Tony R. Rodriguez Poems

keep deleting my beats—

you crooked leech
you Faithless cyber-nut
...

Judge more than tenderly of me.
Society whispers ideas that sink the virtuous ideals of
faith, hope and love—
especially those new ideas of yours.
...

From her lips flew arrows I wish I did not Own,
And I felt such Affliction, with tears not Shown.
Compared I did the great loves of past Similar;
For once I felt such Elation in blessed Particular.
...

Awake: Beep, ring, music, and the sounds that pummel.
Appearance ritual: Why should this matter?
(I grow old each passing day.)
Destination: Some paths taken, new roads dismay.
...

The Best Poem Of Tony R. Rodriguez

A Poem To The Terrorist Of Email Prosody

keep deleting my beats—

you crooked leech
you Faithless cyber-nut
you beaten pedophile of poetic thoughts
you pungent troll who hides behind computer keys you’ll never master
[because]
you’re too scared to write about life
[because]
you haven’t lived it

perhaps you should have
[taken notes,
taken advice]
from a madman belonging to a generation of
Faithless writers
who have more to say than you.

so keep clicking away on your dejected mouse
[you cowardly terrorist]
while [we] plug away madness too alive to fade.
