Short Corrode Poems

Let's live life willingly but...
     Let's be responsible without
     corrupt the body without
      corrode the soul......

Said the Guru Saying :131

Truth is confronting, it can set you ablaze.
Corrode your deliverance,
and force anger to occupy you.

My bones corrode
From the acidity of your endearment.
Stay away.
Keep your distance.
I am already decaying
From the affliction
Of all the tenderness I carry
For you....

As a drop of acid destroys a fabric of excellent quality

So a vice may corrode the character of a virtuous man!

The relentless
don't settle for quiet
 when their creativity
   is blossoming.
They may encounter
 crevices and falter.
   Yet, their soul
  will corrode any
     indifference....

A bracelet, which once promised so much
Breaks, without force or encouragement
And falls to the wooden floor.
Never before have I felt so free.
And so, as links corrode as hearts do,
We break too....

Cookies crumble, records tumble
  Flowers wilt, drinks are spilt

Batteries corrode, mountains erode
  Wine turns sour, storms knock out power 

Beauty fades, so do crusades
  No poem so clever, it lasts forever...

Erode and Corrode

What happened was wind blowed and blowed
Causing every thing to erode and corrode;
Water turn bad;
All so very sad,
Luckily, safely items had been below stowed.

Sparkle, sparkle, little twink
Meghan Markle, doncha think
Marrying your princely fella
Not quite like that time Mandela
Was set free from years in prison?
Seems that public ire has risen.
Sometimes, tiaras do corrode
And princesses turn back to toads.
The biggest threat to being woke:
Get eaten by like-minded folk....

You corrode your being
With evil that serves no purpose
How do you propose to do this and keep us
Is it demons, darkness, depression or drear
It's hard to sit by and watch in fear
You choose to hurt yourself or is it me
Clink
Clink
Clink
Just one more please
Life I guess is too much for you
But remember I am a part of you too...

I am beginning to reckon
That to Miss Tracy I beckon
I permit to my image ruin
With the strength of the rains of June;
In the end self-esteem erode
And parts of my flesh corrode
And Miss Tracy lavishly goad
To balance on my shoulders load
I should see its rubbishy content
To delay not a vile intent…

I’m now some cycle Tracy rode,
For which like river she had flowed;
Thunderous laughter did explode....

The chorus of faceless senators in a mass of a church with the great black light opening. Becoming what is under the cloak of reality. the belly of the beast carrying the church with wood moldy corrode. It calls out from the open mouth of its winged hyenas from the glass spoon forged by the great starfish whose pink runs around the bridge of feathers. Hammering down beating the scales of bees sword thirsty in a windy sky....

You fill me with strange dreams;
Sleep with poison ivy, 
it creates a wild twitch; 
Restrained by wicked vines,
my skin inflamed I itch; 

You fill me with strange dreams;
Into soothing starlight 
sugar balloons explode;  
Could never cause damage;
What’s real starts to corrode;

You fill me with strange dreams; 
All of my thoughts rubbed raw,
a heartfelt wish refined;
I’m left in agony  
I wake, they stay behind....

In anger
You told me
A chasm lay between us,
I looked
Saw it there
I recognised
My own handiwork
Horrified, repenting I
Built a bridge,
With strong foot boards
Tempting you to cross
I added shiny rails,
To stop you falling.
I sweep the boards
And polish the rails,
Most every day.
But you don't come 
To see,
To cross.
One day the dust will stay
The rails will start to corrode.
Then if you cross,
You will find
Only an empty wasteland
And my dust
Blowing in the wind
Unknowable....

Maybe, wrongly,
But I tell you, strongly,
I’m beginning to reckon
That to one we often beckon,
We our self-esteem erode,
And our flesh corrode,
And the very guy goad,
To on our shoulders drop a load,
Weighing a thousand grams of neglect,
And another of disrespect,
Any soul should last expect …
With its awful content one can’t inspect.

How does one now smiles beam,
With a slaughtered self esteem,
Promising only twists and turns,
And a belly that’s tightly churns?...

They're usually made from solid stone,
And are usually sitting all alone,
Their eyes so cold and never-blinking,
Their stares so deep as if they're thinking,

With backs curved as if in pride,
Masking their sorrows that lie inside.
Always bearing a smile so fake,
Masking their frowns that occasionally quake.

Out in the rain they breakdown and corrode,
the process is painful and very slow.
But with the company of pigeons to and fro
'Tis not so bad, now don't you know?...

cracks between doors,
like rats, fingers course
thru, corrode against
the inside of a clenched
fist. cease, this silence,
i insist(bite tongue, each
word, penance)suffer,
humor is a sense-
shattered glass tickle
bare feet- the caveat
of clenched teeth. mis-
placed morality, i do
appreciate your sin-
cerity; fate compromised
(the hands of time, 
mesmerised in back&forth 
instants). "it is okay"
someone will say; but 
words change & fall away
like leaves, all intent
bereaved....
