That's So Trivial

Someone is consumed with anger and has gone mad
Venting fitful words of ire ...how childish; how sad
Like a flock of loud crows
The noisy blah blah goes
It's so trite and trivial. Give it up. Egad!


Life is filled with locked doors wherever I may roam
But I will not cry 'wee wee wee' all the way  home
I'm not that little pig
And I don't give a fig
So froth doesn't drip from my mouth like rabid foam


If you've a bone to pick with others in the soup
Work it out instead of posting blog poems of poop
This is a poetry site
There's no need to fight
Don't be sneaky like a fox in a chicken coop

David Kavanagh Date: 7/22/2021 7:02:00 AM A fine tranche of Limericks Jenna, the little piggy one brings home the childishness of blogging rubbish and then blocking responses, Give them an inch they will take a mile, but you’ve certainly let them know you will stand your ground, cheers David Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/22/2021 7:49:00 AM Thank you for your thoughts, David. Seems you and I have standing our ground in common. Poems are meant to be posted as a submission, NOT on a blog to complain about other poets, and I wrote this in defense of a friend.

Denise Retro Date: 7/22/2021 4:16:00 AM Sounds like the soup may be dangerous. Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/22/2021 7:45:00 AM It's not dangerous, but don't take some people who think they are poets seriously. Thanks for stopping by and reading this one, Denise.

Joanna Daniel Date: 7/22/2021 1:20:00 AM Nice limericks, Jenna, some people are like that, can't change them.. Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/22/2021 7:44:00 AM I wouldn't waste my time trying to change closed-minded people, but I felt the need to chastise the chastiser. Thanks for reading my poetry, Jo.

Jan Allison Date: 7/21/2021 1:31:00 PM Excellent ink Jenna. I've blocked and ignored several on the site and couldn't help laugh out loud when said poet has comments turned off on their blog - the irony wasn't lost on me lol:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/21/2021 2:14:00 PM Nor on me, Jan. Some crows caw louder than others for attention.

Rico Leffanta Date: 7/21/2021 11:48:00 AM Why would any sane person read a poem by a poet one does not like? Wasn't school assignments enough for them? Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/21/2021 2:10:00 PM Some people certainly act insane over trivialities, don’t they? Thanks for the visit, Rico.

Victor Buhagiar Date: 7/21/2021 9:28:00 AM I have only two answers: ignore and block them. I always admire your writings. Hugs. Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/21/2021 9:37:00 AM Nah, Victor. I've ignored and blocked but find it more fun to play tit for tat with them. It enlivens the atmosphere and sharpens the mind. Thank you for liking my writes in what ever form or reasoning they appear. Hugs.

Kim Rodrigues Date: 7/21/2021 8:57:00 AM Seems to happen from time to time. I say just concentrate on poetry. Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/21/2021 9:34:00 AM Hey Kim. I've been busier than usual and out of town for the last week, so I've not been able to write decent poetry for posting, but I have been made aware of a certain situation in which a blogger likes to bully, yet plays the part of a victim. I find writing limericks to be a perfect reply.

Tom Cunningham Date: 7/21/2021 8:39:00 AM Well written Jenna, I agree its a poetry site not a battle ground and some need to be aware of that, love the lims. Tom Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 7/21/2021 9:31:00 AM Hi Tom. There are a few who SELDOM contribute poems to the site in the proper manner, but seem hell bent to battle with a pen, so I say..."Bring it!" Thanks for liking the lims, Tom. They are indeed addictive to create.
