Dystopian Poems - Poems about Dystopian

Febrile Fog obfuscates palimpsest varnished promises.. Naysayers hoodwinked... deluded players peeling layers..denuded.. Deafening din of our chagrin... Espoused by rabbles roused by mandarins’ sins.. Tarnished...pampered pilferers pickpocketing public purses... Deploring the warring cacophony of citizens curses.. Ignoring the boring nagging nadir of nurses... Corporate castles built without stilts on hourglass sands.. Placards versus lanyards.. Culprits preach parsimony from privileged pulpits.. Civic critics.. protests...pyrrhric..? No...

Midtone grey surrounds what’s left of a man’s soul Scenes of biblical abominations troll Inky are the hellish horizons appalled An okay is needed for anything at all Manipulating truth determines your life Erasing individuality is part of your strife Robotic neurotic, emotionless choice, nary a voice Force proles controlling every movement A new history engraves the stone 'tis...

He knew the flower to be fair, but he did not want to wait. So he turned to the promises of the machine. It offered quick solutions -perhaps imperfect- but they were on-demand. Scalable. Inexhaustible. And they cried for nothing. They had no need. Perhaps there were flaws, but they could...

It was 2039, a nation laid low, A once-proud land, now shrouded in woe. We stood on the brink, victorious near, But the invaders' shadow cast our darkest year. It began in '21, a fateful day, When a leader’s hand paved the invaders’ way. Like rats, they multiplied, a hungry horde, Their poison spread, a blight...

Dystopian When I see in modern homes, blank walls not disturbed by art, the center of peace  an outside sofa for a whole family to sit until a dad is arrested for child abuse In the building, most families have gone  on a few days holiday, at the same place in the Algarve, returning on Monday and talk about it for...

I never voted, anyhow supported, never trusted Those who rule now Yet I am claimed responsible Over the deeds of people I never trusted And my name is not Josef K. In the light of the absurdity of what’s happening, The catastrophe of the rational and the triumphs of the irrational I have a humble request To masterminds that manage The great...

I chose to love Embraced bitter sweet love My mind's patched My heart's banded up Yet it heals to be fibrosed To never beat like before All a consequence of loving Loving has never been more difficult But do I still will to love You are damn right , I do Cos it's my way out of a dystopian life Love's hurts are...

this death will be the life of me patches in the sky we used to call them clouds before the bombs went off and canopied us in a toxic shell; the artist swapped his brush for a brick and threw it in tantrum from a distance at some cheesy idyllic canvas and despite our decaying teeth falling out with clumps of hair and skin you...

The landscape has been clouded by dust The skyline vanishes as the definition Between the hope of sky And the dismal reality of the ground Pervades and creeps The red luscious heart Is tempered, not fully destroyed Shadows creep in the debris Thoughts of that past life Flickering in the enforced dusk Memories of suburbia Laughing, chatting, walking Discussing nothing Meaning everything Breathing in the freshest air No dogs...

I am being forced to live With horrible malformations On my body In my body I am stuck with them for years For who knows how long The people want me dead Simply for existing They claim it is in the name of the children But I am a child Being forced to grow up And I am not the only one There are millions of us...

Walk with Me I made my way Through the darkened streets Past the hungry hearts Where the enemy eats I browsed through glass At my dear old friends Where their silent smiles Replace love that mends And I somehow feel Like I'm missing out Like there's something wrong Like I want to shout Your lips don't move But I see your thoughts Like you are crying...

In years to come it might be said, ‘I never realised this is where it led, It just crept up, I just went with the flow Nobody told me how things would go’. Nobody explained what I took for granted Would be taken, by those who commanded That I conform and do not speak out About the injustices they openly flout. I...

The immortal cards of your metaphors haunted me endlessly. Thus, i haven't moved in years. Sitted in a balcony whose walls were extensions of purgatory, here, i fished for mars and mercury as i remembered your mosaic eyes with that licorice scent. Yeah, women don't just need love and care. They got dreams,...

A kaleidoscope of transcendent rhythms Envelop my soul from the well-spring of a mystical and majestic refrain. Notes exalted in the heart of the awakened one Only to be extinguished by the cruel masters of memory and time, which give way to a dystopian perspective incessant and ominous in its vexation. The purposeful formation of songs leave an indelible mark upon a...

Unity is illusionary, A dystopia of thoughts and dreams What is life but a fleeting thing in the grand scheme of things? Freedom so precious and heavily bought cannot compare to one loving thought....
