WELCOME TO ARIZONA POET BOB ATKINSON'S BLOG

WELCOME TO ARIZONA POET BOB ATKINSON'S BLOG of Arizona Poetry. Arizona Poetry reflects the multi-cultural heritage of the Southwestern section of North America. Arizona Poetry is reflective of how we became who we are, and how we look at where we are going. Arizona Poetry is us, not you and them.

WILL BE POSTING, FROM TIME TO TIME, MORE STORIES FROM MY BOOK "ARIZONA CULTURAL INFLUENCES - ACI".... THESE ARE TRUE HISTORICAL STORIES WHICH MAY BE RESEARCHED AT THE LIBRARY OR ON LINE, ALTHOUGH I DO NOT CLAIM THEM TO BE HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS, AND HENCE
DO NOT ATTEMPT PERFECT HISTORICAL ACCURACY.
THE ATTEMPT IS TO GET PEOPLE THINKING HOW ALL SIDES FELT ABOUT THE EVENTS, SO AS TO HELP US ALL LEARN MODERATION IN OUR FUTURE ACTIONS.

IN ADDITION, I MAY POST SOME OTHER, NOT SO SERIOUS POEMS I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT LIFE AND LIFE EXPERIENCES.

Slow Burn by Bob Atkinson


Slow Burn

(c)2012 Bob Atkinson

he shook off centuries of civilization
told them how he felt
the basil feelings of liberations
well tucked up under his belt

no sincere form of flattery
could enhance his understanding
of those who could not see life
through the fog of one man's imagination

this all contributed to his revelations
which he shared with some who mocked him
casting doubt upon the beliefs of weenies
those simpletons among them

so, sitting in a circle
trying to be sincere
he wandered over intentions
of many who couldn't hear

hear his heart beating loudly
his anger at the hurt
imparted by those unthinking
both in pants and skirts
