Best Delusion Poems

Opulent the full moon glowed
Flooding light on a rocky road;
Casting down his gauzy veil
Luminescent to probe the pale.
Misty soft the shadows went
Into the secret sacrement;
Where evil meets the occult tryst
Of darkness dressed in amethyst
Where enchantments live to cast a spell
Within the fires that burn in...

“ Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion. Jim Rohn “

Relentlessly I pace around the room,
like a caged lion, dreaming of vast forests,
yearning for savannah grasslands,
vaguely remembered.

I fret for I feel inadequate,
still, I yearn despite the drudgery of life.
My thirst for you is insatiable,
always...

Blindfold sight of life
whirl hues delusion that branch
out, with waves of pouring fears     
Voices, colors strife
a deluded avalanche,
there’s no one that sees or hears

I looked at my community, and everything was ruined.
I thought, "It's a conspiracy; it's someone else's doing."

Day by day, I blamed the world---angry and frustrated:
The "Man"; the cops; "society"... THEY were the ones who hated.
Everybody said the same, so that's what I believed;
but gradually it...

Dreams they're all around me,

it's hard to tell  real life.

Monsters like in fairly tales,

my emotion turns to strife. 

The sun starts getting closer,

my skin it starts to burn. 

I look for somewhere to run

but don't know where to turn.

Evil creeps upon the face of the earth
Like lengthening shadows in a hot sun
All that it touches loses its true worth
Chaos and delusion, have now begun

The ultimate illusion has caught man
There is no stopping it until the end
Driven by greed instead of one’s need
It will...

He lives with her and says for sure, that's where he wants to be.
A lovely wife, who hides her strife, how attractive; Not to me.

Though she did stray, he chose to stay, defending love unkind.
He claims success, when it's a mess; A delusion of the...

Today they believed the lies
the distorted truths… the accusations… and wrong-doing cries
the created fabrications which are easy to consume
conceptualizations and distortions… abundant and abloom.

Responsibility once assumed… but now rarely seen
reality now falsified… made convoluted… and obscene.
And the beat goes on….
as the mind is twisted
like that...

What the mind creates 
Is real; the physical is
The illusion. Art born of
Passion like a finger that
Touches a wasps nest, 
Be still and no harm will
Come . Storm clouds
Gather; I smell the linseed
On the canvas. Mind that 
Guides the hand that 
Guides the pigment that...

Opiate of delusion…

Tempted by the flesh again,
Insanity, on mind descends,
Fools are made, where love transcends,
Opiate of delusion,
Give your heart, your very soul,
Estatic  mindset,  does take hold,
Another’s heart, yet you control,
Opiate of illusion…

Sailors Rusty and Oz cruise back from the steely shores of the Bahamas, underway and navigating to Key West. Tired from the ship’s routine, duties, and three long months away.  There is a full moon, and the stars shine like diamonds in the black...

Okay, okay, I confess. We stole the only hyperdrive ship that wasn't destroyed in the war. But what choice did we have? Our world is on the brink of annihilation. For hundreds of years my species has polluted the air, soil and water. Global wars...

"Nine Inch Nails, Ten Pins and the Purl Stitch"



She takes the cake 
they offer, chewing too rapidly, 
she Shrews when she speaks 
I’ll beat warpath drums, she says, 
no mistake

I’m a groper ... goody two shoes
she says

mouth wide open
songs problematic 
she's done and she's gone

Type casting Pirates of Penzance
Lining up those who’ll sing and dance
Some aced the illusion
Others beyond delusion
Laughing so hard I wet my pants

She's in love with the sound of her own voice
The pitch the tone the octave
Her one favorite topic is herself
She loves her audience captive and attentive
Their politeness is nothing short of adoration
Convinced there's no topic more worthy of the podium
She pictures herself filling the city...
