Power Play Poems | Examples


Healing

Was I blind... 
Or had I willful blindness?
I was surely not ignorant,
Neither was I acquainted.
Heart was in gale,
Mind did acquiesce.
I was always a coward,
Who never confronted.

I saw those flags,
Brightest and limpid.
Red in qualms,
Redder in distrust,
Reddest in name callings,
You were my dear,
DOMINEERING IN EVERYTHING.

You were preeminent,
That is why I capitulated.
But that was show,
I never calculated.

Yes I did a mistake,
Yes I am admitting,
You tought me a lot,
a lot destructing,
I am now back,
See here my dear,
Here is my audacity.

Please don’t tell me, go on show me 
I can’t keep my hands off of you; 
The way you softly say ‘Okay’
turn me on with that tone I missed;

Silence everything inside me 
tell me what else I need to do; 
Slowly feast on me make me pay 
that heavy price for wanting this; 

Take me now make that power play;
Don’t tell me, show me how you kiss.

Power Play

How can we stop misuse of power play?
An egalitarian society is what we need today
Egalitarianism will bring prosperity for each gender
Handcuffs for exploited hands and full stop for offender
Do you know what is egalitarianism?
A remedy to get rid of frustration
A rational movement to end up discrimination
A logical way to advise
Reflection of heaven and Paradise.

Power Play and Roses

Power play and roses

The USA has a pinball machine rigged in their favour
And pin by pin the countries in the middle- America fall
One by one the collapse when they try playing just
Against those who have stolen the mafia’s textbook.
 
I wonder why we have high regards for liars they are 
Nothing But a soul that thinks we are expendable garbage.
 
Revolves around the dancefloor under candlelight
Over glasses of whisky whisper satanic conspiracies
Shiny bejewelled wives are a mere decoration
Evil men are lovers in an unbroken circle of power.

Premium Member Tic Tac the Wonderful Cat With a Special Mat

Tic Tac Was A Wonderful Cat 

And for That Reason, He Had A Special Mat 

It Was A Special Place to Go 

At the End of The Day When Tic Tac Felt Slow 

But One Day When the Sun Was Done 

Tic Tac Wanted A Place to Put His Bum 

But the Dog in The House Was A Very Quiet Mouse 

When He Was Walking Around 

Looking to Sit Down

Well the Dog Was on Tic Tac's Spot 

And Tic Tac Was Very Hot 

So, He Started to Meow 

Which Made the Dog Howl? 

The Two Had A Fight 

Showing Their Might 

And in The End 

Tic Tac Was Able to Defend 

The Mat That Was Reserved for Tic Tac the Wonderful Cat

Power Play!

If power pays when power plays, all action has its cost
And when aggressor's shot his wad, it still might be he's lost
Love's only way that two can win, not zero-sum type game,
But win-win games are rare in life; the future's seldom tame!

Or is there even room for God if you're the man in charge?
To go for gold is fine, of course, but God (if true) quite large!
If God's the author of Man's time whose plan you want to win,
What soul not benefit from Grace, or is that only spin?

Is there a chance your God's too small, you lack humility?
Or has creation thrown you curve, God missing you can't see?
Did you provide yourself with life, still stuff for you to learn?
Creator real? Does void appeal? If wrong, where will you turn?

Power Play

Power play 

I sometimes think people get what they deserve 
Hitler was elected, Stalin too and Netanyahu is also elected,
but when the house falls it's easier to blame one person
calling him evil and thus avoid looking at ourselves
The majorities of the Israelites have a hardened attitude to
the Palestinians, it is as they look at them as vermin,
we have heard that before in another time here in Europe.
When the downtrodden take power they have much to revenge
Usually, it is the weakest that get a taste of their whip.

Power Play

I demand too much
Of love, and it of me
Between the two of us,
Neither one is free.

The Aye See See,
Demands! All rogues to the Hague!
Not so! Argues Ay You,
Our justice is tribune and divine, 
Yours - archaic and Roman!
With insolent rage she defies,
And vows to send all her rogues,
Not to the Hague, but to her courts!
And insists - they alone can judge!   
You Es Ay bellows and threatens!
Amidst the furore Aye Am Ef,
Her funds she withdraws,
But to no avail, Ay You sticks to her guns!
And insists, when it comes to her rogues,
She alone is sovereign! 
Stunned, they seek a You En resolution,
Which only You Es Ay can enforce!
