Best Utter Poems

One cold day, I was burning up
The rain outside was dry
The sunshine, mooned each falling star
Out there, inside was I

Reading, when I'm fast asleep
I saw no movement stand
I reached without and outstretched arm
to flick the fly that land

Bouncing, being very still
I thought it lively, dying
When...

Do you fear dying?
Have you breathed utter darkness
that tests your resolve?
The night is ghastly only
if you lose sight of Heaven....

Listen to the forest in the depth
of one’s mind and craft
arresting soundscapes
from within.
Gaze into a spectral morning
dazzling  anew and watch
those scales that slither
from one’s eyes,
Utter silken threads that pulse each vein 
with choral church bells  ascending
 thru a literati conduit.
Wallow in the cascade...

Remember that lady you fell in love with?
Do you remember that man that made your heart beat faster?
The people you promised the world too?

What happened to them?
I know the years gone by has left their mark
They might have grown a little older
But do you know...

Here's a good bit of news,
that I just discovered!
A guy fell into an upholstery machine,
but is now fully "recovered"!

This is more useless info,
I came across a week ago!
Atheism, is a "Non-Prophet organization"!
Just in case you didn't know!

Someone made a query, 
just the other day!
"Where do...

When sneezing does it feel like you head will come off
I'm always ready to catch it much to my friends guffaws
They cheer and high five me
As I stick it back on with glee
Quite a spectacle, utter amazement it can cause

the big lone boulder
knows utter tranquility
with each waking dawn

The way you sit and comb your hair,
with languid strokes and shoulders bare;
your gazing at the looking glass,
reveals your pedigree and class. 

The way you walk with swaying hips,
the way you kiss with melting lips.
I love the way you come to bed;
it’s in your smile....

sometimes you have to look after your sanity
and try to understand the laws of sequence
where before and after absolutely must preexist
perhaps consciousness cannot access its source
but we're not automata and we've come a long way
through lunacy and habit and clutching
to the point where we have...

the future cannot be but a computation
and that's where all the problems start
one after another all at once
how are your levels of satisfaction arrived at
personally generally universally consistently
how good is your math
how good can your math be
substitute anything for the word math
mine is only a...

how the  else you going to progress
if you don't Sherlock Holmes the mirror
look what we've become
men hunting each other
for sport money and babes
an insane ability to believe anything
and that's all there is to it
you notice these things do you
goes my neighborhood Gestapo man
my great...

"That's utter balderdash," I loudly screamed
you can't catch a dragon with a mousetrap.
This operation proves you have no clue
we're in trouble; put on your thinking cap! 

I'm sorry, but luck is not on our side
and we don't have the time for dissension.
Apples to apples we...

in the language of personal amplification
you'd think it was all a scam
to make you drop your guard
and play patty cakes with Evil
job 3 was to rearrange your molecules
into an actual you
capable of withstanding
the outcomes you generate
from a lack of detail
where science is not to be...

The complete, utter terror in her eyes when I came to the hospital that day.
     Made me want to turn around and run away 
before I knew what the doctor had to say.
     "Sir your Mrs. has...

There are some things in life,
that seem a bit absurd!
Like why is "abbreviated,"
such a long word?

Doctors are thoroughly Schooled and Trained.
Consequently, I'm quite appalled,
cause once they start seeing patients,
"Their Practice" is what it's called!

Another thing that bugs me,
is why people have such trust,
when the person...
