Division Poems - Poems about Division

When the cold winds blow And the hostile natives are restless It’s time to wake up, smell the coffee And cut your losses. What is there to push back on, after all, But the bitter taste Of someone else’s resentment; The mighty wind of their off-gassing. The world is wild and cruel Even within the treacherous smile of neighbors When dog eats dog possesses...

ode to Hoopoes Must be a bird, to fathom a prodigy Mundane eyes do not often look up, high up to find any silhouettes anymore. They do not often chill out with the loneliest kite Soaring high with the tilted sun, a day is touched in deep around the eve After Nemo is served, you may strum along...

We live in constant confusion. "Men are from Mars, more like Pluto," they say. When understanding women, we're relegated to a planet outside our own solar system. That's how far our understanding has progressed, 'not very far.' Our minds are bombarded by rhetoric about past misdeeds of women. Yet, when it comes to present-day relationships, we're as...

The division Here in this landscape of bushes and crippled trees the grotesque peace of daylight ghosts grey boughs stretching upward appeal to a soundless god. “Give us today a new life.” There is only one deity the almighty one, go under the name of Silvanus. Those who do not understand this are doomed to a life of empty pursuit of pleasures. Crowded...

Let's repudiate their old Ideas and their archaic and spurious values Let's unmask them and expose their views Sectarianism may be a fancy or ostentatious word To talk about racism. But it is the same sharp sword Which can decapitate and destroy...

Sometimes I think if we had paid better attention to basic math it would be easier to follow our hearts…. and the Earth would be one whole… instead of broken into parts. I imagine in elementary school we could not contemplate the importance of basic math in terms of love and hate. Even now I have to wonder: as to...

‘Hey stomach,’ says anus, ‘Would you cut the crap.’ “It’s not me,’ stomach says; ‘I won’t take the wrap. It’s what they’re eating, So blame teeth and mouth. I’m innocent,’ says stomach, ‘For that filth down south.’ Brain has a good laugh At organ expenses, By prodding infighting Over false offenses. ‘Are you kidding me, You two dumb kidneys. Always a teamed pair For a fight that’s not fair!’ Roared livid...

Our minds are a mirror's fragments now facing each other Reflecting rays of thoughts and passions from each ever-turning face Building a house named "Sympathy" built from those shaky beams Inspired by a passage from David Hume's A Treatise of Human Nature, Book 2, Section 5.

When can we not divide? We live in fear, so we hide. Our first gift is love at our birth. What happened to this gift of extraordinary worth? We are burden with life's illusionary woes. Trepidation of pain, hides our love and it shows Teachers of the heart will heal our wounded soul. Tentatively, we open up our heart of love as...
