Monopolize Poems | Examples

Will I ever outgrow this?

What is this ridiculous obsession ~
perhaps a case of simple vanity?

There's so much more to life
than warped arrogant narcicism.

I'm obviously more than
these pesky extra pounds
around my waist and
few deep wrinkles on my face
yet still it manages to monopolize 
my moods and daily thoughts.

I seem to spend my time
reminding mirror and self,
much like repeating a mantra,
that I am the sum total of my years.

Meanwhile I'll wait patiently for this brain 
to start embracing the golden age of wisdom.

Sensuality

Tantalize, Hypnotize.
Insatiable lust fortifies 
Monopolize. Imploring eyes.
Submit to temptation, mesmerize.  
All signs of resistance attain demise.
Utter ecstasy, reaching unreachable highs.

Essence

My feelings are mosaic,
scattered and multi-colored.
There is no set pattern in the artwork
and no meaning in each separate pane.
Only the whole surface memorable.
Each shard of broken mirror
reflects a parse of the whole.
When pieced together the total vision,
though tattered, comes into clearer focus.
Reflection, a study of the conscious.
Moments of time tell no tale.
Vignettes of a larger tome
monopolize space that holds no fullness,
no revelations of intensity,
dramatism, lyricism, poeticism.
I demand everywhereness,
unbound illimitedness.
Totality of my essentialism
wherein I exist in absoluteness. 
my assemblage as a full complement.
Quanta on quanta. Wholeness.
Unequivocally me.

Dont Worry Much

DONT WORRY MUCH
BY TAPIWA N. MASEKO

Don’t worry much 
About his or her love evaporation 
On it don’t make a suicide suggestion 
It is part of your life exploration
Perchance
There comes a good chance
That your heart will catch

Don’t worry much 
When love breach 
Comes before death ends the love match
Maybe you started to date but your hearts do not match

Don’t worry much when love is so brief
Maybe it is giving a chance to date with your to be wife
Don’t worry much when love so soon does end
Maybe it is paving a way for your to be husband

Don’t worry much when your lover is gone
To you it has to be known 
That she is not your heart’s queen
Hence not fit for the crown

Don’t worry much when love from your lover’s heart stops to spring
That is not your heat’s king
Hence not fit to monopolize the sphere of influence
In your heart’s province

Don’t worry much when your lover his or her love to you stops to deliver
Maybe that will be the reference 
From where you will draw every difference
On the qualities of good or bad lover 
Based on your experience

The Agenda

We meet as a committee
The same four people monopolize it
They are the loudest, but not the most intelligent
I have no idea why the other five of us are here

I try to speak a few times but the four speak over me
They are dividing us, more than uniting us
Which is hilarious
When the agenda is how to unite our workers

I want to say something but there is no lull.
There are no pauses.
No way to get in a word let alone a sentence.
I am rolling my eyes, withdrawing now.

We could accomplish so much
If others were willing to listen to others.
Since they are not, we stay sadly divided.
It is as annoying as it is nonproductive.

The Antonyms and the Synonyms

To debate
To rebel
The antonyms monopolize
To express
To support
The synonyms monopolize
And now the child memories both
And never distinguishes between them
The positives from the negatives 
The moral from the immoral
The saints from the devils
As they are forever morally Overestimated by the grown-ups
Until they are vandalism-prone Underestimated
With a future collapse of morality 
In this fabulous and glamorous world
Full of both antonyms and synonyms

No One Listens To Either

Stew used to monopolize the lunchroom conversation.
But now he has competition galore,
Especially if the new guy imbibes in liquorish celebration. 
No one listens to either one anymore

Unfulfilled

As writers, our life is a book of how seductive our image can assuredly be.
It chronicles how effortless it is, to emerge as seduced off of any significant episode because of the behavior our society is nowadays. 
Should we display a mimicry of that novel chapter? 
A spiritual crisis will monopolize every hypothesis of our scripted lives.
It will transpose it to be fabricated and that all there ever were, was genuine emptiness. 
We will then seize a conclusion in our lives wherever conviction accepts its governance on us.
We shall endure through all that, unearthing ourselves in a crudely lit enclosure, convening at a desk with the spotlight on...
                                                                ...a blank piece of paper.

What Do I Mean?

Perhaps a flight in mind shall strengthen thine own end,
Between the birth of blasphemy strung along a river bend. 

Birth besides the breath of death, inhaled into nonce puffs,
Poked between a scatter of stars whose stolen light’s enough. 

To touch grace as if the self is but such a shade of grey,
Of shadows sitting behind trapped light the object traps by day. 

Between light and lack of luminescence sits the shore of worth,
Neither black nor white dare a chance to monopolize its lore. 

For seeing ‘tween the is and isn’t is but a game of chance,
To dance convinced perhaps by blinded reason or deafened parlance.

Hither thither, squirm and slither,
Betwixt the licks of tongues,
Imagined in the mind of whether,
A word is gold or dung.

Read between or outside lines,
Their sight is but is cry,
For an echo of what each inside hides,
Yet screams your truth or lie.

What do I mean?
All, so that it seems.

Silver and Gold

Silver and Gold seems to be one of the best ways to save. Russia and China are trying to monopolize (especially these two commodities) these two markets, in order to take the USA out of the game. For an individual, I would suggest taking a serious look at these two markets of saving. This is an 'Abundant Harvest' time and you and I must take charge of our individual harvest. I personally believe that God wants you and me to prosper and be in health, even as our souls prosper. Don't leave it for others to prosper you; Let God's wisdom, knowledge, and understanding lead and guide you so that you may be in a position to help others that He has allowed to come across your path. That way, the phantoms in your life will not last, it will truly past.

Realize May Monopolize

Realize Men Monopolize

Men must learn and have to realize,
Women they may try to monopolize;
Take advantage of,
And into shove;
Put hands on buttocks and bare thighs.

Jim Horn

Maybe men should start telling their
friends to knock off their bad behavior.
Lets put it this way. If you would not
do it in church, why should you try to
do or think that way any place else.

Blue Sky

show me another color
why do you monopolize the sky?
what truth do you  hide behind your back?
blue sky, style up, 
blue sky open up to me.

Romanticized and Polarized

Restless night under summer skies
Butterflies and time that dies
I can’t exactly vocalize
Or apologize for all the guys

If you were wise you could surmise
The faults in my alibies
Then agonize what that must imply
And recognize how I exercise

Now rise, look into my eyes
Watch the sunrise
Ignore my cries
I’m not just someone’s prize

Don’t jeopardize to finalize
Though I let you fantasize 
Romanticized and polarized
I can only compartmentalize

You monopolize but can’t characterize
Glamorize but don’t analyze
That I can’t moralize this disguise
I’d advise for your despise

Lied and Satisfied

Lied and Satisfied

To people I should never have lied;
With myself become deeply satisfied;
Find out interests of others must yearn;
What you give out back receive in return.

No matter how hard I may have to try
Eventually one day I am sure to die
When my each effort is for the Lord,
Will arrive safely at what I can afford.

Can never afford to lose God's love
Compared to all others is way above
Along with that of Jesus Precious Son
Remembering Their will must be done.

Best parts of life on should be relied
Easiest of those are one's simplified
Knowing items may be predicated
By learning about and being educated.

Investigate brain and all of our senses
God has prepared us to meet suspense's,
Remembering that Him we must not shun;
Monopolize business or others overrun. 

James Serious Mysterious Horn
Retired Veteran and Poet

PS. I am looking for my brush
knowing this poem needs some
brushing up like all of mine do.

Table Hogs

They invade the cafe at first light
Then with latte and laptop held tight
    They seize tables for four
    To let go nevermore
So all others drink coffee upright

With a bored intellectual stare
That one hankers to be Molière
    If he's writing a play
    For a hit on Broadway
Then its plot must involve Solitaire

One's quite the scientific young chap
For which typing is no handicap
   He must write his thesis
   By psychokinesis
Cause the keyboard gets hardly a tap

That one with the big apple fritter
Is researching a mental transmitter
    He's receiving the thoughts
    Of strange cosmonauts
Transferred through Facebook and Twitter

Perhaps you will think I'm pretentious
And more than a little contentious
     But it's just a disgrace
     To monopolize space
And I think that's the general consensus
