Much preferable to deprive the body of material goods than the soul of moral precepts!

Preferable it is one's destiny cheerfully to embrace
save to be compelled his life's lot grudgingly to face!

Preferable to have controlled narcissism
than having low esteem...
Controlled we can perform
merit things... low esteemed,
we are useless to ourselves... !

Was once a display
The sudden eye ambition
Trusty appendage
The hind to the heel
Broken in to much appeal
A preferable feel
Inspired by Raul Moreno’s “still life” contest!

Preferable for me it is, my love,
A violent storm in the open
To brave
Than
A single tear of pain in your eyes
To confront!

Much more preferable it is for the one who really doesn't know
His ignorance to hide than attempting his competence to show!

Preferable is for Man, on
Soft clay, his opinions to write,
For
Easy to erase them will be
When the truth he finds!

MUCH PREFERABLE
Much
Preferable for me
Would be,
In the whirlpool of your
Hopelessness to
Vanish
Than
Solace to seek
Into another woman’s
Embrace!

Suffering injustice on the earth plane is a
Very painful experience
Yet,
it is much preferable than to commit injustice
for
it would be a torturous experience in heaven

Both in you and both are together,
Solo isn’t a word for it,
Cruel world doesn’t have place for one of it,
Devil is better for scoundrel,
And so is an angel better for angels,
Disney world ain’t real,
As soon as you believe it’s preferable for tranquility.

BROKEN STEPS
they had some good times
days not too hot nor too cold
cold preferable
unless denied the warm room
that place under broken steps
once while cleaning up
insulation was dumped
‘neath those broken steps
and Lord knows how many cats
had blessedly found a home

What incorrigible means is not able to
be corrected, improved, or reformed.
Trump Truly Has Tendency
Trump does have tendency to be deplorable,
And at same time is also terribly incorrigible;
Bad news bearer;
Been holy terror,
Always thinks he is preferable and adorable.

Limerick
Crystalline marbles streaming;
Pouring from clouds; rainstorm.
Lightening flickers in the dark.
Night brings the dark;
Hides moonlight streams;
Such rage, have storms.
On the ocean waves, storms
Show their tempers, dark;
Angry waves leave streaming debris.
A simple storm, without an angry, dark temper is preferable.

a child is snatched
life forms brutalised
earth is a dark realm
where all of us dwell
feeling fear overwhelm
within the dark abyss
when all hope seems lost
our eyes turn heavenward
but it may be preferable
if they first turn inward
law of cause and effect
inevitably comes into play
but for now we weep tears
bleeding, bleeding, bleeding
paralysed by our worst fears

Sometimes I sit and wonder why
I can move how I like but cannot fly
I watch things in the air go by
But still I sit and wonder why
I don’t bark; I’m not a dog
I don’t croak; I’m not a frog
But snore? I sleep like a log
It’s preferable to a healthy jog
Sometimes I think that maybe that
When I listen to all the chittychat
The reason I can’t fly? I’m fat!!
A pampered, well loved kitty cat.

I do not know?
Everyone I've ever loved
Has left their mark on my soul
On my body
On my mind.
Every time I speak
Everything I type
Every song I listen to
Everything
Without my loved ones
Who am I?
Without me
They will still be them
But without them
I am nothing
Is it too late?
Too late to be me
Or will I simply be them
Until I die
Being them is preferable
To being me
But I must be me

People will never believe in you
If you do not have self belief
They will never respect you
If you do not have self respect
But if you like to be recognised
Then you have to recognise them first
Expect less and whatever they say accept all,
To people this attitude is most preferable
Do not ever try to judge any one
Whatever they are, they are
For their actions, remember,
They need not your approval

A childhood summer
leaks away, taking with it
its raft of unanchored memories.
Thoughts grasps at the cold hands
of the never-was.
Time and age question.
The long buried emerge,
a would-be history
exposed as a replacement fiction;
one stolen from an imagined life.
A borrowed sunshine -
yet still preferable to the head-dreams
that deny both fact and fairytales,
and open doors long nailed shut.

big bright green spider

Poetry notes:
5/21/2018
I parked my car and there's a stare down between me and spidey. I didn't know when I opened the door if it would drop inside the car (not good) or outside (preferable). I was only held hostage for 3 or so minutes until I made my move. Success! Both of us walked away from the car in different directions :)

In a world of chaos there is no sense
In a world of pain no goodness
Downtrodden and browbeaten
In a world full there is loneliness
Shadow so long and dark
Scars run deep and bleeding
Hurting and scared
Confusion runs thru the night
Time stands still and hope is gone
Life is without meaning
Sorrows abound all around
Alone and lonely
Not willing to go on living
Death preferable to the suffering
Darkness envelopes lights fade
Gone forever more.

Dramatic Verse
Only life teaches
that living can be finer than dreaming...
But not always...
That hope cannot be lost,
that faith serves us to move...
It teaches that winning is preferable than losing,
but learning to lose helps us to win...
Learning is a mission to evolve and evolve
is to carry the mission...
The sea since love is a solution, and unloving
and die...
Everything life teaches, but many do not prefer to...
That's why they don't live either... they just hibernate... !

Prose Poetry
If you plant the seeds of love
You'll reap gorgeous flowers of love
If you spray the seeds of hate
Many plants and trees
Will blossom flowers of hate
And you won't like the fate
Nobody enjoys death and miseries
Ugly and dirty flowers
And people with ill manners
Love is the answer
Hate is a toxic cancer
Violence is unacceptable
Peace is divine and preferable.
