Edgar Eslit Poems

Alone lonely loner
among the boughs in caved pavilion
startles the fowl from the gaggles slumber
but though she traces the scenes with oblation,
...

Walk with me and stay with me forever
Take my hand I’ll show the way and answer
To the place of happiness forever with the father
...

That was a complete silence.
An avalanche of concepts precipitated
in a Herculean domino of conversation.
Hyperbole, metaphor and personification
...

Cold winter had come to last
That agony of our past
When you made wine
Out of my tears so fine
...

I go round and round
I move up-side-down
I close without a sound
honesty and sensitivity abound
...

Take the red one to choose!
Dear, ever wonder?
The reason why God gave us children is because
He wants us to receive Roses in December.
...

Where is she, where is she…
The voice that keeps on hunting me
Just like every other day
Where is she, where is she?
...

Just as the clock starts to tick
There sprung the tongues of fire
When these honorable men play their mutual smack
One will see their infinite capacity to lie
...

Good to win every fight
Be it in candor or encoring fright
But why can’t I withstand with might
For as if this heart is squesshed so tight
...
