Short Regression Poems

Once middle class
Shredding away the 401K
Destitution looms...

Circularity and regression
married to night
their peace 
we love
and their conflict
ah is a nightmare
of September 39
of so....

mentally  
broadsided
subconscious 
unrestrained 
causes 
habitual
relapses into 
vice regression 
each time the 
conscious mind
starts to wounder...

My friend Al had a case of depression
Spent hours in psychiatric sessions
   His soul he laid bare
   The shrink didn't care
He billed even more for regression...

The ego plaintiff's tool ~ oppression,
lest the house be ruled by God with intercession,
the sameness ranks and duels with fool's content ~ obsession,
and heart's song ranks with fools, in its regression!...

Evolve or not evolve
Errors of nature, why
Everlasting damage
Exploiting each other
Earthly disappointment
Excused, never resolved
Eternal regression

Along the way of our progression,
We developed quite an obsession,
Collecting things for our possession,
For all our work it's our consession,
All that said, I have a confession,
It's for naught, it's really regression!...

there are creatures that sleep
as minerals
dream as vegetables,
wake up as animals
 to be  as criminal...
Regression in time and space...
Me, by my side
I, what God ordains me
I simply do
so I'll recognize who I am!...

blackmailing of the heart 
shakedown of the soul
regression threatened  
reversion tactics used  
estrangement loomed
extraction of emotional attachment 
gone from the world of connection  
left with nothing but memories...

Restructure
Some wording
In the dangling
Of
Meaningless
Sentences

Writing is
The Sparkle
Crackling in
Forgotten fires
Inside
The minds
Time
To shine

Wind us up
And see
Us spin
Don't
Topple 
Us over 
Regression
Never wins...

The gold of daybreak
Casting light upon the sea
The sound of the surge
And regression of each wave
Restores life and love in me

The scent of the ocean's water
Brings vitality to my mind
How lucky are the fish
Who live there all the time...

Katrina, you left your mark on our land, hearts, minds,
A mercilessly unyielding rabid force of wrath,
Those who tarried paid the highest price...death,
Regression, grieving, rebuilding,
In the aftermath of distress,
Never to forget,
And life goes on....

Fly to Hell

Freedom, is in the sky.
Land-dwellers, gazing eyes.

Your envy, proved evil.

Take away my wings
Or sever my feet, but

How dare you cage me?

Ethereal regression.
Life, now grounded.

Lucifer, I’m home, sadly.

The impression that you give off
is that of regression
unable to
withstand the need
the backlash
the challenge that only
i can provide.

Oh. Now i'm disillusioned?

Pretty words and promises
are not enough to 
sustain a soul,
especially the raw one
inside....

Did we mention, our hidden fears
Brought forth in hypnosis
Past life regression, that soul sears
Unwelcome prognosis

Going with love’s feeling
Do we need this healing
Forgotten days weaving

Deep trance session
Did we mention

Behind those sweet smile, a pain of regression.
Behind those laugh, a pain of betrayal.
Behind those fearless eyes, a tearful pain of failures.
Behind the silence, a noise of unloved heart.
For those who can't understand, it is a simple  sign of boredom.
But for those who suffered, it is a hell of fire....

Tunbridge Wells a town in Kent
Traffics woe on residends '
Takes away is the only logic
Council offices in payment frolic
Causing motorists to vent '

Vacant shops abd stagnant flow
Traffic bottlenecked no go '
Monson to mt pleaasnt back
Green as cabbage, sense a lack
Sad to note that, such is so.'...

The sound of harmonica, inminent regression 

Every curl of his hair moves you  

Moves a tireless mind thirst for change 

 

The sharpness in every guitar cord takes me back there  

Asking you to open up to me, no way to keep insisting  

When all I really want to do is baby, be friends with you...

Do you
Bake in depression
Do you
Fire an expression
Do you
Grill a digression
Do you
Boil a transgression
Do you
Eat with regression
Do you
Feed on obsession
Do you
Cook a confession
Do you
Puke out oppression
Do you
Spread a jam session
Do you
Mix a rap sensation
Or just
Make an impression
Well
Do you...

Attention America 
Can't you see 
We are not the land of the free. 

We represent 
Oppression 
Possession
regression 
And this sickens me.

Our four fathers fought for freedom
From taxes
Rulers 
And greed. 
Now, This is what makes America bleed. 

We are not the land of the free
We are the land of me, me, me....

Premier Stalin was a gangster
  an armed robber who
'became' a Marxist
  'progressive'

Murdered 120 million
  of his fellow Soviets
Seems to me his 'career'
  was regressive

                                      lovers
                            personal, intimate
                   kissing, embracing, inspiring
                home, dates, crowds, highways
          uncomforting, disregarding, distancing 
                       withdrawn, disengaged
                                    strangers

Denial of possession
Of that to which I'm drawn
My heavy heart sinks through regression
A king reduced to pawn
Sifting through them for a lesson
Splintered pieces all but gone
Something of an obsession
As blinding darkness wanes to dawn
Few shards remain - no question
Heaven sings their song
Still, I'd trade this fragile blessing
To someone I belong...

"The majority of my
friends are dead,"
she said
while retracing the steps
of her life
No need to return
to the Heights'
depression~ recession
~regression
New faces in
old places with last
names that ring a bell
facial features similar
but can't really tell.
"I ain't left a damn thing
in the Heights, except
memories. . . that live
longer than friends."

The waves of anguish touched her feet...
Oh!She could not feel the heat,,,,
Her emotions reached the pitch of saturation...
And she could get the vibe of regression,,,,
Thoughts of pessimism annihilated her fortitude...
But she merrily enclasped the pith of solitude,,,
The circumambient moarned and the sunshine began to blear...
The clouds gathered and the thunder geared,,,...
