Unethically Poems | Examples

Cruelty

One Garden City

The ordinary life 
and the passage of one thousand 
full moons.

Cresting a culture of violence;
when a trident 
bleeds you unethically ?

A cave robber 
becomes god incarnate. A 
finger of land snaps-

and you savagely interrupt
the prayer and send the 
message. Run, brother,run –

for the roots. Nights are 
numbered and the 
blue mountain is burning.


Sexless virginity is at stake !


Satish Verma

My Higher Power

My Higher Power is a power that I harbor within me. 
My Higher Power is the source of my spirituality. 
My Higher Power has caused many to state that I'd be a great therapist, 
but My Higher Power would never allow me a profession such as this. 
My Higher Power oversees doctor/patient professional distance. 
My Higher Power compels me to help unfortunates in every instance. 
My Higher Power would force my work home with me. 
Sleepless nights spent from hearing so many horror stories. 
My Higher Power would cause me to act unethically. 
I'd go bankrupt helping patients financially 
and if any patients of mine also happened to be children, 
rest assured, My Higher Power would have me adopt every single one of them. 
The extra lunch I'd pack before starting my work day 
would be left with the sleeping homeless woman I see everyday in the subway. 
My Higher Power puts spare change into the beggar's hand. 
My Higher Power doesn't seem to understand that I'm only one man 
in a world so full of sorow and misery. 
Sometimes My Higher Power is a major inconvenience for me.

The Banker's Tell Tale Chair

You do not sit well with me
For now I have strong legs and a sturdy back
Trusting eyes are blind, but now all do see

The cut of your plan
The strain of your ways
Unethically callous of highest degree

Devoid of abstract ways would not detract
Certainly be, children naïve in streets
To recognize difference of red and black

From this day, I will not carry your load
My offered recumbence 
Is to those of Stienbeck quality, reminiscent, Joad

Your posture’s recline, this Board of Twelve Chairs declines
The power of your seat
Should be of the electric kind
