Prohibiting Poems | Examples

Wish I knew

Wish I knew what depths of your heart holds, all the loose wires that release high voltages, whenever I try reaching out to you, prohibiting my emötional ease

exchange codes, with your programmer to know all the right keys to your happiness, to see the world via the same lenses as you, be able to polish your smiles and numb your pain

so wish, I was a bomb difuser, for you are a ticking bomb, waiting to explode any tile, not knowing how to handle you, excruciates my living, hope you grant me acces and allow me to dance to drum beat of your heart

Lovng Day

Loving Day

When Richard and Mildred fell in love,
their fate was decided by a judge.
For he was white and she was black,
their marriage broke Virginia's Integrity Act.

Forced to move to Washington DC,
they opposed the ruling in 1963.

In 1967, a supreme court ruled that Richard and Mildred Loving could live together,
as an interracial married couple in their own state of Virginia,
and declared that the law prohibiting this was unconstitutional.

June 12 is National 'Loving Day', when many Americans continue to celebrate the freedom to marry a person of another race.
Festivals, barbecues, parties are held, 
to show that love knows no bound.

Unity of Consanguinity

Consanguinity
Consanguinity is the characteristic of having a kinship with another person. Many jurisdictions have laws prohibiting people who are related by blood from marrying or having sexual relations with each other. The degree of consanguinity that gives rise to this prohibition varies from place to place. Such rules are also used to determine heirs of an estate according to statutes that govern intestate succession, which also vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. In some places and time periods, cousin marriage is allowed or even encouraged; in others, it is taboo, and considered to be incest.

The Politics of Coronavirus

The government is not debating,
Internally or understating,
Attacking, flipping the opposition,
Or denouncing the wealth creating.

All parties work together,
To social fairness we toast,
Maintaining the societal blether,
Announcing the financial host.

Few MPs sit in Parliament,
The chamber is internal,
The order is not permanent,
Here, the rules fraternal.

We will all look back,
Upon this treacherous time,
Commend ourselves for yack,
For prohibiting the crime.

Reverse! To the Coronavirus,
Stop somewhere else, not here,
Glide into outer space,
To prohibit any reason for tear.

Ghost Writer

COMPULSIVITY
He wanted to write actually ... he wrote so much, so much
that wiped out all the trees in the city. the state, the country ...
With modernity, he moved to the computer ... compulsive as
how he was, wrote, typed, typed so much that it broke your keyboard,
another one and another until you break all keyboards of the market ...
A specific law was made for him, prohibiting him from writing ...
If he did, he would be arrested! for contempt, for writing too much!
He fled where it is unknown and turned GHOST WRITER ... writer

Prohibiting alcohol back in the twenties
Was doomed from the start, like prohibiting wedgies
Favorite stunt of mine
Game for it anytime
However, as long as there's no warm caressing

Premium MemberBrighter Futures

We each have this fundamental choice
to know our mistakes as a relentless wall
oozing passions of superior severance
prohibiting successful futures
more like choosing compassion together

Rather than stuck
on the wrong side of a brick wall,
we could also choose to rediscover past mistakes 
as an uncovering web
toward a more cooperative future
less shaken apart,
less stone-walled by Win/Lose competitors,
more inviting,
even enchantedly compassionate,
regathering health toward integrity's networking wealth.

Resilient discernment
unveils
resonant, not at all dispassionate, co-discovery.

Empty,
yet pregnant,
enthymematic promising integrity
of each internal/external moment's Zen ZeroZone potential,
co-operatively LeftYang,
co-passionately RightYin,
Tao of bilateral spacetime
becoming ego/eco-resilient health webs
without prohibitive pathological walls.

New Normal

Choose chivalry in the new millennium
Hounded by instant institutions
Vying in the main to inhabit any cranium
Prone to proclivities prohibiting and inhibiting affections.

Inject zeal and steel
Into backs bent on the Facebook platform
Where puny posts reel
In discomfort at the loss of their honesty home.

Spin wheels. Don’t reinvent wheels
Although pesky posts you tweet
Every morning imply insanity spills
Into worthy worlds you no longer greet.

Cure yourself from the moon
That casts a long shadow
Into your thoughts and boats at noon
When monsoons and typhoons doodle noodles in your mind’s meadow.

Instant answers mediated in social media
Twist wisps of vanity out of shape
As you glean trivia from Wikipedia
Expecting to grow wiser up your nape.

Take a deep breath
As you assess the travesty
Artificial intelligence inflicts on the faith
You once held in awe and majesty. 

Worry not if pretence on Whatsapp
Stimulates seeds of somnolence
Sown in an Internet app
That kills slowly your conscience in silence.

Infect websites you abhor
Blogs you disgust
As you adopt a gung-ho
Attitude in the dust of August.

Ode To Tyrranosauras

Oh monstrous carnivore of days forgot
Show us how great you were
Or has the time lock kept you out
Prohibiting your hunting about

Evil appearance and savage heart
To love and hate were miles apart
Your monstrous strength and ill repute
Aided your vengeance and deathly loot

A head so large and teeth like knives
Would tear any predator apart in one
The price to pay for trespassing
On this creatures land is done

You could not fly, you could not swim
You were not fat, yet neither thin
With all your deeds and feats laid down
This fighting machine deserves a crown

Freedom of Speech

I’m flatter by the system it’s not corporate it just ain’t witness

If every answer came out of the air or thin hair we could do what Moses did and part

The sea

Thoughts that come and thought  that play around on time line

I never lost faith in the system the system never characterize a belief

All I ask is can I testify and take it to the streets

If I pledge the alliance does the star mean another

Hero has fallen

Thoughts that come and thought  that play around on time line

If word fragments dawn and never waking how would I plead the fifth

Answer out of a page or history book let one judge

Thoughts that come and thought  that play around on time line




“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

:mother, Father, Brother, Sister:

My mother says that I'll never see. 
My father says that I'll never hear. 
My brother I'll never get higher than a C. 
My sister says I'll never tolerate beer. 
  Every day, my family puts me down. 
They say that they're just being realistic.
But there is one thing they didn't put on that excuse mound. 
That they're not perfect, they're never optimistic. 
   Studies show that the reason bullies
Put others down, 
Isn't to please,
Not because they find pleasure in the pound;
Not because they like to tease,
But that it brings them up. 
To the brim of their cup. 
   Mom, I see that you're an alcoholic, 
    Dad, I hear that you're in a financial rut. 
Brother, I've gotten all A's and and one B. But not higher than you are on your drugs. 
Sister, you were right. Unlike you, I won't drink, or portray myself as a ****. 
And Uncle?
Thank you. 
For helping my grades up to A's and B's. 
For prohibiting drinking and drugging. 
And...,
For opening my eyes and ears,
To see and hear,
That it's not me. 
It's them.

Flight To My Voice

My voice, long muffled by evil hand;
With one intent – 
Erase my voice,
My power,
My dream.

The hand of evil my voice does cover;
Prohibiting its discover;
And nausea rises up in me;
Longing to purge 
the pain stuffed down for, oh, so many years,
And, oh, so many tears;
Like regurgitating bile within. 

Though nausea rises up in me, 
wanting to be purged,
My voice awaits to be set free;
And flight given to all that is within me.
What wondrous things ahead do lie,
with this voice to be released?
What will it say?
What will it dream?

My Savior, My Father, set me free
To give my voice a place;
 Rise up within me without disgrace;
There is impact to be made!
Impact to set the captives free;
But first to start with me.

There is a force upon this earth
a force of evil intent disguised
by empathy guiding the masses into a
feudal system of unequal apportions.
Already the wall is built, conjured with
a news media of imagery used haphazardly,
a wall, to keep in the intellect those who
cannot relate to simplicity that, which
is the secret of life’s beginning,
a wall that nurtures minds of organized chaos
whilst prohibiting precious sentiment
a ploy of the low life, those kept outside
of the wall except for the menial tasks
befitting his master!
