Harry Horsman Poet Limerick

On Earth

There is more than the top music hit list 
Despots armed with a lethal poison twist 
Some say come down to their level 
Disguised, distort as the devil 
Or just do nothing if you get my gist.

Jennifer Proxenos February 1, 2023 at 7:38 AM Hi Harry, a very down to Earth write, i do absolutely get your gist but fools do rush in, where angels fear to tread. Hope you are well, very well again, just seeing another poem from you makes me happy, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Beryl Edmonds February 1, 2023 at 7:03 AM Very true Harry. If music produced the only hits on earth, the sole missiles we’d all know would be those from Cupid’s bow… Belle

Stephan McBride January 25, 2023 at 5:18 PM It's a world against God , it's like watching everything we should not be doing taking place, sadly ,

Sara Kendrick January 25, 2023 at 12:11 PM Yes, some people do have a hit list that is not music. Sad is what it is. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page with congrats. Sara

Sotto Poet January 25, 2023 at 7:27 AM Harry, your poetry is profound and honest. We all have those moments when we feel too befuddled to do what has to be done.
