Beg Poems

Kings Who Beg

Even a stray dog chooses dignity over slavery,
but you — so-called African leaders —
have chosen puppetry.
The Western world laughs at your blindness,
a blindness born of greed and cowardice.

If they call you in Russia, you go.
If they call you in China, you go.
If they call you in America, you go.
Always summoned, never summoning.
Even as you feed

Premium MemberPeople Beg Me to Not Cook

When I want to cook others beg me to stop.
I once baked a cake that when rolled could hop.
We made it into balls and watched it go down the walk.
Some of it was whisked away by a determined chicken hawk.

Hope that bird does not die, my sister said.
She loves to cook, can make pies, puddings

run before you lose your life to her

While you drown in tears everynight 

she dosent even care enough to think about you once

While you kneel and beg for her to return 

she dosent even care enough to look down 

Run before you lose your life to her

forget every moment you ever shared 

Try to live once again

Premium MemberBeg Your Pardon

I’m in the band called “Beg Your Pardon”
Our latest, “The Luddits Headway”
Sells well, and the “Forest of Arden”
Our hit, has got some airplay
There ain’t no plans for touring though:
The phase of changes lingers on
Our singer left to form the “Zoo”
Our drummer yesterday has gone 
The reason was the weak attendance
Our captive crowd went away
Eventually, our

AN ENDANGERED MOUSE

A man is born homo-Erectus
Into a world
Where women wants 
To usurp authority
A world where
Women will electrocute her man
If she can’t wrap him
Around her little fingers
Thus I often beg God
For one big favor…
Let me die
The death of the righteous
The day I become
An endangered mouse

Premium MemberI beg pardon, I'll try again, to gather

I beg pardon, I'll try again, to gather
From your verse the voice, to align it with my own song,
May words flow in a magic pulse, under the clear moonlight,
Swaying in metaphor and dream, until I respond to you.
Wreathing my thoughts in the ephemeral flames of stars,
Amongst the equinoxes of soul and solstices of arched heart,
With

Pride Enough To Beg

Now your crown lays broken
And your scepter duly snapped
Your feet so fleet now leaden
Your might of arm too, sapped.
Yet cling you to times due passed
And vainly hope for morrow bright
Your paltry breath would scarcely last
Sustained you still your burning pride
So quick to kneel and grind your head
To dust, so rightly blithe
Your noble soul demands be

Premium MemberBeg of Night

The dawning sky   lightened
   as day crept up   the horizon
   pushing Night   
   toward his exit   passage
While all of early rising
   could hear   the wind of Night
   pleading piteously   to the Day:

Beg To See Leg With Peg

when we would rehearse
shallow we had found our purse
things will become worse

we could comprehend
that rules will have to amend
prayers to God send

mouth started to sag
when he had been known to brag
ball would have to shag


always great to know
bad news when off big mouth blow
we had told them so

from will have to rid
attitude would be rancid

Premium MemberGentle Earth, I Beg of You -

Gentle Earth, I beg of you –
Whisper to us the first sign of spring. 
Annul this wintry despair
And a season of life anew, bring. 
From the depths of Baja
Carry the warmth in upon a draft. 
Poke the sunshine through grumbly clouds
And send it down as a gilded shaft. 
Clothe the desert with the raiment
Of fleeting

O' lover, I Beg You Give A Reply

O' love this simple truth I now shall pen!
My wounded heart will bleed it out in ink
Our love was beautiful and 'twas no sin
Being without you now is all I think!

O' love where is thy sweetest angel kiss
And the pure joy of thy red blooming heart
