christie 
well ~ she wrote the play
and would be utterly...

Praises to the one, that allowed me, to be born,
My father in Heaven, why do many scorn,
I believe your Holy honor, will be reborn.
I praise thee, up high, hearing a French horn.
To you My Lord, my faith, my soul, is sworn.

This time, this time I will succeed
Never again, never again will I let you rule me
A passage, a passage once hidden by treachery
You are, you are so blind to what I can do
The power, the power that lies dorment within
Is building, is building deep inside...

         TO  A SPIRIT SWORN

There I was in a diner dining quite alone
I recall a blond waitress whose’ name was Joan
I was sitting there un-tidy, un-happy and un-couth
And suddenly aside me sat a spirit who promised...

Faint bubbles of ache twinge amidst the froth
Steps cause trips to be carefully guided
But a bricked fall would waist the pain of pace 
So weight continues to race pain faced shock
Grimaces speckle the shock one sided
And grace stops hiding from the hate of shape.

A mental...

Magical miracle pink jellyfish kingdom was a mirage of the mind.
It is your imagination my parents said, there is nothing of the kind.
I discovered it one day when I fell into the ocean of a sea very deep.
But I was sworn to secrecy, so I...

Dwindling dwarf continued to dwell
Down by the dubious Dutchman’s dell
Did anyone know
He was a dynamo?
I did, but I was sworn to never tell....

Of diff'rent lives we often speak,
When we are left out; all alone
And when we feel so old and weak-
We know it's all we've ever known
Our lives outside our inner shell,
That place inside our secret Hell
To all are Sheep they sweetly weep-
 A Wolf! (no one...

To Those This Brave, True Warrior Is Sworn To One Day Defeat

When violet pours its sadden verses onto burning sands
and heavens above spit green poison upon savage lands
up from murky dark evil caves so very far below
down were the wicked witches, red imps and black...

A strong knight,
     a sword in hand;
          stands smug
                in his shiny

Fueled by affection, once carved to a tree
Strong as a hard-working honey bee
Found selfless in you, a sworn guarantee
I hope this devotion answers her plea!

I hold you next to them, as we both sway
A never-ending nights finest fiery array
But our song is humming in defiant...

I think back to a comfortable place,
And from inside of it there is an image of your face,
The image is permanently burned there forever to dwell,
Always there in its own little shell,
As i think back my memories of you unfold,
Without these memories of you my...
