Hamilton Poems - Poems about Hamilton

History has its eyes on me
The weight of ages, a ghostly gaze, A thousand stories in a timeless maze, They watch me now, from shadows deep, A silent vigil they forever keep. History's breath, a chilling breeze, Rustling through the ancient trees, Their eyes, a mosaic, sharp and keen, Observing every act, every scene. Not just the heroes, bold and bright, But common souls, within the night, The struggles faced,...

The Soundtrack of Hamilton
The soundtrack of “Hamilton” Gives me a lift Which is better, to me, Than a typical gift. From the opening chords (Which repeat several times), I am steeped in delight By the music and rhymes. Sitting still’s not a choice When the rapping begins And no matter your tastes, Every listener wins. If you’ve somehow missed out, Please take me at my word For the “Hamilton” songs Are...

Premium Member Untamed Heart - a Collaboration With John Derek Hamilton
My untamed heart, ruled by unruly wants Sometimes in tatters, but flatters and taunts I played at life... but life played me harder, Lived bet to debt... in life's Russian roulette Chorus I'm like a ghost ship, stranded on breakers searching for life, without any light I rummage through... my Psyches ruins Dreams duel disasters, but give up the fight I place a wager... speed into danger My foolish...

Afterglow
Simply Savagely Scathing,  Your words how they bleed Spewing bitter astringent, still Assimilated by a voracious, vampiric me. You- Dictate, Mandate, and Inundate Like an immortal; Dispensing positional orders. With acrid tones, and Gaslight  Introductions. Direct the Directives Direction Push an Inclination infection. Insult my habitation, Maliciously. But listen- All that Vicious Talk And rhetorical, vanilla-scented chalk Can't hide your Sinister hating. Marinette ain't making it, Imitating...

Premium Member John Hamilton
John is a Christian man, a philosopher, and a poet that offers his talents, beliefs, and insights to all honestly, openly, and with a compassionate, understanding heart, never preaching, and yet, sure of his convictions. His quote, "Sunsets are biased, because, they are naturally one-sided," allows us a glimpse of his good-natured hyperbole and dry humor. More...

Hamilton On the 4th
“Hamilton’s” the show to watch On Independence Day. If you’ve not seen it, find out if You can concoct a way. On Broadway, it was magical – No one would disagree – But what appealed to me the most Was, oh, the poetry! The acting, music, costumes, sets Were all top-notch, indeed, Yet all those rhyming lyrics must be Brilliant to succeed. And that they...

Our Times-Sign of the Times
Soon everything we know will rapidly be changed Into an unfamiliar landscape and a worldwide shooting range Guns pointing in every direction and at every town No inspections will be allowed and best not show a frown Orwellian decrees are issued, as government is a fail False leaders arise; resorting to trickery and blackmail Threat of war becoming constant with each...

Hamilton, the Play
All the buzz is justified; If I’d said different, I’d’a lied. A slice of history unfurled Like nothing else that’s in the world. Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote The lyrics, book and every note Of music, all in hip-hop time With such creative, perfect rhyme. For everyone who has the chance, Go see it, for it will enhance Your theater props, with bragging rights (And more if you’ve...

The Revival By Michael Byron Dale Hamilton
I have felt the love I have felt the hate I have felt the life leave my heart I have felt the ones I loved betray me I have felt ones care from afar I have always wanted a few besides me Without them I am nothing Whether you are there from afar Or walking by my side Whether patting my back Or giving me...

Layer upon layer then a surprise inside Poor little Vicky has gone and died Big plastic trash bags and the face they hide Poor little Vicky has gone and died Evil man, evil man has chopped her up Poor little Vicky was left to rot Smothered her in plastic and threw dirt on top Poor little Vicky was left to rot People are...
