#honorable
you claim to be honorable
you seem all American
But what if America *****
That flag just billowing with pride and honor
Is just waiving for attention
And you're not really that golden retriever
You're just a dog
One without proper training
Disloyal and fraught
No one can blame a dog
They focus on the present
They stick to what they know
They don't fly
communicate
Emote
You want attention from every girl but me
You are so desperately seeking love
From everyone
Everyone
Other than yourself
You claim to focus on awareness and equanimity
But what if you really just need to focus
On to hurting others
Because
You **** at that.

When just a child the poet's mom said "Son,
Throughout your life beware the sin of pride.
Remember this when every day is done,
What counts the most is who you are inside."
At first he thought his mother's words unfair
For recognition surely has its place.
In time he witnessed prideful thoughts can flare
When undue adulation supplants grace.
The poet took to heart his mother's words
Too many accolades can turn your head.
Vainglory flits away on wings of birds
What's left is mostly emptiness and dread.
Life immersed in modest exhibition
Satisfied with honorable mention

Pardon the way
that I stare!
reading your ink
leaves me weak
leading me strong
and bare
wanting to read yours dear
can't take my finger
off this cell mirror
keyboard cyberg
My words expressing
my hells
my paradise lands
all gone
madness is not an option to claim
courage and patience
are winning clues
understanding
others a must!
Going mis-understood isn't with the great sages reading this;
it's with cold
and timid souls,
knowng neither triumph nor defeat.
Poets across the globe
write much this way
and thrive
Our honorable metaphors
linked
living in interesting times
poetic writers
all tuned in
diverse minds global united we are!
One single thought
our minds become
One single beat
our hearts sing
a tune
Here at Hello poetry
honorable metaphors
greeted
with likes and loves
heart throbbing poems
linking us all
at once
from Hello Poetry
across the globe
so that we may
linger on
timeless
beyond.

although he never showed it,
he was a selfless man,
he gave his life for the world, for the future
and i couldn't be more honored and proud
being in love with a great man like him
