Best Apprize Poems


O Mother

A god given gift is my one and only mother, 
courteous and conveying more than any other.

When the era was shaded, you accommodated the light, 
when my perception was not luminous, you bestowed my sight.

Powering the fluorescent light when the allotment was dim, 
O mother, I can truly opine what a divine blessing its bin.

Each moment I spend with you is an equivalent to a hidden treasure, 
each memory I share with you has eternally been a pleasure.

You are the ultimate significance to me alive, 
without your presence life is not worth the survive.

Cherishing and nurturing with your tongue, 
O mother how your words are so sweetly sung.

I apprize and adulate the arena you glide upon, 
your beauty is comparison to one that of a swan.

So delicately poised, a mother's place, 
the one no alternate human-being can ever replace.

For your children and husband you slave away, 
O mother how can I ever repay.

Despondency

You may withdraw yourself from others
Become quiescent or lackadaisical
Disrupt sleep or appetite alter
Feel sluggish or delirious

When the echoes of your parents'altercations
Rack up your eggshell mind
When you avoid people whose company 
You've typically rejoiced relishing

Yet you remain part of the quotidian process
That regaling you would your emotions trivialize
The world should revere your right
To confront a loss thouroughly 

Convalesce from their turgid prosperity
Immerse your weighty dejections
Schedule some constructive episodes
I can but accolade your approach

To coin a new gist of aliveness
Absorb and merriment apprize
Amend lamenting into cleansing
Strike a joke or be sarcastic

Amass and boast your high-pitched impetus
And above all your insights vitalize 
Extoll your bewitching sorcery 
And perceive a world better to be.

An Average Schlepper

This fool doth not consider himself wise,
writing paltry poetry difficult
to read and/or actualize
methinks perusers of great literature
snub nose how I miserably advertise,

laughable attempt to aerobicise
fifty plus shades of gray matter
lobbying showy words agonize
zing effort perhaps best to cauterize
near petrified glob - boon

for scientists to analyze
baffling laboratory technicians
unusual crenulations
a profound surprise
pitiful peremptorily doth apologize

unlike verbalization feasible
after webbed whirled fist size
terra incognita reveals numbskull years
wrought yours truly to anesthetize
smelting, squelching,

and suppressing emotions
scored how tree rings annualize
environmental conditions definite
premature imp of the pervert
poe fella lifetime channels,

where bullies did antagonize
upon death requested autopsy authorize
zing eager scalpels to apprize
miniature dried river bed
formerly streams of consciousness

lake never seen before engendering
crowdsource to hypothesize
baffling every expert,
how terrible fate did baptize
ala lemony snicket series

of unfortunate events
multiplied power bajillion times
number only Google could surmise
obvious tell tale signs did brutalize
as if smacked upside the head

one unfortunate gladly apparently
suffered maelstroms of armageddon size
poet chars evidently 
succeeded to burglarize
more successful than Watergate

psychological ploys hackers
noninvasively did cannibalize
(perhaps bored furloughed 
government employees)
albeit noninvasively deeming

imposible to canonize
resultant cerebral corpus
understandably did capsize
entire body politik (Democrat) 
faced, booked on hatred did demonize

verbal assaults indicate 
suffering did caramelize
cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem
resembling burnt offering 
impossible to categorize

glommed hardened integument colleagues
hard pressed to characterize
highly rendered anomaly,
hence unfair to criticize
erratic schizoid personality disorder

quite evident amyloid plaques 
did significantly crystalize
definitely explain aberrant quirks
resultant incessant emasculation 
unquestionably led him to demoralize.


Awoke With Existential Nihilism Since Birthday One

(Otherwise titled poetic
gobbledygook trot -
oven chilly cooked confusion eliciting
faint thanks a lot
unbeknownst this tasteless,
senseless, rhymeless... lettered

Rorschach test tease I jot
interpretation, viz hitting
analogously like amorphous melted ingot
watch yourself...
d's lines iz still smok'n HOT,
now I puzzle regarding how

to extricate mess elf aye got
into try'n to strut and trumpet
hightailing to Hong Kong
entrepôt yea, that dot
on the map embroiled -

in political fracas fifteen minutes
of fame Andy Warhol didst allot
every man, woman,
and child even no bot
tee like me.)

Anyway... when zombie like,
I try to dead reckon eyes
purposefulness astride oblate spheroid
nsync with other gals and guys
either one, t'other or all
mask cue lated in disguise

impossible mission to triangulate
Euclid say logic defies
to comprehend gibberish
no matter how much you scrutinize
his highness, qua shape
shifting imperfect square stumps

any tree men douse great mind to analyze
me skewering, marinating, gunning... decries
abiding any logical positivism
queries best addressed to Lord of the Flies
since nary handy dandy blues clues,
I opted out thus... 

rubbish provided to synthesize
random words helter skelter 
strewn to symbolize
absent any rhyme or reason
courtesy handy matted figurative
trapezoid doth employ 

no paradigm to exercise
leaving comprehension after mine demise
so go ahead chastise
cuz I already know,
never will said poetry win apprize.

A Vision of Mary

Should I sculpture your body from a stone,
that's heaved from beneath the dirt of this ground?
Although your created from dust alone,
most exquisite, no fairer one around.
What mold could I create to shape a sigh?
Design a cloud?  Fashion a gentle breeze?
A delicate kiss?  A soft whispered cry?
If, cold dark stone of you, I could apprize!
What line would I carve?  What edge would I sand?
You stand opaque in the calm of my storm.
How could I chisel the nail of you hand?
A figure dimensioned in your dear form.

This vision of your beauty is engraved
in these tender eyes, lovingly enslaved.
