Best Tensions Poems

Let everyone love his neighbor as he loves himself
And folks once more turn to God, to each other for help
Then tensions will ease, with a reduction in stress
   Yet when that will be ~ I wouldn't dare guess

Surface Tensions
© Ben Burton 6-11-2015

Surrounding yourself with court jesters
Will not elevate your IQ
Engaging no one but supporters 
Does little to broaden your view

Stay leery the lib'ral dimension
Which seeps like an incessant tide
Unconquered, though captured red-handed
Insouciance their constant disguise

As sycophants silhouette secrets
From verity's solar-hot gaze
The moral...

Billowy storm clouds turn to skies of azure blue
Agonizing pain fades when its days are through
The trek of life has its many ups and downs
Its seasons of smiles, its times of frowns

We hope more joy and gladness are recorded
Than all the heartache and sadness that’s...

A life engulfed in tensions,
Someone kicking at the iinfra of our mansions,
Such a juncture is horrible indeed, 
To suffer and pass out is'nt a feasible deed!

Someone hammering at your sensitive senses,
Progression of confidence losing its hopeful

You might believe competitive evolution
also shows potential for cooperative co-creation
because it takes at least two reiterative trends to tangle 
and tango.

And your contentment could include polypathic tensions
and intentions
and extensions
seeking further refinement
and smoother flowing
undulating
co-resonant resolutions.

Perhaps all you have implied is a reverse of focus,
from competition as...

interlaced
  celebrations
 in beguiling settings
anticipation
consumated& fulfilled
in a  textured
tapestry
a variegated nuance
  in  convulsed
gestures

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma...

Anxiety pulls toward distraction
delusion
un-communication

As anticipation pulls toward absorption
in monoculturing illusions
and/or polyculturing illustrations of interdependence,
miscommunication
and/or bilateral,
or even multicultural communication,

The Earth's rapid climate degeneration,
now rolling out faster with private transport
and industrialized meat and poultry farming,
and longer with artificial light
and factories birthing plastic products
all night,
moves into a revolutionary...

28/10/11(home)
By Sashi.Prabhu(ZEAUOXIAN)
Behold! unto me it will ever so cling,
Often wonder why it lingers on with me,
Untold, it is to make the church bell ring,
Akin to a dark shadow it owns the locked key.

Reflect I practiced every morn for sure,
Pondered much I for every need,
Pure Thought,...

Chained between church&cloister she chose to be
A picture of the Christian walk,for all to see;
A mystic life was her remit
Visions of Divine love,was her writ-
In the world..but not of it !

Tribute to Julian of Norwich(note Julian was both a man's& woman's name in the 
1300's)...

So many packages, for no reason, I carry,
And walk burdened, my body and soul seem scary...
Tensions, I call them; nothing if I look within,
Just like an onion when I remove the whole skin...!

Any little word of my friends or neighbors, odd,
Any act for which I...

Why roam around with tension in head,
Why not live in the moment instead.
Why entertain negative premonition,
When thoughts are based on supposition.

Tensions take away our present,
in misery moments are spent.
Tension filled moments are hard to forget,
life long sadness at very thought they beget.

So many thoughts mind...
