Knowing this World 
Round like a ball 
They kick it very hard 
Taking the World as a ball 
All in frustrations...

One red bell pepper
In the flower pot, leaves gone
Holes bored in the fruit

No smoking gun by
Juice in a jar lid will drown
Many frustrations...

The child lost
Wanders round
In the man of body
Without a growing understanding
Except the hand on gun
Loaded up with silent frustrations
Until the empty’s numb...

Can't reach those cookies
at five... can't date till I'm twelve...
  can't drive a car till
  sixteen...can't buy a drink then...   
Off to fight wars at eighteen......

Frustrations may get a long rope,
But there’s a tether we call hope
That puts despair in falling slope.

Heart broken
from anger
exploded violently.

Tender touch
escaped emotions.
Flared empty
tears flow...

Help me please!

As hurt masks
frustrations want
for lovable understanding...

My valiant efforts are pushed to vanity

When the expression of love and desire are forced to the surface,

I cannot begin to explain what I want from him

And he will never understand my frustrations....

From the frustrations of this day form peace 
From the joy of this day form strength 
From the struggles of this day form courage 
From the beauties of this day form love

"Things"

May seemingly

Get heavy in 

What appears as life

For no one..

Burdens and

Frustrations which are

Stories of suffering

Appearing as This..

Lightness appearing

As heavy......

OFTIMES
Fig trees do not flower
our grapes die on the vine
olive harvests fail,and
frustrations will prevail-
Fine words just will not flow
'til we let the Spirit show,
again,high places to walk,
where,once more, we can grow...

A Drunken Spider

There once was a huge golden-silk spider.
Bobby Joe ran to sit down beside her.
He threw some sticks at her web.
Her frustrations did not ebb.
So, he sprayed on a liquor elixir.

eap-DISASTER

When disaster befalls a people;
In the midst of desperation
And the mountains of frustrations
With the mercy of divine intercession
By the kindness of neighbors restoration

Crash. 
Pounding. 
I Hit Him,
Sinking nails in. 
His Wails soar Louder.
My Frustrations Leave Me;
For now, I feel Less Alone.
Delightful Dirges always help...
But then my Mom Storms in, Hands on Hips.
"Bethani Dianne, turn that Piano Down!"...

I delight when you pour yourself on me...

your love,

your problems,

your body,

your gifts,

your frustrations,

your life.

Now, thoughts of you are vapors that I absorb and drift into.

Reality grabs my chin and turns me around. 

Salty tears escape....

Hiding away in our homes
‘cause that's what this virus demands
we’re keeping each other safe
by washing our faces & hands

swallowed up in emotion
frustrations come crashing at times
together, we will get through this
just keep praying that all will be fine...

Flickered cigarette, 

Angst you wish not to covet


Confounded expectations,

Gust of disappointments and frustrations.


Knew better not to ask, 

Of that worn out stoic mask. 


Weary eyes you don't need to hide,

Innate emotions few wouldn't mind....

Palate of my art
A blank page
So dark
The velvet blackness
Of naught
Caught my frustrations
So fraught
With turbid 
Thought
To free oneself
Of constructed
Tort
To feel
My self
My pen
My thoughts
Express it
With self-colour
An Echo
To bounce
Upon
This page...

Green Grass

Trials and tribulations
Life and its frustrations
The train awaits me at the station
Do I get on, or let it pass me by?

The grass isn’t always greener
Looking at those who’ve been there
What’s for them isn’t for me
Face life head on
Be who I want to be...

I'd like to write a poem
that might

Describe my delights.
Share my sorrows.
Expand my expectations.
Defeat my demons.
Justify my joy.
Anchor my anger.
Free my frustrations.
Worship my womanliness.
Bestow my bounty.
Cherish my children.
Harness my hopes.
Love my lard....

Passerby echo the frustrations of the world
Under the bridge
Tall tales of courage
Outpours from angry souls
Yet the toughest of them all still hide
Under the bridge
Grass roots & neo-souls speak words
In the form of hyperboles
Leaving actions hidden like water
Under the bridge...
