Starin Poems | Examples


Demon of Witches Tower

An ominous water tower
Stands tall in Starin Park
Barricaded by a spiked fence
Iron clads the stained-glass windows
A steel door bolted shut
What secrets lie within its walls?

On the night of a blood moon
Witches shrouded in crimson robes
Conducted a satanic ritual
To call forth a demon from hell.
The ceremony was a success, but at a cost.
Hellborn claws slew the High Witch.

The remaining members stood firm.
Combined their strength to subdue the creature.
Calling forth the spirits of nature,
The witches configured a tower
To confine the bloodthirsty beast
So none shall meet an unfortunate end.

They say on a full moon night,
You can hear otherworldly growls
Echoing throughout the tower
Rattling the bravest of souls
Who'd dare to venture forth
To the Witches Tower.

West Coast Walking

All alone is all i've ever been
miss when houses felt like a home
now more-so abandoned
as i walk around these ghost, derealization
now im on the west coast
starin at the ocean
reminds me of these flows
Melodies surfin
my skull got deep holes
here but driftin
mold the words no play-doh
in rhymes sinkin
realest never make the studio
like waves they driftin
built it up no lego
then the blocks crashin
catch em then let go
like a fishing passion
anytime i hold em too close
they begin dyin
then the water they stay afloat
and began rottin
or anytime i try to show
they're eaten by a moccasin 
so i catch em then let em go
along this beach im walkin

Happy Thoughts

Here's a lil sum just for you my dear, 
Wishing I could feel your warmth and hold your near, got me cheesin from ear to ear, when we together I forget about my every fear. Got me feelin like I'm superman, used to doubt myself but now I KNOW I can, I can find my happy place deep within your heart, praying dearly nothing tears us apart. Your eyes like a gateway to heaven I can't stop starin, dancing to the flames of our passion with the music blarin.  Darling what is going on? It's like you've been hiding all along, I've found myself even though I was feeling lost, I'd give you my all no matter the cost, all I ask is don't play wit my mind, cause so far you seem like one of a kind, and I'd love to make you mine, for now and to the end of time.

Padre

I'm holding in my anger 
Knowing I'd die to be the strangler
Of his sour-little coward-brittle throat 
I'm just mad not literal
But when your dad's a criminal
There's a  minimal amount of father hope
It doesn't bother me no, 
But it keeps haunting me so
I will keep wandering not knowing where to go
No Padre in my home
What an odd-way to be grown
I guess God made me to be alone.
While you and your dad are sittin fishin 
I'm visitin my dad in prison 
My only mission is too inform you what you're not missin 
Because while your parents are laughing and kissin 
I'm starin havin to listen to my dad share his caring "wisdom"

Starin

imagine the bed 
imagine the desire 
and thighs 
and lips 
and destinies 
touching 
infinite ecstasy

What They Know

they always talkin.
whisperin bout my dresses and
how i always wearin em too short.
"careful or she'll have yo man,"
they always sayin.

like they know me.

they always lookin.
starin me up n down like
if they take they eyes off me
i liable to steal they shadow.
caught shopliftin once, now
they act like i gonna snatch they souls.

they don't know me.

they always hidin.
peekin at me through closed shades.
i see the meat of they eyes
peerin through they windows,
piercin my tuff skin
as i pass by they houses
pretendin not to notice--but i be knowin
what's behind them shades cause i

know them.

Gloomy Soldiers

Eyes like cynthia's brow
starin beyond the cloud
in a ruminative refine gaze
indelliblely staring skyward

the men of the shadow deviced it
like a rustling of a dry leaf
He has rustled up,
and cross the rubicon....

Man is now cruel..
Man is bestial and blustery
Man is now a canal beast..

O why ar you so cruel?
Even to the unguilty
Yes! He was not a hood
you take even the unguilty
when ravening like a wild beast...
For who to take next
In this gloomy world...

Future So Bright

I traded my soul
For control of many riches
Not all are born with wealth
One of lifes' many glitches
Maybe one day
If I pray hard and long
I'll live without a problem
And nothin will go wrong
Many times thinkin
I would be broke bound
Another person in the streets
Scrapin pennies off the ground
A bottle to my lips
Body going numb
Sleepin in a shelter
Always beggin for a crumb
Seen it many times
Don't wanna be a stat
Livin without love
In the alley like a cat
Just for one time
Wish karma would come my way
Every night thinkin
Tomorrow's another day
Thank God I've got my family
Who's there and got my back
Now at the train station
On a one way track
Mind feelin strong
Vision much clearer
Lookin straight ahead
Never glancin out the mirror
Not stoppin at the sign
Always starin at the light
With the sun shinin down
I know my future's bright

The Lonely Kid

Just a lost one out soul, starin at the wall while disaster unfolds...
Never truly knew the cream of the crop, but at this to the list, he neva knew the 
pops...
Hallow walls sit deeper around his chest and the heart's so cold, no longer can it 
flex..
Just the loneist kid from around the way, lookin for a plce, just a place to stay..
Thoughts ran through the mind to get away, far away..
Always saying being this empty is okay, by myself like the needle in the hay..
Reality is, it'll never happen..The best of the best will fly, as the worst of the worst 
dies..
All alone the chamber heart cries, cries because its wounded soul lie, between 
the depths of love and hate..
Ask how life is and the lonely kid will say,"It's a chip off the ol plate..GREAT just 
really great." Lowered eyes hold the mind of distortion and depression...as he 
walks away he mumurs "great jus great..its lik bein a fork without aplate..just 
useless"..
No footprints left where he had walked, that presence he had  was blocked.

Retro Fair

Buckfast and concrete slabs
Neds and rain and thoughts of dad.
Highflats, pigeons, pavement's hue
Subway makes me think of you.

City City City lights
stream on by
flashin neons reds and yellows,
and the bridge that takes me into town-
full of buses, truks, cars and drunks-
and junkies. 
- hangin on by a shoestring,
eyein up ma bag like it's a new thing,
starin at me like im not really there, 
just another passenger through their smothered glare.
And where it all began and should end I've no idea
It's just another city,
Another Retro Fair.

On show for the world
Seems unreal, but you've heard
The screams of the caged up people,
The People, The People, the people.
They've forgotton to keep their eyes on the prize,
They've forgotton paradise.
Too many high flats and grey hues stealin their eyes,
The people, The people,
The People
Buckfast
Concrete
Rain
Pure lethal.

Feelings After I Seen You

Let me slow it down for a bit and let my mind relapse, let me get myself together 
because my heart collapse....After I seen you I had to ask whats good, I'm tryin to 
get you set up in suburbs and get you out the hood. You don't need that in ya life 
all the shootin and fightin....You suppose to be eatin dinner by 
candlelight'n.......Out on the balcony,where the night wind can go thru your 
hair......Let all your the hataz do they thing because they say its not fair.......Then its 
that time moonlight is in your eyes glarin.....While in the background I got some 
slow jamz blarin, I'm sorry excuse miss your glossed lips got me starin.....Thinkin 
to myself and wantin to know if those lips are soft, Just this one little kiss can set 
the mood off....Wait mami, you smell the romance in the air......I'm guess in you 
can by the way ur beautiful eyes are doin that stare and got me in a daze.......As I 
look into your eyes you got me locked and losted in a maze......Of your sensual 
and sexiness.....Girl your so blessed I wanna help you put all yours worrys and 
troubles to rest.......

Kiss

mmm mmm mmm (shaking head)

Caramel chocalate brown mocha girl got my head spinnin like a
carasell
Went nautious as I saw this
chic with flawless skin often in
the mall walkin talkin street slang
like she stayed by a ghetto park bench.
Smiling as her
light shade of Mabalene covered her soft lips
playing with her sister locks so casually
Mister?
"Why you starin at shawty like dat?"
He said,
"This sista's official,
makes me wanna grab a pencil
as she poses frozen by the river
and draw a picture.
Then take that picture, to Walmart
scan it to cd and stare at her
on my computer pixels."
and I said,
"Mister you trippin..."
I think I'll just ask for a kiss. Just one kiss.
