Myopia Poems - Poems about Myopia

Myopia

There’s nothing more satisfying -
Than seeing clearly.
The sharpness of the edges -
Cutting through you,
Leaving you starstruck.
Inspired.

Blink and you just might miss it.
Rest and you may never find.

The speed of reality is self destructive.
Slowly, the lines start to blur.
Fluid motion becomes static image.
Your eyes lose focus, the light starts to stir.

You lose sight of what once

The Distant Land of Myopia

Dull tones smear and coddle in a gray muddle.
Cow munch cloud fields.
A reality steeped in prismatic conjecture
until I find my spectacles.

I enter reality, a Columbus arriving in America;
not on the continent, but on some island
and outcrop just short of finding.

Gradually, through the resurrection
of rods and cones,
a little myopia and less blind faith
feeds the expectant mind,
until

Myopia of Life

We are sort of short-sighted
when looking at the  life we live .
That's why we stumbled in time,
delaying progress itself...
Clogging up our mission,
of development... !

bird's high view
    perspective sinks-
'til  tomorrow

Myopia

Sense sight see
Buzz blooms be


Meet mauve moves
Glimpse grand grooves


Lift laughs loud
Pierce pick proud


Joy juice jests
Feel fun fest


Loud lines leap
Dance dream deep


Meet mind mood
Gift great good


Chance crops change
Risk ripe range


Wise word wit
Flame floats fit


Seek sweet sips
Taste time trip


Vet verse vibes
Touch tells tribe

Myopia

Set succinct seek
Meet moments meek


Juicy joy jumps
See succinct sums


Love lifts laughter
Stream sweet saunter


Bubbly beams breeze 
Sample sweet squeeze


Mind meeting mist
Glimpse gainful gist


Prize playful plot
Take timely thought


Hurl healing hurt
Dust dreamy dirt


See sensuous sway
Walk winding way


Breeze bouncing bourse
Craft clever cause


Note noisy nerves
Stretch slanting swerves


Humour hurts here
Set sparkling spheres

A Plethora of Myopia and Hysteria

The truth like stark reality remains immutable
Despite attempts to promote sophisms
Dressed up as verity and verisimilitude at a high table
Where misguided minds dabble at euphenisms and cynicisms

To disembowel and undermine global discourse
Indulging in fallacies
To subvert its course and purpose
Concealed in feeble diplomacies and convoluted obstinacies

Whose flak erupts in fits of anger
In inopportune circumstances
Where the longer
Ego

Sensorial Myopia

Speak if you must in wild card fling,
Each surge now shows how harsh pun cites;
Note crude blind trust as flashback springs,
Streaks of vain flow greet fragile bites;
Obsess the grain of hollow mood,
Rush of fire then swallows all;
Ignite the strain that burns dry wood,
Attest just when strange crackles call;
Life myopic is but a choice.
Meet vague etchings

Myopia

The dim view of confinement
 —the weakest look of all

Myopia

To see
Just be
Now free


To hear
Sync near
Right here


To smell
Charm tells
Grand dwell


To taste
Purge waste
Sheer haste


To touch
Wise nudge
Give much


To feel
Be still
Love heals

Myopia

Start with good heart
Let cheer now art


Start then to yearn
Let poise now earn


Start to know truth
Move act as proof


Start to just be
Kind soul set free


Start with clear choice
Live happy voice


Start to be still
Discern love's will


Start with sure ease
Live soul's calm peace


Start to feel light
Sense wonder sight


Start here and now
Watch grace endow

Myopia

Being bolsters blessings
Subtle spirit staying


Pamper posture primal
Discern discards dismal


Boom boosting blossoms bright
Laughter lingering light


Seeker strokes sound sightings 
Mindful moments moving


Living lovely laughter
Signing simple saunter


Juicy jumpstart juggles
Dancing dizzy dazzle


Silent stillness succinct
Dreamy dazzle distinct


Knowing knowledge kneeling
Purge proud pure pride praying


Urge unseen utopia
Meet mystic myopia


Times telling troubles true
Yes yonder yielding you

Myopia Cured

I must concede, I must confess
My wisdom’s from unhappiness: 
The insight of the salty tear
Stings my cloudy vision clear.
