Best Buffoon Poems


Donald Trump, That Disgusting Buffoon,
Donald Trump, that disgusting buffoon,
Grimaces and gestures like a demented baboon.
     Liar and con man,
     A friend of the Klansman,
As well as of Putin and his KGB goons....

A Buffoon of a Tune
A Buffoon Of A Tune

My boyfriend looks like a buffoon
He thought he could sing a great tune
Couldn't hold a note
Was holding a tote
Instead he flew right to the moon.

An Old Self-Scorning Buffoon
Although aging may not be a present thing to experience
it is a great blessing. No matter how hard he tries to understand 
old age, the youth will never be able to conceive the meaning of aging,
nor can taste the fruits of real human pathos that...

The Buffoon
So there it was nigh on high noon
In the heat of  summer's day,
When down the street walked the buffoon
While the town folk were napping away.

No one took much notice at first
Of the buffoon out on the street;
They'd not recognize his mighty thirst
While dozing there...

The Buffoon
You should watch how you treat me
Or you will end up in a poem - believe me
I heard every snide thing you said
I saw every shake of your head
Your body language told more than you wanted said
The senses of a writer are well tuned
Easily spotting...

Bluetooth Fools the Buffoon
So I had an appointment today to inspect a motorcycle in Stevenson. I pulled up to the house and walked to the front door then knocked. A woman opens the door and I say, I'm here to inspect the motorcycle for the insurance company. We're...

My Life Is a Buffoon
Bit by bit I build my life 
But it never becomes a structure 
Where I can put my head in rest 
Lay down my soul in peace 
Neither has it become a calculation 
Though I keep adding and subtracting 
 Till date I did the...

An Old Grumbling Buffoon
On these lonely and forlorn days,
the word past,
more than the word future,
grew and piled high as the castle wall.
I acquired a tendency to measure my future
from the length of the setting sun on other side of 
this view obstructing wall.

As the wall becomes higher,
the sunset...

Buffoon Reads History
I met a raccoon with a look so gullible;
Stumbling he came from a jungle called global.

Among the families with a very few high caste,
He lives in the periphery as an utter outcaste.

When asked to describe his present destiny,
He sneered and I said, "For villainy and...

Premium Member A Buffoon Type Restaurant
What's a buffoon type restaurant
We serve ourselves and eat what we want
Gain humongous pounds
Till we can't walk around
Perhaps I'm thinking of a “buffet” response...

laugh …

please feel free
the fat old man is here for
your entertainment
‘there must be a purpose that we strung
the aged fool along for’ …
right??
it’s not that I feel like an impish idiot
(though I do … completely)
the contrary element is that it’s
not like ME …
I’ve always been...

Big Buffoon With a Balloon
Big Buffoon With A Balloon

Instead of being a dumb, big buffoon,
Always walking around with a balloon;
Our intuition;
Poor politician
Wish would leave and live in a cocoon.

Sound familiar?

Premium Member Cowardly Buffoon
He is a cowardly buffoon
Less cowboy than poltroon
Cringes in fear at the moon
Afraid of bubbly lagoon

Doesn’t make anyone swoon
Terrified of a small raccoon
Shrieks and hides from a blown-up balloon
A forever alone weird little goon...

Dad Leaves Six To Face Life
Harold died leaving six behind,
Whom few close families might mind
By being to them honestly kind.
They'd cross them in streets like the blind!

Harold's son by slight buffoon,
As he does self in pubs cocoon,
His daughters! 'Yes' to men too soon,
At nights waiting to kiss the moon...

Six left...
