Refusing Diligence, To Do Even Basic Math

Why do we too oft blindly walk a deep, darken path
Through the volleys of arrows shot by Fate's mighty wrath
When in this wicked world, we could accept light's reprieve
By opening both heart and eyes to truth thus perceive
That darkness rests within our souls, all flesh is the same
That glaring

Premium MemberRefusing the Duster

I have a duster Mrs. A. said. I will bring it to you.
I was thinking feather duster, so I said I did not want it.
She said “It is really pretty. It has flowers on it.”
I thought she meant flowers painted on the feathers of it.
“I had one,” I told her. “My dog ate it.”
She kept

If they don't, they're guilty of resisting a rest.

Premium MemberRefusing Fear

Pressed into cavity, wardrobe holds captive
Constrained where space is a premium
Love lodged squashes logic, lungs ravaged 
Quicksand scenarios draw a dreamer in


Denigrated to respondee in his spare time 
Hung on railing to wear at convenience
Smiling nicely to speeches of a shared life
Passed opportunity pops my congenial


Friendliness strung with fun doesn't endear
Resists my charm like chalice

Drunken Playground

The stars look pretty from down here,
Lying on my side.

This chicken doesn't want to hold me,
I'm too heavy for playground rides.

I'm not a child anymore.
At least I try.

Especially
After Strawberry Daiquiris.

I Met Myself and Turned Away, Refusing To Believe

i hit my brother’s dab pen and got high so i could play guitar better
instead i saw jesus’s face in wood paneling
like what a god might see before he dies, immortally of course

Refusing To Play

Looming large in my absence,
  the silence screamed out my name

Present in my rejection
 —refusing to play the game

Politicians Are Refusing

Politicians Are Refusing

To do things, politicians are refusing,
And like time bomb needing defusing;
Always on break;
For goodness sake;
This is highly alarming and not amusing.

From a Pen Refusing Frustration

I know you, I know your thought,
I won't be intimidated by their sunny
Red blazing eyes that hurts minds.
My ink might not be better now but
I won't give up in the quest to know more,
I will still swallow my pride and work.
The essences of living is not seen in not failing
But failing and rising make up

I Refusing To Cry, You To Ever Yield

 I never went into your dark room
 never saw your silent rage
 In my mind your cannons never boom
 nor does your face ever age

 I never felt your lonely trance
 never saw you naked in a cage
 In this dark world you truly dance

Many Are Now Refusing

Many Are Now Refusing

What thought are in their each mind
Along with facts have become resigned
Which they will be willing to accept
Who on subject have slept and slept.

How did world end up with an abundance?
Of sin, greed, malice and much repugnance;
Hopefully soon from God a message He'll send
Saying, "!!!All of this must be brought to an

Refusing the End.

cocoon quiet
white moth wings
in beaten ears
to muffle cotton words

blue eyes flutter
beneath their lids
laughing at invisible
soundless jokes

depth perception
impeccably late
with swollen thoughts
and powdered air

closed up shop
blinds fall still
enveloped musings
and whisper wings

all this happens
in the midst of goodbye
my mind retreats
and you're still here.

Refusing Self-Doubt

As you go forth in your endeavors
Remember to keep a foundation
As obstacles come before you 
It will guide you in situations.
Refusing self-doubt,
By entertaining the challenges within,
Pursuing the desires of the heart
As motivation becomes your friend.
Have confidence in who you are
Where ever your Journey leads,
Know, you must keep on pressing
By continuously planting your seed.
Advancing to your
