Deities Poems - Poems about Deities

At the Risk of Sounding Crazy, There Are Deities at the Roller Rink

They knelt behind a photo booth humming
hymnals to a tooth-
decayed brand of gen X truth—
old gods' wants reclaim the youth.

Those with Obliging kin, like these

Shall be.

Deities and Boogeymen

Death is the one sure thing
guaranteed to take life's sufferings away.
And still, my soul seeks immortality
in its search for God.
Religion is tempting;
but only if I can convince myself
to accept blind faith.
God is no more than a lie to some;
and yet, to others, He is the ultimate truth.
The shame and the sham of organized religion
as viewed

Lost Deities

A gigantic statue of  Buddha
slowly melts in a city’s outskirts in Thailand.

Lady Liberty slowly drowns into the Atlantic,
as New Yorkers writhe in terror.

Gods’ heads in the Easter Islands roll away
like marbles into the ocean.

Man’s history has been erased,
after destroying symbols that immortalized
his rich, historic past.

Gigantic, flaming mushrooms have carried
man’s history with them….

Forgotten Deities, Revised

Long forgotten deities,
strewn across these lands,
broken by endless wars,
waged against darkness,
Last of them, a Pharaoh sits
upon a broken throne,
grey eyes widened in surprise,
even as his ill-gotten power,
grows.

Forgotten Deities

Now forgotten deities,
strewn across these lands,
broken by endless wars
waged against darkness

Long forgotten deities 
lay upon the ground,
bodies broken by disbelief,
long ago forgotten.
Last of them 
a Pharaoh sits
upon a broken throne,
grey eyes widened in surprise,
even as his ill-gotten power
grows.

Deliberately Delivering Designed Deities

Twenty-three metres. An elephant leap. Vast leg spasms and sporadic duties to a tiled polished floor. Fire formatting finishing frames. And a pyrolysis of a purple strand of hair in a sinkhole waging war with a little flea. Never let it be said that a dynamic IP address will come from work as adjectives are

False Deities

False deities
Ignorance plagues many heart beats
Fake feats
Woe, false deities

Impostor's dead deeds
Spreading disease
Blind zealots walk preposterously
Woe, strenuous needs

Spoiling continents across the sea
Corrupted reeds
Entangle and drown us as we sink
Woe, anchored dreams

Vain is the cup from which they drink
Bitter sips
Help me find the missing link
Woe, tainted lips

True deity
Jesus Christ,
Separates the lies you see
Who else died for me?

True

When Women Were Deities

June 2, 2014 at 7:26pm

 Too much testosterone in our Bologna

too much testosterone-e in our baloney

killed the dignity of our femininity.

Stepped out of my character onto front

lines, armed with cocktails, rocks, and lighters

Mothers, warriors, and freedom fighters.



Black, setbacks and women's rights too

taking us back 360 degrees, we needed

to be seen on the scene. We had

The Deterioration of Distant Deities In a Vicious Solvent

What do you need?
Loneliness
Behind your heart’s curtain
Standing defiant
Kneeling slowly
Flowers of hope
We have sowed in flesh
Withering
Under narcissistic necessity
In An atmosphere 
Made for self protection
Clouds consisting of consciousness
Evaporating 
Lost like empathy

Apocalyptic accusations
Fingers of fate
pointed
Producing
Stressful souls
Sharp words
Rip and tear
All meaning
That lives
When your eyes open


Let me burrow 
To secrets
Held so close
Gasping for your breath
And dying for your life
Let me

Darling Deities

Anointed angels are alluring ambassadors
They are the saintly, soaring spirits, we all adore
Sent from heaven… the hills so high and holy
God seldom send them to tell us a surprising story

They are blessed beings with wide, wholesome wings
Angels are choice choristers, with solemn songs to sing
They never sleep nor slumber… always on duty every day
They are
