Long Backed into a corner Poems

I owe you an apology. Many apologies. 
I'm sorry for blocking you. 
I'm sorry for not being there.
I'm sorry for not being ready.  
I'm sorry for everything. 
It's my fault. All of it. 
I'm...

The pieces set, black against white, the game played a thousand times before
I move the pawns to block the enemy line, and...

It's all smoke and mirrors,
Cocooned in magenta mascara and lavender lace,
The ever-elusive ivory stag now backed into a corner,
Delighting in an artificial solitude's icy embrace,
Brandishing a jaw of pearls to sheathe the dagger up her...

Penelope’s in a hopeless quandary, backed into a corner.
She enjoyed the flirt of youth. Had no one warned her?
She rejected freedom of reflection. ‘Who’s she? ...not a saint.’
Penelope painted on her face, mirror-perfection - faithfully...

THE MEDIA SHOUTS AND CLAIMS.
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY OUT.
I AND MANY OTHERS,
SEEM TO HAVE SERIOUS DOUBTS.

POLITICAL PRISONERS VS.
POLITICAL SLAVES.
WITH THEIR UNENDING MANDATES
WAVE AFTER WAVE.

WITH NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE
AND NO RESEARCH FILES.
TO UNCOVER, 
THE NAKED TRUTH
WILL...

The experts were angry at first, but by the time they thought to invite me to the party all three were livid.

The US Election Blues

Two heavyweight fighters
standing in a ring
who’ll make it to The White House
who’ll get the final swing?

i used to know love
take her out and tell her how i feel
promise the world 
over the moon
laughing into a sunset
Televisions for mirrors

hy does my skin feel so cold
A stray thought
resting on my lonely mind
The feeling of warmth 
fleeting, vanished along with the rolling clouds
Is this supposed to be a paradise
or a living nightmare
Once the shadows part...

NEXT QUEET
10-18-2015 by jr Thornton
“Did you mean all those?
All the ones built to hurt.”
Is there form, plan, or purpose?

Maliciously never-ending
Devoid of way...

So near so far doesn’t matter 
Hanging my head in shame 
Been to the track once more 
I’m addicted to the flame. 

I gaze upon fortunes woe
Indifferent to my pain 
Chosen by a path of...

What would sly look like
would there be any foxiness
and the 
what image brought to mind
a million clones
with black tie and white shirts
over used and unpretentious
would unused words
believe they are better
than the rest
Exquisite a diamond wall

Dark clouds rise in the skies with the high pitch
of loud thunder
Even the old to the young can't escape the destruction
of society's outrageous plunder.
Shredded clothes, 
Aching bones, 
and ripped souls leaves physical impressions of a...

Run all you want you won’t get away.
Keep chasing your tail, same stuff different day.

Backed into a corner – cower and moan, you’ve blocked yourself - scream- deny all 
you can.
But you’ve done the deeds...
