Encage Poems


Premium MemberPrison Wallpaper

...Encage us we are of collective souls
Display us in prisoned wallpaper as ghouls
Send us into these sepsis tanks, in tin cans 
in torture dungeons, in faraway lands

...Parental perimeters
Rules upon rules
Encage their helpless children
Who have no other life guides
Until the formative years are over

Children are parental pawns
Humans without power

Am I Light

...Am I light or dispersed star
Scatter or straight to all earthly uneven
Whether the stray comet to unfollow
Chaos or chord to sundry upheavals
Mortal cry pebbles the enshrined path
Luminious moon...

Dove of Freedom

...she could see in their eyes
they looked at her , as if she was a Dove. 
she was the freedom
they wanted to capture , 
they wanted to hide her,
to encage her
to keep her only, only for themselve...

...Locked in the room with the beating heart 
That was in love scratch in a room engaged in walls
That didn't move I was in tombed lost

Of Shoes

...Shoes are
the prison that protects
and they encage our feet
yet they have kind soles which
shield us from the painful outside world

...Who’s in Charge Here?


Rules obscure the boundaries
of nothingness.
Migrant marauders seeking
mindfulness
narrow the funnel’s
outflow
squeezing the contents
to slow-flo.

The Parrot and the Cat

...Both were pets at home—
The cute parrot and the black cat.
We loved both—almost equally.
They too loved us beyond measure,
But didn’t at all like each other.
Each thought that the other was
One...

City Lights

...I live between tonight and tomorrow.. 
I dance upon the valley that separates adulthood from recklessness. 
I find myself in the city lights, 
caught between my mother's nightmares and my freedom....

and by the calm obscure of night,

Premium MemberDoubt the Thought

...Drifting doubts,                
minds encage:
Hopelessness,
Fists of rage!

Pain, sorrow,                      
utter despair:
A place of hell,
Don’t go there!

Take a chance:

...This night, I am trapped behind a face. 
My eyes are barred with tears that blur 
the look in them I would like so much for you to see.
I try a different face, one that splits into a smile at the ...
