Divider Poems | Examples

Heads Or Tails

Only
a coin toss
standing 
between them
Fame 
the divider
with fans
to embrace
Caught
in the essence
as twins
symbiotic
One 
in the limelight
the other
— ungraced

May the earth reject it..Let the mountains dance..For the
God of all universes will break this trance.' No more shall
You dabble..' instead you will ride, the road of rejection in
Pain you will writhe.' You have sullied creation.' 
Now.!  You are to be judged in your pride.!

Hate 
Miracle Man
November 25, 2023

Hate is a horse that only tosses off its rider,
Hate seldom affects the cowboy on the fence.
Hate is evil and makes differences a divider,
Hate is a condition and commands recompense.

Premium MemberOn a Clearing Morning

On a clearing morning I awaken,
yesterday’s ruckus subsiding;
corporal tensions having
been slept away, a dove softly
cooing on my window sill
in the flower box having made
a nest – room for both buds and
nurturing…

the cat at bay, the pane a permanent
divider, every night he awakes to
consciously dream, eyes like fixed
lasers, into the dawn he salivates,
wonders of our shared mystery, why 
the mouthful and he separated, by the 
same God who pets and soothes, calls him
precious…recalling the turkey they
shared – dispatched, tastefully presented 
as grace…?

Fade

fade
one of those with the lines on the end/there's always a divider/between us and them/and between me and them/it's best this way/for they can't get too close/i don't class them as friends/don't want them helping me/when things are bad burning blasted/don't want them celebrating/my son's graduation or my new tattoo/i want them distant/edge of my radar scope/nothing but blips/over there not here/leave me alone don't stress me/we are this way for a reason/i'll add more reasons/for i endure even when i fade

A Christian Mother Unhappy With a Smoker

Your swell appetite for tobacco 
Is a sure life-time divider;
Of winds making her a sirocco,
Even as she stops being your provider …

Softening and calmer, asks you aside
And entreats you to her sit beside
For a voicing of her disappointments in you
And challenges to say “It isn’t true!”

Soon, absorbs her rude shocks
And for you Heaven’s Gate unlocks
But against further errands for Lucifer,
Unless you wish to with him suffer …

A mention of your black lips that give you away
And the Acrid Smell of The-Gone-Astray

“So, my son, it’s a U-Turn now
And I’m sure you understand ‘How’
“No more celebratory twisting of lips
To free cigarette’s atrocious wisps 
Nor plying of routes to the markets
That would circulate it in packets’.

“You now crush the sticks not smoked
And not into it read pleasures choked”.

Tanka Poem

Tanka as Poem

 I have been outside
Nature is beautiful they say
It was rather cold
The sun a polished one euro
Clouds are the sun’s flunkies

Inside looking out
Nature looks fantasyland
You can’t lure me out
The wilderness is insecure
And sometimes the wind blows hard.

I’m civilized man
Outdoor is discovery channel
Sharks and dark water
Nature needs a glass divider
Enjoying our inimitableness

Premium MemberThe Void

My considerations are devoured by the Void.
Instinct and certainty are generally devoid.
In slight spite of everything, I cease here.
I'm stuck in the created voids phantom clear.

I falter and appear to be stuck. 
In an endless descending twisting snuck.
It's essentially impossible to escape this. 
I can't move away from my premonition bliss.

I'm caught inside my spirit by the abyss. 
It feeds off my mood, which serves to permiss. 
It burns through me from the back to the front. 
It keeps me out because I can't confront. 

In my body freezing, relentless divider. 
I've turned into my sole survivor rider.

Premium MemberA Day of Misfortune

My cooler crocked, and my stove tragically burst. 
My roof fan has become unhinged from the thread. 
The dishwasher declined to start and had scent of burnt. 
A breaker in one of my divider stoves is dead.

When I let one loose in the elevator
As we hear a significant break, an aged lady arises. 
I advised her: not to be afraid crying isn't for senior. 
"My primary care physician thinks I look 20," she replies.

Floating City On the Cloud

Getting across  Kantabon
I find dense Elephant Road
Left the old road-divider 
At nine o'clock at night;


Pankhiraj Rickshaw flies in the air
In the mysterious light of sodium lamp-
The illusory drone.


Chasing me some fake face book IDs
Agony throws the Shaking net.
Zuberi Restaurant fries
The hybrid Climbing Fish 
Digitally welcomes the Motaleb Plaza.

Living life less razzle-dazzle
Trine binder you whine
Delamination determined separation
Zero settled for clarity
Woolly winder Dominion me
While you carry impunity!?
Sliced high and decidin’
Four more years Biden'

No, But I Want

No; I don't want to be a poet

Stinginess in certification 
Not in me really

I certify straightforwardly
Everyone in the world is a poet;
But the phrase of words expressed by everyone 
is not poetry

Yes, man is the crown creation among fauna and flora
But not everyone has humanity, conscience;
Brutality, bigotry, divider among human being
maybe something another but not human

because of my belief
The holy scriptures are not a measure of truth,
Through the veins of practical life
doing peaceful anything for the welfare of entire world peoples
is true religion 

Worship, coming to the house of prayer
Just a sign of worldly displaying righteousness
That’s not the reality of self knowing;
The pious - the people who do everything on earth
without desire of exchange

No; But I want to be a true human, not a poet
