Demolitions Poems | Examples


Premium Member Sins of Ancestry

Burning in black flames of eternal woes,
my heart yearns to find answers it's needing.
Skin begins to wilt like a winter rose,
bruised from deep wounds of internal bleeding.

Haunted by sad soul's whimpering mourning,
shards of hope crack like dire demolitions.
Stumbling and crumbling without a warning.
An endless demotion of emotions.

Hail of tears plunder on marble tombstones.
I question the deceased for explanations,
but beneath the earth they have become bones.
I turn to the skies to express frustrations. 

Taking back my pain, so pardon my pleas,
as I raze the roots of my ancestry.

Dan the Man was a demo man
demolitions were his main plan
	lost his toes 
	then his nose
poor Dan’s plan’s a flash in the pan

The Late Muhammad Ali

A whirlwind of a pugilist,
With punches that could crush a cyst,
In the admirers eyes summoning Mist,
The Destroyed by him a long list,
Many of them by their families missed…
He got them down but still them kissed,
Of a Life-and-Death business making a tryst,
You’d tag it a party and your own waist twist. 

A whirlwind of a pugilist,
With laughing legs but a crying fist,
Timing his demolitions with the watch on your wrist.
This treasuring and it never was ceased,
Many faces lighting up as many getting creased,
Of those who got its “He’s the Greatest!” gist.

Sadly, he hadn’t his Parkinson sniffed,
Angels hadn’t worried too to have us briefed,
Only us radioed his domestic squabbles and rift,
For his ring legacy, a displeasing gift…
Towards an uncheery finale did he drift:
My Gemini Twin and former spendthrift.

The Real Concern

If human race is the best of the creatures
Why? It is showing the worst of the features

Man boasts of his great inventions
That were made out of scientific intentions
But he has never thought their aftermath
And caused a concern for all the generations

Machines and factories he invented
And like a crazy senseless he erected
Everywhere without thinking
What to do with the waste going to be generated

Almost all the scientific creations
Are giving to Nature the worst demolitions
And nobody ever thinks of harms
Unless they become uncontrolled demons

My real concern is what we are going to gift
Our coming generations with this reckless shift
More polluted environment, more dirty earth
And overall lack of life giving moral lift
