Short Insistently Poems

The year is over so I promise,
in fact insistently I swear,
I will not drink, deceive or gamble
or swear....

Mind twisting and turning
Visions teasing and taunting
These delusions return once more
Driving me to insanity with no cure
Pounding in my head insistently beating
No respite in view no relief perceiving
More and more I despise this gyre
Again and again it leads me to surrender...

one year
very specific, left behind by all
she insistently keeps it

a male
that she hasn't seen in like...
located in that gathering

and together
they sang, and so went along
in that specific year
 
with him
well actually, completely and utterly alone
she keeps on singing...

This poet has most incorrectly checked 
The little box which indicates "insect." 
This poem, I therefore flatly reject. 
I sharply reproach the writer.  

A spider, never an insect, was. 
I say this insistently because, 
He should say "sorry."  Until he does,
I remain a concerned spider....

Give me a Call

I am prettier than you
(in complete darkness) -smarter too
(when I give no tongue) -I’m an angel
(when heaven fails) a dancer, a singer,
a multilingual,  polyphenomenol, unsolvable
crusade of mystery, always and insistently
(when mixed with ethanol) but, best of all
I’m no one at all! 

Give me a call ;)...

Autumns Tree

balmy, wavy, dancing
contently autumns tree acknowledges me
still strong alive...


wind insistently
bends branches
fall colored leaves trees

INTRUDERS



She brought with her a bus queue of troubles,
All waiting for a place in the warm dry seats of my ears:
They trampled my quiet like Mexican spurs,
Insistently prodding me to respond to her fears,
Ringing my stop bell, dropping ticket stubs 
Under the seats where a brush won’t sweep
And a mop never rubs.

One winter weary dreaming 
they chance upon my door
several ghastly ghouls 
screaming for some more
insistently they went on tapping
rapping at my door
Quietly creeping silently weeping
crept I to the chamber door
standing indecisive
with  I my hand upon the door
heart beating memory fleeting
flung I open the door
T'was Halloween
this and nothing more...

I’M SO ANNOYED
When what I say is true,
And I can’t get through.
A flash from my past…
They seem to have no clue.
Déjà vu.
A small wrong that I detect;
A missing check or bill to correct.
Selectively deaf to what I say,
Insistently, I attempt to convey.
When via the phone,
More frustration prone.
A voice in an unseen space;
I want to confront you face to face!
No matter what the reason why,
I’m so annoyed, that I could cry....

And this is why
I have decided
To leave
It there

Incongruity meets ignorance
Your charms fall short
Your words scar
Unobtrusively

Insistently 
You choose to see
Through the lens
Of yourself, and
Nowhere close to me

You choose to be
Fooled
By exactly what I am—
To the unthinking,
Merely
Another

Uncertainty meets unrest
Your heart beats much too
Near yourself
Comfortably, 
Conveniently

And this is why
I have decided
To leave
It there...

Silky soft sand
a zen garden
dutifully raked
organized
but fluid.

Rock solid concrete
a straight sidewalk
purposefully aimed
determined
and rigid.

Silky soft sand
a seaside beach
eternally shuffled
chaotic
but natural.

Rock solid concrete
a fluted pillar
anciently built
weathered
but stoic.

Silky soft sand
a pliable mind
persistently curious
unmolded
and alive.

Rock solid concrete
a zealot view
insistently settled
decided
and dead....
