Inside Out Poems - Poems about Inside Out

Inside-Out
Body rejects itself, Bone-dry and like a furnace, It burns alive, kill It is sand, dead Dig two graves, Refuse to rot, This isn’t revenge. Hate the body, It’s nothing but problematic. One ear open, Stay somewhat conscious. Maggots crawl in the body, tearing under the skin, Refuse to rot, feel it inside-out. Fling a rope, It will not reach, YOUR BODY isn’t strong enough....

Premium Member Today I went out into the city with my soul turned inside out, like an old coat reversed
Today I went out into the city with my soul turned inside out, like an old coat reversed, And on streets filled with shadows and lights, people looked at me with curious eyes, As if they had glimpsed a stranger in their own story, a character without purpose, And friends called me, their voices like echoes from a...

Premium Member Looking Inside Out
Looking inside out, I might not be so bad/ Because the world is going mad and I can't be sad/ I should really be motivated, to touch down better/ But this storm I'm trying to weather, I can't let up/ Looking inside out, I just wonder how I look/ Some people think I'm cool and don't see me as a...

Premium Member Inside Out Outside In
("Citadel of Light Merit Badge" - #67, 2016, original oil) Inside Out Outside In The world is nothing If not a continuum of beliefs and practices Along a spectrum of consciousness Within an infinite sphere of awareness; It’s all light And it’s everywhere But not in equal measure. In other words, that light shines differently In each of us, And so each of the cultures we...

Sons and Daughters of the First Born
Sons and daughters of the first born From original source we were all shorn Progeny of the brightest stars All were unwitting avatars Flung from the quiver Each a message to deliver Look out at the world Into which we were hurled We struggle to stand In this dark hinterland No longer can we hide Behind eyes now open wide The oldest of souls Living truths will extol Dropping...

Premium Member Upside Down, Inside Out
Hummingbird hardly heard, airily, merrily extraordinarily effortless floating, near weightless transparency, seemingly without the slightest of care. Urgent persistency, terribly panicky, frenzied and frantic, she's burning through energy rapidly, hungrily; precise machinery executes there. Mallard so lazily, buoyantly floating on glassy flat waters, he glides on the surface, and wanders unhurriedly, conveying contentment, trivial feat. Feet like a bicycle furious pedaling, splendidly, swimmingly, chasing and fishing, he's hungrily hunting and ready to eat....

My Inside Out Friends
My inside out friends Let me tell you about the days I meet My inside out friends such a treat. Usually they mingled inside of my head, With lots to say now a bit more is said. I've been topsy-turvy smothered by others, Wicked wise and protecting mothers. No calm down or be silent now, Don't leave off lights somehow. There's colour in their...
