I love writing words and I recently came across some six word poems. I wanted to write some too.
In a world where our span of attention is limited due to so much going on in our daily lives, I figure they may hit the mark.
Like the street artist that can convey a meaning and a thought that stays with us for some time after seeing the painting, a six word poem could also do the same.
I have books of words in the shape of poems stories plays and lyrics. These are just ones that may quickly capture your attention.
Like a short black coffee when time is of the essence, I hope these fill a space in your thoughts and heart.
John.
You grew up believing. What now?
Insane solutions for insane problems.
What do you do, to survive?
The clown. His mask. Ultimate disguise.
Words like drugs. Can change emotions.
Status. Riches. Blind. Conforming. Inhabitations.
Know your world. I know mine.
No! Yes could be an option.
A long journey. Take only necessities.
Don’t loose grip! Long way down.
True spirit. Cooks best under pressure.
The universe exists. I am here.
Learn of life. From your cat.
Justice takes forever. We die sooner.
Holidays with Satan. The priest departs.
Vacations to Purgatory. Free online bookings.
Has anybody seen my true God?
Her body. A beautiful loving refuge.
In her arms. Time stands still.
Secrets kept inside. Changes life outside.
Too many words. Loose their meaning.
Drink today. Loose tomorrow. Constant sorrow.
You thought I’d gone? I’m back.
The blade can kill. Or heal.
A stage for personal grievance.
True beauty. Seldom seen or understood.
Learning love. Takes a lifetime learning.
In desperate times. Take a chance.
Fortunes told! Life, the great decider.
Cheap jewelry, captures the mind. Endlessly
Two dollar shop. Loose yourself inside!
I am the King! So what?
Time’s up. I want another go!
The old man. Still plays marbles.
Death. Between the pages. Life.
Exhume the past. Chart the future.
Are not your real dreams.
Money cannot erase the pain. Inside.
Failure. Luck. Perseverance. Work. Talent.
Abused youth. Life slowly dies. Inside.
A free bird? My heart soars!
Dog licks his balls. Can you?
Monkey on back. A runaway train.
Ocean swells. Morning sun. Mountain waves.
Friendly voices. Safe. Happy. Belonging. Now.
The genius. Didn’t learn from books.
She was beautiful. Until she spoke.
One day, the world will end
Originality, bears no resemblance to fashion
Start again! This time without indoctrination
Tribes live isolated lives. Like us
Don’t know? Still unsure? Make war!
Crawl, walk, run, fall. Try again.
There is life. There is hope.
