Dismantling Poems | Examples


DISMANTLING MAN

The train has left the station
Tracks are perfectly aligned
Destination straight ahead
To uncover the divine

All knowledge is possesses-able
Nothing is out of reach
No pit stops allowed
As the elite gain and teach

...science...

When did science become TRUTH
And research become fact
Like little lab rats, we follow
Only to carry words upon our backs

Words that break and mar spirit
Destroy empathy and connection
Wandering in our cages
For proof of justice to incite an insurrection

...of choice...

Obviously, man must be controlled
By entities who proclaim divinity
Yes, man has been stupid
But immortal isn't infinity

When LOVE has fully come
And knowledge put in its place
Man shall kneel, willingly
Because humility provides grace

...to stand...

I’ve lost it with the fools.
I’ve lost it with the pain.
So many of us have now gone
To what is left over must remain?

The eyes of fear crying in the night.
A husband, daughter, son or wife gone forever no matter what day, what night.
Dark corridors with no doors, no promises and no light.

Why do we have to in order to live constantly be prepared to fight?
Why do I have to love them but not see you?
Why do we have to decide on where and when love must rule?

Them As Concern

Neither wished to be 
taken advantage of
Both refused to 
compromise, one spoke of
not being. favored, and in light of
circumstances he 
sought kindness above
all other facts.
Unbalanced they remained 
to one another
Seeking. advice and
 encouragement. from those
Who supported there togetherness.
He spoke of certain 
times when he relied on
His wife to make sure 
his health wasn't at issue.
He wished her to 
make his health a priority.
 Before anyone could speak of
His life she could answer 
to satisfy those queries.
She though 
was scripted and neglected
To even concern herself 
with his care. Speaking for
Her needs and in no concern for him.
What concerns a 
people who's guidance is neither
Ritual or right.
In every condition

The Dismantling of the All-Powerful Land of Liberty

You know, they say thou shalt not steal
And thou shalt not kill
But everything that seemed fictional
Has now become real
Send kids overseas
To fix the governments mistake
Guns and bombs exploding
Is how they shall wake
Taking what you can
And looking up to false idols
Giving back broken promises
And livin like supermodels
Changin the words of the Bible
To fit your needs and wants
And destroyin everyone's morals
With you fake publicity stunts
Letting terrorists into our country
Because we're the land of the free
Makin room for illegal immigrants
And havin American residents flee
Everything today is prejudice
And everyone has a certain right
What happened to free speech?
Can I even write this since I'm White?
It all boils down to money
And who is the greater power
But is it really going to matter
When you're down to your final hour?
So keep rewriting the Constitution
And coming up with more laws
To the thieves that are in control
You all deserve an applause
