Best Take The Stand Poems

I Love Him.

I will dream of him
lighting up my darkness,
covering me with his perfume
go crazy with love, 
and make our life sufficient
gentle and persevering.

It is time to look outside
and feel fearless,
face what I fear the most,
and when the fog's lights will
move in through my window,
its...

One Sunday afternoon in spring,
i was tending my garden,
trimming and watering the roses,
when he first passed by.
I remember standing up to break the ache,
and as i ran my hand across the face,
to wipe off the sweat,
there he was this breathtaking scenery!
He had the most fair...

To Bonnie:
If everything should fail, I’ll raise some hell until we make it right.
We’ll rob that bank and the motel even if it takes an all out gun fight!
I’ll walk through fire so you can have all you desire and more
I will not tire ‘till...

I’m not supposed to see nothing else for me, 
than what has been handed down.
The family farm with the morning alarm,
near a derelict rundown town.
To be working there for the annual fair,
that comes ‘round once a year -
Curse what I’ve done in the years to...

Disappointment and anger; now they're the real gang bangers. 
Invading our lives causing nothing but disharmony and strife. 

Not easily identified because they creep in on the slide. 
Taking root in our spirits as an underlying feature.
 
Giving birth to the enemies children those demonic...

From Heracles immortal line sprang Kings of Agiad
The blood of Gods and heroes in mortal flesh thus clad
And such was Leonidas, half brother to the King
Cleomenes of Sparta, of whom the poets sing

When came the call to Athens aid when none would take the stand
Leonidas...

I have always wanted something wonderful out of life
But my mother said there is always a price
It has nothing to do with land, money or property 
Someone has always been there for me and I am very sorry
Cowards hide behind their doors causing a terrible...

A Walk to Freedom

Nelson 'Madiba' Mandela,
Needless I say more.
But 'cos I need scribble 'bout a gross words,
I'll erupt the plain white stadium with my trusted 'vuvuzela'.

What's life without heartbreaks?
What are roses without thorns?
What's a party without cakes?
What're doughnuts without holes?

Closing in on freedom,
Its walk is...

My distraught, the thought, has lost a battle unforgot. 
I take, I give, the very words I live.
I've done, The sun, outrunning the only one. 

My actions are not my own, a story, I've stitched, I've sewn. 
I wait, I learn, my destiny turning to...

The novelty of truth has lost its true meaning
The nobility of man has lost his true being
Human being, you've lost your morality and capacity
But practically death is an eternity from liberty
And life that is part of your wife and a few cents less short...

Once at the roundabout, I stopped for precaution
Stretching my arching legs, so much exhaustion
Many a long mile I have been, 
I am steadfast without chagrin. 

Left there yesterday to get here early
Didn’t get lost but tired for surely
A pack on me back with peppermint schnapps
Lots...

Trump boring and bland
even though we did demand
will not take the stand...

Some wear the blends of foliage
Some wear the shades of sand
Others wear the colors red, white and blue
But they all are proud to take the stand.

Some prepare with their feet on the ground
Some prepare soaring high up in the clouds
Others prepare by floating on oceans...

This is the story of Jeni Haynes, whose father inflicted horrific physical and sexual abuse on her from the age of four years old. As a result she created over 2000 alter egos to get her through it.
This is my account written with respect and...
