Peril Poems - Poems about Peril

The island once was a sweet emerald blessing with chorus of sugar and spice atop salty sea breeze. A stowaway soon arrived on the scene... A brown snake with a smile of poisonous sheen. At first it sang a duet with the pips and the peeps but it is deaf and only exists to distract and deceive. Soon after, the...

You’re there, right in my face, you’re completely out of place Like a hair found on a steak, you’re a bona fide disgrace You’re an awful apparition and I really want you gone I speak to other people but you’re all they gaze upon I’ve met so many of your kind: and most of them were yella You have...

I never doubted my gliding flight like a baby bird, I have always trusted the free winds of democracy. It offers justice for those whose freedoms are deferred. It grants inclusiveness to those so threatened by autocracy.
