Megalith Poems | Examples


Megalith

(center)Visions grow
out of our imaginations like vines.
We want to excavate a bare-knuckled past
with the jaw bones of concussed elks.

A cold moonlight carves them still.
They are the blunt teeth of a low wailing sky,
the works of a hand-crushed faith
far beyond the ken,
of we curious and depthless delvers.

We who stand now non-plussed,
our minds turned around
these mute megaliths
as if we were stone thoughts
upon a grinding lathe
searching
for any distant sense
of - why
while myopically questioning
the source of our
softly rooted selves.(center)

In Dreams

so easy to find
anyone
to meet with,
to speak with,
to agree with,
in order to win
to compete with
even to sleep with;
hower, none is  
inscribed on a megalith

Premium MemberWhat the Cardinal Saw In the Clouds

Is that a Robin in the Nimbus, I see
or perhaps a large chickadee?
Why there’s an assembly of foul progeny,
in that gargantuan, puffball sea,
that seem to be mocking me.

Oh, who populates those thunderheads?
I see not one, cardinal of red.
That vaporous curtain, how it embeds,
images within my head;
I’ve seen this before at Hilton-Head.

I see no ravens, no peacocks or grouse;
in that megalith of cloudy house;
There’s not even a flying mouse!
oh my, those are dark, murky clouds
and I’d best fly off before I’m doused.

Premium MemberThe Hand of Neptune

The hand of Neptune
sprouted from the sea,
megalith,
fortress of stone
and inside were sailors
who’d died at sea;
lonely souls
lost to a watery abyss.

The hand of Neptune
has raised them from
a watery grave;
one last wave
to the bygone hopefuls,
left behind...
remember...

Three For the Mohammedan

The Kneeling Satan
________________

Satan you are nothing
without mans assistance.
Finally genuflecting to Adam
it realizes. 
 



Mohammedan Faces the Megalith
_____________________________

The choice of the free market:
bail it out,
this inherent corruption, 
as it dies
has it not 'spoke'?

Mohammedan questions why the megalith is needed when it is an enigma to those of it...

Every Mohammedan is positive,
positive...
Allah will see it through.

Let the great satan intoxicate without license;
drinking in moderation;
knowing you wont make it:

Excess consumerism
to save\preserve. 

Contemplate the self-critique limited in your responsibility, 
as if saying: come satan consume me
--let me consume you.



Enjoying Liberty with Ha-Shem
___________________________

Liberty, 
Ha-Shem.
The Jew can never taste it,
but the goyim,
at least those of ethical-monotheism 
will have it with you
Ha-Shem.

Gemma Prescott

The club event at the Paralympics, 
Is unique only to the Paralympics, 
And is for people with cerebral palsy, 
Or for the brain injured traumatically. 

It weighs 14oz and is 5 or 6cm in width,
It is made of wood and is quite a megalith. 
It’s end has a spherical ball for you to grab, 
To throw it, ‘cos that’s the aim, the slab. 

The club is an athletics field event, 
But Gemma previously did loudly tent, 
Discus and shot put, and in Beijing 2008,
She came 8th in discus, shot put 7th gate.

At the Deli 2010 Commonwealth Games,
She came third in the shot put’s frames,
But then changed to the club throw gaiters,
To claim bronze in it in London, 20.50m.

She comes from Truro town in Cornwall, 
And the BWAA help her workout, do call;
From Great Sankey High to St Andrews, 
She did go to gain in maths a Masters. 

She was born in September in the year ’83,
And has cerebral palsy just as I do, bree; 
I used to throw the club like her, at school, 
Out the back on the grass where I was cool.
