The Miles of Smiles
If I can walk ten thousand miles
Just to see your sunlit smiles,
I’d die ten thousand more times
Maybe, a billion times per chime; this time, I’ve committed love crimes
If I can walk infinity times infinity,
Would I...

Everything Will Be Awright
Bled for you, babe
Save me from the demise of me
Said too much, babe
Dead inside, don’t seek me…I’m not wise like you are, baby
Everything will be alright
As long as I seek the light
I want to lift...

The Christmas Mule
So many years had passed, he was the offspring of a horse and ass.
Quickly discounted, the young mule was sold over and over again
until he finally ended up here, in Bethlehem.
Tethered to the...

Our Political Participation
I've come to say a few things about our political involvement,
Important is this because our future is on the edge of precipice,
And is dangerously tilting irreversibly towards enslavement,
If urgently not arrested we pay the...

Life and Times of the Manila Folder
Manila folder,
Growing older,
Lying on table,
Watching other files,
Grow bolder,
It was earlier looked upon,
Now ignored,
As if it was dead,
After a bloody gore,
They had submerged in its custody,
A lot many papers and notes,
Carrying dates and events,
About people and...

Blind Faith
Blind Faith
So, even the expression, blind faith, makes my blood boil.
I've had one too many conversations with "intellectuals" who disdainfully look down on us believers for believing in a Creator. They imply by the...

Ant Sense
When I was a young child I studied ants
I loved their formation on ground and plants.
Like tiny soldiers lined, disciplined well,
They worked hard all day, from what I could tell.
Their strength was awesome, things...

The Haunted House
The Haunted House
An aging Victorian graphite three story house sat on a
promontory, lonely, deserted, weathered and forlorn.
Broken windows showed signs of cruel abuse from
passersby amused by throwing rocks we surmised.
This skeletal shell of...

A Tale of Tattoos
It starts with just one,
Just a small one,
A delicate pinkish shooting star
Chosen painstakingly from the flash on the wall
While a girl with blue hair and a nose ring
Watches disdainfully from behind the counter.
It takes more...

Lend An Ear, My Cavalier
I have forfeited every inch
Of your bitter blow
And you have reaped the profit.
You took my discretion for granted
And placed me inside a cage.
You withered,
Disdainfully,
In an open page.
The palate of your face
Eating at the sky
And delivering...

Dead Cellphone
Yeah, I think it's a pity I dumped her in the wilderness
Strange things often happen in life, you know
Time and again we met together, talked of common interest
Raised the same slogans (you guessed right,

Once Upon a Time
Once there was a girl, with stars and moonbeams in her eyes,
Who sat with me beneath a willow tree.
She gently held my hand,
Caressed and kissed me, and
Vowed that she was mine and loved me so.
How...

Spiteful Minds - Edward Mccormick
"Spiteful Minds"
by~ Edward McCormick
Disdainfully negotiating gain,
The spiteful mind their heart's desire alone.
An obvious destruction they attain
Through dialogue with underlying tone.
A tiny drama brings about an end.
In spite of mind,...

dredging up the strangest and most beautiful objects from the depths ...

The Pharisees
When some men of faith brought a paralytic to be healed,
Opening the roof when they placed his bed before Jesus
When the forgiving grace of the almighty was revealed
The fault-finders placed before him, their malicious thesis

Until Forever
Until pureness and honesty pass,
Leaving pain and aggressiveness as the dimmed lights,
For the intricate works of the corrupt dark world,
Foreshadowing the collapse of the protective shield,
Covering my emotions…
Until timelessness and eternity pass,
Taunting and mocking me...

This Game
This Game
With an inarticulate cry of rage,
one young Vampire lunged at his victim,
they grappled,
tangled,
and continued to struggle.
The human defending himself,
the Vampire learning to hunt,
to kill,
with a hunger to fulfill,
as the need for human blood...

Trigger Happy
When she picked up her first gun,
she felt sheer exhilaration
When she took the first shot,
she felt supreme elation
She craved caressing the cold power
in her hand
She loved pressing the trigger
again and again
Metal orgasm was better than...

Theres a Fly In My Soup
As I sit and try to imagine,
I look and find another distraction,
find there's a fly in my poetry soup,
quite like a Michael Phelps swimming laps
around like an Olympian champion,
he must think he's pretty cool

I Bred a Rose
I bred a rose of color rare
And gave it to my lady fair.
She looked at it disdainfully
Then, laughing, tossed it back to me.
No man, she said, her heart would hold
Lest he applied for it with...

Cat Bugs
This house has ghost cats.
Visitors twitch
as invisible whiskers brush their cheeks.
I talk faster; try to distract them,
or look out the window
as if seeing something really interesting.
Guests don't come around much anymore.
Maybe they think I have...

Dorothy Outfoxes Pucks and Picks
Pucks and Picks two skinflints
Quietly and disdainfully blacken sequins
With their dour, disastrous ways.
Dorothy, one sequin got away.
She was the shiny blue one.
She happily quit running after realizing
How slow they were
Pucks and Picks sent the...

Un-Feathered Nests
The geese have migrated
taking many songbirds with them.
Some Canada Geese
have chosen to stay in the parking lots
by the busy shops, ensconced
within their un-feathered nests.
All day they direct the traffic,
attack cars if they come too near.
Night...
