Short Meaninglessness Poems

Tears- never knew a home
So accommodating, like
Diamonds- cut with blood 
So devastating the
Weakness- the marker of a soul 
So Broken, by
Shame-in a mirage of a life
So Hopeless because of the
Meaninglessness-I carry with me 
So futile these
Wasted-tears...

hello world without surprise.
good morning gentle tedium.
seduce me, please, monotony.
kiss me, sweet emptiness.
hold me rough, nothingness.
dishonor me, meaninglessness.
ravish me, joylessness. 
whew... can a girl get a cigarette?



no, I don't really smoke - yuck - that was a joke  =]...

Mingle with me, in a misty, mimosa moment.

Make my metric mistakes so minuscule.

Maximize my poetic meaningfulness .

Minimize my meaninglessness.

Of my most memorable moments, let me pen.

Memories with members, with momentous souls.

Poetic mathematics, Misty Angel, is my goal!

From here I see again - not property
Men mangled and maimed by history
Not the shadows in chains
Chipping and hauling wooden flesh
Creation with more license
Than God on the silver skin
Carried its cargo before the wind
Of meaninglessness -
Here looks across the shining city
The muted mist of history
And here stand only as man
Nonnegotiable, nothing less....

Paint me.. 
a picture of disaster
of Self pity 
of little worth

of meaninglessness 

on a cornflower blue background
and red brush strokes

signify me..

put me on canvas
on display
for all to see and
criticize

because even 
free wine and
hors d’oeuvres
will never be 
enough

this grand 
opening
isn’t for them

or even
for you
it 
is 
for
Me

I am a masterpiece...

Listen to poem:

The Solitude of the Candle
David J Walker

The sweet smell of spiced  
paraffin and flame

the solitude of darkness
		I am the name

I am the sound 
of the moniker 
and bound

To hold the meaninglessness 
 of a darkness 

in a
		Darkened  frame

In a dark space
		In a dark place

Just beyond 
		The Candles claim 

And will be remembered
		So long lives

		The candle's flame...

In the bevy of beauty 
She strode with carriage and courage
Gazers overwhelmed
Critics clamoured
Now,
Mourners mourning
As they gather round her past
This noon she stood there vertical
Tonight she lay horizontal
Her pride and beauty encase 
In the meaninglessness of life
Head dropping
Tears tiring
Hope hopping
'Dirt to dirt 'hallowed the priest
'Emptiness of human in the human cosmos ' echoed the mourners....

COPLA 85 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

If the aim’s to nullify conflict
How could evolution be willed :
Sheer accident

Since species are subject to roles strict
Just to keep each entity drilled :
None come out spent

If the idea was mooted first
Then set to plan by innate laws :
What’s the purpose

Just to assuage Creator’s thirst
To see how we obey His powers :
Meaninglessness

What is life? 
At this exact moment
Sitting in a hot crowded bus,
Headed somewhere absolutely meaningless to be in,
Yet feeling no sense of displacement for it.

What is life,
Wandering through unknown roads
Working with unknown people
Helping them in their strange endeavours
Yet feeling no sense of foreignness for it

Is life so meaningless 
That doing things obviously meaningless
Doesn't give a feeling of 
meaninglessness....
