Fab Ricciardi Poems

Pride

Pride is a sin,
That keeps you locked within,
...

Trying to redefine
What the truth really means.
Denial, abuse, and violence,
Fills the now filthy, polluted air.
...

Is it about the hidden meaning behind the words,
Or more about the words hiding behind the meaning?
Is it hard to decipher what the truth really means
When all around you are speaking in
...

What a headache,
What happened last night?
Don’t remember much anymore,
Yet, the mirror
...

Let my song
Be a song of joy,
A song about peace
A song of love.
...

Sharing a dream with you
for a better tomorrow,
where skies are blue
without much sorrow,
...

Words once heard, inside my head:

Satan speaks first:
...

Fear of the Unknown

The fear of the unknown
Does not scare me anymore,
...

A fire, a tornado,
A hurricane, a Tsunami,
A break-up, another divorce,
Bankruptcy and foreclosures
...

Spontaneous combustion,
of a tormented soul,
mixing fuel into a fire,
burning out of control.
...

frozen moments of past lives,
never to be lived
...

The obvious disgusts me

Everything that symbolizes
What is supposed to be
...

Absolute insanity
Forecasting Armageddon

Powerful forces driven by impotent leaders
...

A Scar On My Body


I did not ask anybody
...

May life always smile upon you

Like a joyful child
Let yourself run wild
...

I gave birth to a word today
Then added some more to form a poem
I watched it grow through the years
Just like a child some might say
...

So you think it’s easy

You just sit back and criticize
...

A stone will not bleed,
Or so they say,
Yet they will find a way
To make this stone pay.
...

Dedicated to my Ex Wife

Three in the morning
Tossing and turning
...

Take what you need

Take what you need, Lord…
...

The Best Poem Of Fab Ricciardi

Pride

Pride

Pride is a sin,
That keeps you locked within,

The yes,

the please,

the more,

Pride hits the slamming door!

Keep your head up high,
Pride will not ask why,

Step on those below,
Step on up to the show.

Pride is a sin,
Not just a simple sin,

It takes a mouse,
Not a man,
To make pride
The drive within.

Pride is a sin,
That keeps you locked within,

The yes,

the please,

the more,

Pride hits the slamming door!
