Best Unzipped Poems

As I was busy “being”
just who I am,
I didn’t care what others were seeing.
To be as they wish, would be a sham
and I will not be part of a scam.

People are really the sum
of everything that has touched their lives.
When others take issue with what...

Watching my grand-children run and play 
It makes the mind wander, back to the day 
Such a joy to see things as fresh and new 
When you could imagine, a splendid view 

The joy to smell the scent of fresh mowed hay 
Watching my grand-children...

Meet me at the same place
Just for one last time
There's nothing left to lose now
For you were never mine
I tried to speak the words
I was to terrified to say
Seems I was right to fear
You've already turned away
You knew that I'd be angry 
Disallowed me to...

The pocketbook
Thrown upon
The car seat
Hangs precariously
Unzipped

Haven't a clue if correct...

even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die
horoscopes often lie, tearful eyes become dry
jobs come and go, people you thought you knew, you never really know.
hello's become goodbye's
doing the lows, put you on your highs
what was occasionally is now often...
and what was often is now...

Attention please, many fishes have been hooked by the bait 

They flutter their eyes, cross their legs and excuse the death rate

Desensitized by the detest, violence, and killings  

But then having the body exposed is way too chilling

Excited in all the madness, there’s no...

Part 1
1958 (Introduction to employment)

         Often I drift back to the days, where it all began. To feel again
the sharp brisk morning air against my inferior nakedness,
whilst sprightly making my way down school lane, towards the local...

''LOVE always hurts when not on the right time
when not with the right person
when not in the right place
and when not at the perfect moment''



i heard noises from nowhere
but the clearest voice was yours
yeah, love is everywhere
but dear, where are you now?

i smell the flowers...

Keep your opinion to yourself & let people live
Just because you think your perfect doesn't mean you are.
Tell me to grow up?
You grow up.

Honestly the mistakes you preach about 
Are in fact the mistakes you made at one point...
Live and learn?
More like live, screw up...

A perky woman stepped inside
The elevator car.
I’d never seen her, so her words
To me were quite bizarre.

She turned her back to me and asked
(Formalities she’d skipped)
If I would help her out because
Her dress was not quite zipped.

Of course, I hastened to comply – 
I guess...

These words are from 
the depths, 
Of a nightmare I dare not 
fathom...
These written antidote,
For that which consumes 
me inside...
Time fly fast
Can these "wingless" 
words?

I try  to masquerade 
these words in lines,
Trying  to hide that 
which is visible  to the 
eyes,
Am hurt..Am...

So my first lesson taught me, if intellect spawns logic, then of that I want no part! 
“Orwell” Had the answer;
in satire the presidium displeased, when he made it plain to everyone,
one cannot rule with precision as one would a farm yard,
whilst to break life...

I think I’m not totally stupid
I didn’t know I was dense
I can read and reread some poems
And still don’t know what was meant

I totally miss the basic meaning
Behind cleaver use of words
The intent is so camouflaged
I can't hear what should be heard

To me it just...

You drive me crazy each time I  try to call.
 You don't answer me in person at all.
 You tell me to hold but what am I supposed to hold.
 You tell me someone will be there but all you play is music.
 Is...

the other night  i spent with her,
and those memories  come racing back and those moments i  clearly remember.

Tenderly she pecks & kisses me on the lobe of my left ear,
to awaken me from my slumber to the sweet face of my dear.
