Devoirs Poems | Examples


I Am Loved

I am loved
For I do not knoweth
I look everywhere
But I am left empty handed 
Like an empty soda can 
Every time I look
I look in the wrong places 
My soul drains down
The overflowing sink of emptiness
That devoirs it 
Hungry for more

	When I stop looking 
And actually think of the 
People I have taken for granted,
I realized that 
There love is genuine
I look up to the Lord most high,
Looking down below,
 right back at me
	I realized that I was never alone 
When times were rough for I was always loved
For my God always 
watched

Villanelle: The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – 13

The State’s then some kind of delirious Monster
Heartless It changes its head from time to time
Ultimate machine waging wars forever

Emits bizarre noises most smooth or clever
Through mouth-pieces that spin words sans sense nor rhyme
The State’s then some kind of delirious Monster

Drops never to sleep for fear of the neighbour
Has its eyes and ears peeled open all the time
Ultimate machine waging wars forever

Devoirs people kept under threat of hunger
Deprives them of human rights and over-time
The State’s then some kind of delirious Monster

Drives the sick into secret service gutter
Who then justify wars and villainous crime
Ultimate machine waging wars forever

Loves to strut on World Stage bonhomie player
While backstage lights the fuse Guy Fawkes failed to prime
The State’s then some kind of delirious Monster
Ultimate machine waging wars forever

Letters To Lilith

Oh, duchess when you ascend your neck
To scrutinize the skyline
Were you aware that you could discover?
The very marvel that for years you so yearned?



Oh, duchess did you think it feasible
That you could matriculate the novelty ‘tis amour
Did you?



Open your eyes alluring one
Shan’t be a reason to averse your devoirs
though you must dismember all that bleeds
