A Throwaway Poem

A throwaway poem


This is just a throw away poem;
Take it in or leave it to be.
I know exactly where this poem is going;
Some poems are just thrown away.
Thrown away, to you, from me.

Premium Member Broken Rain

Broken rocky garden, overgrown, torn
Bending her splintered hope, divided pain
Token throwaway cuts, discarded scorn
Spending relief's pennies, enticing rain

Skimming

SKIMMING surface like glass tight thin ice below a whirlpool pulls in too deep an elapsed Soul skimming the face of words left in neutral swirl vortex shallow low down beneath Scroll throwaway pointless empty Hollow © Kim van Breda—17 January 2016

Premonition

Throw around legs
Throwaway hair
Biting her tongue
Tapping the chair

Dinnertime psychology
Filling her frayed mind
Undigested memories 
Too bitter to be confined

Eighteen years 
Blurred as if one
Opaque footsteps
Of a misbegotten son

“Dessert, mom?”
“No thanks, dear.”
Her plate is empty
Her conscience clear

Premium Member Puppy Love

A wag said that puppy love
gave him kittens night and day.
He loved a girl in Weymouth,
but became a throwaway.

Premium Member Her Rocky Garden

Broken rocky garden, overgrown, torn
Bending her splintered hope, divided pain
Token throwaway cuts, discarded scorn
Spending relief's pennies, enticing rain
Spoken dulcet song, kindness softly born
Tending today's seeds for tomorrow's gain
Still plant optimism in future Mays
Will grant definition to her last days.

The Work

Some adjust to the plow,
they learn to shape their lives
around what they push through.

Assembling plastic throwaway things
blind hands adjust.
The Buddha breaks rocks
in a quarry, adjusts his mind to emptiness.
Jesus
paints roads signs. Teaches the law
of infinite directions.

Most harness themselves
to the unseen work within the work,
do what we must do to break away
from a hitched-up life.

Back Beat Transcended

Don't look back

In this theater of modernist art

And wish what was

Worth being hung

Worthy off the space on
wall and hanging holes
it was hung

Patronage in thrones have
spent well earned coin to see

In order to say they have

Been kneeling before like the
grace of ages 

Was and is till this day 

The artist is remembered for

Yet never wishes they we're

Because it was a throwaway

A B-Side track 

Never expected to attract

But somehow did
