John Lawless Poet Verse

Bastards

There are bastards in the world,
too many of them for my liking,
but they don’t care about my likes
or dislikes for they are bastards.

Bastards!!
Hollowed out beings filled with a
pus green aura of
disdain.

Bastards!!
Scumbags, callous miscreants,
lousy, scuzzball, son-of-a-bit-chin,
sleazebag weasels.

Bastards!!
Villainous,
snake in the grass rogues,
reprobate swine, spineless, jellylike,
amorphous lowlife scoundrels,

Bastards!!

Terry Flood July 26, 2023 at 5:08 PM Sometimes, John, it’s important to speak your mind… now… would you care to elaborate? Ha ha… I SO get ya. They seem to be everywhere and I’m sure they’re mating. Be afraid! Terry

Robert Lindley July 26, 2023 at 12:27 PM Very fine verse that gets right to the point on the subject. Yes and truth is there are just toooooooo damn many of them hanging around! I am with you on this... A fav... God bless...

Michael Tor July 26, 2023 at 12:09 PM John tell us how you feel. Don't hold back. Just vent my friend. John I feel the same way sometimes this world is upside down. Hope you are doing well after releasing your thoughts. Thanks for sharing...

Arlo Parker July 26, 2023 at 11:44 AM Subset of bastards: hypocrites! Are we still lawless on Soup (depending on your team affiliation)?

Kim Rodrigues July 26, 2023 at 11:22 AM Too many! None to our liking but too many to deal with! Tirade galour!

John Lawless July 26, 2023 at 11:17 AM I originally wrote this in 2013......and my feelings about a lot of things haven't been altered much by the tides of society and politics.

David Kavanagh July 26, 2023 at 9:12 AM Now you’re talking John, bet that felt good, a shower of no good bastards! makes you wonder what kind of bastards they call us, lol! nice rant, cheers David

Panagiota Romios July 26, 2023 at 7:34 AM John,I love this.}}}} You let it rip in this one and these creeps are all over the planet! Posing as perfect souls, is the horrible part. And the gullible adore them? Looks like you have your feet on the ground. I so admire the fearlessness you exhibit. An above average poem. Pangie

Deb M July 26, 2023 at 6:25 AM Don't hold back John hehe!! Someone upset you or just all bastards in general?!! Ha….Debx

Lin Lane July 26, 2023 at 6:19 AM Never let anyone say John Lawless doesn't write his opinion openly. Stay on your soap box, John... I hope a crowd will gather.
