Best Uncared Poems

On a stone wall, by the solitary pavement,
Annoyed and angry, with daggers drawn at everyone,
I saw my neighbor sitting dejected and depressed.
Though known him for years, of late he has changed much.

His eyes had grown so cold, and his mind, so blank.
His vision, I felt...

Here I stand before hundreds of moss grown graves
There is a mournful silence that extends
Through the weed grown path, no traveller walks
The place, some morbid warning portends

Hush.... hush is this place, here no bird sings
The wind here sighs in silent pain
There is a muffled horror...

On this day I complete on the earth       
*Seventy five years, one regret                
My children and grand children      ...

i yearn for a world devoid of struggle,
where peoples are one, respectful of other people.
where bonds transcend  gender, colors, beliefs, and creeds.
a world devoid of wants, and people live simply with their needs.

i would love to walk along the streets, unhindered by fear.
tread along...

Brothers killing brothers......a field of blood
sisters slaying sisters.......instead of bearing sons.
mothers ,daughters..fathers, sons
all dead and gone, kindred spirits slaughtered one by one
by the hand of those each should love. 
I wonder if at the last moment they had second thoughts
Is this the way to go...

Laying on a dark street corner 
the flames of a makeshift fire 
the only sign of light 
and a frugal attempt at warmth, 
on a cold winter’s night 
lost in thought, 
or so it seems 
confused and helpless... 

stuck in a time zone, 
unfairly treated...

The old rusty gate opens to 
                             an abode left abruptly, with no premonition,

In the indifferent desiccated wasteland 
obscure tufts of slender grass 
struggle to rise from cleavage of ruthless rocks,
their tips holding the pearls of dew drops
sparkling in the shine of the rising sun.
I see in them the faces of children of fate
lighted by the waning smile...

In the depravity of the neglected wasteland 
obscure tufts of subdued slender grass 
struggle to rise through the cleavage of stony destiny,
the frail faces shaping the artifacts of cruel fate, 
flicker with the fading smile of residual innocence,
borrowed from the remains of the sun,
already sunk...

A garden fence worn by the weather
                            The entrance port screaming in the breeze

Street lamps still lighted
night has retired and faded
a new day unfolds

heavens rolled darkness
tucked it away for the sun
to give light and shine

in the horizon
a golden beam of sunrise
appears out of mist

in the street corner
a small child still dazed from sleep
awakens and yawns

trembling, feeling cold
he hugs...

I cannot get into heaven
God I have tried!
Suicide is a double edge sword
Especially when you survive!
Walking the streets at night
Dazed and confused
Longing to be loved
Wondering...
When is Mum, coming for me?

"Does she still love me?"
"Does she still care?"
"Does she still think of me?"
"Does she wonder, where...

The myriads of unmarked graves in the cemetery
Presenting miserable image of human heartlessness
Uncared and unsung by near, dear all and sundry
Forsaken and abandoned, victim of unkindness

Which one of them holds my mother’s remains?
My angel, my lover, a philosopher, a friend
A melancholy child riding rough terrains
I...

              Indeed God's chosen messenger

Pablo’s Plight

Blinding color, third eye closed
Squared off chin and angled nose
Arms in the back, feet from head
An odd sight it must be said
Eyes are pared but rarely paired
Ears an afterthought uncared
Daring use of brush and paint
Never quite described as quaint
One boob here and two boobs...
