Poetry Psyche

Pondering perils

of writing poems in rhyme,

    it plunders my mind.

A poet's plaguing problem

so I propose to pen prose.

Blessings Be

22
I don’t know
How to go on
Caught in the depths
Of depression
Its alcohol
Plaguing me still
But it’s a far cry
From where I was
And who I used to be
And now it’s let’s
Let the blessings be

Samsaras

Basking in emptiness
reality takes a back seat
dream flight discarnates
dependent origination
karmic kisses enclosed



(Title--term used by ancients to describe
negative karmic patterns passing from body
to body, plaguing one's earthly psyche.)

Desperate For Ownership

The need to love and be loved,

to be patented and acquired for belonging

cherished,

relevant,

appreciated,

wanted,

and owned

resumes magnified

plaguing her mind

for comfort

almost

immediately

despite and even after the heartbreak.

Alliteration Allowed

Beautiful babies blowing bubbles,
Terrible teens tempting troubles.
Parent's plaguing problems perplexing
Viewing various values vexing.

Doctors diagnose diseases.
Potent potion prescription pleases.
Debating difficult diagnosis,
Desperately diluting doses.

The Edge Of Tomorrow

Hiding behind
each veil of deception
 a reckoning awaits

Looming above
the sea of destruction
a fugitive of fate

Grasping for breath
on the edge of tomorrow
the future air most thin

Plaguing the weak
adrift in their sorrow
— the DNA of sin

Apathetic

Passionless I see each new day arrive and depart.
I shall not falter upon any deed.
I betray not
Why is this feeling plaguing my mind and spirit?
I was never insensible to my deity.
Or ever will be.
Listless I lay upon the life before me and beyond.
Apathetically I continue with a plea.
I will awake.

Minichu's Dilemma

restless thoughts drain my mind
to stay or leave, a choice plaguing  dead of night
fate...unkind 

one dream on hold 
while hours invade without delight--
I'm cold 

coins tossed
nothing goes right--
lost!

restless thoughts drain my mind
while hours invade without delight
lost!

Dull Enthusiasm

Refined on blazes
of judgments
haphazard
yesterday's zest
is a fortress
of embers

memorials burn
surrendering souls
into the fumes
plaguing your
emotions the
cinders awoke

allow the zeal
of the darkness
nudge you
to view
the yesteryear is near
a dimness &
not what
will last

Hurricane Katrina

It was like a
Circus arena
The arrival of
Hurricane Katrina
Coming down on Us
like Ike did Tina
Merely, plaguing Us
with emphysema
Which couldn't be cured
by FEMA
So, what were We to do
with No redeemer
Except to keep dreaming
like SELENA
Leaving Our Loved Ones to
put on the high beamer
When JESUS, Our Souls,
did subpoena

Word Challenge

There it is, another contest
 setting words to test
 used and versed or rhymed
 by mind set speculations refined.

A list of connected integrations
 plaguing my mind in stagnation
 without a hope of intervention
 by someone's desire and dedication.

There they lay
 calling out to my dismay
 when nothing gathers them to phrase
 this inner loss to malaise.

Confidence


Far from shy;
               w  a  l  k  s ten feet tall,
divorced
               from plaguing doubts
and anxiety.
               Steadfastly 
b  e  l  i  e  v  e  s 
               in himself,
and boy,
               does it show!
It's powdered
               all over his face;
there's a pep in his step.
               He...
exudes confidence!

Weeps ! Weeps ! Weeps

weeps ! WEEPS ! weeps
whispers my heart
while I lay in bed
mind powered with thoughts-

weeps ! WEEPS ! weeps
people dying around the world
who don't have a place to sleep
whose everyday thought is death-

weeps ! WEEPS ! weeps
falling bombs around the world
hunger plaguing brothers
famine engulfing-

weeps ! WEEPS ! weeps
you enjoy the sleep
and others are dying
and i start weeping-

Untitled

Always beautiful, to me,
the sunrise holds no more power
than your smile does over me.
Fragile, like glass,
I'm still useless
helpless
and watching from afar-
an unhelpful little malady
plaguing a broken, fragile heart.
You're always beautiful to me
and it pains me
to see you cry;
I'll be standing here,
at the side,
waiting for my love-
a lonely child with a lonely heart,
dreaming of a life
without heartbreak.

Stifled Pain

Can't breathe
 
silently suffocating
 
as the guilt devilishly strangles me
 
confusion, distrust, infinite questions
 
swirling around in my head
 
like the numbers in a bingo drum
 
chasing, haunting
 
the thoughts permeate day and night
 
plaguing me in my dreams
 
there is no escape
 
my silent screams echo inside
 
can no one hear?
 
I speak
 
No, not now
 
the pain still remains
 
behind the smile.

Smoke

The burning embers tuned his fiddle
Hiding in a smoke of grey
Who’s tune was heard but quietly 
Beckoned dancers in a cloud of smoke

The tune seemed lovely and the dance alluring
I find myself within their trance
My white washed silks have long since changed
Tarnished with the dancers kiss

She chokes me with her shallow love
Plaguing stench in my attire
As dreams pass by of fresh clean air,
Again I wake within her arms

BUSY.I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S

WON'T TAKE THEM BACK..NOW MY MIND
CAN SLEEP IN PERFECT PEACE.WITH
YOUR ANGELS SURROUNDING ME......

A PERFECT NIGHTS REST..............

Stolen Innocence

Swiftly moving water washing away his sin,
memories of the last time plaguing me once again.

A child’s sweet innocence, ripped away in vain,
endlessly hiding the deeds, eternally hiding the pain.

Never let the others see the guilt suspended deep within,
when asked what is the matter force an outward grin.

Tell not of this dirty secret for the shames to much to bear,
Let the water wash away the filth and pretend it was not there.

Memories of the Past

I reminisce, I miss
The olden days
When we could just play,
No cares in the world
Just what we could do
So that we may have fun
And we would just
Whirl and twirl and
Be blissfully happy
Not having to worry
About what is to come
But to live in the moment
And be joyously well,
No negative thoughts
Or hurt plaguing us,
Only a good day
And a good way to spend it
These are the times
I reminisce, I miss

Labyrinth

A long night without sleep,
Dreams lay waste to silence,
Scenes empty, moments lonely,
Thoughts wishful, action passive.

Shackles of redundancy,
A cycle, round and round,
A blast from the past eternal,
Plaguing every sleep.

Nights are not for work,
But the 'mares of fears,
Haunted by the stagnation,
Of old past, strong and near.

Hidden talents, pouring hopes,
Promises of good times,
Even when they come,
Good times don’t last.

God Said, Checkmate

God said, Checkmate Written; by Tom Wright January 1st 2015 I was surviving in life, just doing my thing, Only one day to realize, my life, was a mess. In life’s chess game, God had my attention, With life in the balance, I dared not to guess. With worry plaguing me, and spirit bound, I accepted Jesus Christ as my living answer. By repenting, my sins, now under his blood, Made the news less important, of my cancer;

Christian

You say you are a Christian.  How do I 
know?  How can I tell.   When a look is 
wrongly perceived, or a word is 
misunderstood, do you have the
latitude to have an attitude?

Christian, what makes you different?
What sets you apart?  Where are you 
when I'm stumbling and fumbling 
through life?  Where are you when
festering, pestering issues are plaguing
my life?

Christian, where are you?  Show me the 
way to go.  After all, aren't you supposed
to know?

My Ailment

Such a tormenting and hateful act,
In the heavens a very accepted fact, 
Love torments more than a tormenting plague, 
With such meaning awfully obscure and vague,

Once so pure thought to be,
Used in anger plaguing eternity,
Now a sin tormenting a pious fool,
A sin so aloof and used as a tool,

Tool of humans used as a weapon,
To lure, trap, and massacre in just a second, 
With nothing to lose but their own empathy,
Making hearts so sore existing solely for cruelty.

The Stolen Beauty of Winter

Where are the pure white fields of moonlit snow?
Where did the green fir trees holding crystal white mounds go?
Where are the perfect snowflakes that wisp slowly downward?
What I see now in front of me can only be called absurd

All I see is brown and gray slush, plaguing my entire sight
For this winter I dream I would surely give my best of best of fights
This stolen winter by the machines of these present modern times
How I wish them to disappear at the drop of a single dime
