Badness Poems | Examples

Writing Procrastination

I need a place to sit and relax.
I need the best of snacks.
To start my writing prompt,
I need a slice of pizza to chomp.

I need the tv to turn off.
I wish I had a writing loft.
If someone would put that clutter away,
I could sit quietly and write all day!

Once the quiet sets in.
It’s bedtime, so I settle within.
I’m not tired at the moment.
This silence is heaven sent.

I woke up at 7:00 in the morning.
I wonder if my writing was boring.
I take my notebook out.
Wondering what my writing was about.

A notebook filled without words.
I wish I had written about birds.
Or music, or sadness.
Or even badness.

But now the tv is back on.
Out comes the morning sun.
I really should be writing today.
But sometimes I think there is not much to say.

Bad Halos

I can see halos sometimes.

I like to look in the mirror.

And see the staticky snow that outlines me.

My appearance is a secret,

All I see is the light that surrounds.

Surrounds me and serenades me.

Like an omen,

Or premonition.

Of badness?

Or of something else.

I can see halos sometimes.

I can’t see my face sometimes.

I like to look in the mirror anyway.

The Roles of Education

Wrongdoing such as cheating, lying, bullying ...
Prohibited strictly and used often as warnings 
This fact relieved me, and left me a feeling 
Any of  which will be no longer our problem

It took me a long march of experience to tell
Those  tricky things can indeed achieve winners
Alike the rich, well-known, and high officials
Needing to stand upon other's behaving finer

This assimilated human education with health care
Though they alleviate badness as mutual effect 
Neither education eradicated human misbehaviors 
Nor health care eliminates diseases as a fact

Life Lessons

Life is full of lessons
At the time it is hard to see
Things don’t happen for badness
But to strengthen you and me.  

Tomorrow may seem unbearable  
Today was really rough.
Hard times don’t last forever so keep moving forward when its tough.  

Everything is to teach us
We learn as we grow.
Better days are near us  
I truly believe that is so.  

As each day finishes
Tomorrow is brand new
So re-create your story  
That ability lies with you

Sometimes

Sometimes you get attacked 
When you speak the truth 
Which is not an insult. 
Sometimes some people get offended 
For hating the truth so much. 
Sometimes devil denies
To be the father of lies. 

Sometimes good people get irritated 
By hypocrite people.
Sometimes goodness turns 
badness  in the eyes 
of some people who don't 
know to appreciate others.

Politics Wealth and Evil

Politics is not partisanship...
In the delirium of these dark times, the badness of the bad
lost fear of punishment...
The kindness of good people,
lost hope...
The Good Conscious
we should practice as much as possible
for the impossible...

For the omission of the benevolent
is the rejoicing of evildoers...
Conscious fight without shedding blood,
Warlords with spilled blood...
We must not remain neutral
in the face of injustice,
Let's not compact with the oppressors...
not wash our hands
for our evils,
is to be christian,
wash them is to be
Pontius Pilate...!

The Soldiers of Jesus Christ

We are the African soldiers, 
The soldiers of Jesus Christ.
We are preaching the word of God to win our battle. 
Heavenly Father clothed us with His weapon, 
Which is 
His positive word. 
Holy Ghost clothed us with the powers 
So that people can know Jesus Christ. 
Our enemies use lies to destroy us;
They sing bad songs to insult us. 
They are hypocrites, 
Selfish fishermen fished in the furnace, 
And vomited electric - fish. 
Sunrise and sunset, 
They are in the streets shouting: 
“Shoot soldiers, and shoot officers in the offices “ 
They try to ruin our reputation with the fire and 
We are the fire fighters who fight in fireplaces. 
They are very stubborn, 
Barbarians, 
And blinds who had been blinded by bandits.
They forget that we are protectors
 Who protect protestors. 
Hypocrite hunters who hunt a hippopotamus on the huts.
Goodness is like the fire to them and 
Badness is their cold drinks.
Jealous is their daily uniforms
 And peace is like poison to them.
We are your true soldiers God,
Trained to teach different people. 
Put to shame our enemies; 
We are the powerful soldiers of Jesus Christ.

Premium MemberThe Ms Take It Away

Many moms make a mishmash of marshmallow melon month of rites
Marmie and Magnus mined minx’s minestrone meatball mites
Magnificent Marmaduke mollycoddles minute rice making mush.
Merry majestic Mallificent minced magnetic mimosas in a rush.

Mushroom men marbled Marley’s meatballs mooing with madness.
Muddobber’s melancholy miniscule mites were wooing with sadness.
Magnificence of Manny’s marsh mediates in miniscule rites of badness.
Ma makse a mishmash of marshmallow melons, and it is pure rad-ness.

Heaven Hell Or In-Between

There's a heaven.  There's a hell
Good or bad. Easy to tell
Exactly which way you are going 
From the actions you are showing. 

But is there a place to be
When it's getting hard to see
If the way you have been living
Is complicated and not giving

 Any clues in which direction 
Your life choices will be sending
Your soul inside--will it glow
With shiny wings and halo

Or punished with horns and a tail
When badness caused you to fail
To live neighborly and kind 
Now it's too late to rewind

What happens if its fifty-fifty
Your kind but a little shifty
Leaving  halos/tails --- horns/wings
A strange feeling is the thing

That makes you wonder if there is
A place for people just like this
Somewhere that is in-between
If you are both nice and mean

Premium MemberSin Is Sinister

The Bible acknowledges it.
The psychologist rejects it.
The atheist dismisses it.
The criminal excuses it.

The opposite of perfection.
Humans fall from their high station.
The result of disobedience.
Evidence of man’s rebellion.

We are all infected with it.
No one on earth can escape it.
We are all affected by it.
Try as we might, we can’t tame it.

It not only affects humans
but also, all of creation.
It is the root cause of evil
and causes natural disasters.

Education cannot cure it.
Psychologists cannot treat it.
Surgery cannot remove it.
Home training cannot correct it.

An educated criminal,
Is still a criminal at heart.
Psychiatrists can treat madness,
but they cannot correct badness.

Governments cannot outlaw it.
Prison walls cannot contain it.
Nothing can eradicate it.
We all just have to live with it.

God has the plan to deal with it.
He gives victory over it.
Soon He will eradicate it,
by destroying Satan with it.

Premium MemberJust To Live

There are many dreams alive in a world that we don’t see.
There are many tears cried in a world that we can’t set free.

There are many songs sang in the face of evil winds.
There are many promises solemnly bound that can’t perish when the sunlight dims.

There are many good souls living under the stars we see. 
There is goodness where there is bad and badness where goodness lives.

There is darkness in our hearts and evil in our minds exists.
There is light that turns to dark on narrow paths that we must walk on just to live.

Lazy Souls' Future Is Never Rosy

If life is not properly organized
Our plans totally collapse
If discipline is unrecognized
We all are losing chaps

If time is not well-utilized
We can't reap success
Goals can be by us realized
Only, when, will, we possess

If time is by us wasted
And if we are careless
Glory can't be tasted
We remain only useless

If we allow lethargy
And indulge in laziness
We abuse our energy
And do a losing business

If we can't obey discipline
How can we become great?
If our brain is not keen
Loss enters our gate

Laziness paves the route
To reach doom's kingdom
All our peace, it will loot
To take us to the bottom

If our badness is forgiven
By us without any remorse
A blunder is by us done
As our unhappiness soars

If idly we in life always remain
Our progress will be blocked
Later if to God we complain
We will be by Him only mocked

We must very soon act
And do the best that we can
We must soon create a pact
With wisdom to be a real man

Let us soon rise like the Sun
And coolly tackle like the Moon
Let great acts be wisely done
To make victory come soon!

I Infuse Confidence To Enthuse

If you behave very decently
Life will pass truly pleasantly

Only when you deviate
Badness you radiate

Your life you often check
For wrongs, give a self-kick

None is fully in life perfect
Everyone has a defect

If you properly behave,
Spreads a positive wave

Let your defects be found
Remove them to be sound

Calmly tackle the trouble
Benefits will surely double

Giving for anger room
Will invite hellish gloom

If you are a true believer
You behave like flower

If God-faith you possess
Peace comes in excess

Belief gives relief
Demolishing grief.

Let the Badness Fade

Let it out.
 Scream and shout. 
 Don't hold it in. 
You'll never win. 
If you keep all the badness.
  Inside causing you such sadness.  
Building up till you explode
Leaving you icy and cold
Till it makes you really break
There's only so much you can take
Lean on someone that you trust
Relying on friends is a must

Cruelty of Devilish Enmity

Never fan enmity as it is dangerous
It may lead to severe blood -shed
Instead use kindness to forgive
That alone is the safest action

Anger is not at all a good trait
As it will destroy a whole clan
It will annihilate peace of mind
Affecting the future generation

Killing, injuring or taking revenge
Will extremely extend the issue
Never will it restore noble mirth
As it paves a route for disaster

Humanity must be ever merciful
As that will promote happiness
Hatred in any form is a hindrance
Allow not that devil in your path

Enmity deteriorates our health
By inflicting badness in brain
Love and affection kindly heal
Bestowing health as a bonanza.
