Humbled Poems

wrong

Have you ever been wrong?
I was wrong.
Ugly, smugly wrong.
Psephologically wrong.
Hit the iceberg,
smoking’s good for you,
the treaty of Versailles,
left on red,
Copernicus, Aristotle, Custer,
wrong.
I’m not claiming an excuse,
wrong.
It wasn’t you,
it was me,
wrong.
Just fricking
kiss a frog
wrong.
Wrong all along,
wrong about the world,
reevaluate me wrong,
wrong, wrong, wrong.
I can admit I was wrong.
Can you forgive me,
can I forgive me,
wrong

This Woman's Power

Blue rivulets of vein on the inside of her wrist,
That shallow valley between her hip 
And the bottom of her belly,
The inside of her knee 
Where her calf met her thigh,

I remember this girl.

Like the fury of a thousand suns
I remember her.
This woman’s power 
To point a finger, or wave a hand,

Disintegrate a life, 
Or

Humbled Greatly

Humbled Greatly (to the point of returning back to you)

Ready or not, there you are
Ready or not, I wear this scar
It’s handsome and beautiful to me
It’s on my sweater of adversity and poverty

Letting go of envy and hatred
Letting go of jealousy and dread
Letting go of lust and temptation
Letting go of the mere frustration 

Humbled greatly
Thank

I Feel Humbled

gorgeous hybrid slipper orchid
with your dainty spots and dots
muted yellow with white ruffles
your confidence commendable
your beauty undisputed
I feel humbled to be entrusted to your care

Reminded and Heavily Humbled

rice and gravy perfectly made
for some reason, the liver goes well with it
i would rather have some neckbones
however, somebody out there and hungry would love to take my place right now

buttermilk biscuits almost puts me to sleep
the honey butter is a pleasant surprise
the shells and cheese with bacon bits, to me, balances it out rather

From Pride To Faith

To learn to be grateful,
to me means to be humbled.
Life has a funny way,
of doing exactly as they say,
have gratitude
and you will receive in magnitude,
lessons on life that hold true.
I have faith in you.

Watch as I stumble,
hear me roll and rumble,
like thunder I am heard,
as I look to the skies
my vision is blurred,
by the mistakes

Weather Beaten, Humbled, Lonely and Blue

morning sun makes me cry
i punish myself for making her go
i guess i was too anxious and too frigidly afraid all at once
i guess i watched too much of a certain thing on tv and read too many thematic books
afternoon sun makes me sweat
i punish myself for scaring her off
i wish i was way more

I Am Humbled

Zionic secret society
Mystical secrets 
lost city of Atlantis
Aliens embarking
What is to become of us?

DaVinci code and psychics 
Rembrandt and Lincoln 
Free Masons and lodges 
Raven terrorizes Poe
I am humbled

Humbled At Rio

high
                                                      

Humbled

amidst the dunes of restless seas
my arms outstretch in sorrowed pleas
beneath the lash of winds i fall
atop the grains of sands i crawl

A Humbled Man

A HUMBLED MAN

A humbled man
Listens to the wisdom
His mother has instilled in him

A humbled man
Will take that wisdom
And apply it to his life

A humbled man
Will learn how to be a man
Through the Word of God

A  humbled man
Lives by the Word of God daily
And not just when he feels like it

A humbled man
Has integrity

A humbled

Humbled

Sitting in my church this morning
Feeling just so lost today
Way in the back with my head down
I started to weep and pray

I said I'm just not worthy enough to be here
After all you've done for me
But this is the only place I feel at peace
Where I feel like I am free

Just let me be in

Humbled Glory

seasons changed, the years have moved too fast

my childhood laughter has long gone silent in the past

a simple man, a simple plan, stay alive to see my children grow

a fear of losing, a fear of weakness, I’ve seen my rhythm start to slow

in the world of uncertain times, they’ve found a memory they must save

forces

Humbled

mountains and valleys, cold streams and tall trees,
corn fields and farm lands, black crows and young bees,

green grass and sun flowers, black bears and ground hogs,
chickens and ducklings, young cats and old dogs,

all of them sharing, this land of plenty, along with the whole human race,
we’re changing the earth, for better we say, but what

Humbled From Above

Humbling are the blessings..
that we find. 
Life is bittersweet..
When they combine.
Beauty's all around us. 
Just take a look around. 
Soon your blessings..
will be found. 
If we live in the moment. 
If we do our best. 
Our conscious is clear. 
When we lay to rest. 
Inside our souls..
if we are guided by love. 
We'll sail up
