Tested

True love will manifest itself over time
It’s not measured by dollars, cents, nickels or dimes
Love is not pushed, pulled or coerced
It is there through the good and survives the worst

My Love

My love does not hunger
my love does not thirst
my love does not fail
and it won't be coerced

  my love waits alone
for the half of my whole
composing it's song
in the vaults of my soul.
Form: Couplet

Collaborator

The traitor 
seized fond dreams
and rent my soul
on a hurdle of nails
hauling innocence
toward sour odours;
the steel nemesis
christened cosmetic
under searing light
and coerced oblivion.

I didn't know 
          that I'm the first
I didn't know
          you were coerced
I didn't know
          your every verse
I didn't know
          they were rehearsed
I didn't know
          the truth at first

The Answer

A hand reaches through the water.
One is greedily snatched
Beyond Death's probing grasp.
Life's gentle breath
Is coerced into sleeping lungs.
Strong, powerful hands force life.
Prayers are answered.
Destiny is revealed.

Lol

In her aristocratic yet somber hour
Inebriated she phones me
As if I am an oblivious commodity
Though still I feel coerced
To exist within her wake
Even though communication
May be relinquished when sober
An allegiance has been pledged

I peer through mists of coming years,
The present disappears,
The crimson clouds of war blow past—
Utopia—world peace at last.

No famine, plagues or hunger then,
World law among all men,
Complete coerced security,
The subtlest sort of slavery.

Premium Member Conditioned

This cold scheduled grey life 
Has me so on point and on task
The tunnel vision is nauseating 
The horse blinders debilitating 
Want for what, wish for who 
An existence built to hypnotize
Time coerced me into being  
Unapologetically institutionalized

Life- Aye


My cherished one 
set against 
a sordid world 
My lanes are coerced 
just as my feet are formed 
My life is a platter 
furnished on a plaza 
dicing my thoughts 
stewing my ordeal
rendering my life 
a treasure meal
set before a soulless world

Premium Member Share the Wealth

Sharing is good, a basic lesson
I learned in pre-school
And it’s what most people
Both rich and poor go on to do
But when it’s forced, coerced
Taken without consent
It’s not sharing
It’s just theft
Something I also got lessons about
When I was just a child

Coerced and Corraled In a Cage

Coerced and Corraled In A Cage

What seems to be apparent  was the stage,
That we had discovered regarding the rage,
And from recorder,
Personality disorder,
Both coerced and corralled in a tight cage.

This seems to have caused some of Kavanaugh's
desire for revenge.

Premium Member More Police All Is Well

All is well, freedom is being erroded. Shops and independant buisness are punished the two weeks
Of house arrest became two years' so no falsehoods
There' the population were subjected to coerced
Mnra intervention, mental health and school results
Are suffering, but all is well in the u k.?

Chaperoning

The clinic feels like                            Alcatraz.
There’s no escape in                         this love.
I feel a growing sense                        of alarm
when you don’t return                    that night.
The doctor decides to                   sound calm
& I’m coerced into negotiating a settlement.

Premium Member A Terse Affair

I didn't know 
          that I'm the first
I didn't know
          you were coerced
I didn't know
          your every verse
I didn't know
          they were rehearsed
I didn't know
          the truth at first
I didn't know
          you'd be the worse
I didn't know
           you'd be my curse.

Premium Member Four Alarms Espinela

Your tongue is an atomic split,
I am locked in a  sharp inhale.
Proficient those lips leave me pale. 
All my breath work, can you feel it? 

Exploring my mouth bit by bit
with a simmer I'm left gasping.
Blood drains my will is collapsing,
knees fail as I fall for your charms.
My moans repeat like four alarms
coerced by shocks everlasting.

A Mother Coerced

It was in the innocent spring of life, of which, never they shared
While in the summer of youth, each gazed across or simply stared
Now these autumn winds bring whispers of twice cried tears
Of two tales told, each with the worst of harbored fear
Maybe forever their winter's discontent
Yet
Purveyors of souls, take seasons of which, always had meant

It's Hard To Be a Rhymer In a Free-Verse World

The "Rhymers" guild; archaic faction,
We garner all the more detraction
Less, are we, in our attraction
More, we are, the poetic infraction

When free is verse, a form accursed-
Murders Art, fetch forth a hearse
For they coerced the Poems reverse,
And left our lines inverse- perverse!

Premium Member -Thankyou My Loyal Poet Friend

Loyalty and honesty mean everything to me
It is not always easy to find
Yet I have found it here on Poetry Soup
With a poet so supportive and kind

He has my back completely
Supported me when l was openly wronged
Never to be coerced by empty poetic words
His sincerity and loyalty unwaveringly strong

I just wanted to say a huge Thankyou …..l appreciate you so much!

The Prisoner

“I” is just a concept made by mind. Siddhartha Gautama

Mind has to dwell in a coerced seclusion: 
mind is a prisoner of the conclusion
that mind is mine. I share your letdown,
my mind. Minds cannot shatter the illusion
of the first person singular pronoun.

Premium Member Never Throw a Tirade

Never throw a tirade at a parade, Or castigate a wealthy profligate Do not endanger the park ranger, Or roller skate at the Watergate Careful always to recoup the poop, One never ever makes a group Expect the worst if lips are pursed, Avoid, if possible, being coerced And always assemble yourself Before sitting on the top shelf.

Listen to poem:
The Object of Objectivity 
David J Walker
	

Objectively trapped within 
	The lost cause of
Freedom from bias that
comes at the cost

Of uncertain death 
        ambivalent rebirth 
A quality of character rehearsed

A paupers portion
	A supplicant petition 

The magician hides the truth  
	Inside revisions 
Coerced

The magician hides the ruse  
	Inside intentions  
Emersed
