Best Warped Poems

WARPED AND TWISTED

HARSH WORDS, VIOLENT BLOWS
HIDDEN SECRECTS THAT NO ONE KNOWS
EYES ARE OPEN, HANDS ARE FISTED
DEEP INSIDE I’M WARPED
I AM TWISTED

SO MANY TRICKS, SO MANY LIES
TOO MANY WHENS, TOO MANY WHYS
NOBODY IS SPECIAL, NOBODY IS GIFTED
JUST WARPED AND TWISTED

SLEEPING WHILE AWAKE
CHOKING ON MY DREAMS
LISTENING LOUDLY...

All the time I was descending into that deep, dense cavern of a hole

Between my shoulders an uneasy crick appeared and seemed to slip into my soul. 

Overhead, jagged, stalactites hung, daring any to allow this cave to be explored

Mystic webs floated within the shadows,...

The jug spilt water, wetting the table
Now bent, twisted, buckled and warped skew-whiff
By flaw to twist coiled within the fibers
when timber dried, planed, sanded and dressed smooth.
How cruel for the carpenter who toiled
to make the table top lined-up and square
For the owner of the table...

Harsh words and
violent blows,
Hidden secrets
nobody knows,
Eyes are open, hands
are fisted,
Deep inside I'm
warped and twisted,
So many tricks and
so many lies,
Too many whens and
too many whys,
Nobody's special,
nobody's gifted,
I'm just me, warped
and twisted,
Sleeping awake and
choking on a dream,
Listening loudly to
a silent scream,
Call on my mind, the
numbers unlisted,
Lost in...

The hues of affliction caught my glimpse 
Maddening horror scratching my doorstep 
Clashing with severe torture,
Scorching away my destiny...my confidence 

Hallucinations take hold 
Risk shoved in a deserted briefcase 
Pluck the rose pedals that reveal your wasteful woe

Now your woe is crystal clear in your outspoken instructions you very much...

Long, long ago
There was a princess
So lonely
so kind
she decided that she wanted a brother
She looked into the mirror, 
thus her brother was created

I promise to serve you forever into the dark
No matter what happens to you, my Lark
Even if you tell me to take my...

The six strings on the wall
Don’t mean a thing anymore
The poster behind them 
Doesn’t remind me of Strawberry Fields anymore
(or childhood car rides back from grandma’s)
I know longer plug in my father’s old record player
(Just to hear Fat City)

But still every time I hear a...

I was a compelling abstract painter, engrossed in the world of vibrant colors,
Like the endless intensities of rainbow hues, that cancel any need for others.

Beauty was was always in my naked eye, in warped images of a colorful life,
Like artistic nature, which always draws the...

I never thought that your endeavor
to control my mind with all of your anger
could warp it forever.
How do you see that it is fair 
to live a life in fear?
Even if I might know I'm 
quite safe. I wouldn't dare
open up my gate.
My garden of...

frustration tearing at my soul
Where to turn to find a goal
My second cousin uses reiki
To heal across the void of space
He used it once on me one night
I felt his touch inside my bones
Though his hands never touched my skin
The healing came from deep within
But...

Jack and Jill
Went up the hill
And there she broke her water

She laid down
Upon the ground
And bore them both a daughter...

Racism makes me want to puke.
I’ll hurl a brick or two.
I’ll loot a store to make my point.
Who’ll help me? How ‘bout YOU?

I’m chilled by cops’ brutality.
Who do they think they are?
I’ll set some fires and knock folks down
and cuss till eardrums jar.

Huge crowds are...

O little children, up there in Angel land somewhere still; remain!?

Lost amid the stars and chasing Unicorns that somehow continue to

Disappear, just when your beauties draw near to be left with but again

A bottle of tears and how long; this swarm of bumblebee's to chase...

A battle ground
where
young
Boys battle
fist pumping
dizzy spells
on edge
Electric shoots up
our spines

We drink in the aggression
and we spit out
lyrics
as we push
further

Charged
hearts on fire
We are going round 
and round
Listen to the blaring sound

never stopping
the bruises never softening

Dust storms
kicked up 
By 
our warfar
Like little tornadoes
Creating
our own destruction

Covering our lips
and
legs
We...

Losses not consolidated leave contributor raw
Arrears rip pages of rational compassionate law
Turblent thoughts toss turn to channel retaliation 
Embittered brain rubs static into smooth radio station
Nocturnal curtain eternal drawn over forgiving stance
Tortured cortex tar drips coal smudge repugnance 


Behind lids of eyes fingertips pressing upon
Lacking...
