Malcontent Poems - Poems about Malcontent

A jukebox ending the silence masks the dialogue in your mind; That beat’s a saving grace, with a chorus left on repeat; Guitars that are louder than hell are fresh air that open those lungs; Finally you exhale, the sound explodes into a storm; Snarling they call it an anthem, put your money where your mouth is! Sometimes it is joined noise. Either way? It...

Masked and cloaked in black, the storm-troopers fulfill the mandates of the owners, snarling with menace as they scatter...

The autumn leaves fell from amber skies And the wind it blew from a mystical place. But when I spit to the ground; the wind blew it around; And now it hangs here in my face. We walked through the garden of roses and daisies; Reeling in the luster of loves after glow; When she stooped down to smell; not everything...
