Anthony Liccione Poems

These wheels keep turning,
half a tank of gas now,
running from captivity
and into free,
...

There is heaven somewhere,
and I hear it takes eternity
to find it, but sometimes
...

Second birthday
$4.89 for a number 2 candle
three blows out
a whitewash for future Augusts
...

i pluck an apple
from a giving tree

and toss it up
...

i was born
i cried at birth
i wished mother’s
breast warm,
...

I sat there
in the swirl of head,
beer foaming
elegantly like froth
...

7.

Rare and raw
looking to find fault -
world pressed of pressure
faces of every size, sex
...

Two dolls were snatched
in anger from my hands
and thrown with a cast,
arm threads ripped, shoes
...

takes lifetime
to get there,
sacrificing unstable
illusions for concrete illnesses,
...

It takes a drunk
to know another drunks
burden, that bridges
the drinking, crosses
...

i feel safe
in this shipwreck
heart, floating
on the ocean
...

half n half, whole
wheat bread whale
of a time, split
in two buttermilk
...

I never mentioned
I'm sorry,
as the Sony,
television falls
...

going to a
town,
that has been
burned down-
...

Her eyes would
read to the mood
of our love,
so precise, yet
...

All the sparks in the
night sky below,
just above the city
as an electrical storm
...

I think
back to
japan
the little
...

While yet married to a dish
the spoon ran off with the fork
to elope into a knife
cut-throat marriage-
...

You tried to tell,
with words-
didn't listen, just
kept throwing
...

The Best Poem Of Anthony Liccione

Moving

These wheels keep turning,
half a tank of gas now,
running from captivity
and into free,
dominate roads.
Passing the black and
white dogs scavenging
through garbage cans,
fifty dollars
won't get me far.
But I keep moving
an unknown direction,
hoping the years
will save me,
expecting time will
catch me.
As it never does,
and never will.

Anthony Liccione Quotes

Everyone needs a house to live in, but a supportive family is what builds a home.

The paint is drying, and time is dying. The pain is crying, lying on my back, trying to get back the time, to brushstrokes too fast, wet went dry and love went dull; now I live in a portrait I never painted.

I could say the world is ending tomorrow, and no one would care. I could say the world will go forever, and no one would care. I could write words, words, words of hope, of love, of humanity, of peace, of pain and the world will still spin to unchanged tomorrows. The human heart balled up as a fist, just grows old clenching to life, to pride and ego, it won't let go. But the words slip through, as the last pump of blood to a lost web of veins.

It's not what you have on the outside that glitters in light, it's what you have on the inside that shines in the dark.

There will always be haters. And the more you grow the more they hate; the more they hate the more you grow.

A beautiful world with ugly people; an ugly world with beautiful people. We never can never win.

Too often, we love for the wrong reasons, when we think the right one comes along.

A ghost has all the time to reach for love, but never can. As a human has little time to reach for love, and never does.

Teeth aren't pearly, until you smile.

It's hard to push up against a wall, when you are the wall.

Don't ask the grass to give you green, and later walk all over it.

Stupidity is instant birth, but wisdom takes a lifetime.

Even a rock moves on.

Thoughts are like an open ocean, they can either move you forward within its waves, or sink you under deep into its abyss.

It takes time, or does time take it?

The distance of a voice, is only a short time away from touch.

A tormented mind wants to forget, what a broken heart will always remember.

A circle of friends, doesn't always keep perfect relationships.

Sometimes playing stupid opens your eyes to the truth.

Expect while reaching for the stars, people to whirl by with their dark clouds and storm upon you.

Greed, will set you apart from need.

God is still good, no matter how you slice the crumble pie.

It's hard to ignore ignorance, as we wear our brainy hat of hatred. Where the hammer hits the nail, indirectly.

It's better to look at a black and white world, rather than black and blue.

Take flight, my little angel, your wings are stronger than you faith. And your courage will grow, and talents unfold.

Don't let the eyes guide the heart, but have the heart guide the eyes.

Loneliness always eats up time, fills on depression where hands move slow, to reach in for a moment of care.

There is a fine line we walk between unstable illusions and concrete illnesses, falling to either side in sheer blindness.

No thing, should make you feel like a nothing.
