#illusive poems on Hello Poetry

Jeremy Betts 3d

Please know that;
I
Don't want to live
But I
Don't want to die
So I
Become a captive
Deny
My modus operandi
The lie
Is naturally aggressive
Can I
Adapt on the fly
Can't I
Be illusive
'Till I
Can answer the why
So I
Will try objective
A good guy
Give it a collage try
Then I
Become reactive
This stye
Permanently in each eye
I try
But the mole hill's massive
And I
Still have no answers to why
I cry
That's all I have left to give
Still I
Knew better than to be believe in somethin' like an eye for an eye
But who am I?

Incantation

illusive incantations illustrate iridescent impermanence,
inspiring intellectual integrations past impartial intentions,
interdependent identities ingrained in innocence improve infrastructural spaces,
invite implausible involvement to instantly inform change.

An alliteration of the works, power to the voices of the underrepresented. Spark change in the institutions that you occupy and make your stance clear!

Illusive

Holding onto you
And your thoughts
Is like water dripping
Through me and my hands

Illusive Love

And then he gave me things,
expensive things
then I told him he couldn't buy an affection
that was already dead,
much more an illusive love.

Being different

I see a lot of things people miss,
and am a lot of things;
those people don't see.

...even though sometimes
I want them to.
