Best Evil Poems

And one of the elders of the city said, "Speak to us of Good and Evil."

And he answered:
...

I saw a nice little flower…
Enjoying herself in the nice warm fields…
The place felt fine, what a beautiful sight! !
Why didn't it come yesterday? !
...

Alas! this is not what I thought life was.
I knew that there were crimes and evil men,
Misery and hate; nor did I hope to pass
Untouched by suffering, through the rugged glen.
...

Ah, Douglass, we have fall'n on evil days,
Such days as thou, not even thou didst know,
When thee, the eyes of that harsh long ago
Saw, salient, at the cross of devious ways,
...

I
Rest me with Chinese colours,
For I think the glass is evil.
...

As seen through the eyes of those who witnessed first hand,
and liberated the scenes of the Holocaust
...

Think not, because I wonder where you fled,
That I would lift a pin to see you there;
You may, for me, be prowling anywhere,
So long as you show not your little head:
...

A young man of strong body, weakened by hunger, sat on the walker's portion of the street stretching his hand toward all who passed, begging and repeating his hand toward all who passed, begging and repeating the sad song of his defeat in life, while suffering from hunger and from humiliation.

When night came, his lips and tongue were parched, while his hand was still as empty as his stomach.
...

Bells in the town alight with spring
converse, with a concordance of new airs
make clear the fresh and ancient sound they sing.
...

Lesbia, you ask how many kisses of yours
would be enough and more to satisfy me.
As many as the grains of Libyan sand
that lie between hot Jupiter’s oracle,
...

All you Loves and Cupids cry
and all you men of feeling
my girl's sparrow is dead,
my girl's beloved sparrow.
...

In the prologue to the Masnavi Rumi hailed Love and its sweet madness that heals all infirmities, and he exhorted the reader to burst the bonds to silver and gold to be free. The Beloved is all in all and is only veiled by the lover. Rumi identified the first cause of all things as God and considered all second causes subordinate to that. Human minds recognize the second causes, but only prophets perceive the action of the first cause. One story tells of a clever rabbit who warned the lion about another lion and showed the lion his own image in a well, causing him to attack it and drown. After delivering his companions from the tyrannical lion, the rabbit urges them to engage in the more difficult warfare against their own inward lusts. In a debate between trusting God and human exertion, Rumi quoted the prophet Muhammad as saying, "Trust in God, yet tie the camel's leg."8 He also mentioned the adage that the worker is the friend of God; so in trusting in providence one need not neglect to use means. Exerting oneself can be giving thanks for God's blessings; but he asked if fatalism shows gratitude.

God is hidden and has no opposite, not seen by us yet seeing us. Form is born of the formless but ultimately returns to the formless. An arrow shot by God cannot remain in the air but must return to God. Rumi reconciled God's agency with human free will and found the divine voice in the inward voice. Those in close communion with God are free, but the one who does not love is fettered by compulsion. God is the agency and first cause of our actions, but human will as the second cause finds recompense in hell or with the Friend. God is like the soul, and the world is like the body. The good and evil of bodies comes from souls. When the sanctuary of true prayer is revealed to one, it is shameful to turn back to mere formal religion. Rumi confirmed Muhammad's view that women hold dominion over the wise and men of heart; but violent fools, lacking tenderness, gentleness, and friendship, try to hold the upper hand over women, because they are swayed by their animal nature. The human qualities of love and tenderness can control the animal passions. Rumi concluded that woman is a ray of God and the Creator's self.

The man whose riches satisfy his greed
Is not more rich for all those heaps and hoards
Than some poor man who has enough to feed
And clothe his corpse with such as God affords.
...

Let us live, my Lesbia, let us love,
and all the words of the old, and so moral,
may they be worth less than nothing to us!
Suns may set, and suns may rise again:
...

Money is the root of all evil,
Money was blessed by the devil,
Money, money can kill,
Money can cheat, steal…
...

No matter how hard we tried
We couldn't stop their use
Despite all that had died
By such an evil abuse.
...

We know this much
Death is an evil;
we have the gods'
word for it; they too
...

The eyes that mock me sign the way
Whereto I pass at eve of day.

Grey way whose violet signals are
...

Nothing would sleep in that cellar, dank as a ditch,
Bulbs broke out of boxes hunting for chinks in the dark,
Shoots dangled and drooped,
...

To fail to set sights on the good which is highest
What debasing, and mortifying gamble
Is it not evil itself?
I get the feeling of sadness, my Lord...
...

No more noisy, loud words from me---such is my master's will.
Henceforth I deal in whispers.
The speech of my heart will be carried on in murmurings of a song.
...

The great Unitarian
With names disgusting
Abhorred the command supreme
Unto his way till the end
...

It rises
like poison ivy
up walls of humanity
...

...

Devastation wrought
In agonizing ill
Of God's omnipotence
..Or..Satan's will
...

Come, let us rejoice in James Joyce, in the greatness of this poet,
king, and king of poets
For he is our poor dead king, he is the monarch and Caesar of English,
he is the veritable King of the King's English
...

On my wall hangs a Japanese carving,
The mask of an evil demon, decorated with gold lacquer.
Sympathetically I observe
The swollen veins of the forehead, indicating
...

"O lonely workman, standing there
In a dream, why do you stare and stare
At her grave, as no other grave where there?"
...

They say that there is good and evil in everyones heart
With me theres more
It feels like inside my mind is a neverending war
Some are good
...

The summer sun ray
shifts through a suspicious tree.
though I walk through the valley of the shadow
...

...

What potions have I drunk of Siren tears,
Distill'd from limbecks foul as hell within,
Applying fears to hopes and hopes to fears,
Still losing when I saw myself to win!
...

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name;
Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, in Heaven the same;
Give us this day our daily bread, and may our debts to heaven--
As we our earthly debts forgive--by Thee be all forgiven;

turn on 'Protection against infection'

After the spies returned and
shared their bad report,
...

My breast grew helplessly cold,
But my steps were light.
I pulled the glove from my left hand
Mistakenly onto my right.
...

freedom breezes in
when you throw out the evil
trapped in your own thoughts
...

I skipped and ran across the field
To find love so that this world can be healed
This world was hurt with evil’s knife
I wanted to fight and bring it back to life.
...

Still you did not halt,

There at the gate
...

I hear of the things
That their son did
He should have been hanged
but he is free
...

O CURLEW, cry no more in the air,
Or only to the water in the West;
Because your crying brings to my mind
passion-dimmed eyes and long heavy hair
...

When evil strikes
In fire and flood
Or untimely death by dread disease
We sometimes wonder “What of God? ”
...

Fair is our lot -- O goodly is our heritage!
(Humble ye, my people, and be fearful in your mirth!)
For the Lord our God Most High
He hath made the deep as dry,

man is not evil

Holi! Holi! You have come once in a year,
You come with colors to provide us cheer.
You are also known as festival of color,
You bring joy in lives instead of dolor.

What The Devils And The Victim Can Do
March 4, 2023

Devils can prompt and motivate the victim
...

New year beginning
Evil ways now ending
Peace is finding way
For God having say
...

Evil never feels old
He wakes up each morning
and after brushing
his teeth
...

Adam and Eve were overcame
By Satan in the Garden of Eden
Since then man has been possessed
By an evil spirit which quite obsessed
...

The night before I left Milan
A mob jammed the Cathedral Square,
And high the tide of passion ran
As politics befouled the air.
...

Don't listen to a word they say,
Money can't really be that way,
To say money is evil surely can't be true,
Isn't it something that we all love to use,
...

I drink to home, that is lost,
To evil life of mine,
To loneness in which we’re both,
And to your future, fine, --
...

where are her little helpers
those nice little mice
why is she so alone in it all
...

Drummer plays with vibrant beats,
Drumming in temples for festivals,
Dynamic rhythm that awakens Gods,
Driving away evil spirits, ghosts,
...

These evil days require you to grit your teeth in misery to survive,
But you have to realize life is more
Than staying alive:
You have to create magical kindness in the heart,
...

Fire is empowered to burn
The things come in relation,
But the wise keep themselves
Far from fiery evil occurrence,
...

Break the eggshells around you
Shatter the chain of your memorised series
Let free your mind to meet your thoughts
The emptiness around you is killing
...

Mourn, O you Loves and Cupids
and such of you as love beauty:
my girl’s sparrow is dead,
sparrow, the girl’s delight,
...

Why cant we speak
Why cant we talk
Why only wisper behind their backs
...

Money hard earned
Money to burn
Money flowing freely
Money held by the greedy
...

Two loves I have of comfort and despair,
Which like two spirits do suggest me still:
The better angel is a man right fair,
The worser spirit a woman colour'd ill.
...

"Am Kreuzweg wird begraben
Wer selber brachte sich um."
...

Life is every where
It is in you now and forever it shall stay
Life is the wind blowing sideways
Life is the winter and the summer
...

Tan ala tan glaukan otan onemos atrema Balle--k.t.l.

When winds that move not its calm surface sweep
The azure sea, I love the land no more;
...

Poets should be in charge!
Words are their Arms,
After all, some harsh words
Of Truth,
...

Peaceful people of Peaceful ways
Bowed heads of sorrow and dismay
So many lost, lead astray
Humanity crumbles in decay
...

With words, with countenance, and with manners
I shall build an excellent panoply;
and in this way I shall face evil men
without having any fear or weakness.
...

Fever burns the inner sanctum of the brain,
allowing an enormous strain among
the nerves within. To creep among the
vessels of ceremonious culture,
...

Out of chaos order comes
darkness gives birth to light
in good intentions, evil deeds hide
and as we sing and dance
...

Where does evil come from?
It comes
from man
always from man
...

The great destroyer
Surreptitiously entered
The kingdom of men
Spreading evil and darkness
...

Money is precious money is power
Money is a devil cunning and evil
Source of war destruction of nations
...

I wish happiness encounter you at every nook and corner

And your eyes glimmer more than the rays of the diamond
...

When Desdemona sang a ditty-
In her last hours among the living-
It wasn't love that she lamented,
And not her star-she mourned a willow.
...

Oh, the great city's madness when at nightfall
The crippled trees gape by the blackened wall,
The spirit of evil peers from a silver mask;
...

HERE pause: the poet claims at least this praise,
That virtuous Liberty hath been the scope
Of his pure song, which did not shrink from hope
...

Life is every where
It is in you now and forever it shall stay
Life is the wind blowing sideways
Life is the winter and the summer
...

Early signs of dictatorship can be seen in the policies and acts of a leader. We, the people, must vehemently stop the birth of this evil. Like a poisonous plant, a dictator must not be allowed to spread its tentacles.

It almost feels like that one time you make a mistake, actually
exhausts all the perfection you so carefully masterminded before:
as if it all the trance in good and right existed only for a build up
for that one mistake to take more from you, to hurt more, to exploit
...

Simply beautiful, all these things You've made,
Warmth of the sun along with cool of the shade,
Whom to give legs to walk, whom to give wings,
Yes! You are Lord of Lords and King of Kings,
...

Month after month the gathered rains descend
Drenching yon secret Aethiopian dells,
And from the desert’s ice-girt pinnacles
...

O Devi! Daughter of the mountain,
The playful creator of this universe!
Abiding majestically in the Vindhyas,
Vishnu's Adorable Sister,

Edmund Burke wrote “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”.I wrote this in response to some comments on my poem 'African Pirates'


Though we turn the other cheek,
...

Father once again I come to you to ask yet for more blessings. Oh Lord is there no end to what I ask for. Each day new problems, new heartaches, more devistation, molestations, murders, drug use is increasing instead of decreasing.
Father God people are forgetting their purpose in life, they are lost. Father many years ago, your son asked you to forgive them for they know not what they do. Father when will they know what they're doing.
I have a difficult time Father looking at the news and reading of unnecessary killings, of a body found in close proximity, a body missing the head and very badly beaten. Father God what kind of a person does this. Satan is so busy and still finding a following. I'm
concerned at the minds that he is still able to poison.
...

Father today I come to you with a heavy heart, a heart that is saddened and crying out for your help. Father this week a family is in great pain, for they have lost a loved one in such a brutal way. A hard working woman of 40 years old, walking home from work, minding her own business, but she didn’t make it Lord. No my Father, she didn’t make it, she was followed, beaten, raped and murdered. A mother of 5 sons, working hard to save money to send to the Philipines for her sons and husband to come to Canada to live a better life. Oh Father, now she ‘s not here any longer, taken by a ruthless, heartless killer.
I’m told Father that I should pray for this killer, forgive me my King, this I can not do. Maybe another time perhaps, another day when I can think clearly. Today I focus my prayers on the deceased woman and her precious family.
The pain will be heavy and hard to deal with but with your help Father anything is possible. Please Lord put the blood of Jesus over them and give them the strength they need to move forward. Father over these next few days and weeks, their eyes will fill with tears, their minds filled with questions asking why did this happen. Only you can pull them through Lord, only you have the answers, only you can soothe them and give them your heavenly love.
Father the perpetrator beat this poor lady so bad, that the family couldn’t indentify her so it would definitely appear that she suffered tremendously. Father I want to believe that you took her to be with you long before the brutal blows were landed, that she was already sitting by your side.
...

We had the chance
But it never happened
And now im left with the ghosts of memories
Saying whisper something nice and ill make you scream twice.
...

An evil spirit, your beauty haunts me still,
Wherewith, alas, I have been long possest,
Which ceaseth not to tempt me to each ill,
Nor gives me once but one poor minute's rest;
...

Fear is when a child asks you to keep the light on because he thinks there are monsters under his bed
Fear is when you wake up in sweats from a nightmare
Fear is when a teenager hits his father's car and doesn't know how to tell him
Fear is when you're sitting in the examination hall waiting to see the paper
...

Setting on my perch
singing like a wren.
In-caged in paradise,
master opens the door.
...

They all try to look the same
all try to give themselves a name
pick on the boy who is all alone
just because his identity is his own
...

Truth is so beautiful,
Like the Moon
That shines for all,
And does not
...

Father, thou canst never know
The anguish that smote my heart
For my disobedience, the moment I felt
The remorseless wheel of the engine

the twin tower was flying…he knew he was descending

When I died, the circulating library
Which I built up for Spoon River,
And managed for the good of inquiring minds,
Was sold at auction on the public square,

Evil
Never worries
If it will get thru,
It can count on

Up on the jungle legend tree
The witty evil spirit* lived
Upside down teasing easy‘n free
Hung all day long it remained!

A hidden terrorism,
Without an iota of shame-
This vile plagiarism-
More than stealing a name.

Ere bidding you all good bye
At this last moment of my life
I this last day of this dying year
Wish you all a sick free new year

Heed how thou livest. Do no act by day
Which from the night shall drive thy peace away.
