Defiance Poems - Poems about Defiance

All at once I absquatulated, in hindsight now I know why. The craziness simply escalated, I no longer held the desire to try. The pellucid message in silence is a fierce strong-arm motivator. Sucked into an act of defiance, I will not indulge an instigator. Speaking with a cogent message I have expunged every syllable. With no words I have set the...

I taste the beating of your heart As truth drizzles onto my soul Daring me to challenge this equation That turns two pieces into one whole I embrace a broken mirror As I am claimed by torment beyond measure Calling me to face the rigors of this legacy But instead I run toward pathways of twisted pleasures I am adrift on a raft...

I wear my suit while my house burns I wear my suit while my wife dies I wear my suit when my son’s body arrives And I wear my suit for you Donald Trump I wear my suit while Russians torture I wear my suit as bombs explode I wear my suit for my lost future I don’t wear my suit because...

Does your world hang low? Does your humour ebb and flow? Do you feel like you’re a flop And you’re drowning down below? Are your moods like running water Won’t stay stable when they oughta? Does your world – hang – low? Is your life a drag? Do you feel like a rag? Does it seem as though you’re flound’ring Through impenetrable slag? Is the whole...

She was born with the whole sky in her hands, soft fingers reaching for a world that hadn’t yet told her no. Her first breath was limitless— the kind of infinite that only newborns know, before the world shrinks them down, before the weight of it all settles into their bones. She could have been anything. A girl who laughed, who danced, who...

We search daily to define who, we as people in defiant world We lead ourselves what we see is true Soul's defiance of mind's illusion or personality carried in emotions Evolution of evolvement many questions raised, upon what basics ones opinion is form That of man who do not know, even their heart God prayers...

Freedom isn’t a delicate flower; It’s the fist that goes through the ground, the teeth that grind at the chains, the howl of a wind that won’t ask for permission. I refuse to bow to the crumbs of tomorrow, I won’t let my bones sink into decay, a shell waiting to grow scraps. I’ll carve out freedom from this stubborn rock— bloody-knuckled and relentless. Do not...

It's not a stillness, really, but the noise fading into something else. I am the forgotten beat in the rush, the space between clashing symbols, drowned out but unbroken. They circle around me, a frenzy of flashes, their words sparks, their bodies electric with purpose - all moving, all wanting, but I am the breath between their sighs. I don't belong to...

To my last breath, I will live and defy, unyielding in resolve, my enemies, know this: I will never, ever yield. Each strike you planned has only sparked my blaze, a light so fierce it sears the world itself. I rise beyond defeat, unbroken, whole my life not mine alone, but theirs I guard. I breathe, I fight, I live, unyielding flame, the...

I refuse to be what you call normal, To fit in with your jealousy, or bitterness Your world is small, tangled in negativity and hate I refuse to shrink to fit in. You want me to bend, to belong, Folding myself to match your rank But I refuse, I am bold, strong, born to burn bright, not to bow, To stand tall and...

Cling not, to currents of kleptocracy. Seek not, slithering shortcuts. Like molding wood in molten guts - Revolutionary, make that your story. Slanderous slogans of snakes dull deep, deaden desires. Drudging dogma deludes the mind, souls shattered, silenced in stupidity. No magic mantras maketh life, metal mentality striking strife. The wills of wills travel far above belligerence and bars. Embrace death, you do not, before time. Embrace...

The pain you wish to inflict, Is your quandary as I resist. Grovel, you demand with hate. But my resolve hardens and will not abate. You capture my past for all to see. But you don't realize that it makes me free. You seek harm, for my compliance. Yet you don't know that I dance...

With hair ablaze a jester unconfined. I scoffed at the mundane its life declined. My wardrobe a riot a rhapsody bold. Mismatched socks my standard stories untold. In classrooms of tedium rules I'd defy Grasping forbidden knowledge 'neath watchful sky. Craving for wisdom in esoteric wells. Chased squirrels with saws casting fanciful spells! Detentions for antics the school's icy stare Derided in classrooms a spirit too...

U drag everything into a black hole and take. I break and clear space rocks in my wake. We are not =, I am extraterrestrial! Ure contacting a being who’s perennial. Look at my spaceship! I’m out of your world. An alien impervious to the earthly stones u hurl. Inhale my space dust and aspire to reach me. U’ll crack under the...

Written: October 30, 2023 __________________________________________ Amidst bouts of deep pain and hellacious strife When anxiety overwhelms and exhausts life. Hyacinth should be allowed to soothe the soul. With succulent shades and truths still to control, Within the sepulcher of our deepest fears, A soliloquy of anguish, shedding tears. But in...
