"diversion" poems
Together they were the perfect team. She was tired of perfection long before she met him. Constantly having to put up a successful front was exhausting, but her barrier of bravado was faltering. It's hard to find imperfections in an idyllic world. He didn't want to live in the life of his reputation anymore. The tornado that his life had become was beginning to ruin him and he wanted nothing more to find some quiet. It's hard to find solace in the storm. No longer did she want to create masterpieces; she wanted to wreak havoc. She had a taste of the life she wanted, but once you take the first few steps on the path of self-destruction, you cannot turn back. The whisper in the wind becomes seductive. Like a drug, she needed it. She made a U-turn, a complete diversion from the road that had been paved for her. She felt a rush from the change of direction, and fell in love with it. He was her change of direction. It's hard to find fault in someone that provides the mess you've been searching for. He wanted nothing more than some peace in his whirlwind of a life; maybe that's why he gravitated towards her. She gave him the comfort that he had desired for years. She made him feel as if the rollercoaster, designed as a downwards spiral, that he has been riding since birth was starting to calm down. She became the sense of calm in his brutal life. It's impossible to reject something you have been seeking for years. Together they were unstoppable. She lost herself in his chaos and she took it on herself. She was an angel who lost her way, blinded by desire for imperfection and love for a boy that finally made her feel again. He was a hurricane that found the solace in her that he has wanted for what felt like an eternity. He revelled in the peace she brought to his life and he loved her more than he could articulate. She found her demon; she became a fallen angel, the devil reincarnate that took the chaos out of his life and put it into hers. He found his angel; he became a quiet rainfall that gave his tornado to the girl that craved the destruction it created. Together they were the perfect team.

"She was an angel craving chaos, he was a demon seeking peace"

Corruption! Corruption! Corruption! Where is corruption? Seems tone up statesmen notion Co-ordinate with gallantry pride exploration, Somewhere scholar's voice explosion Solicit grant for idle generation. Corruption! Corruption! Corruption! What is corruption? Working against the soul corruption, Earning money overdose corruption; Kissing beloved on road corruption Homosexuality in India corruption. Corruption! Corruption! Corruption! How to eliminate corruption? Agitation, law, dialect and compulsion. Could not minimize absolute tension. To eradicate this sensitive passion, Must regulate spiritual diversion.

maybe the buildings are hollow, occupied only in facade on the first floor of storefronts maybe this whole town is a hologram of neon against puddles on the pavement. maybe the citizens are ghosts floating by in circles, or squares of city blocks, around a routine, or droning through on electric scooters as if on muted theme park rides to the next sensory diversion; to the nearest gastronomical pleasure; toward the weekend and its next party celebrating the loss of time, I see their tired faces staring out from the glass of coffeeshop windows on every block. I see their piles of beer cans beside the trash chute. I hear them singing on booze-cruises to nowhere What part of this cycle that turns days into dust moves us closer to heaven? What feast from what new restaurant downtown will feed our souls? From which lonely night do we finally emerge beside the one whose presence fills these hollow buildings to the top-most floors? Which of the empty lots between us do we fill with a conversation about how this is all a dream, or how we'll keep each other awake on a bench beneath a street lamp before dawn waiting for the first bus to take us home.

Ghost Town
Far on a lunatic sea, filled with tranquility and serenity, love and devotion, some flowers have made it their goal to bloom in purity, Innocent looking, sweet and with a scent from amongst the heavens, Tricking their foolish, mindless pray to come closer to them while seeping in spite and hatred, longing for revenge for their reflection, A soft breeze accompanies the starlit sky, transient moonlight lurks through in a ghastly, bluish horizon as it rises to claim the heavens for his own once he had reached its fullest phase, ahh those phantoms, Gone mad through a night full of punishment and bloodshed, Before the petals can scatter in a dawning sky they seek for an intent, Finally an attempt would be able to be made, a pity human draws near, weeping in sorrow and grief, causing them to shake excitedly As then their roots would rush out of the ground and imprison him, Twisted illusion of diversion, as they pierce through skin and bones, dragging his struggling, flailing body underground,remaining unseen Feeding on his blood, using his corpse as a fertiliser they stay pure, Moved for one instant, they dive deeper into the soil of this landscape Hatred twines around them, causing disturbance in their memories, It is alike to be left in an accelerating world of recurrance, everlasting, Until the sunrise has dyed the sky in red and everything replicates ~ Umi

Lilies of Murderous Intent
Come, have a seat here Join my picnic by the hills of despair Watch the gentle waves of tragedy slowly silently roll onto the sea of tranquility Would you like a cup of sadness? you can add a spoonful of hope that might carry all that bitterness down the slippery slope Or would you rather a sip of ignorance this time hope you should cheat Pass along the seasoning of confidence which is just as saccharine sweet May I offer you a plate of loneliness? But make sure to drown that in time ’cause we all know that time can heal everything, oh yes how divine! If you find loneliness becoming tasteless Here, try some soft-baked sarcasm infused with aged enthusiasm with a heavy dose of doubt If the flavour isn’t enough than try a new diversion maybe a pinch of hostility or a light dressing of suspicion? Whichever you prefer you better make your decision When you really need a change try some passive aggressive conceit then add fate into the mix Of course! We know how it tends to dismiss the pungent smell of amusement   the fragrant taste of love Oh how it reminds you of innocence or even the lack thereof Do you really have to go? Please do join me again this solitary life gets tedious So promise me you’ll come visit when you need someone to wake you from the beautiful lies they spin when they almost seem to convince you that's when you’ll come again I insist.

A Picnic with Reality
Miscommunication serendipity, anticipation, blurred reality - lost in the dialect of a dream, in pursuit of Love find callous irony; subversion of desire what's it all about? to know and be known. Mere seconds of scrutiny inferior, I am shown. Her appraisal eviscerating my warm flesh, her tilted criteria supplanting the interior, voluble with saccharine neologisms and preferences for the exterior. (not mine) Ironic was my attraction to her brain. Lines, features and symmetry, image - the commodity, aesthetics, the currency in this transaction, cursory liaison, incendiary, collapse of the insurgent ego - there was no us in the the affair of nothingness. Bruised in abasement, I'm not the one -   I thought I was. Hyperbole - the center of delusion, a curious diversion - avoid my life. The allure of the illusion, transference, the ordinary to the romantic, the perfect other. Searching, the absorbing project - aquiring wholeness, did she reject me? I rejected me. The escape into fraudulent sadness, to mourn, is to displace, the disowned heart by self is tragic.   Should I not mourn for the one I'm deferring? Inside of me It's safe, to lament the loss of identity - tension is agony without resolve sequestered, in my pain, self-imposed familiar terrain, upon retrieval, awaking in renewal, mystery and destiny providentially, I am free.

Miss Communication
Q-Tips raised! Their storm approaches. Swab those ear-gates free and clear. Thunder frightens the rats and roaches. Looming clouds are drawing near; Audible anticipation Waxes with our rising nation. Hope-porn is the thing with feathers flying low, right before the gale. Strident left-wing get-togethers Do their best to countervail. Tribunals herald something worse . . . Enjoy some popcorn with my verse. Martial law—a new diversion, Flapping wings on the Left and Right Disturbs the coop (or coup?). Subversion now displays its plumes outright. Deep-state angels prove satanic sparking upper-level panic. Rumors can be quite arresting. Cresting waves on the Psy-Ops sea Break and roll, now manifesting Dumbed-down mobs, conspiracy . . . Some citizens awake to truth; The rest rave on, benighted youth.

A naughty thought
My life was a mess, I grew up with some G's That's why I am arrogant, I never get down on my knees I would always pick up a fight with anybody I see I would always hit them like I sting like a bee I am a Christian, but I never act like one People draw me near to God, but I always run As time goes by, my life just gets worse Big problems came, and yeah, it's like a curse I was about to get expelled at school 'Cause all I do is stupid things, I was a fool When the news came by, I did not really like it, When my parents heard it, they got very disappointed They had a conversation with the school principal After that I was given a chance to stay in the school, But I could only stay if I would change, That day I started to think If I could change I was hopeless, I never knew who could help me, But then my friend invited me to elevate as a remedy That day I felt something extraordinary   Then I realize that Jesus was all I need That day I opened my heart before God I could tell you right now that He's not a fraud I was so amazed, I can't believe what's happening That's why I worship Him, singing and singing Then, I thanked Him for everything that He has done When on that day, I felt that my burden was gone

A Beautiful Diversion
Sometimes I wonder what you ever have seen in me, You stayed for 30 years, through thick and thin, Enduring all my flaws, loving patiently, Despite my disappointments and my sins. It hasn't been an easy road, I know, I've put you to the test more times than not. I've been a less than stellar beau, I wonder did you ever want me shot? I'm sloppy, weak, unkempt and always late, I haven't been the best at earning cash. Could this be what you wanted in a mate? I often think I've made our life a hash. I know I make you laugh once in awhile; Is that enough to keep you coming back? A chuckle here, an unexpected smile, Does that make up for everything I lack? I hope I give you something more than that, Perhaps a sense that life is not so grim. A lift in spirit, a peppy morning chat, Something to make you shake your head and grin. My contribution to our life is small, Diversion and distraction certainly, A joke or two, a pratfall, that is all I've learned to do, I'm sure you would agree. You've given so much more to me it's true. A rock, an anchor, a shelter from the gale. One thing's certain, I can count on you; You have a love that never flags or fails. I'm grateful for you every single day, There's not an hour goes by that I don't wonder why, You've stuck so long with me, but anyway, You did, and till the very day I die I'll say a prayer to God above, Thankful for your crazy stubborn love.

544. Leave me alone(Multilingual)
This year, Spring has been stopped in its tracks. Incessant rain has driven life underground, so as a diversion, we're putting on a play. It's not the real world, rather a representation of it. The director is a control freak, so her role is perfect- she can dictate without having to act. Rehearsals take place in the Philharmonic Hall where the local band used to practice. But the young have all gone to the city looking for work, so the drum kit in the corner stays shrouded in a black cloth and the unplayed snooker table supports our props. On the stage, the backdrop is dominated by a church. Its steeple points to God only knows where, aiming to instill pure thoughts. Impossible to believe, its true aim is to inject fear into its people- depending on your point of view. The main player likes to be different. He turns up. A vain attempt to give some structure to his life. Late as usual, he's unshaven, and drowsy with wine. No one can decide whether he's in character or himself. Waiting for our cue, we stand on the narrow balcony, flicking damp cigarettes into the river of rain below. Eventually, we all change, put on our monstrous armour, become the same curious creatures following the same script.   Except one.... who refuses to change, deciding in his own mind where he will play his part. So he pulls on his proofed coat and heads out for the bar. Outside, the power is off. The streets are silent. Even the cafes have closed earlier than usual, tables and chairs left out in the rain chained together, like prisoners crying for release. He slips along the cobbled streets, chanting his lines in time with his own footsteps: 'There are more dead people than living....the living are getting rarer.' Even he's not sure if he's quite himself or still in character. Briefly, the clouds part to reveal the cold light of the moon, the only thing in which he has absolute faith to guide him on his way. copyright © Caroline Grace 2013

Why don't I just throw it all in your face And see if I can escape this ******* place Use a diversion to escape Drive away listen to that old cassette tape Can't I get away for a little while The site of you is getting quite vial A get away sounds like a good thing A vacation is the best thing Before I set up this battle and war I need to know and reassure you of the score You lead by exactly one So its in your best interest to turn and run I will kick your ******* skull in I can guarantee the win I don't where to start or where to end Cause even know I don't know what is around the bend Can't I get away for a little while The site of you is getting quite vial A get away sounds like a good thing A vacation is the best thing I recall a time once ago Where you were an angel not a *** Back then we were together With hopes of it being forever Ha, when I think of that now I can see why it came crumbling down Oh!

1703 ’Twas comfort in her Dying Room To hear the living Clock— A short relief to have the wind Walk boldly up and knock— Diversion from the Dying Theme To hear the children play— But wrong the more That these could live And this of ours must die.

Twas comfort in her Dying Room
Seductive being. You have captured my eyes. Blown away by an angel. Tricked by diguise. I'm lead astray by this angel. The way she courses with grace. So I follow the shadow. Fooled by the veil on her face. I have commited a crime. I have visualized this affair. Acknowledging this moment. This innocent state of mind. I admitt that this diversion. Has corrupted me inside. Leaving me empty. Leaving me alive. I'm drawn by her beauty. Harmonizing her rythm. While she harmonizes with mine. Concious of this unlawful act. Acheiving the impossible. Acheiving this lie.

Simple Classic Crime
The wild green tree speaks to her lovers, all through the day, flirting innocence she was to the gentle breeze, those lovely foliage swaying side to side. With the indecent demands of the rowdy wind, she was rumbustious not to be left behind even a bit. Then, the long persistent buzz, of honey bees, theirs was an intense affair, with the inviting white flowers. The tree was still, as if in goosebumps, though impetuous, isn't it a diversion lovable? **I was the lover, hope personified, the tree, in my dreams I wished, was waiting with all these momentary engagements, for that one great love that thrills her, from tips to the roots, deep down, unique, in its intensity, when it happens. The green leaves, white flowers, the cacophony of roosting birds, under the shade was a world, moving on its own pace, all the while waiting for the magic love brings.** The tree was a song of love, wind's whisper, sweet exchanges inspiring to many lovers around, all through the day and night. At dark lonely nights, an oily moon appears, very late, as if it is reluctant, the tree stands silent, looking wistfully at a winking star, as if her true love was finally found, though light years away. **I stand lost in thought, in my garden, where flowers wilt, looking at the flickering light, at your window, getting engulfed by mist**

Hello Mr.Law nice to meet you I can only assume what you plan to do Fill your palace with another criminal An outweighed sentence and your sympathy minimal Haha! But look at this I've got money this time! The representation of wealth and greed is sublime Prestige on my side and there goes your jurisdiction So, You grant me diversion to heal my minds affliction? Fancy be and fancy sells - I'm content with this fine To be told what I've learned through all the signs A psychiatric assessment to tell me i'm me Mental illness is just humanity can't you see? Thanks for the counselling I've learned oh so much A man is what he is and you have told me as such Individuality is a sickness and needs to be medicated The soul who lacks conformity needs to be domesticated

Anything Less Than Perfect
We, the uninsured being inured to this, the will of gods. Our lives doled out in tablet form from birth to breath by those pharmacists with death proscribed, prescription wise. My eyes have seen the crookedness that shake foundations, three times a day we pray again to all the gods to open up and swallow pills and god just nods his head,agrees that we need medications. The ***** top bottle throttles me but I am strangled happily by those 'dolls' the greens and reds of fol de rols a plague on gaudiness unless instructions say, take the pills three times a day. These games we play, I'll say, are just a side event,a small diversion to prevent us from ever having to face the facts, but we're inured to that and so, on and on and on we go until the end is reached. I plead, just one more pill, it appears that this is not the will of god or any pharmacist, I missed the last bus home,but home is hell and so that's just as well. I wait in the wings to see what tomorrow brings.

Outlaws
He; inexhaustible yet exhausting, Ruthlessly efficient yet demanding, Hard working yet withholding, Barbed Yet deemed necessary. Protecting that which Long ago was made sacred; The heart, the hearth, the home, None may touch that hallowed ground. Defence was needed Safety paramount And then... The years passed... This ninja warrior endured Defended Sliced, hacked, diverted, whirled in endless pirouettes Of engaged battles Of mesmerising movement Of unrelenting actions Of no consequence For the mighty goal of protecting That Which Was now all but forgotten. So effective was his defence Of the thing called 'home' That it was hidden from all view Forgotten Beneath his whirling dexterity of projects and activities. The years passed... And there was no home. Never did the warrior stop to question his task That old old command. He simply obeyed As a warrior should And continue Until his death To protect the property of his master The result a hollow, busy, lonely life, Punctuated by exhaustion And the question.... "What's missing? " But so complete was his defense So skillful his guard That none saw what lay beneath. Too mesmerised by his motions to see that He was but a distraction A diversion From the question which would strike such fear into his masters heart "What will happen if I stop?"

GLAMOUR
oh how we worship the pretty people despite them being the source of so much evil and lust to be just like them we find so much ******** believable and think each of them a gem the glamorous, the beautiful, the **** "did you see the new tweet? after the show I hope they text me!" we follow them through the movies into their church steeples hollywood and all it's heights of it's anointed peoples the magazines are their bibles and we hold none of them liable for the lies they've told or the lives they ruin being unreliable with every story they're spinning they want us to believe they're "winning" marriage, divorce, wife number three new baby carriage, move to the golf course, life under palm trees remain calm and know things are always ok if you can sing and be pretty I pity the soulless with hot faces, no social graces but lots of *** in the city and we love their scandals we can't get enough every news stand proving america has more than a crush on the movie stars, on the models, on their cars, on the rush of thinking we could be them if we just got a new nose and a tuck who put Brangelina's kids' new brother on every magazine cover but never the military heroes who live to protect you while they duck for cover? **** the sheep who keep the weakness in our families who want the news filled with the new runways fashion and grammys instead of the problems that need solutions and what real life should mean we need action and my reaction is to lift the small faction of thinkers up to be seen we need a cause to cut loose the famous like weights and hate their ********** ignore the models, shun the actors, pay the teachers, appreciate the surgeons being pretty is a gift not a skill being hot isn't exactly curing cancer or healing the ill but we still want what we can't have, much worse than reality another prada handbag under the disposable christmas tree them or us, I don't know what's a worse diversion I guess I'm just not pretty enough to be a "real" person

Nowadays, Stunned Gripped Because in this holy country people are greedy,even your relatives. Near ones betraying you, Suppress you,depress you. Standing against a Hollow shoulder,this rookie should’ve been boulder. I stand for truth only.Be it against my creator! I pray to you almighty.you should’ve dealt humans With Great preceptor. This overwhelming belief of one mans life, Does not end with couple of children’s & a wife. Out there He struggle through this juggle ! Another day,another dollar ! Not a single diversion is there to reach white collar. This concrete jungle does not  fancy me anymore. I stand gypsy in a midnight moon, Doing this word gambling to kept the fire alive, Swimming through shores with 5 feet & 6 inches of Dive.
