Megalomanic Poems | Examples


Premium MemberA Privilege

Imagine that there is something beyond imagination

an oxymoron of course but a real task nevertheless

There may be no God not even spirituality suffices

but the whole is much greater than the sum of all parts


The Universe grants freedom from self-righteousness

offers me to let go off megalomanic delusions of grandeur

makes my light shine in illumination and its shadows

paints a picture with no centre other than kindness and love


Unorthodox and conforming to nothing but compassion

the tiny wee little Me takes its right place in the crowd

at liberty to breathe feel think and reason for meaning

to resonate reflect condense for a moment in infinite time


Like a novel it reaches out from beginning to the end

states a point here and there and connects small dots

that swell into an epic and ephemeral narration to tell

soon forgotten but a blob on the pages as good as it can


Another book will take its place on the library shelf

liberated from its companions to start a new venture

to reconstruct and make its mark on literal essence

Fly free my soul and expound my purpose for free

Theomania's easy to see
in one holding the presidency.
When megalomanic,
his tweeting gets frantic.
All his money could buy therapy!

At least now there's hope if you vent
whenever you have discontent.
Should you think you are God,
though you're only a sod,
you could one day become president.

A Dog's Tale

Except for an occasional
firm tug on my bristly neck,
daily walks were enjoyable.
I really don’t mind, what the heck
I get to sniff the things I love:
Poop, poles, an occasional *****;
A master I think the world of,
freedom to stop and quell an itch
all my needs in one walkabout.
My master’s a different story:
If barks were words I’d state flat out,
Your megalomanic fantasy
Is just that, doomed to fail,
Thus leaving you unsatisfied
fruitless as me catching my tail.
