Best Vindictiveness Poems


Fugitive From Gossip
terza rima

Years of experience, a discovery -
I can speak without making use of my jaws.
Prudence and patience are rudimentary.

Some folks get their kicks using scuttlebutt claws.
Their tongues' crude vitality comes with closed eyes;
emotional blindness - the probable cause.

Starting with prejudice, they out and out lie.
When...

Premium Member Ice On Fire
As in crystal methamphetamine, the mind becomes cold.
Anxiety, paranoia, and schizophrenia
Creep in, like snakes and deathstalker scorpions, uncontrolled
Are bones, veins, flesh, and blood affected by asthenia?

The body begs for calm composure; the moody mind mulls.
Midst fires of optimism, the ice of pessimism melts.
Restlessness and rebelliousness...

Ghana Needs Peace
It is the home truth, that only, a twerp and a divvy honors and praises war.
So I think, is time, the nation sends the message of war around to let it reach all.
For war becomes rife in every nooks and cranny of our lives during...

Sisterhood
Hey girl, what's up?
just called to check on you,
Cuz when you're part of the sisterhood ,
that's what sisters do!

Be times good, or be times bad, 
rather you woke up happy,
or rather you woke up mad, 

A sister will listen,
she doesn't always give advice,
she's thoughtful in...

Missing
Can anybody tell me how they get over that synonym,
             Missing. 
I am unable to regulate my soul, 
It doomed my thoughts, defeated
my entity, dictated the pleasure's 
off me, to feel the Moment.

Missing,...

My Dream World
Where everyone is foot loose,
Where all are their own ruler,
Where no one is chained,
That’s my dream world.

Where dreams always come true,
Where there are no heartbreaks,
Where none ditch the other,
That’s my dream world.

Where, in heart of hearts, all love all,
Where only brotherhood persists and no hatred,
Where...

Premium Member Haunted By Wonder
I have become haunted by therapeutic wonder,
within wonder,
surrounded by Wonder,
made of Wonder
these past few days
and traumatically troubling nights.

I have also become terrorized by vindication,
vindictive Win/Lose threatening relationships
learned from retributive justice philosophers
who are also parents
and teachers,
so also soldiers
and autonomous entrepreneurs
and Win/Lose economic and competing political leaders
vindicating...

The Unwanted Priest
Only on his palm were cowries
And thread-cloaked bullhorn found.
Only on his neck we found 
The  coral beads of truth and courage.
Only on  his hands lies the
Pearl of selflessness and 
Emblem of  Pedantry.
Only on his waist we found
The girdle of love  for...

Premium Member Costs of Freedom
The value of individual freedom
seems impossible to quantify
without at least knowing,
What is this freedom for?

What is this freeing political and economic purpose?

Will my freedom
and your egalitarian
side by side
sometimes competitive
sometimes cooperatively multi-sided
liberty
liberate us to live in robust wealth
of interdependent multicultural health?

Is this individual freedom's disvalue
to die...

The Ghost of Bill Zison
A Penn Valley phantom appears to haunt and lurk
   premises at 1148 Greentree Lane
his youngest daughter (Abby) I pledged my troth and, natch won my Zison’s 
Dunkirk
  ire and vindictiveness akin to rivalry of Abel versus Cain
now breeds and festers hallucinations that...

NO FREEDOM FOUND FOR  FOOLS

The three of us knew what we were doing
We also knew what we were doing was wrong
What we didn’t know was that trouble was brewing
But numbers made us all feel strong

We came and went within a wisp of woefulness
And had...

You Took the Bait
You work so hard, seven days a week
Our lives are separate. They have to be.
You're up in the morning and out by five
I'm just coming in and barely alive
I want to be with you but there's never the time
So I just have to miss you,...

The Fallen Leaves In the Rain
It’s such season.  Even during those long and gray rainy days,
in the drought under the scorching sun, and in the storm that visited with the great flood; the bad seed sown in the springtime holds out till his hour has come with teeth clenched,...

Truth Be Told
Closed eyes are blinded by the world, claiming that the truth is a sickness.  refusing to listen to the cries of our so real suffering of the soul.  
We embrace the drastic changes of our society also using social media as an emotional...
