Thievery Poems

Kaalnek Kuiken Is Gone

Two Fridays ago, a fowl thief 
Ruled over hearts, pets, relationships
Broke in (burglary) during my absence
Took Mr. Five (her half- brother) for his unearned pot
I just pray Kaalnek, our baby & pet, was not
Twice victim of a teen thief, safe in my hood
Why? The questions in south Africa, coddling crime

II: We forgive but Justice is

Thievery of Beckoning Frights

Pages of white lust
are recalling Summer moons
tugging a retreating 

roar. God of Insanity:
objects personified shaped
to impact reason 

in his senseless world.
Hands reach within closed eyelids-
chis luring the heart.

Cancerous pain seeps,
then tunnels. A maroon creek
rushing through sand-colored

walls of leek-like tissue.
It is winding, and ebbing, 
pushing the thunderous 

beat of muscle welded,
torched by the pagan Creator.
His opaque

Thievery
Written: by Miracle Man
5-10-2019


Consequences exist for each action they take,
And some will pilfer things hidden from sight.
Their misguided actions became a huge mistake,
Once truth is known that their hands are slight.


Luke 8:17
K. J. V.
For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest;
neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

Poetry Thievery

Any good judge and jury would convict me
Slam the door shut, toss out the key
High crimes and misdemeanors in the first degree
Caught in cahoots with poetry

Armed with pen and paper in hand
Stealing from me all that I have
Until my muse says there's nothing left
Empty's the till inside my pounding head

I'll sing like a stool pigeon

Hijacked By Lexicon Thievery

This poem may get into trouble,
The world wants identity double.
Attempting to culture commonality,
The world champions individuality.

Theft of language has become all too common,
Yesterday’s use today identifies one a strawman.
Definitions change, words take on other meaning,
Often toward groups one way leaning.
 
At our language different groups continually hack.
In the case of *****, African American, now Black.

Thievery

in locking away our heart....... 
                                  we become the thief of our own happiness


This poem is my reaction to Casarah's latest poem.

Nature's Thievery

Fast rising waters
wash over shattered shelters
stealing memories.

Thievery

4 walls, 3 windows, 1 door, and 2 locks: what for?
When evil remains unleashed 
And penetrates even the most solid of barriers.

Is there no salvation?

Is there no reprieve from the ugliness of
An angry soul lashing out against invisible foes
Manifested on the innocent?

Windows decorated with bars.
And peering through their coldness mournful eyes stare
~ veiled with the
