Policed Poems | Examples

Reclaiming the absence

To be a good father You already have to be a good man But apparently he couldn't be either guess it was just easier For him to be just like his father

Him being a black father Made it harder The stereotypes That followed him around That policed He probably internally agreed He felt it must've been better for him to leave Or Maybe he just doesn't love his kids enough to stay It must've been his generational way

His children understood As best as they could That his father was ed up They just thought he would give them a better childhood

They weren't mad just disappointed They felt neglected Felt unprotected By someone who was supposed to love them They felt stupid They felt empty, like they shouldn't have existed

As they grew up They saw all the other present fathers The pain Of it all began to hit harder They began to wonder If they even mattered

As the years continued on That pain grew stronger Their fathers absence Constantly haunted them Their self hatred grew deeper No amount of therapy made it easier They would always feel inferior

They would never forgive They would never forget

Who Killed First?

Who Killed First?

If it happened that there was no Fall,
Then altered would be the nature of all
Things.

Does it mean that birth would be painless?
Because if no fall, then Eve was blameless.
And what of the serpent condemned to crawl?
Would it still have legs and walk with a spraul?
Maybe the snake would still walk,
But no babies for Eve, at sex she would baulk.
Being an innocent, she knew not of sex,
So that would not matter, it isn’t complex.

Vegetarians they’d all be,
And never want to see,
The killing of an animal for food or glee.

But keep in mind, the first to kill,
Was God, Himself. It was His will,
To cloth the people that He policed,
But did not care anything about the beast,
He killed.

backyard helicopters create
ass-sending noises that... 
disturb whole neighborhoods

so...threats of disturbance are policed...

america blocked 'russian missiles to cuba'
there was a stench to their presence...
that would keep u.s. citizens awake

now...threat's of disturbance get policed again and...

the russians blocked nato nukes from their backyard
missiles carry a stench that scream their presence...
with such disturbing constant political threats

that...the media has replaced tiring virus reports with...

a cowboy style political saloon poker-game stand-off
with excessive soundings of hollow overblown threats...
all because the ukraine leader is a former comic

thinking...his nato and missile talk would be taken lightly...

The Patrol

We booked on the radio as was the way
And out the station we drove away
The radio prattles its continual banter
As we policed the streets at a slow canter

There were disturbances some loud but not unique 
And pub brawls to make the night complete
There were shoppies on day shift
With neighbourly disputes sorting out the grift

Throw in a Coroners at some one’s demise
Taking a report through the rels cries
Until the end of the shift comes round
For a quiet drink and to talk it all down.

Increased and Policed

Increased and Policed

Amount of worry we had increased, 
And for weapons area was policed; 
Much discovered; 
Evidence uncovered; 
Together problem had been pieced.

Premium Member Imprisoned Fact Remains True

Destroying liberty 
takes away all self respecting good 
Indoctrinating children into false beliefs 
positions of power overturning values

Removing the way of the cross 
from teachings underhanded acts 
displayed against peace creates division 
Replacing it with false doctrine
Shame I say on our state bodies 

Unholy are the ways of pride 
blind bats of envy filled with greed kills soul's
With your riches obtained by lies and deception 
hidden by corrupt lawmakers the truth reveals 
secrets a dark side yet to be addressed and policed

Heritics against the temple of our Lord's words 
all the virtues of heaven are being removed
slowly as morals are the twisted visions 
against a familie's respect and true guardianship 
views on rearing has now come with a controlled status tag

Spear of destiny 
I will kneel to serve you only 
I pray for the white horsemen to come back 
and cleanse this world of its sickness 
that plagues our future generations
through ugliness lust holds position over truth

The Doves

The doves arrive,  gentle creatures
 heads bobbing as they walk,
  plucking stray seeds blown free across the ground.
Paired matches, clutching together
 in the softly shadowed rays
  of early morning sun to welcome the day.
Peerless counterparts,  solitary and alone
 scanning the demarcation zones
  marked and policed by energetic squirrels.
Boundaries are set, locked in place
 periphery margins of time and space 
  held orderly by the season.
Winter, spring, majestic intertwined interludes
 painted purple, black, blue, creamy orange
  by intermittent cold and warmth rising and falling.
Signs of the time, forewarning harbingers
 of time cycled in conscientious discreteness
  dandle acclimation to greet the age of change.
The doves come, peering through the gleam
 of light and its reflected mirrored surfaces
  long methodic glances at the systematic march of time.

A Smidge of Sacralidge

A Smidge of Sacrilidge

A smidge of sacriledge
Some sin thrown in
Then mixed properly fixed
Ate it sin commit
Some say throw away
One day ate anyway
Can't stop saw cop
Hadn't hidden God forbidden
Received reprieve did leave
Poems more for shore

Maybe my new style poetry will 
deserve a free premier membership 
to Poetry Soup. Not only that, I just
completed my 3,000th poem and am
now number 6 out over 30,000 poets.
This should be worth something you 
would think. I think on brink, was lost
came acrossed Something unexpected
maybe misdirected hit hard poems marred
Was policed writing ceased. Ho ho.

Days of Life of Trump

Days of Life of Trump

As days of Trump's life increased
He became more of a filthy beast
Some say that they even caught him
From bottom of barrel trying to skim
All of his area should be well policed.

Premium Member Sin City

The Skyscrapers are so high; they seem to pierce the cerulean sky
Transpired by all those neon lights
So many have succumb to the city’s plight
People are distraught by the polluted stench of death in the air 
Murder rate ever-increasing; does anyone care?
Concrete high rises and towering buildings form a ghetto
A utopia of poverty where drug addiction has control
The name of the forgotten enshrined by graffiti on the walls
A place where personality and pride stands tall
Cornered lives where fast money is the name of the game  
A con, a player, and a hustler is still one in the same
On every street corner there is a church, a carryout, or a bar
A city that’s besieged by police brutality that has gone too far
Sedans and SUV's windows rattle from the loud deep-toned songs of Hip hop
The sound carries for avenues and blocks nonstop around the clock
The city never sleeps, so the crime never stops 
Because there are criminal infested streets, policed by even belligerent cops
Weed smoke fumes subtlety filling so many lungs
The futile hum of engines at traffic lights becomes the city song
In this place of indignity there would be no pity
Welcome to SIN CITY

Wet My Entire Pants

Wet My Entire Pants



If into your back I sank my claws

Do you think you could give to the cause

After both of my claws were released

Would your dead body be properly policed.



If some body must love another body sometime

Where and when in am I supposed to chime 

And after long look I must be admitting

None of your poor clothes are properly fitting.



After finding myself out on a long limb

Should we do the shimmy, boogaloo or swim

Or trying to do some other song and dance

After we did a duet wet my entire pants.

Chaos and Control

In nature's ebb and tide
One thing for certain resides
Chaos at the foundation and flow
A continuous creation abides

Numerical desire lies
Where expression is clipped
A dark grid imposed
Protecting the future from doubt

Seen from a mountain eye
Cities divvied up 
Millions of rectangles 
and squares
Positive linear lust

Managed with might
Policed with rage
This IBM machine a blight

Chaos is the fountain
Chaos is the truth
Freedom will always break loose
