Woe Poems - Poems about Woe

I try no, I’m sure I do. Or maybe… With the whole weight of my being, I try to enjoy the present. I stretch each minute wide enough to step inside, to sit a while not merely pass through. This existence with intention, this awareness I otherwise tuck away, as if noticing the fine grains of now could slow...

I am a loquacious, a storyteller of whimsy and woe this poem is a jargogle of jumbling words as I enter the forest to a cacophony of harsh sounds oh, I often tend to be a gloomy crapehanger and sometimes a fantasizer unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality escaping into the intricate world of poetry it is a metamorphosis...

They taught about the almighty. Did they love him ever? Did they enter heaven, or allow others to enter? Like surfaces of silent lakes, they looked calm and serene. Underneath flew currents of whirlpools, tearing the marine The poor were deserted like twigs of trees, they deserted. Their hard earned wealth, into their own interests, they diverted The oaths on the...

I can do my rune rede uncorrupted. The Ward nurses word can not be trusted., Nurse allows me to eat at the cafe, I will be pissed off ,trusting them, led astray . Will go outside on the stoep ;be alone. Go on a strike, license lost, not in the zone, I write some poetry, I feel genuine , Refuse my...

In the lowest of your moments, When bitter trials are fought, Platitudes blare like loud trumpets, Most are sincere but ill-taught It’s not folks pity that you plead, Empathy they may not sense, It’s presence that you truly need, In your time of deepest grievance. In the lowest of your moments, Cliches can blare like brass, And cause angst and...

*On The Run* Hunted by my past, trailed by my shadow, Intoxicated by elixir of youth, I climb the ìrókò beyond the leaves. Wail of woes, dehydrated dreams Crushed in the battlefield of the deep; Love lost, hoarse voice, greying hairs. The wind slaps me cold, Drunk with evil pleasure, Sweet sorrow envelopes me; Then it dawns on me, I’d frittered the forest and harried...
