Unconsidered Poems | Examples


Aftertaste

the inhibitions fade
a slow, deliberate ritual
some beautiful
mostly terrifying

the glass, a chalice
cradles the forbidden
each drop, a fiery kiss
flowing when the world tilts

diving into the velvet nectar
foreknown implosion 
indulgence ignites 

amber tides cascade
over softened edges
an eager palate 
laughter bubbles up
a joyous release  
rhythmic intoxication
and the world spins

kaleidoscopes of color
unconsidered judgements
a hazy fog settles 
self spite to commence 

unrestrained truths 
hidden beneath the surface
spew candidly in chaos
a marionette dancing 
self strung schemer 

with every clink
memories 
brimming with stories untold,
fragmented like shattered glass
thousands of jagged shards 
stained plentiful 
disappointment

a lingering ache
bitter emptiness 
the cruel hand of reality
Subdues and suffocates
disillusioned symphonies 
of joy

shackles to sobriety

Hours To Fill

The day has many hours to fill
And most are unconsidered,
So often, we’re surprised by
All the time that we have frittered.

Yet sometimes, there’s a giant gap,
With minutes that are waiting
To see what we’ll resort to,
What ideas are percolating.

Most often, it’s the most mundane –
The phone, TV or reading
That makes the time slip quickly by,
The empty hours receding.

Before we know it, day is done;
We prep for life tomorrow 
When, likely, we’ll look back and wish
For minutes we could borrow.

Premium MemberThe Fiddler

A young man came from Sandy Hook
To play his fiddle for our sheer pleasure
Scottish reels and an occasional Irish folk song
From memory, for little he gladly entertained
Though enormously talented, he suffered
From a debilitating disease of mind long
Unconsidered by family, friends, teachers, all
Despite his blighted social skills and
Sometimes strange and inexplicable behavior
We did not comprehend his innermost needs
No one became acquainted with his inner child
No one reached inside his mind defiled.

We learned he discovered the Internet
Which, in time, would be his undoing.
As the story read, he was communicating
Suggestively with someone unknowingly
So, the law came and carried him off to jail
No one seemed the wiser for his immaturity.

I went to see what I could do to help
But I was much much too late to intervene
In the middle of the night he had played
A few Scottish reels and an Irish folk song
Entertained the block of the incarcerated
And in the darkness took his own life.

Premium MemberBaby Birds

You told me
when I nearly died
how weird it felt
to feed me
how agape I waited
mouth open wide
for the next spoonful
like I did as a baby

Hungry little bird

You told me
when you were dying
you didn't see me till
days after I was born
years of guilt
that we did not bond 
unwed teenage moms
in those days
unconsidered 

Hungry little birds

You told me
when I was dying
for your approval
that I was not pretty enough
not strong enough
ridiculed me
insulted me
cut me off

Hungry little bird

I told you
when you were dying
when you asked me
why
that it was all ok
that we just were who we were
and that I loved you
that it's    ok
mom it's ok

Hungry little bird

A decade since
you passed away
I live with 
echoes of your words
and only now
I realize 
that for your love
I will always be

Your hungry baby bird

A Daughter's Protector

quick! grab the soft rose
your hand now aching, bloodied
thorns unconsidered

life's dream isn't always what it suddenly seems in ice cream's melted hope
not when a yearning man is twisted; turning, churning curdles sweet milk sour
carnal captivity, the new little girl's horror, where slavery spreads her legs
life's little trick, survivals mindless instinct, plays it's vicious, ace in the heart card

a zygote's military resolve
an embryo doesn't consider
why

precious life somehow swims forth in a plastic, kiddie plunge
the wet nurse has no degree, but life hangs, by an umbilical balance

dreams are reality thwarted by circumstance

time bides, love does not divide, it grows feral strong with fowl gazes ever watching
forced sharing, twisted family time, memories remain, an anchor in deepest abyss
forward, for a daughter's faint, possible, distant. infinitely small, maybe someday
light, a pinprick, blind chance, endured, survived, conquered with love alone, hero

Hurry, I'm free now!"

Main

Straight path to the strip club, prostitutes showing me love, prostitutes granting me clingings, Man I must admit I Love this, their ****** husky, yet I treasure a girl, I order her bloated pearls, she's no papergirl, she urges sensuality every day of the week, Unconsidered if I'm weak, belated nights kissing and clinging this is what significant other's do.

Premium MemberThey Break Apart

Loves and lovers are parts in a play 
	acted from need or passion, 
	necessity or happenstance or duty 
	or merely not to be lonely for a while. 
	Loved in considered or unconsidered ways, 
	given or withheld,
	perhaps with tenderness, 
	perhaps terror,
	conscience or unconsciousness,
	in dark rooms lit by a single bulb, 
	in the sunlight of bluets and corn flowers, 
	on a stage, with a script and other actors, 
	an audience, and the potential 
	for success or disaster.
	If terrible enough or not attended to, 
	the play closes after a single performance, 
	finished almost before it’s begun.
	It may enjoy a long run, 
	the audience growing larger with each recital. 
	Most though become mere skeletons 
	draped with the dry skin of life, 
	a dragging-on rote performance bereft of passion.
	They end this way.  
	They break apart. 
	They just do.

Transformer

Transformer...



 I am so sorry I tend to whisper to my self while the wings on my back enfold me in my idiocy and bust in a furl of feathers and fire.
 
My authentic halo falling broken reinforcing my thoughts on transformations... 

My lush lies crept up into me whispering to you my secrecy and my merry go round patterns...
 I was adapted to serous sabotage and unconsidered volcanic eruptions... Having nothing to react to I made my own quake...
 
i deserve everything. 

But for you to say I can't feel is something that just shocked me at my core... 
But then again what should I expect? 
Secret boyfriends? 
are you kidding me...? 
But then again what should i expect... 
I gave you a reason to be suspicious a reason to say those things... 

With my viscosity on the subject I realize I have to be punished... and it has nothing to do with you...

Father

FATHER



Misleading intentional deception,
loathing the complexity of risk and uncertainty.

Thoughts of contingent outcomes, minimizing losses,
analytical human behaviour.

The Army Ruler demands respect, obedience,
forgets the hurtful unconsidered words.

Tradition, history, status, all weigh heavily,
turdus merula cries in the storm.

Obstructively determined to prevail,
threats and ultimatums are heavy handed.

He can hear, but refuses to listen,
the heart is cold and concrete.

Sterling coins cannot buy love, obedience,
he creates his own demise.

Whispers in the wind are chosen words,
a child is gone forever.

Sufferings

Do you believe me?
My love and hate,
Always is motivated
To confirm my belief.

Considered on unconsidered,
Activation of development,
Consistence of growth,
Remarks of my confirmation.

If you don’t understand me,
You will understand me. One day,
If you understand me
That’s my belief.

You will encourage me,
When you will feel proud,
A respect of my deeds,
A patience of my consciences.

I work for your easiness,
A softness of relaxation,
I approach to Increase happiness,
Who has no sufferings?
