Deselected Poems | Examples


D Poem

This damned domain of dominoes destined to fall
This doddering diatribe deliberately designed
This dwelling damp as deadwintered Darlington
This deeper dream of dungeons and dragons

This desperate dirge of dying deliberations
This drum droll as December’s daylight done
This decorated delightful deck of diamonds
This driven date that doomsday deselected

This dotted, dashed diary of dark desperation
This demystified danger we dryly decompress
This dead, defunct day that drew disgust
This damned domain of dominoes all fallen down.

Premium MemberWe Do Not Fit In

Old photographs dug up, memories ancient
It is akin to a past life being resurrected
Amidst voices excited, we are patient

We live in the now, thoughts deselected
Really seeing no cause to rekindle the past 
Art of living in the here and now, well perfected

Earth life plays out as is ordained, the die is cast
Prior soul agreements determine experience 
Why be aghast, for this dream won’t last

Devoid of desire, pristine our innocence 
As a rebel and a nerd, we follow not the herd
Remaining ever blissful in our self-luminescence 

It’s no longer necessary for us to get in the last word
Ensconced in bliss, each in-form node is stirred

As we slowly soften attention
simply looking about in gentleness
empathy tuning into subtler vibrations 
we feel impacted by misaligned consciousness 

This anomaly of contraction is easily corrected
by reducing identity borne attachment 
recognition having ego deselected
thus nestled in contentment

Premium MemberThe Vaporised Self

Taking each occurrence as perfect
although it may not be apparent
ceasing to weigh or measure or size
we flow in the current unresistant

Each doing that is done is with gusto
there being no stupor phlegmatic 
for unendingly throbbing with rapture
bliss in renewal has us all ecstatic 

We may say that we do not really exist
as the word is usually interpreted
for our identityless presence emptiness 
frivolous ego agendas deselected
