Best Undrinkable Poems

Ashes and Thirst

Evil comes in all shapes, and all sizes. 
We have all heard this many times... before. 
But how truly large, or small can it be? 
I want to ask this question you see. 
I want to know the answer, 
and I want to...

A serpent underneath blue sky,
in shade of man, in twinkle of an eye,
above brick wall, in the structure, at the floor,
venom of white dove; contaminated food, undrinkable water,
misguided youth, pregnant daughter, unfaithful father and hateful son,
mothers do pray while we walk through Babylon;
on teli and...

I must give them Love,
And Love only
Can you stop me?
Will you be ashamed of me,
Or exasperated, angered,
When my neutrality resembles bestilled water,
Undrinkable, observing and flowing…
As my choice becomes iced with silence,
And non-action?


Every atom screams,
Hate them
Speak your tumultuous mind
With passion and purpose, 
Speak and forget your...

Wars, famine and pestilences.
Death comes with a pension.

Poor people in this country.
Poverty all over, feeling empty.

Diseases spreading all over the globe.
Some mutated, some foretold.

Global warming sends a warning.
No one listens, it keeps on moaning.

Clean water becoming undrinkable.
Poisoning into the unthinkable.

Beauty that the world once held.
Destroyed...

Fisherman's Luck 

The rocks brushed by the waves, 
caressed and embraced by the ocean, 
slowly wearing down the land, 
to be carried away in pieces
back to the depths of the beginning. 

Marla Mayhem danced. 
She pranced across the sand, 
like it was open land. 
She...

Uncomfortable Comfort

Unstable state
deficiency of rest
strange agony
unknown pounce
puzzling exhaustion
uninteresting-
stressful fatigue
flowing sweat
rolling tears
salty liquid
undrinkable
but
pressing thirst
body's weak
sickness strikes
illness arrives
death smells
grave knocks
uncomfortable comfort.

DRENCHED, BUT DRYING


Waiting for the clouds to roll away
On this bright and sunny day
I didn’t make the rain myself
You helped

The drums are thundering again
Yet only I feel the repercussions
So sick of being the only one wet
But there’s only so soaked a person can get

I spoke...

I’m chilling and doing homework tonight. Leaning into it.

Last night one of our suitemates (Julia) turned 21 - she’s barable. Not that we get carded anywhere - I’ve never had trouble getting into clubs or ordering drinks - I mean never have I ever.

She had...

STATUS OF SALT

               Our staple food demands salt: Compulsory!

Is the scarceness of peace
Is like craving for sea water although its undrinkable
Is the scarceness of resources
Is like craving for something that is not yours

Is the scarceness of morals
Is like baking bread without the sugar
Is the scarceness of accountability
Is like eating meat with the bones

Is...

A conceited restaurant

After the health clinic visit in Cascais
We had lunch at a restaurant nearby
Where the outdoor market is
It was overpriced and pretentious
The food, so and so.
Had a glass of wine it was undrinkable 
Had a cold bottle of water instead.
There are many proper small...

A ship’s last voyage

The tank ship that looked like a schooner finally
made it from the black sea to Reykjavik in Iceland  
The ship dry as the dust of the Sahara surrounded
by undrinkable water, the crew was eager to go 
ashore and find a watering-...

A glass of water

He got up late and thought of coffee,
he had to drink it in black
Forgot to buy milk yesterday because it was raining
 which is good news, hotels in the Algarve, tourists can shower every 
Water, water everywhere, most of it in undrinkable
he...

You crawl under my skin
Again, uninvited this time
Drinking my sorrow
Your tail whips around my heart

Drawn in by the cold
Darkness you know so well
To look but not to touch
A sad spectacle to visit

But visit is all
Soak up vulnerability
Bathe in the grief
Wash off, walk home

Leave me with...
