Long Breaking rules Poems

2011, the modern year, coming closed
         in 2012, and passive fat assed American apathy
strangles feeling from the esophagus, **** it.

    I choke, cough out...

Verse A:

Oh how you've honed rebellion, made an art of breaking rules
Just to garner my affection, but I didn't have the tools
(And I never suffered fools - no I never suffered fools)

I loved you with...

Twisting in the winds of pain
Hung by unseeing hands
Crying to the empty night
Hope has long since abandoned me
To desolation’s cold embrace
Find solitude in numbness
As what once brought happiness
Leaches away my joy
Regrets chase me
Across this barren...

You pulled apples from the tree.
A tree that was not yours or mine.
“They aren’t ours to take. Let’s go,” I plead.
But you just threw a smile at me that was so divine.

I couldn’t say no...

‘Out’-discipline!
“Teacher, beaten by student.” “Student stabs another in squabble.” 
“Teachers found without Lesson Plan.” “Noise level unbearable.”
Unfortunately, these would only be a few of the sordid headlines;
 To duly ‘captivate’ readers, if every school had...

Those who are now elderly sit and reminisce
of sweet idyllic days which often they miss.
Sitting as families in beaming abodes
whilst a flickering fire dances and glows
Cosy nights in with cards and knitting
and days in the...

*************

Having never studied poetry, but composed and wrote it most of my adult life, in the Army, commissions for lovesick, homesick mates. In civvy street, mainly for my wife, the odd commission for enstranged lovers,...

To the facts we often would allude
Not only are you vulgar but so crude;
(Also vain if you want to add that.)
What you did thought was implicit
To everyone else seemed to be illicit.

Was obscene, absurd and...

i love ice cream in the summertime while sitting on the edge of the lake with my feet wading in the water then catch a breeze so gentle and sweet - I pray another one...

She's oil in the water, that refuses to blend
With a hair tie on her wrist, embracing the wind

Pleasantly dowdy, breaking rules out of spite
Above laws and limitations.  She knows when she's right 

Don't go...

Love makes you stupid.

It makes you wait
by the phone, 
praying that it rings.
It numbs the annoyance, 
‘cuz when you hear them,
it’s all worth it.

Love makes you stupid.

It has you commit
before you know all the facts,

We are watching TV news indicating catastrophes, people
discriminating and being prejudiced against others while
sinning, doing bad things, telling lies and environmental
problems created at Camp LeJeune.
Breaking rules should be in there somewhere.
Why do people write, "Letters...

My mind is haunted as of this moment
I'm not insane but I'm getting weird feeling
Oh I'm loving the idea of you and me 
Lie down with thought of insanity
Take off my dreams and put me...

Dreams from the distant past calling me
how can I stop in the middle of this race?
In this crowd I am just another face
of losing dreams which I once loved to see,
no looking back we're now...

Walking through the crowded halls
Posters stuck up on the walls
Talking to friends till we're almost late
Trying to remember that project due date
Cheering loudly at every football game
Trying to not get caught breaking rules we think...

noisy toys and building bricks
girls and boys in football kits
playground fights homework books
summer nights disprooving looks
growing pains and butterflies
test and gains that qualify
leaving school hunting work
breaking rules going berserk
frequenting pubs getting drunk
discover love and have...

A spark ignites, ideas take flight,
In minds that dare to shine so bright. 
Colours swirl and rhythms flow, 
As seeds of inspiration grow.

Outside the box, we love to think, 
You are connecting dots with invisible...

I am eating lasagna
In an unfinished room
By myself all alone
Music plays backwards
In the absence of moonlight
Middle of day
Somewhere else
I can't see the stars
And I think about Harry
Just ent'ring the bank
Overwhelmed
Excitedly taking it in
Thirty more minutes
Of...

Things that came unexpectedly
Things that hurts so deeply
Things that keeps you in vain
Things that runs faster than the train

Hopelessly hiding what I really feel
Haunts me like a untold broken will
Changing hearts just for you 
Doing...

Breaking A Rule 

Rules, yeah they have to be followed 
But I really start to choose 
To get answers to what happens when you break a rule 
First thing , you own up to it...

Dear poetry

By street cries

Show and prove how words are tools that manifest moods

So i adopted the trade ways like babies from test tubes
Started to rescue...

…pick one
Triden or Bump
The or wins every time
All the new politicians

Tell you what it is a good strategy 
Less to rule

No kings in Scotland

Drones


Unmanned keen aerial spy
In its solitary sail above high
Unmanned menacing drones
Breaking rules and human bones,

While overheard they romp
On beat with unfettered pomp
That reduces man to a chick
On the mercy of Hawk’s beak...

Is it a cure...
