Long Angering Poems

The finis sing touches touché

Knead dull brows knitted; 
belief system I cogitate 
gearing thee ordinary bipedal hominid 
acquiesces to deck the halls 
of the mountain (dew) king with boughs 
of sister golden haired 
sprinkling angel...

I'm rereading Marshall Rosenberg's chapter on Anger,
The big challenge for nonviolent communicators.

Marshall, a StraightWhiteMale psychotherapist,
repeatedly refers to feeling disappointment
escalating into Loser-shamed anger
sometimes further escalating into defensive
red-hot blaming Rage
risking lose/lose nihilistic outcomes for oneself
and anyone in...

“You play on my every weakness from my past, 
As a heart-wrenched spirit of truth caresses your comrades
They are perturbed as you are by the magnificent light,
To challenge your heart, is to render the fight…”

There once was a west ham 
Went to Hollywood with a plan 
Thackray was her name 
She loved the American cheese game 
Everything seemed fine 
Sorority House filled with cheap wine 
Doing the nickel and...

I sit and pause, looking at the sky blue ceiling above me. White vapour cotton wool clouds
gently float like water lilies on an upside down pond. My humble seat, an igneous rock
from the Devonian period....

When I see and hear,
touch and feel,
something

Somewhere unwanted
someplace uncherished
egocentrism

Making alienating choices
that follow group win/lose competitive norms,
this constellation of nationalistic patriotism's
monoculturing beliefs
and unbeliefs,
anthroprivileged values
and disvalues,
provoke out-raging
hypocritical anger.

It is only in epic transition times
when climatic health and...

Living

Paddling through life’s strong currents
Untitled my existence

A name means not much on Tuesday
Maybe more on Sunday
Or less
A tear defines a being?
How many, how strong, how real.

Feeling exasperated by negativity
Chasing feelings of divinity

Yelling yelling yelling
to the...

Assaulted Peanuts

They rode across the Western Hills,
For the land of Middle Eyed Bong,
To raid the Salted Peanut Trees,
Of King Pod and his merry throng.

Who were they, this reckless band,
Dare to plunder with motley crew.
They knew...

Did you know....
about the look in my eyes?
The ongoing fatigue....
The fact that I sleep more....
the fact that I distance myself....
away from you?

Don't you see,
what you've done to me?
You've taken a loving man,
and you've destroyed his...

Spies, scout out the Promised Land.
Let our eyes see what God has planned.
Never mind what He's already done,
Can we trust the powerful One?

When we saw the Anakites there,
The terror was too much to bear.

D—Does nothing all day, but write annoying poems 
A—And this one’s no better, just bickers and moans
V—Vainglorious imbecile, should be locked in a cell
I—Indifferent to (senior members), oh boy he can tell

Dragonfly meadows luxuriating in the sun
Listening to a rooster I start healing myself
Straw hat waits a few feet away ready for gardening
I am enjoying the breezes, not ready to start.

The all-consuming, everlasting,
endearing, angering, loving, caring,
blind to the bonds of hope,
ignorant to happiness,
yet wanted, needed,
Life.

Poignant it is, for sadness is its counterpart,
yet euphoric it is, for it lies in the blithesome land,
Life.

Taken away, unfairly,
one can...

Palm Sunday

Shopping and hawking, 
purchasing and vending their wares; 
the observant noticed; 
the indifferent paid no mind; 
the powerful perturbed by all the noise
make their way to confront
and charge the man
some call anointed. 

Loud and...

first meeting
by sight has
since blinded
me for she
had a towel
wrapped as

or getting out
of the shower

(to note her
face was pure
no makeup
nor blemish
of an almost
copper toned
color but her
eyes nose and

lips) now common
place yet still
unbecoming

Venue for brooding over Death’s mischief
While equipped with handkerchief…
Tears misty eyes shall unlock
Already by heavy heart unbolted
Over Death’s wasting clock
And angering daring of the Lord’s Promoted!

A masonry of slabs and The marbled
For impassioned messages, not...

Anger burns me to my core,
Blistering every happy part of me left.
The only thing I know of now is hatred, anger, and
Revenge. It claws at me from the inside,
Making me scream out, but that makes...

The Election result is a kill-joy
And has a man made a boy:
A result so blunt I’m trying ketamine;
That should my recovery determine 
My BP should’ve been key issue
And its treatment a Toilet Tissue …

Differing of communication of beliefs 
Escaping rage the only thing that reliefs 
Drunk on your self worth and pride
All your flaws and insecurities you hide 
Practicing selfishness and no empathy 
But then you lie only...

Normalcy is the accepted
and the generally understood
parts of life.
Such as the reflections on a mirror
and the concepts
of time, space and matter.

Normalcy is the societal misunderstandings
changed into angering of
those who cannot comprehend
this meaning of normalcy.

Normalcy is...

There’s a hemorrhage of thoughts and memories killing me each day
Why won’t you just leave me alone

Not a day passes by when you’re not on my mind
How can I...

Hostile,
and angering nations,
the dark winged angel was bent
on destroying entire civilizations,
genocide is what he wanted and darkness is what he sent,
the Earth hung limply in space,
crying, as the dark winged angel was set on
eliminating the...

Earnestly helping those needy, without ever becoming frail

If someone trys to change destiny,
If someone trys to rearrange a path,
If someone sticks their nose into fate,
If someone thinks their stronger than that,
If an adult pitches a tantrum,
Like a two year old child,
And presumes...
