Best Wires Poems

the electric wires
    bouncing in air topped with snow
            thoughts in a balance

"Angel Through the Wires"



Are you an Angel?
Speaking 
through my words?
You stand by me always,
as I walk roughshod 
through this world.

I see your reflection 
in my eyes
Mirror Silent 
Revolution Image, 
but you are not here,
You are in my dreams, 
a cameo appearance 
every now and again,

Telephone poles stretched 
Far apart from one another
The wires are full
With a flock of sparrows spread
Resting from their long journey...

It’s a phone call, long distance,
your voice empty - echoes,
reminding just how far we have drifted,
How we can never again connect so easily -  
without prejudice or distrust.

The phone line cackles with deception ,
With words thought but not spoken - 
Caught in the void...

A businessman asked how anyone might,
get into an honest business right.
My friend Ned,
stood up and said,
usually it is through the skylight....

I wish my body had a control panel; a back door that led to monitors and controls

Lights of emotions that are controlled by switches
Digital displays in the form of actions 

I long to change the settings, adjust the frequencies
Disconnect some wires and reinforce others;
Rip away...

I went to see a psychiatrist today
He studied me in a very strange way
He grunted once and then he said
"Let me try to understand what's in your head"
I said "There's nothing wrong with me
I'm as intelligent as can be"
Two more grunts then he exclaimed
"Let's begin....

Hot flashes of blue electricity
Burn and dance like sparks from a fire
As the ghost drifts slow through the wires
With a great, charging intensity
Floating through cyberspace, shadows drift
Like children lost in desolate woods
Their faces dissolved, their voices no good
Ev'ry trace of them melts in the mist
Thick...

Amazing agony
of years to what degree?

Pain is a comfort,
for it bears the fruit of tears
normally stifled by life.

People have me
up against walls,
avoidance
a social disorder
made by their design,
unable to detect 
their motives of dishonesty.

I hide my hearts sleeve.
Living in an acid trip of fear
trances dominate my...

There is a squirrel in my cell 
Listen to this because 
I have things to tell.
I named the brat Hope 
Like whom one day 
I too wish to elope 
With no footprints to trace 
To feel the wind on my face.
You may wonder 
What am...

Spite
I write
You don't
Bite
That's alright

Check
Out broken
Glass
I broke 
Through

Gotta go 
To bed
Head before
You sleep
You love me

Fight
And take
It all out
On you
Don't get mad

Don't feel bad
I'm not letting 
You in that easily
Not so quick
So step back...

What may suit them 
Be right up there street 
Or floats one's boat

Bearing in mind poetry is
more a form of art than an 
exact science 

This may in fact explain or
be the reason 

Why the majority of the time
i get hardly and reads and
no comments

I looked up for a long time 
Staring at the telephone wires 
Knowing 
That if I followed them 
Long enough 
To all the beautiful 
And dark places 
I had ever been 
They would 
Eventually 
Lead me 
To you...

Through the wires, miracles of a sparkling age
Provide the means to make contact;
And in the closing petals of dusk, or the full bloom of dawn,
Configures the channels by which we interact.
The snow dust outside sits like visual cocaine on the lines,
Glittering with the allure of...
