Kent Holman Poems

She sat looking at me,
Not listening to a word.
Every time we talked, she
Said my opinion was absurd—
...

My mind is open
My pen poised
Over a blank sheet of paper;
Silently I wait for inspiration.
...

Softly kissing
The nape of her neck.
So white so smooth.
...

Staring, and waiting for that moment
To express our deep held desire.
How the passion sets us both on fire.
...

Spontaneous combustion
Exploding feelings across
The wide open page
As if to say—
...

In the valley where technology thrives

People are dying
...

Do what you must!
For it makes you
Who you are.
...

Pessimism invades the soul
Choking hope

Can you hear hope's
...

It is not enough to say
I love you
It is not enough to say
I care about you
...

11.

Sitting here
the little man stirring.
Feeling like a pubescent
boy trapped in a man's body.
...

She made me bleed
With her words.

Her shrill voice
...

Waiting kills the mood.
Constantly it gnaws at your nerves
Like some flesh eating disease.
...

A Children's toy box,
a wooden soldier,
a block or two,
and a ball therein.
...

The Best Poem Of Kent Holman

Gnawing Anger

She sat looking at me,
Not listening to a word.
Every time we talked, she
Said my opinion was absurd—
You should have seen my face;
The anger I showed was a disgrace.

For years, I have lived with such anger,
Gnawing anger, the kind that lingers
Like roadkill. To be sure, I am not stranger
To rage. Its long bony fingers
Have touched my heart many times,
Urging me to commit heinous crimes.

But to blame anyone for my rage is unjust.
No one is responsible for my fury,
Though I may think so, my eyesight is simply blurry
Anger is seeking a new slave;
As for me, I’d rather be brave,
Before anger puts me deep down in a grave.
