Best Temporary Poems

Today might be "that day" 
When playing the victim 
Might have to end 

You need to face the challenge 
Head on 
Hiding behind the frontage of 'I can't' 
Uttering the words 'I am not ready'
Won’t always work

Somehow you need to try again 
Somehow you need...

Heart singing,

I race through warm sand;

then fling myself to the breeze!

I take the leap from land to water,

riding roller coaster crests.

Soon my skin will wear 

summer’s ink.

Afternoon musing, not quite content,
Wondering where the time all went -
The time not really given, only lent.

The first day of fourth grade,
In the next desk a new girl stayed,
With honey colored hair all in a braid.

It would not be easy to concentrate.
How could a teacher...

everything is temporary.
the future will be the past.
all them certainties,
are going to fade away,
and you’ll have nothing to show
only a morbid mind,
obsessed with death’s cold hand
and voices echoing from long ago.
everything is temporary.
what are we going to do?
but dance and laugh
drink and cry.
even your unstoppable...

White Sand and Temporary Oblivion

For an aching moment
I faced dazzling
Gypsum and glass as splinters
Of sunlight pierced the air
Bouncing bright off the landscape at
Alamogordo ---fat Cottonwoods and
	not a tree in sight not
Here, the sight of the unholy Trinity 
	test
Blessed and blast
A fitting slant rhyme for our
	slanted...

That's not your father lying there.
That's simply a temporary vessel from the Lord, a spare.

His soul is in Heaven with his lovely wife.
He's no longer in pain in this worldly life.

He's risen to Heaven to be with our Father.
His blindness and weakness no longer a...

THIS IS A SONG DONE BY CARRIE UNDERWOOD I WANTED TO SHARE WIT ALL OF YOU.


Little boy,6 years old,a little to use to being alone.
Another new mom and dad,another school,another
house that'll never be home.When people ask him
how he likes this place,he looks up and says...

They’ve traveled from one house to another.  
Some may say they’re strong enough to go on 
Without a woman to call their mother. 
Attachment is pointless, soon to be gone.  
 
Another house that will never be home.  
Little children crying themselves...

Temporary InSlamity
                 

Two a.m , still awake, gettin’ leg-shakes 
Gaggin’, burnin’ on my mis-slam-stakes 
Tryin’ to win some judge judy’s hot damn 
Thank-you-ma’am for hosting this con-slam-test 
As I...

Beauty without grace is like 
Fish far displaced from water 
And watching it die right there 
Is like living in a world with no air 

It is that flame 
That burns within them 
That bonfire they never want to see end 
If seen beyond the...

Grant yourself the opportunity to feel everything

Even when it feels like no one will ever realize 
How deeply you hurt 
That pain does not own you 
It is you at work 
Don't ever pretend 
You are content all the time 
That will curtail your growth...

Temporary identity
Tarek Hasan

So that was good ---

Why are you dark night
 Jonaka burning the light?
You were unknown unknown
who will like you own it.

So that was good ---

Why were you away
My foolish heart?
Red dawn as the sun
Uday were in my life.

That's a good.... 

Why the tears...

The temporary altar, Translation of Etiemble’s quintet: Le reposoir by T. Wignesan
							For us

As for me, I have renounced the noxious vault
where the other life child concealed a father 
whom he had sometimes betrayed his mother
who took him for someone else
the baby she sensed to be...

Temporary Insanity – for contest


Arousal’s Beasts Contained
Demanding Escape, Freedom,
Gushing Hunger’s Insatiable Jaws
Kissing Lasciviously
Moistened Need’s Openness,
Puffed Quiff, Red Softness,
Tender Undulating vibrations,
Wanton Xenogamy’s
Yearning Zone.

“Oh people of this temporary world..
May you enjoy the abundance of its trivial offerings..
You have no clue of what I see and yearn for..
And, how could you, as the death is the end of the road..
But, for the lover, it’s the union with the beloved.....
