Short Equalizer Poems

adjust the equalizer on a distorted aura

when they hear beauty with their eyes, they will play it again...

Grand Equalizer!
A true lot to ponder
Death is the Grand equalizer.
What shall come next?
Depends on,
What one
Had done,
And His Mercy...

expendable lives
our elderly, sick and poor
benefits denied
D.C. may call the shots now
God is the equalizer

Spent my working years as a graphic designer
Hand sketches won out, now computers are the equalizer
More difficult to succeed
A level field became key
Now one can design stuff from a comfy recliner...

We're all brothers
and sisters
in life and death
the common
bonds of humanity
We may harp
on our differences
do various 
sorts of things
because of misconceptions
But there's
no denying
that we
must all experience
life in
all it's forms
and the
ultimate equalizer - - -
Death
There's no 
bypassing this
It's inevitable....

No one can bar the door to their house to prevent a visit

Dreaded and feared universally
Equalizer, not sparing saints, beggars or kings
Awful and awesome, having no nemesis
Thief taking loved ones, deaf to pleas, blind to tears
Hurting and destroying those it leaves behind 

Jack Horne, 4th September, for Constance’s Deep and Dramatic contest...

The dreary equalizer of all,
Who meets short and tall,
Who doesn’t care if you’re younger
O(r elder, He’s the Grim Reaper.

With thy finger so cold and scaly,
Oh great old one, I bow down to thee,
For you have visited me once before,
But alas, you couldn’t take my soul.

You can not kill what is already dead,
And death is all I have inside my head....

A great despair...
Heavy and burdensome..
Hangs like wet wool, covering the motionless night...
From a door...
Within the depths of self...
Realization springs forth...
Uncoiling, like a serpent in strike....
Time is the great equalizer of man...
It paints the picture of truth...
For we all march daily towards death and deliverance...
Loss fills the plate...
Where once,
Tomorrow reined.....TAH...

United States had looked defeated after Netherlands' Jill Roord scored a goal in the 17th minute, the first time United States trailed in a World Cup game since the 2011 quarterfinals.  In the second half Lindsey Horan became angry after a hard tackle by Netherlands’ van de Donk.  Minutes later Lindsey scored the equalizer on a thunderous header.

USA humbled
Orange Lionesses’ Roord—
don’t make Lindsey mad...

Death, the final equalizer;
be it a leaf, human or star
their end is inevitable.
Can it easily be conceived?
will it truly be understood?
Do their unique differences:
diminutive or gigantic
change deaths meaning and concept?
Does any of that matter much?
Humans perceive death as macabre
a horror of loss and decay.
leaf and star suffer the same fate
yet both lives end naturally
without a promised afterlife....

Day fades into semidarkness
And night’s ravenous appetite
Slowly consumes remaining light
Leaving nothing but shadowy
Phantoms slow dancing with the wind
Under a new moon cloudy night.
Darkness- The great equalizer
Where the sense of sight is useless
And Seeing Eye dogs are not seen;
Where sinners and saints are lovers
And transgression and grace are words
having utterly no meaning;
Where truth becomes irrelevant
Until the mornings piercing light....

From the pain of our sorrow
  And the tears that we shed
 Death is present in every tomorrow
  His scythe always ready, for the grim task ahead

 Through the graveyard he strolls
  Collecting the harvest of fallen souls
 Never tiring of what he reaps
  He always plays for keeps

 The crop is sure in any season, no need to sow
   For the seeds of life must grow
 He's the great equalizer we know
   And a most formidable foe!
