Ordinary Poems

Mystification prevails stupefying yours truly
befuddled, he blindly stumbles along rocky
pathway illusory impediments strewn helter
skelter intangible obstructions hinder access
psychological barricades effective impasse

detains, deters, detours manhood maturation
manumission manifestation materialization
linkedin, when permanent submission arises
beckoning corporeal leaden entity into...

What is true love? It’s certainly up for supposition 
There is no specific answer…no universal definition…

If there is one truth that can be told…when all defining’s done
It’s that true love…whatever that may be…is different for...

I was feeling restless and empty
And I was feeling low.
All I believed was a white paper
An ordinary pen did do.

I wanted to put a question, there
To ask first - who are you?
Fathomless emotions, eager to...

Love
Bold and Bright
Striving and Surviving
Walking with me as a fire that purifies everything

Fierce and bold
Love moves with great force
Love enforces itself beyond the rules
When love suspends the rules
It will go beyond the ordinary!
When love suspends...

The TFL Shaman- A Journey Home.

Raindrops trickle down the misty train windows,
Obscuring views of coloured graffiti,
Works of passion sprayed on to embankment walls.
Bright colours splattered onto neglected structures,
Wild Statements of art,
Arising from the urban ashes...

I ain't gonna brag, boast, blab...,
lest yours truly suffers demise from backstab,
resignedly taking wheel of our automobile
donning, (but NOT trumpeting) 
role as taxi cab

shuttling the missus, (she effusively glad)
to medical appointment
me, the obliging husband
in order...

My poems are not for the rich nor famous,
shall I tell you why?  I believe there're not interested
and that makes me sigh.  

My poems are for the ordinary guy, who loves
reading about events...

Here is a little ditty
  To a poet from the City

She writes of common things
  Yet makes the merely routine sing

Her style is perfect rhyme
  Its beat is mighty fine

A chronicler of...

I am puffed up. I am proud. My nose is cold.
Maybe the coldest in the competition.
I am healthy, and I am ready. Put me in coach.
I am Champ, the number one dog in the country...

She needs a hug, she definitively needs a snug
Every beautiful woman needs to be told
She needs to be hold, Mother behold, 
This is written just for you,
Where do I...

Amazon delivery man tiptoes up driveway
Pretends to not notice my zebra pajamas
When he stumbles over ordinary words
I feel a bit of satisfaction that he cares more than I do.

Finally I am entirely non-socialized.
This was a...

Ordinary days keep going by
although not many of them are fraught with the dangers
that folks often associate with his occupation.
Not to say he has not had his share of those!
One time he was even recognized...

(NOT) JUST ANOTHER PICTURE ON THE WALL 

You came into my life at a time I needed you most
I was so lonely in a strange land
I always dreamed of chasing the sunshine and butterflies 
But...

Used to search for friends online
But now I just don’t have the time
To waste on these most silly tasks,
Cause for what end, my brain asks;
Most likely I shall never meet
A single one beyond some tweet,
For...

He is the one, the only King.
All play-mates leave him quite alone.
No matter what morning doth bring,
He tends to play on his I-phone.
Stabbing red buttons, click, click, click,
He is so regal, and oh, so quick!
The...

On the way, during travelling
There’s a lot of obstacles
Lots of breakers, lots of crackers 
Lots of turns and lots of miracles 
Lots of ups and downs 
Lots of animals and peoples though
And even conditions of...

She is nothing, but an ordinary woman
I learnt she was made from a rib
Looking in debt, she's not just a human
She makes you complete, a special kind of being

She loves like a child and she...

He is very Athletic
He is Confident and Strong

Searing, disruptive, gravitational, 
the face came into focus from too far away,
long before anything at that distance had a right to, 
monopolizing eyes.  

There was an audible gasp from the passersby. 
Or at least...

Voices traverse the medians of my head
or, at least they used to...I thought I didn’t
always like what they had to say...at least
they said something that was interesting
I forgot what I was supposed to remember

A story about a poet, his girlfriend and their pretty complicated relationship (6)
Kurtistani; aab, cddceec, ffb


Your status says you dumped me and at last
you took your first full breath. You look aghast

To firefighters charging toward danger
As everyone else runs the opposite direction
To safety; literally walking through 
Raging fire and smoke to rescue 
Those trapped inside their burning homes 
Thank you
To social workers, youth mentors
Doing their best...

When I speak to you
I should not talk in riddles
Use strange words and phrases
If I mean to communicate with you
In an ordinary way
I have not
I have merely asked you 
To weigh my experiences 
With your...

I was walking down the sidewalk
of a big-box shopping center,
lost in my thoughts, as usual,
barely even noticed the thing.

Tucked back twenty yards or so,
I first thought it was a warehouse,
squat, and ordinary looking,
'Cavalry's Victory Church.'

No...

I’m defeated, I’m pathetic. 
One step forward, two steps back. 
Ordinary circumstances change,
A broken man longing to die. 
The stress passed for him,
Now unto others. 
But life isn’t fair,
Never has been never will be. 
I’ve...
