Best Taker Poems

Spent a little time in a world so right 
Thousands of words filled my night 
Met a little filly, I would call my own 
Casting my fears into the great unknown 

I heard her unique beat, saw her dance 
We started our own poetic romance...

As Sol arises, greets the morn
the soon test taker wails,
"I'm doomed! If I had only read
The Canterbury Tales!

Or more of Samuel Collerige,
or Wordsworth, Yeats or Shelley,
More Medieval or Old English,
some Eliot or Browning!

Or how to spot a romantic
or how a Victorian,
or who saw Tutors on...

Pain Taker

It pays to dance through the moments
That bend and break our souls,
To give our souls to freedom
And to let our pain go.

It is healing to cry through your pain
To unleash its holding beast
The salty tears, are rivers of freedom
That flood the broken face.

It pays...

Some shout no to corporate welfare
And spit on those who say otherwise.
Tax loopholes seem unfair,
To those who minimize
Their day-to-day and scrutinize
The monthly budget.
The craftsmen yowl this advice,
Be a Maker, Not a Taker.

An artisan lists out what's true and fair;
A list of various jobs and supplies.
To...

It appears that Billy, the Kid had some fun with a census taker
during that period when the Kid was a cattle rustler.
On the application where it states what one does for a living
the Kid jotted down "cattle managing."...

He snatched me, cuddled me, 
A straying lamb in the wild.  
I peeked into his eyes; a flame danced.
I cupped my mouth, mumbled: 
In love with me! 

He pressed me to his heart; 
Kissed my boney cheek. 
I stink, don't I? My lips trembled.
He...

Alarm clock, the scream begins the day.
Hurriedly I rush to shower and dress.
The car where I speed to fight my way.
The cell phone already crying in distress.
Elevator with the company’s display.
Email cluttered with today’s spamming mess.
Time saving, what they called them long ago.
Time taking is...

You broke my heart
You took away my dream
My love was great but now it's too late
You did me wrong
That's why I'm gone
And I'm not coming back no matter what you say or do
How can we be when you did me so cruel? 
Your a fool
Your...

How many stories of your love i'm gonna tell
But, i've not always been the best thing to show
And How many ladders of this painful tower i'm gonna fall
When everything's changing and it's hurts but i'll have to grow
And i'm doing fine.

I bored everyone with ton...

With an oar and a long boat
Down river goes the deal maker,
Ferrying another soul afloat 
... For I am their taker ...

Black cloak 'round my shoulder
Two coins in my bony hand,
I bring the younger or older
Off to a more distant land

Paddling waters, still and gray
Done...

on chimney top's and dust swept sweeper's
the lady talk's above gin soaked hysterics
he'r new man is void of his features
void of himself,and void mostly of spirit

in shameless garden's
reminded of constant ly worded wordsworths
i beg  the hangman's pardon
to word,worthly the word's man's worth

drive feasting on...

there is a man that is in pain and he is just sitting in the dark waitting for you. But he goes and look's for his prey. And he took his soul, looking into  his eye's, and taking out his soul when he is...

eyes tight shut &
deep within, experiencing
the personal rush which
relies on the action of 
the moment but only 
in as much as the used is
being used well,
for coming to the 
moment was all part of 
the game to steal
just exactly what it is that
they wanted, as...

Unwelcome... (Users)

Do this little favor for me, 
and I will love you all my days. 
Do as I ask, and I promise life 
will be complete, 
especially so, 
if you smell my feet. 

It does not matter if this request causes... 
pain, suffering and or......
