Chris Hagy Poet Rhyme

Push Shove

PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                            Pushing me again
                                     Test the walls! Test them all!
                                          Cry wicked little men	
                                    PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                        How strong is your love?
                                     Hopes of peace… kill them all!
                                    And bring them the white dove
                                    PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                        How much will you give?
                                     However much, it isn’t enough
                                         So pay the price to live
                                     PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                         Don’t you make a sound
                                 Get up! Lay down! And turn around
                                       Time to go round for round
                                     PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                            Shoving too far now
                                  They never see what it does to me
                                   And I’ve reached the bottom now
                                     PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                            Pushing from below
                                        Up I come, dare I say run?
                                        Or let the vengeance flow

                                     PUSH SHOVE… PUSH SHOVE
                                      Works both ways you know

Anne-Lise Andresen April 6, 2018 at 4:07 AM - Every day a struggle for existence - Life among humans is unfair ... some never needs to lift a finger ... we call it "being born with golden spoon in the mouth" - A great poem, Chris - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Chris Hagy April 6, 2018 at 10:01 AM ...more venting I guess...I get angered therefore I write! However I am still grateful for all I do have, and believe that riches of the heart and mind are far better than ill-gotten gain :) Good inspiration to you Sunshine :) C.H.

Richard Lamoureux April 4, 2018 at 9:19 AM I wonder what would happen if the whole world decided to stop trading with the USA. I’m not sure if your President realizes how his actions are eroding the confidence of the World. There seems to be a lack of understanding of economic principles. Chris Hagy April 4, 2018 at 10:04 AM Unfortunately there is a great lack of principles everywhere Richard. I am a middle class American, and my husband and I were just fined $800 dollars for not being able to afford mandated, over inflated, health care for a few months last year! (And we did have any medical costs during that time either.) I try to stay positive, but had to write this little rant. Thanks for stopping in, have great day :) C.H.

Joseph May March 28, 2018 at 12:22 PM The tide has turned, now the victim becomes the victor...Nicely expressed Chris Chris Hagy March 28, 2018 at 8:32 PM Thanks for the visit and kind words Joseph :) Score one for us middle class women haha! :0 Have a great day :) C.H.

Andrea Dietrich March 27, 2018 at 8:23 PM YOU GO!!!! I like this a lot. Is it for one of the rhyming contests? Chris Hagy March 27, 2018 at 9:02 PM Thanks Andrea, always love your visits :) No not for any contest, just for me. Besides horses and animals, writing has always been a source of sanity for me, and I can't put a "placement" on that :) Hope you get this reply...have lovely day :) C.H.

Silent One March 27, 2018 at 2:14 PM You tell him!!! Don't let em get away with it, fight back there is always help Chris... Chris Hagy March 27, 2018 at 8:48 PM Thanks so much for always visiting...let me assure you I am not in an abusive relationship. My last 2 posts are older writes I revised.I always have been and always will be a fighter, not just for myself but others as well. And I hope these writes will be encouragement for them. (also tired of our pushy politicians and corporations) Have a marvelous day :) C.H.

Paul Callus March 27, 2018 at 11:17 AM Enough is enough, and the victim finally decides to fight back! Abusers get lost and flustered when somebody stands up to them! Perhaps no need for vengeance, but giving them a bit of their own medicine might do them good:) Regards // paul Chris Hagy March 27, 2018 at 8:33 PM We all seem to be victims here in America lately!...just a little of that frustration oozing onto paper haha :0 Thanks for visiting Paul, have a lovely day :) C.H.
