Insignificance Poems - Poems about Insignificance

I’m not an artist I’m not a genius I’m not the largest or coming of Jesus I’m not even close Or even at most I’m just a ghost and I’m draping my clothes I’m just a debt Another regret I’m just a notion that you should forget Just forget my face I don’t have a place I’m just an outline that will be erased A needle in...

The meekly mollified man subtly sews his silently simplistic sights upon reality’s rickety rufescent light . Always left lifelessly looming beneath the brain’s bashfully blurred background of benevolence. Frankly flickering out the faded flaws whose firm factual flames of effectiveness have by now grimly grown themselves out of Life’s limp lashes of limelight . Solemnly swearing their silent silken seas of sorrow into the sulking sands of insignificance ....

These ragged shards of breath, catching in my lungs with grasping fingers of jagged glass Howling tormented wolves in my mind, clawing and shredding the last remnants of the last Desperate attempts to live, temerarious in the quest to quench their thirst with blood Monsters lurk in the shadows of my eyes, hungry for my conscious suffering No rest,...

Late in life I struggle against my insignificance When I should enjoy the freedom from performance before an audience. Applause is happiness but if they withhold applause, embarrassment. When Da Liu put me to work crunching hexagrams and spreadsheet numerology Instead of ghost writing his books about t’ai chi for longevity I was humiliated but...

INSIGNIFICANCE On earth’s unimagined vastness we creep Yet unaware that she swims an even vaster pool Whose abysses can not be plumbed deep By the longest line of reasoning or rule Each man tills his small part of the orb But the plough merely scratches the surface Leaving her with no permanent mark on her robe Pyramids and walls ...

The Owl of Insignificance It happened on the eve of May From a dream awoken so tense As the pounding of his lonely heart Brought rhythmic relief to the silence As he listened to the beating thoughts Ideas began to make sense So he pondered puzzle pieces All the what’s and why’s of whence But some things don’t have answers So he laid there in...

After all the climbing efforts to capture, An elusive view of that starfish, You speak of the beauty around us, This is it, the sense of place. Here, I find.
