Short Sidestep Poems

On one's journey through life,
one must sidestep the stones,
they may trip over,
by not walking the same path as before....

socks sidestep to the sock dimension,
in order to get away,
they tire of carrying our suspension,
don't like the smell they say,
who cares for the undersock:) hey.....Don Johnson...

Crows are it when it comes to brains
They blow me away, their intelligence is plain 
Check out their feats
Only missing speech
Sidestep obstacles for a crow that's insane...

"What is truth?"

When you sidestep Jesus, 
You sidestep Truth. 

When you sidestep Truth, 
You mask corruption. 

When you mask corruption, 
Truth sidesteps you.

"Truth is a Person."...

The purple ground cover came up overnight
Miraculously covering the yard in blankets
I step gingerly, coaxing winter daisies to take a hint
Sidestep a teeny white violet, a motorcycle sound in the distance....

turning words,
all the while,
sidestep the karmic kiss,
sidestep 4 sweetest bliss,
or stay n do your time,
4 some belated crime,

Listen to poem:

Heard enough 
   to know where this can lead.
Footfalls poised to step 
   in footprints etched by fate,
   are caught in flight, 
   nudged to sidestep shunned.
A foot-plant re-direction
   on a clean slate.
Making fresh footprints, 
   striven silently in the sand....

just sidestep through the ether,
sucking on a bong or reefer,
till you reach the land of sweet forget me not,
see the shades and ghosties shiver,
crossing the styx ole man river,
remembering sometimes,
 is  forgot?
Don

thank you Dr Ram great poem.

Dana 'Lynn Smiths .....

to quiet those words within me still,
to sidestep duck, don't have the will,
your verse is for the writing,
strum pluck on the exciting,
and flows the ever quill,
of Sweet Inspiration,
igniting,
till.
the bloody writing....

Simply be aware, each moment 
Be wary of stupor
In silence, heighten bliss quotient 
Make each life pulse super

As love does love throbs greet 
For pure hearts, easy feat
To feel magnetic heat

Sidestep ego snare
Simply be aware

Keep thought flow slow and heart mellow
We have a date with love
Sidestep ego cravings shallow
Make head-heart, hand in glove

Earth dream life but a play
Our joyous heart does sway
Vibrant through night and day

Feel inner glow
Keep thought flow slow

caged like a Tiger in her way,
passion, power, sensual hey,
do not cross the one in stripes,
she will rip ya, tear ya like sliced tripe,
dodge sidestep, swiftly  run away,
or p.d. will have her way,
ace of spades,  delight,
surreal, wake in fright,
death comes swift they say....

thanks p.d. 'Tiger in a cage'

What if silence too is a script we conjure,
tapping into subconscious mind, befooling
ourselves, as we sidestep the truth of what is …
   bemused by ego?

Trapped in swamps of dark desires, bound by beliefs,
how else can we exit this matrix unless
thoughts cease, that thus grace invoked, our soul’s eye sees …
   noumena within?...

You dig 
pit 
after 
pit 
after 
pit.
Then wonder why nobody comes around.
The few that tiptoe into your eggshell world  
are only there to use you...

In greener years you were just another cutter
graduating to just another pit digger...

Blood or not, I'll not dance in your self-inflicted pits..
I'll just sidestep the "hole" mess and say happy digging....

Dark though inside stars can keep you warm
But like arias— never stepping chase
This solo softens when distance far
For blacking out slowly— memory's sake.
I see you so beautiful in gray.
And I'm gray too— in your bright waxing dust;
Where I riddle away with our cause.
In this dizain, I pull on you near—
Though we sidestep a shadow love,
Falling stars flicker in eyes— my tears....

There was no sky over your 
head. You sidestep the lake 
and drown in a stream.

After carpet bombing of 
scars, you missed the moon 
and skimmed by
virtue of birth.

Lifting the stony vices 
for thanksgiving. A puppet-
dies on a string. Nobody
claims the body.

Mistrust runs deep. You
will not ride the tiger-
again. The urn contains the
ashes of blue eyes.

Blackness crawls upon the pillow,
sidestep it, dodging like a willow,
play the game of 'me no never mind,'
see it stumbling far behind,
laugh in its face our Bilbo,
like....
"me no never mind"
Don

hold your breath as demons pass,
they can't enter, still as glass,
get a grip upon your soul,
 outcast entitys till you're whole,
ah yes, alone at last...

Poetically Presented Politics
By Franklin Price
3/1/2016

Poetically presented politics
Is something I find fun
Try not to party orient
Or point to who's the one

Look for funny foolish things
That should not be a point
If not used in the current race
Could put runners in the joint

If half truths got an Oscar
And a sidestep got them two
All would be awarded one
And most of them a few...

Days are numbered!

Days of darkness without end
 Madness scourge has come again
Numbers will be known and then
Warriors, white light will defend

Evil is an evil vile 
 nasty bitter constantly
Never let the beast beguile,
 use you treat you wantonly

White of light do use it well,
 Darkness can seduce you too,
Therein lie the fires of hell, 
Dodge it sidestep it wants you

Recognising each acts as of instinct,
more oft than not seen driven by ego,
we’re unaffected, being by love inked,
for likewise we too were, not long ago,
securing gains for ourself, blow by blow,
thus we smilingly relinquish our share,
hoping fallen souls will become aware,
that there exists law of cause and effect,
so it’s best if all sidestep desire snare,
divine aligned, joyous, standing erect.

Writing A Heartfelt Poem To A Soldier 

Soldier

I am proud you went to war,
 to fight those evil ones,
May God protect you keep you safe,
Till homeward bound you come.

May you sidestep death and slaughter,
Return yet to your mum,
And find love as you oughta,
With the sound of battle done,

So changed so thrust to manhood,
To be the serious one,
Sadness dims the dark of night,
Good friends, where death has come.....
