Detestable Poems

The Pain of Enticing Ice

Th'pain of ice is th'lacquer o'stife
To th'begg'd bane, stilled, thawed
Caught'n satin fame, dragg'd towards
Th'Blood of a sadden'd kiss, 
"To this"
"To what o'this"
Seen 'nstead of 'nfringed love
The blade, call'd catharsis a dove,
"To this" 
"To what o'love"
Fraught, unthought shove
Fame fall'n still, dripp'd 'n drench'd f'love
Bade blade ripp'd the blanch'd flesh
O'th'pure goers' eternal rest
Lay hereafter, for'ver after,
Goeth detestable pest, upon th'
Holied site o'pelted tundra
Lay'n to rest lover o'blunder,
"To us"
"To th'last of us"
"I must"
"T'what you lust"
"To this"
"..."

The pain of ice is the cold of fear
To whatever may lay here
To whatever may stain the clear

Repugnant Rich worked in a drainage ditch
Smelling of sewer water, he developed a twitch
Detestable conditions for a graduate of M.U.
But he made a fortune and got off at two.

Ribs

Ribs

My right and left detestable ribs aren’t 
recognised as 
meeting required standards as 
stated by 
Miss Certify.

Tiger Dreams

Tiger the in-door cat.
looks out of the window,
watching, what could be a movie,
a fictional, on-going play
of an unknown world.

Instinctively, Tiger knows,
the blood-group of any sparrow,
the hurrying thoughts of a delicious chipmunk,
and the detestable habits of
our neighbor's dog,
when it is let out onto the screen
of his feline mind.

At night, Tiger curls up
to digest the many scenes
played-out that day,
all of them
persist as nocturnal cat food,
for his sharp tiger-teeth.

Premium MemberDid Mozart Ever Decompose

Do electricians ever become DElighted?
Did Mozart ever DEcompose?
Are politicians sometimes DEvoted?
Can students become DEtestable?
Are Egyptians sometimes in DEnial?
Can garden workers become DEflowered?
Once chosen can someone be DEpicted?
Do animals ever get DEtailed!
Can an engine receive a DEmotion?
Shoe salesmen are sometimes DEfeated!
Are tennis players ever DEserved?
Do former journalists become DEscribers?
Do exterminators ever get DEbugged?
Are fishermen great DEbaters?
I've heard carpet layers can suffer DElays!

Upon the Deserts of Damnation

Behold! 
Where is it no mortal soul fathoms to dare?
The foretold detestable dunes of despair!
Whose sands of crystalline luminescence 
Drown and drain thy essence. 

Far within that redolent tomb 
Hidden deeper inside the heavens moon, 
Where the souls of the damned unwillingly swoon 
Slaves to the sin that fathered their doom. 

Where thou art subject to phantom pains 
Orchestrated by the Litch who reigns 
Without delay upon his frozen throne of ice 
Whose subjects lament in the decay  
of blood maggots and eerie lice.

Infertility

Infertility
Is it a communicable disease?
Is it a blemish to the family?
Is it a detestable status?
Is it an inferior sort?
Is it a shameful disability?
Is it an imperfect position?
Is it a non-human prototype?
Is it a punishable crime?
Is it a reason to be isolated?
Is it a divine curse?
Is it an unholy living?
Is it an immoral sin?
Is it an incomplete existence?
Isn't it a blessing to become an adoptive parent?

Admiration

I love friendly people

who forget selfishness

that overcome the abysses

detestable pride of class

created by society....

I love with all confidence

  who lives independently

who lives with God and his plan,

obeying pure science

   with all the progress we can...!

Premium MemberGod Save Ukraine

God Save Ukraine
Thousands of civilians run for their lives
Leaving loved ones, homes, possessions behind
Hoping and praying that they will survive 
That their menfolk remain safe and alive.

Men fighting Putins detestable war
When there’s no logical reason at all
So many innocent people lie dead
Caused by a madman who thrives on bloodshed.

Pray that the creator’s compassionate grace 
Overcomes lost hope of the human race
That one day the Light will shine on Ukraine
And the world becomes a safe place again.

The Amalgam of Pain

I am concerned with the structures that sustain the universe, 
with the mighty river of time, 
the tablature and the compass of souls 
dispersed in their endless penances, 
the enigmatic smile of doubts 
overlapping the fragility of certainties, 
the detestable silences that precede painful decisions 
and with the thick amalgam of pain 
that poisons our days with the most varied enigmas.

What worries me is the shock 
when I wake up from the nightmare of living, 
the need for millimeter precision 
in counting the steps until the freedom of not thinking, 
the innumerable precipices 
that surround any and all will of the mind 
to keep away from the fainting, falls and stumbles.

What I am concerned about 
is the indifference of entities or deities 
that could undo the deception of atoms 
in condemning us to finitude, 
constantly and habitually 
expressing unmistakable signs of contempt 
for creatures who have given them a supposed superiority 
over their own destinies. 
my concern is about the extension of the shadow
that negatively illuminates the path 
we should follow under the light.
the rest don't worry me.

Fluttering Darkness

Fluttering darkness, take wing.
Malignant talons, take life.
Oblivion wings, take light.

Pluck from the shade,
this foul feeling manmade,
without a reason or rhyme.

Execrable expression of earthly emptiness,
Detestable display of dauntless devotion,
Perverse parade of practical pretence,
Irreverent instance of intrepid insurgence.

"Only faith may absolve you"

But "darkness",
launching into freedom's embrace,
need not be forgiven nor freed

I Love Good People

I love friendly people
that forgets selfishness
 and overcomes the abysses
detestable pride, of class,
created by society....

 with all the progress that we can

Premium MemberArrogance Aerobics Humor



                 Arrogance Aerobics




To be super smug and arrogant, are both obnoxious 
and so utterly detestable.

Like a male ballet dancer in sleek, white tights....
sporting only one, lonely testickle!

Ignorance By Osmosis

Standing next to stupid,
pale tone idiocy 
can’t even proximity spell
moral illiteracy

Ignorant feelings blinded by color;
stunted neural moles moving backwards
behind a non-lucid, Luddite veil

Vacuous thoughts unruly did
beta wave at the cloth
Amidst the mindless mob mentality,
moronic orations ran amok —   
Inane utterances blabbered freely

Wiping their void secretions
upon the snot rag
of civil discourse devolution

Rebel ignorance is a kin 
to grey matter dim
Blue-ray vision 
of a depleted cerulean era: 
Haughty sovereign time-share hastily closing

Those dull white cells
are persuasion immune to wisdom — 
Aural epiphany fails

Slug osmosis, diffuse mannequin ideas move dummy slow
Porous understanding filters
Dark past emotions eclipsed by an unpaid debt tomorrow

Ancient bigotry has grown Babble Tower, 
talking mule stooge stale
Fresh refugee scapegoat anger now 
smart monkeyshine sells    

Empty conscience quotient
is bosom bury    downright low
Hateful imagination is
dunce concentration detestable

Standing too close to stupid
will severely 
reduce one’s mental acuity
