Short Omitted Poems

Nincompoops fight with each other
Satan enjoys the show - brother kills brother

Though cold and dark, they are submitted
To where winds of fate are omitted
this lonely pair remains committed

mortal life?
a prison!

Death?
...a window given...

a burdened charity dost entail
faux generosity habitually inhaled

jaunts, keepsakes left macerated
nothing omitted, personally quantitated

reason sifted through ubiquitously
vehement will yearned zealously...

He lives in fear eternally for crimes he committed, 
Considering each t-cross and i-dot he omitted, 
Waiting for the sad, sickening slamming of the gavel, 
But it has long since crashed; see his mind, like yarn, unravel....

The decision seemed so obvious.
My lust for pleasure drove me thus.
I rushed right in, oblivious to pride,
my fickle whims my foolish guide.
Wisdom was omitted, no pause for thought.
Irrevocable regret is what it brought.

The mate of my soul 
has passed me by.
Ships in the night.
Out of my sight.

I thought it was you.
My love at eighteen.
Destiny decreed
you become a has been.

I have been omitted
from that lucky queue.
Overlooked, yet hopeful
to one day find you....

At the end of the summer
The heartbreak begins,
But, until then,
Get down with your sins

This sentence
Is long and blurred,
And the ending’s been cut back
By three simple words

I hate you
Has been omitted again
Or I love you was said
And that was the end...

Little nothings
Unimportant
Mere slips of the tongue
Omitted truths
Slanted or tinted
Not meant to hurt

Each one 
A drop
In that ocean
Drifting them apart

Be optimistic rather than fatalistic.
Don't squander and be elated hedonistic.

Retain moving; only the obdurate survive.
Hand jives your way to contrive.

Slump or solidity must be omitted. 
Wear awe mood when having moved. 

Don't be shy in taking elitism.
Self-reliance is a wedge of realism....

I screwed up when making a tart
Two lemons I’d squeezed at the start
Much to my chagrin
No juice was put in
I’m convinced I had a brain fart!

I was making a lemon tart for my husband, was in a rush and omitted to put the juice in – within a minute I realised my error, opened the oven and poured it into the mixture

I HAVE FALLEN
 
FALLEN FROM GRACE
TURNED MY BACK
ON THE HUMAN RACE
 
WHAT IS THE PRICE
THEY WILL HAVE TO PAY
BECAUSE I WAS ENTICED
ON THAT UNFORGETTABLE DAY
 
MY HEART BROKEN
MY BODY BATTERED
MY INNOCENCE STOLEN
 
TO GOD, WHO I HAVE OMITTED
HOW CAN I BE FORGIVEN
FOR THE SINS I HAVE COMMITTED
HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SUCH A HEATHEN
 
FALLEN
 
FALLEN FROM GRACE...

Dust from the past, layered in youths callow
Desperate to be forgiven, for sins committed
Wrongs done in ignorance should be omitted

Dust from the past, covers the shallow
Fear of failure, insecure self worth
Heat needs to rise from this emotional hearth

Dust from the past, it casts a shadow
Anxious to wash it away, make it clean
Start over, be clearly seen

To late......

The blue

In Christmas..

It's often omitted

By demands for 

Seasonal joy..

Yet the blue

Overwhelms in the

News of the day..

Asking:

Can the joy happen

Without the blue?

And likewise

Can the blue happen

Without the joy?

Perhaps there is

No joy and 

No blue..only

Unfathomable love

Appearing now as

Joy..and now as

Blue..

Here and there......

Leave the tangle behind you.
This is the theory I omitted.
Quite a while back.

Dwelling in a secluded retreat.
I choose a dilemma.
Many years ago.

Shielded from hazards.
This is the reason I used it.
Almost always.

However, a scare was issued.
We dreaded the virus.
Frequently.

No way, no how.
Not in this case.
Not right now.

Pleiades Shuffle - S

Sashay down the city street,
Sidewalks dance square sambas,
Sassy solo boogaloos
Swing steps sway then hand jive
Salsa steps won’t shuffle
Street dances stroll and stomp
Stage for cha cha congas

Author’s note: (This poem is true.  Nothing in it is falsified or purposely omitted, even to 
protect the guilty.  Written one day that I had to take a z pak and some crazy cough 
medicine (prescribed).)


Here I sit, sick in bed,
With Jimi Hendrix swirling in my head.

Such anarchistic style, 
Topped off with a fetching smile.
Talent beyond the norm,
But his life turned into the Perfect Storm....

Roses grew while 
Little Lillies likely query quite
Quietly quizzical
Destined to unfold
Lakeside listless ever leary
Bayside wishing wayside
Worrying 
Resting by gardens of unknown 
Origin to behold. Roses
Rhymes will flood the untold 
And believing the best of
Believability have began 
Outstanding oscillating oceans 
Obviously out of time have
Been omitted from the lines 
Of  sacred poetry.  Is it A sign? 
Roses....

Sweeter are the words
That cannot be said
It is so sweet 
Sour are the words
That can be expressed 
It is wonderful thou
A human being,

A voice can modify 
Various languages 
As we speak
And words can be spoken 
In different tongues 
As we roll the tongue 
The tongues have spoken,

Sweeter are the words
That can be spoken 
It is so amazing 
Sour are the words
That can be omitted 
The truth is a wonderful thing
A human being...

As the waves
Wets the sand
As the rain pours
Sinks into the soil
As the truth stares
Ask no question
Listen to the hamming of the song

As the picture slides
Tears are held back
As the face smiles
The pain is omitted
As the skin glows
Age is embraced
Should have been nor would have been

As the wind blows
Dries the land
The scarcity plough
As the essentials becomes needs
As love is granted
Fakeness is left behind
And this is real...

Place after place
City after city
I have been searching 
the liking that I deserve;
the spirit, a physique might have
snuggled.

The idea regarding his inexistence 
excites me,
Then the lies I feed myself
might subside me.

It's in my eyes, the living desire
can't thee see!

I ask if he believes in me?
I ask if I can as well?
I ask if I must await,
a guy I believe
may never walk the aisle?

Hurry, hurry Jesus
is coming
Hurry, hurry Jesus
is here
Hurry, hurry Jesus
is coming
Hurry, hurry 
you better not fear
are you ready, ready
are you ready
if not better get ready
Don't delay your soul on display
Make the wrong choices you could be omitted
It's only by His grace, that you are forgiven
Repent, receive and believe so you can be livin
Hurry, hurry Jesus
is coming
Hurry, hurry Jesus
is here

Listen to poem:

Pray for us Sinners Mother Mary 
David J Walker 

The best lies are wasted on 
The oldest sleeping priest seated

In the confessional 
As paid-for candles are 
Blown out  in the 
Wind of an opened door 

The sins omitted are represented 
And reserved  for a weekday night 
recommitted out of sight 
Of the shuttered stained-glass windows 

The liturgy turned to an elegy
Seemingly with me in mind

Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners  
    again 
         and again...
