Short Unintentional Poems

Lying on hard dirt 

Unintentional loud blurt… 

pulsating nose hurt...

The fish in the sea 
that looks for a tasty food

Put that thing away!
But I'm playing Pokemon!
Settle down and pray!...

in your tender caring eyes lies your unintentional deception

My unintentional stare
Fine sand grains everywhere
Salty sea drips from her hair

Oil’s scent fills the air...

Think First

Unintentional
intimidation occurs
insensitively.

Branch out like leaves do
Picked a clover instead of 
Looking for Unique

it's autumn time now..
missed the forest for the trees
send me ease breeze please

In writing
a poem or a novel,

the writer, 
learns about himself;

he won't always 
like what he learns,

for writing, 
is like tilling a garden:

some dirt gets 
turned up with the soil....

Come down gingerly.
The deep snow is melting.
Will wait at pass.

It was a toxic
snub unintentional.
Growing poppies.

The thinker thinks not;
in the poem of terror,
the blood will spill.

How could it possibly be so confusing
Intentionally unintentional which forces reactions
Let's be honest here
You're trying to endear
Honesty's better if you want good stuff to happen...

Trees have a kind of flexibility,
Given time they will grow
And left untouched
Branches will wrap around
With twisted, gnarled limbs,
Integrating themselves
Into unintentional abstract art.
A photographer's dream....

TIME
I am singing the song of present time
Love is sometimes an accidental and unintentional crime
Do you want to divide a number that is prime
Universe is a lullaby to chime

My heart is a little lonely home with 
confetti cannons;
It soars with smoke and sparkling stardust;
My heart pounds with no destination for the rush of everything so intense;
At the risk of an unintentional direct hit? 
I shut it down in self defense....

many a foot in month 
statement uttered  
wish that they could 
be taken back but 
they never can be 
many an unintentional
tactless remark were
thoughtlessly 
abruptly bluntly 
blurted out during 
unchecked moments 
of Freudian slips of the 
tongue...

Listen to poem:

perhaps quite unintentional
how your every word
manipulates my heart

i'm in a gilded cage
prisoner of your every whim
and you don't know it

one word from you
let me surmise
one word from you
and i can soar the skies

The yellow design of love
Lost and forgotten
Words given new meaning
Reality,  never alone
Foresaken truth
A youth divided
Her decisions unknown
Where does she go from here?

When the passion settles
In it's absence,  ash
Memory engraved
His loves remains
Unintentional freedom...

EXTRACTS
speculations

unintentional

 intensity
 dovetailed
with
uncertainty
mixed
in

watchfulness

in
breathless
sensations
linger
in
twilight
where
the

palpables

when you read a poem
consider the probability
that what seem to be chopped off phrases
and shreds of dangling sentences
are actually jagged blocks and slabs
of porous prose lumped and crammed 
in a page in a manner that's ...


           ...  not entirely


                    ... unintentional....

Days are longer, the Jays are warming up
Two months to go, baseball will start doing its stuff
Go Blue Jays Go
Win the big show
We're rooting for you, this year will be abuzz

INTENTIONALLY UNINTENTIONAL
How could that possibly be so confusing
Intentionally unintentional which forces reactions...

Facing the unknown.
Only to feel alone.
Future incognito.
Gambled tomorrow.
Things planned.
Permanent trip in hand.
Constant Worriment.
Lost merriment.
Past presents...
Recent judgments.
Uncountable days…
Endless dismays.
Agitation of mind.
Sign of the times.
An unintentional write.
Of an internal fight....

Fall in love
Done not on purpose
Usually strike in juxtaposition
Awkward situation, unpredictable 
Unplanned, yet troublesome joy
There's friction and elation of joltness
Rare blushing to flashing smiles
There's opposition in motion of oneself
Misdirection in walking, unshakable mistrust
Unintentional looking of watch
Drumbeat heart and lovable murmuring....

One of my prekindergarten students said to me this…

Mr. Lee I have a heart
And it is soft…
Do you love me?
I love you
And this is right
Isn’t it…

I said yes sir but only…Unintentional
Humanitarian
Spiritually
And Godly

This is the only righteous way to be
For I love you back righteously see

Two limericks

There is a truth I must tell and it is a whopper
I don't come from much, but married a Hopper
I'm not playing games
When I make it rain
Though unintentional, I have became a name dropper


  I have seven missed calls from Justin Bieber
 My stacks of fan mail just keep getting steeper
I hate to be vain
But can't entertain
Every filthy rich and famous creeper...

When you quit
I will grab your smoky voice 
and embrace the cyanosis.

It was not brain insult.
The blues under the eyes 
were unintentional.

Molestation was not the choice.
Your marbled face 
becomes cold and hard.

The frozen lake.
Bring the music to break
the ice. The black sun.

Unleash the stockpile
of tears. The life has taken
an ominous turn.

Rolling bodies, 
Grass stained jeans
And shouts, yips, and nips
Punctuate the air
As the child and puppy
Roll in the grass of the yard.
Squirt gun fights,
An unintentional bath,
Painted with frivolity
and water as the
Sound of laughter
And playful taunts,
Fill the air around 
The children who chase
And play oblivious
To the invisible moat
That repels the perils
Outside the yard....
