Instincts Poems

Maternal Instincts

The crow dived in one full swop
A chick to be picked for lunch for her chick's
So the mother hen in a daring response 
fluttered her wings to meet the crow in mid air
To redeem her chick's
This is maternal instincts in foreplay

Instincts or spirituality

My burning heart is broken forever —
it's beyond my melted power to fix it clever.
My dark thoughts don't help me recover.
My mind can't see clearly, over and over,
wandering off into blurred endless dreams.
Only my mortal body knows why it lives,
when my soul stilled and vanishes slowly.
All I've got is my body under a spell of

Hoist With His Own Petard

He who disregards truth and justice
Will sooner or later go the whole hog;
His bestial appetites and habits,
His love of cruelty and power eventually will take over
Perhaps without him ever realizing the danger.
He is not only beyond the control of others
But beyond his own control.
He does no good ( like rainless clouds or fruitless trees,
Heaping abuse

Primal Instincts

  An Autumn wind blew an acorn
   from the paws of a squirrel
  right into the pond 
   without so much as a twirl

 Then the wind knocked down a sapling 
   that had recently sprouted
 cackling madly as a witch
   at the foliage it

My Animal Instincts

D-Don’t feed elephants, they’ll take over your room 
A-Avoid crocodile tears, they might also mushroom 
V-Visit your grand-mere she’s not a wolf in costume 
I-If you meet 3 pigs on the way, go home use zoom 
D-Don’t take me for a chicken, I came from a womb

Followed Instincts To Become Me

i appreciate the real me for living her truth
for showing me hobbies I no longer want to do
giving me passions that became obsessive
introducing me to poetry, cartooning, drawing

I congratulate the real me for successfully eliminating jobs
All together I walked away from twenty-eight that were not for me
I left some before noon the first day
following my

Fear Keeps Him From His Instincts

Oranges pinks and reds swirl within Galmanger’s heart
He feels a kinship to those he is supposed to torch
This rarely happens, but he has opened his chakras
He has been listening to the pulse of the world source
What good is a fire dragon if he develops empathy?
Will he be kicked out of the tribe? He stamps his

Savage Instincts

killed on suspicion of theft

When the Instincts Kick In

a sexist scandal 
a single feeling
of sobering sickliness 
a shriek 
a stranger springs onto me
skin slides across skin 
scraping and scratching 
struggling and screaming 
nobody comes to save me 

a shard of slippery glass
snatched in a split decision 
a slash
scarlet splatter spews along the silent street 
the struggle subsides 
moral costs of survival 
have never

Young Rookie Cop and Her Instincts

Young rookie cop was horrified at the old lady’s truth. 
She wanted to put on the cuffs and haul her in.
Wait a sec, the veteran sergeant said. This is Auntie Ruth.
She might not be the culprit. She has an identical twin.

So let’s go get the other one, said the rookie, Ilene.
Not as easy as you

The One

Butterflies in my stomach heart beating fast
Temperature is rising as he walks past
Hesitating to turn but eager to shout
Mouth open wide yet nothing coming out

Such foolish antics potentially I could have done more
He caught my eye that I know for sure
Could he be the one that I need to find out
I turn around and follow
