Short Rebukes Poems

I missed the meeting, again.
‘It was important’ -
My manager rebukes me often;
But if I knew it was
I would promulgate to my whole family
In its entirety: Attend!
No questions asked!...

The smoky structure of forgotten dreams,
buried in the breath of lost denial
Stealing from sleep what life rebukes
—disguising what the coming dawn reviles

(Dreamsleep: November, 2021)...

Advisable would be for someone who endeavors wisdom to attain

Socrates' rebukes to seek rather than the applauds of fools to obtain!

His talks seemingly obsolete

His obstinacy tenacious and noisy

He rebukes, he chides, he reprimands

His acts like a performer's repertoire

His renunciations to be jeered upon

He renounces, he chucks in, he relinquishes

It is the monologue man...

Why is it so, 
that so easily, 
my mind rebukes, 
the wisdom of its days, 
and follies with jokes of ill witted humour,
which serendipidously challenge friendships hand,
casts love and joy aside in an instant,
derails the path ahead,
and makes for
a future,
alone....

You wrap yourself in a blanket of light
star sapphires in your hair
you own the essence of the night
your visage young and fair
     rebukes the  breaking of the dawn
recites a rolling rune
you yearn for evening to go on
alas the waning moon
      portends the shredding
of your cloak
the points of light grow dim
you fail at daylights fatal stroke
your leaving is a hymn....

When time became full
He became empty
Slave King Messiah
Adam's clemency.

The lion of Judah
Laid down as a lamb
Pietre Rebukes
This inhuman plan.

That night, this bread,
His flesh broken and torn
His blood spilled, drained
The wine of new dawn.

His body in tatters
Laid in the tomb.
The cloths laid aside
This tomb his new womb.

Victory rises;
So death is no more
The flesh of the lamb
will sustain the world....

Friendship changes
the tone of our
sad words
and put a fresh
smile on our
dark face ...
Friendship understands
our weakness and not
rebukes and extends
a helping hand ...
Friendship shares
unconfessed secrets,
and confesses its
own secrets ...
Sincere friendship
worths further than one
gold mine or an
oil well...
and provides us extra love
than a casual
lover...!
Friendship is a medicine
for all ills,
it's an antidote
against evil
of our souls...!...
