Best Uncombed Poems
Letting Go Aunt MinnieI remember you in all your faces
from the photograph of a young girl
surprised at being looked at, and later,
Sun brown and strong over the garden hoe
or throwing your head up to one side
around...

InsanityInsanity
That insane
In the dark corner
of the narrow lane
helpless and hesitant
because she’s dumb
That insane
laughing on her voice
scratching her body,
and innocent face
blackened of
taints of madness.
A little lady in
tattered clothes
alone in crowd
searching someone
of her own.
People laugh at her
and she laughs back
with dazzled eyes
in sparkling
lights of...

Bare''Bare''
Dead whilst alive,
Forgotten yet solidly visible,
Underestimated but still the best there is.............
The sound of disappointment!
I am searching for a boy long forgotten,
Left for the bushes, never returned,
Still finding himself among st devours of life and thorns of deception,
Running for the hills,
In search of his purpose.
My...

Pepe's Coffee Lounge
I was one of the cool set,
navy blue duffle coat, scarf around
my neck, seated at a table
in Pepe's Coffee Lounge
discussing Baudelaire
and T.S. Eliot and the demise
of the political elites.
The conscription ballot hung
over our heads helmeted
in a flowering of uncombed hair
in the winter...

Distraction In the ClassroomSome boys forget their mom's words,
they leave for school in a mad rush
with uncombed hair looking like nerds;
in the classroom they have a crush.
Liz, their teacher, wears tight jeans,
they can't concentrate on the test;
she's happy for attracting the teens,
their girlfriends notice their unrest.
They hate their...

Hair and Nailshave you ever seen
a bird uncombed
or a kittens hair disshovled
is a lions mane unmanagable
or a rodents fur in stubbles
the wolves teeth
are always straight
never a miss aligne
and animals feet we always find
fur and claws well defined
the peacock and the parrots feathers
may never be refined
no dog...

My HatOrange, black, and white
Keep it pulled down tight.
Sits on my head with pride
Taking care of my uncombed hair
Ageing with daily wear
Threaded with the letters OSU
Eskimo Joe wears one too....

My First Love
Wrinkled, but beautiful still
Even in decrepit apparel and uncombed;
Jagged skin and sensual fragrance lost
But still spongy her touch is and the smell
Only thing I’d miss the most in the universe.
Toiled through hardship and still indebted,
Altruistic she- uncared and unattended her own needs,
But protected her...

Kiosk NowMy infancy was the time for imagining your unique beauty
As the saprophyte danced in the magical fountain of ambiguity
You ingenuously stole my pulverized heart with your duality
Your ironware, I mean those muscles, were more than fruitful
Just like inner potency to inspire my spirit; they were...

I RememberShe had beautiful hands, I remember
Strong and brown and crude under the choking lamplight
that wintry autumn of the potato blight
I saw them cringe and turn over and over
She thought I’d fallen asleep, but no
I watched her silently in the dark, well past midnight.
Her...

Wild HairWild Hair
Will you please
Stop complaining
I like it just the way it is
I don’t want to change it
Too bad that it is not to your standards
I like my hair long
I like it uncombed and wild
It does what it wants
When it wants
No brush or comb can tame...

Tattered Fashion Inspiration
I saw him sitting on the street,
With open arms and folded feet,
A beggar with a bowl,
He had on him a tattered jeans,
And matted locks that proved his means,
A poor and hungry soul;
I saw him coming out his car,
A rockstar with a new guitar,
The hero...

Thou Art Face BookThou Art Face Book
Face Book thou art mean to me
will you be my undoing?
From my public bursts of anger
to my public boo hoo hooing.
Opinions that I once confessed
like I like dogs, not cats.
Or how I hate republicans
and I hate democrats.
Sometimes getting full of me
