Best Asseveration Poems
Long poems are for the birds!
They have just too many words.
I like ‘em short and sweet,
Like something axiomatic that I can “tweet”.
Poems that appeal to people who are real,
Not some long spiel.
Long poems leave me cold.
By the time you’ve finished them you’re old!
“Keep it simple, stupid” is my motto.
Altruistically speaking, I’m not trying to win the Word Lotto.
Long words too with hidden meanings
Are for people with intellectual leanings.
I’m on a word diet.
My asseveration is: Get rid of the fat words and try it.

The sponsor chose words I’ve never heard of before
So if I don’t win the contest I’ll declare he’s a bore
It’s axiomatic that I’ve an altruistic attitude
But I don’t give a fig if folks think that I’m rude!
I’ll sign a declaration of my asseveration
Then bare my teeth like an angry Alsatian!
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words
Is this word some kind of cynical joke aimed at dim witted nerds!

As human beings, we are set a trust
Dominion over all such lesser things
Yet it's axiomatic that we turn to dust
The best of what our erudition brings
We take a fertile clay in hand to mold
The asseveration of our bright intents
To throw upon life's wheel and thus behold
The magic that our work and will relents
But much of what we strive for falls away
Our altruistic hopes and aims devoured
By all that glitters gold with glut and pay
The milk of our accomplishment so soured
Perhaps if we'd first taste that bitter cream
We'd shape a world more fit ... our childrens' dream.

No asseveration can appease
my Othello suffering husband
despite an axiomatic love
held only for thee.
Yet an altruistic devotion
runs deep within me.
Love is blind you see.
To see or not to see...
that is the question!

In disingenuous defenseless dreams of the damned have wept
They awaken within sempiternal solitudes that they have slept
They're above all asseveration of tenacious tears they accept
For inside patricentric passage of time becomes illogically inept
The axiomatic assembly of manqué multitudes in pacifistic plight
Their damnation dorms of diversity desecrated upon a fatal finite
Humankind’s humility a harbinger of ritualistic recrudescent rite
And sorrowful sins syndicate with vigorous velocity and appetite
Their altruistic ambient soul tangled torn beyond comprehension
Desolate deprived within a deceitful delight of a demons detention
Isolated and audaciously abandoned onto the grasp of evil intention
May love levitate their tragic turmoil and align them with ascension.

Since industrialization there’s been agitation frustration palpitation trepidation vociferation
And unequivocal asseveration in favour of our planet’s welfare glorification and protection
Premeditated or not, the results on the planet are nothing short of brutalization and martyrization
Damage is irreversible and orchestrated with acceleration towards matricide and genocide no question
Axiomatic domination exploitation contamination violation decimation decapitation
Take their toll from appropriation to deforestation, amputating earth’s lungs without arbitration
Patronizing politicians greedy for ovations ignore aggravation assassination brutification asphyxiation
Not fooling anyone with altruistic motives of lavishing ones with undue admiration and accreditation
We’re beyond allegations and accusations of criminal irresponsible desensitization and legitimation
Way beyond denials repudiation vacillation and claiming a convocation for immediate restoration
The truth is we’re an actualized and glorified civilization cohabitating with vegetation and crustacean
We claim to have more intelligence yet all we show is irreverence greed alienation and agglomeration
The truth is the damage humans have created in the last hundred years amounts to irreparable laceration
Optimists say it’s not too late to opt for self-preservation with inspiration adaptation and indoctrination…

God’s presence* in my life daily is my utmost desire
Such is axiomatic every time I wake up ‘til I retire...
His peace is what I want to reign over me surely
To conquer my fears triumphantly.
In His compassion is where I find freedom indeed
As I fellowship with Him, unmindful of time to exceed…
I thank His joy embracing me upon His certainty
Dispelling my thoughts of anguish and anxiety…
Thus, His guidance keeps me settled
Leading me to be altruistic where I’m lovingly handled...
His grace hedges me around His embrace
Away from Him, my asseveration won’t have value-trace…
Truly, victory awaits me thru His power
To bear service-fruits as His diligent sower!
*Psalm 116:14 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.

Think Robert was bored one night
Cos when I saw the 3 words I didn't have a clue
Think he had a dictionary for dinner
I went and reached for mine, so now I do
It is axiomatic that this word is not an every day one
Not to me for sure, can imagine my families faces
Would think I had too much wine or sun
Especially if I added an altruistic attitude to people and places
I hereby offer an unsupported asseveration
Admitting to not knowing many words in the English language
If over 6 letters long....
we all can learn ..easy to ascertain knowledge.

The Charlatan
In honesty young Sir, I have good reason to doubt,
When you tell me “My word is my bond.”
I fear your insistent asseveration is but a scam,
With hope to take my chattels and abscond.
You talk in a manner of self-confidence,
It would be easy to succumb to your plan.
A charlatan, a dishonest schemer, a cheat,
Not as you assert, “the epitome of an altruistic man”
I have testimony to your wicked villainy,
From a Woman of good character and trust.
It is self-evident, positively axiomatic,
You are but a common thief;
I feel only disgust.

Where Can They Go?
So axiomatic, they'll be displaced
from forest homes, they harbored many years.
Now, over time, their shelters were replaced;
their land dug up by building engineers.
The deer and fox, wild turkeys, many more
inhabited these backwoods, then pristine,
along the banks of nearby river shore,
enjoying nature's ways, yet hardly seen.
But, now they're roaming in our private yards;
no longer can enjoy their wild enclave.
Their virgin forest bulldozed, ground to shards.
No altruistic thoughts the builders gave.
Rejecting asseveration - no regards,
their mega-mansions built with disregards.

My eyes move towards the hallow
Leaving the thoughts - nearly shallow
I know, your love is axiomatic
But the way you tie the knot
I get strangled in it
I am a free spirit, like the wind
I roam here and there on my own will
I am not that guy whom you can bind
I take charge on my own driving wheel
Altruistic love
Restricts me to be harsh - but
Continuously
You need asseveration
From me, to say, " I love you"

To tread lightly on Planet Earth
To dive in with a tiny weeny splash
To cover your cough and not foul the air with smoke
To ardently proclaim earth's preservation
is an altruistic axiomatic asseveration to Gaia.
