Short Sufferers Poems

Sometimes Sisyphus may be envied amain
by long lean spell sufferers, no less.
Because at least he could time and again 
enjoy his euphoria near success....

We torment our fellow sufferers
To please the sharer of the Rabbit
In the desperate hope
That our masquerading
Will warrant us a piece
Of the craved Meat!...

i posted this poem and got a hundred instant hits ~ my wrist’s sore 

next time i need self inflation ~ i’ll tap my muse and beg a bit more

and carpal tunnel sufferers out there ~ these monokus don’t ignore...

I meat mail the needy
paste my smiles generously
on those who know not love
and serve prayers at tables
in all feasts I attend asking
Almighty to come down
but there is no change
the world of sufferers I see
still expanding, frightening...

THE GLAMOUR

Liberation struggles
Were recorded
And stored
As a value
Of this democracy
And …
I saw the hunters
Of this freedom!
But now …
Most are
The vultures 
Who are holding
The glamour
Of the
Sufferers!

SORE are the pains of the sufferer 
who is at pains with his and her wrong choices
Screams and yells at the bottom of their lungs
Hollering at those uncaring with deaf ears

white lilies
line my front walk
soldiers
in rank and file
commemorating
the loss of
mothers
their children,
and dads
their children
to COVID,
sufferers in our
little community
of
Ashland, Kentucky.

Misbegotten pair, 
two-faced aggravation, 
the seduction of sweet solace 
or the inarticulation of despair. 

Uneasy 'neath the spell of peerless rapture, 
false respite from the ravages of fear, 
or defenseless and imperilled 
by a sadness that is too extreme to bear.

                    ********

...for all bi-polar sufferers....

We need intimacy with ourselves
to be able to listen
the soul of the sufferers...
The bleating of the suffering lamb,
understand the pain of those who cry,
hear the laments of the wretched,
read the good book thought
that proves the divine wonder,
so we can read ourselves
and dialogue with the silence
to reach fullness of being
divine creature...!...

Point of fear always here
Point of fight ever a good night
Point of FLIGHT steady on height

Struggle strong 
Mightier the mightiest mighty
Sufferers  busily ignite the  night

Coffee sugar  scream
Nightmare plightmare
Safety,  face me DREAMS

Of money reams
To have not is hard
My goodness  God

Adrenaline dreams
Heavy on the heart
Have PEACE OF MIND...

            Time is too slow
          for the anxious sufferers...
           Too quick for the fearful.
            A flash for the greedy
             and celebratory acolytes,
             further than a penalty,
             for those who lose it...

             For those who live in love,
              is always immortal
               and infinite...!...

A good man of great stature 
A presence so strong
Head of a company, head of the family
The place he belonged

Now he sits in a care home
A toy cat cradled in his arms
Imprisoned  in his own mind
Void of worry or harm

Life is a blessing that is true
Yet is tainted with such a sad side 
Like the sufferers of devastating dementia 
Victims of the Long Goodbye!

never ending walls
No opening to escape
claw marks on the brick

infinite walking
excercise for the sinners
we're carving out hell

three guards stand watching
mocking the lame sufferers
spitting at our feet

Let a shallow hold fixate your mind.
We found something quite precious this time.
A darkness pitch black, yet bitter and sweet.
You never know what creatures you'll meet.
There's drunkards,lost pedestrians, anointed sufferers, people so dark.
Find yourself searching inside your own heart.
For something more precious, less dark and more kind.
This is how humanity shall spend the rest of their lives....

Thy never punishes but nourishes
Wisdom out of boredom
It's the outbreak of fellows
With merely civilized mellows
Who brought Corona to verona
And made coward with Covid
Nature freaks survival to revival
From vicious to virtuous
Choice of voice on good over bad
To raise against or praise...
Break it or else u fake 
Pray for not to be prey
Are the sufferers the doers...?
It's an ALARM, not a charm!!...

Mental health stigma within the military
Injuries you just can't see
Many sufferers have taken their own lives
Leaving behind families husband's and wives

In honour of those who ended there plight 
It's time to show this isn't right
Awareness, look out for each other
Brothers and sisters from another mother

R.I.P all those gone before
With your passing opens the door
Mental health awareness is a must
Or your eyes will fill with dust...

Calendared nature admits
		winter has come and gone
		and makes no apologies
		for lingering chilled moments;

		The audacious mendacity of spring
		has clamped down a frost-bite 
		on the wolfing climatic ignorance
		of ignoramuses who wallow in deceit;

		Albeit it all, the cosmic deceit of nature
		cannot be ignored by seasoned sufferers 
		and their sinusitis chains of oppression:

		Now the winter of our discontent
		must yield to a spring’s new awareness....
