Throw away the light, the definitions, and say what you see in the dark,
when the sky full of silences stretches like black velvet over thoughts,
and each star becomes an unspoken word, a secret of the universe,
while the night breathes its mysteries like a sea swirling with dreams,
where shadows dance to the rhythms of an old,

Premium MemberThrow Away The Key

Go ahead....
and throw away the key,,,  
There's nothing left inside my head .....
of my sanity.

If only I could change... 
what it is I have become, 
and return to the beginning....
of where I started from.

But I know I made my choices....
the dye has long been cast.... 
There will be no escaping......
the actions of my past.

Premium MemberThere Are No Throw Away People

If Jesus Christ were walking among humans on earth today,
he would believe that no suffering person would be thrown away.
He would tell there is a lack of compassion, he would warn us
about having  a lack of constructive affirmative action.

He would walk the hallowed halls of the United States Congress and petition the right to

Throw Away Bathwater, Not Baby

Gratitude attitude grow
Peacock attitude away throw
Though temptations line up in a row 

Pointless, heartless any soul you to hurt
Under no circumstances invective blurt
Because so doing grows you curt

Achieving trinkets, reaping limpets
As you blow trivial trumpets
Deriding, riding, restless strumpets

In your city where contempt
Fashionable in an objectional attempt
To parade low grade hair unkempt

For aeons under neon lights
Illuminating

Throw Away Poem

a throw away poem
is easy come, easy go
after it's had its say 
pack it up toss it away

the meaning isn't deep
nor vocabulary wide 
a throw away poem
will never tax the mind

a throw away poem
is not meant to torment the soul
is easy on the eyes
feels almost like home

brings nothing to the table
except for rhyme and flow
that's

Think, Before You Throw Away

I have a great idea. 

Do you know all of these 
big business fat cats, 
roaming around in their 
two thousand, three or 
even maybe five thousand 
tailor made suits? 

I think what they SHOULD do 
instead of wasting their money, 
throwing it away to gigantic corporations, 
that, in my mind, 
think they don't need,

The Scrapbook That I Can'T Throw Away

Still frames with dead eyed memories.
Magic marker’d promises;
open ended lies
that I can’t seem to forget.
No matter how far I bury this thing
inside my closet. You always find your 
way back, with a smile blooming
like a drunken rose. 
Fingers run to the edge
of our little world’s grave yard;
flipping the nights over..
Trying to find the picture;
 a

Throw Away Poetry

how can i say this?
what are the words i can use
to tell you, without your 
feelings being hurt?
people. there is a menu
just to the left.
near the bottom is a link
which will show you the things
good poetry should never have.
they're called cliche's.
though the list isn't final,
and will never be
because as times change,
so do we and our

Recycling a Throw Away,Revised

5-16-2012  Recycling a Throw Away,Revised
Searching over a throw away,thinking lately about you,
Before I had nothing more than  time to lose,
You are not gone ,though- in my heart, I'm often alone,
Remembering you down by the falls,even as a memory,you call,
Crying rhymes on the radio,getting up from a fall,
Bringing you back is more difficult than

Throw-Away Child

The Throw-Away Child

Heaven above shine down on us
We need your light to guide
Our days as we make our way
Through times of testing, times of trial
In hours of need, years of pain
As we witness the Throw-Away Child

Why, oh, God does such a thing
Exist in your world? Why should any
Feel as such; so worthless, never amount to

Life that gives us love, gives us hope, gives us truth
Life that grants us strength, grants us power, grants us youlth
To life that takes the pain while forcing minds to fade to hay
To Life that is the dreadful gift to much rist to throw away
