Long Goner Poems

REGENERATE :

Doctorated at a premium university,
Lost his concentration to absurdity,
Discarded his desire for rationality. 
Sorry for this dude's unfortunate category.
As solemn as his heart aches,
Peace was lost from the face.
Deep troubles that he stake,
Wrong squad...

It is the winter of 1980.
I’m twenty-eight years young, 
Driving a red Mustang with glass T-tops,
Feeling all of my awesome sassiness, from toe
To Afro, when I notice the cards driving ahead of me
Are all slowing...

 It was a crappy, wet, rainy dog-hiding drizzly morning.
Anthony woke up in a bad mood, with a sore throat, that got worse when he looked out the window.
Of course, the obstinate dog...

The real fealty
Fellowship with Deity
Not aseity

Where is His power?
Do not let His will sour
Why you don't flower

Man is not the cure
His righteousness is manure
God-Man must procure

Can't laugh off this One
Demons in the swine are done
To...

I come from the land of coffee,
plastic breasts and nonsense,
drugs and narco past, 
very proudly they'll exalt.

Woman so pretty as blow-up doll, 
got so many surgeries, you don't know what you touch.
Reality or banality, 
inflatable,...

Incredible Product Warnings

By Elton Camp

Far from folly this hair dry warning is keeping
In telling snoozers, “Do not use while sleeping”

Thinking of putting a curl in your colon or tongue? 
“For external use only,” on curling...

A knight still shining...
Because that’s what we need;
Someone to admire... 
When the world’s on its knees.
So much is weighing...
On the shoulders of the story;
And everyone is watching,
For there own personal touch of glory...

Fight the good...

It has me wondering why I really actually wanna know.
How to love me for being me and how to let my walls down.

Unshackle my verse: The People V. Poetry

The judge says, 
“Will the defendant please rise”
Intently, I stare into his eyes, 
was once the apple, but now despised. 

“Poetry, you have been charged with multiple counts of...

Is mother still alive, brother?
Is she still breathing as a woman?
Why is she in the darkness crying?
Has the power outrage gotten here?
Has the fuel scarcity made the hospital
Not to put on their clamouring Gen?
What eyes...

Piles of clothes and washing too
Usually she would be preoccupied
And the children will have a day...

Should earth not be healed; won't all wish hell? 
The pleasure taken indoor is off...

This is why I keep to myself
Cause if I didn’t
Life would be finished
And all would see and be all up in it

So at times I do regret it
But don’t ban me ‘cause you can’t stand...

Men cannot be trusted
emotionless and hardened,
They tend to be aggressive
Then thoughtlessly are pardoned.

Promiscuously driven 
With ego swelling large, 
They're loud, endowed and over proud
And in your life they'll barge!

They see vastly different
They see a girl-...

They said to me,
make a wish under a violet sky
and that wish will come true...
never did I hear such a lie so true.

I left such a wildness
as those girls lost their ways,
mother and father shot...

Blood stained into lands being conquered
Blood on this can of Monster
Blood in the water
Blood pooling and congealing from all the slaughter
Blood hitting close to home,  when you got a squatter
Blood whether the weather turned...

This goes out to whoever
I got to do better
And keep it together

Blinded by it
The reason why I buy it
Can't deny it
I continue to try it
For a period of time, I was able to fight it
Gone...

There’s a certain feeling 
When you close the door behind you. 
Freedom that comes 
Only with emotional safety. 
I don’t know where 
I don’t know how 
Not ever sure why

People say my poetry is mostly doom and gloom
But I’m a funny person and I’ll prove it to you soon
My wit and sharp ripostes are a constant delight
