Hysteria Poems - Poems about Hysteria

Am I here, am I there ... Am I screaming everywhere, Can't get in, can't get out Snared by what it's all about Beats of blue-green 'round my head Share the space with rockets of red, Splashes of yellow paint pour ... Black and white reassures me more Louder and louder, nearly deaf Are there any sane one's left?, Just what is it,...

Lost in the crowd but I can only see you The outside world falls into the background I succumb to the frenzy all around me feeding off your energy I'm infatuated with the way those nimble fingers tickle those strings I laugh at the gentle violence nudging my thoughts Wishing it were me These vibrations fill my body...

My gorge rises, my blood boils. Exasperated I bite my envenomed tongue. Incensed I spout mad words that have no meaning defending my attitude, maintain my poise.

For if I erupt, then there is no going...

I shiver with excitement shaking with laughter as the droplets fall from my eyes. the speakers shriek again but I don't notice. So stuck in...

What about China? When they compel you to stay home, imposing cloaks on nature's beauty as a fellow friend becomes a foe and the media unhorsed propaganda Can we all all ask what about china? When old Brit's prime minister masked tyranny by orders confining millions to solitude for the fear of his fickle frame susceptible to the...

The storm was a net of butterflies let loose in me, and the dark was you. I look back now at the natural seduction, how you brought me a key to open the right kind of love in my heart, only to be and how I was just entirely too much You glued your lies to my lips because you feared your...

I'm sleeping amongst mass hysteria Compulsed with my own mania Are we living in a fallen world Is it a sign of the end, settled O' Corona, Corona Please go away I full of snoot and decay Don't know what to say It’s scary, snarly I cough, rasp, wheeze Speak hoarsely I'm old and weary But none the wiser I hear my angel whisper...

EPIDEMIC NOT ENDEMIC More and more people worldwide, Are becoming aware of what could, Become an international crisis, As a virus seems to be spreading, Many have sadly died, What are we to do or rather should Do, our freedom will fearfully be minus, The lifestyle we knew, will be changing, Countries are somewhat more allied Taking heed of safety regulations for the good Of their...

Strawberry Fields Forever I have used words and phrases from the Beatles song ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ in order to create the Desired effect in this poem. How beautiful it must be, Let me take you down, Just you and me, For no one else is In my tree!

The truth like stark reality remains immutable Despite attempts to promote sophisms Dressed up as verity and verisimilitude at a high table Where misguided minds dabble at euphenisms and cynicisms To disembowel and undermine global discourse Indulging in fallacies To subvert its course and purpose Concealed in feeble diplomacies and convoluted obstinacies Whose flak erupts in fits of anger In inopportune circumstances Where the longer Ego...
