Something
to hang
my hat on
but the square peg
in the round hole
leaves the peg
and my poems
trampled
on the ground.
crack in gray city sidewalk
tiny flower face looks up
trampled by hurrying feet
beauty clings to life
If covered with salt from the womb,
Have salt in yourselves to flavor
Or be trampled by feet at the tomb,
Since your life has lost its savor.
they laid in rows
blind onlookers eyes
trampled to death
8 Dead in many injured at Travis Scott’s AstroWorld festival in Houston this weekend
Brown and sometimes dirt
Dug, trampled and planted
Seeds to grow seeds to sell
Taken for granted
Mixtures of rain and sunshine
This is precious earth
The cowboy was ready for a fight
Then realized his pants were to tight
He couldn’t pull out his gun
Turns, then tries to run
Got trampled and lost his eye-sight
spat on, scrunched, trampled
unimaginably torn
used, misused, abused
we care not; for there is want
and it remains valuable.

Traditional Tanka contest
The glass of a brown
house portrays the apricot
clouds from which peek a chilled blue,
and the docks the tints
of trampled sand- mocha hues-
as a new oil painting.
She came to me, hurt me, and destroyed me
Total obliteration
She trampled on my soul

*SILVER TAILED FOX*
silver tailed fox
running from silent trigger
trampled and fell---
~~~
the grasshopper
hops along the fern,
with long legs---
by;p.d.
Another day and I'm still riding my camel
Get there eventually avoiding life's hassles
Slow but sure
Avoid detours
Some temptations and your ideals get trampled
Another day and I'm still riding my camel
Get there eventually avoiding life's hassles
Slow but sure
Avoid detours
Occasional temptations your ideals get trampled
Stop changing…
And you will come to
A most unsavory
Form of death
Neither here
Nor beyond
Your spirit trampled
—by a thundering heard
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2018)
Just because others are down in the mouth
Don't let it affect you, be a big strong mouse
Lead by example
Don't get trampled
Show 'em how to grin and the fires to douse
Just because others are down in the mouth
Don't let it affect you, be a big strong mouse
Lead by example
Don't get trampled
Show 'em how to grin and the fires to douse
Just because others are down in the mouth
Don't let it affect you, be a big strong mouse
Lead by example
Don't get trampled
Show 'em how to grin and the fires to douse
Honey coloured blossom
dawn-to-dark
pensive belle
bear the palm
tremulous branches
moves back and forth
toppling flamelike
beauty by the road
golden hue forsaken
trampled by feet
Here lies the bookie Reginald Dodds,
Trampled by a horse, what were the odds.

Trampled soul,
crumpled bad,
in pain,
and pretty sad,
life doles out,
goodies few to a few,
only upon a shout,
others turn hoarse,
trampled,crumpled,
till the soul,
feel as if in a bad maul.
Watch my nothingness.
Watch the emptiness cover my being.
Watch my feelings of suicide recover again and again.
Watch my spirit get trampled over and over, waiting for peace.
But peace never comes.
Where does the lightning stop
And the penny drop
And when does falling to earth
And child birth
Amount to this
And where are the friends to ignite the bends
Along these trampled streets of woe
.
Under cloth of night these eyes do ache
Holding hope in breath of life
Take back the way of the wind
Over trampled trails in time
Meandering in my mind
Included but not secluded
To repeat an ancient rhyme
Broken hearts find new love
Broken hearts shattered
trampled on by deception
tears falling like rain
eyes dried by new love rising
heart smiles like the shining sun

thick trees engulf the hidden spell;
soft streams collide on risen ground;
so much, so fast, so far we go —
then leave the remnants of the trampled dust.
–Zumwalt (2011, posted with permission from zumpoems.com)
the sea rolled away
the little girl wonders if
it went down a drain
her mother screams "Run!"
as a tsunami erupts -
sand castle trampled
