Best Burst Your Bubble Poems

MY CRAZY CREATURES

This rhyme's about creatures of various sorts.
Creatures with fangs, hairy bellies and warts.
They cause lots of mischief all day long.
Mum always blames me but I’ve done nothing wrong. 
These creatures are crazy. They’re not what you'd think.

The Greek gods were egotistic, arrogant, jealous,
Said to be excellent lovers, fanatics, and zealous
About everything and anything, lounged around
Adorning places like Marathona, the Acropolis
The Parthenon.  Archaeology
Maintains that Greek Mythology 
Goes back to the Bronze age,
A long ago historical stage.
Statues have been discovered, displayed 
Or...

I got nothing but love for you,
baby boy, you're my best friend
We been through a whole lot together,
best buds forever, thick and thin

Now I wouldn't be looking out for you,
if I let you keep getting dumped on this way
You can't see it with those lovey-dovey...

Escaping from a situation even if only...

I can breeze the smell of garbage everywhere in the streets of brooklyn
the government let us down after a heat wave not sending trucks for the pick
as so easy to keep the rats at bay with votes as all we need is reality
a third world...

Ain't it strange...
That I attach to you...like a troublesome sore
Do you find it odd...
That I truly love you to the core

But it's true...I can get a little insane at times...when I'm in a certain phase
Sorry to say, but get used to my crazy, psychotic nature...or...

So you think you know just how us cowboys should behave
But listening to your jawing, I hear Chisholm spinning in his grave
A Cowboy who don’t drink or cuss, I’ll tell you that’s not right

Monoku quote by poet


Foremost on my mind today
is much the same as yesterday,
but not quite!

A nuanced imperceptibly has taken place

What say!

The cosmos has grown by one light day

beyond the observable horizon...

Our beloved Planet lies in peril...
The Lords of Passion would decree.
The weather's getting warmer
As any fool can plainly see.

But I hate to burst your bubble
As Mother Nature takes her course.
We be but a temporary infestation
That for the moment sallies forth.

The ice caps will lose their...

Who in the world is better than my mommy
Certainly not a Bobcat named Tommy
For my mom's better than a friend
She's the person on whom I can depend
I'm the luckiest fellow that she's my mommy 

So today this message I write
to make her day turn out...

(Tongue in cheek! LOL)

Nobody's perfect but I come pretty close
Don't usually brag about my prowess
But sometimes I just get so overwhelmed
My enthusiasm for me is boundless

You may be annoyed by my constant bragging
But when you're as perfect as me
It's almost impossible to let it go...

You've placed me on a pedestal
from which I can but fall
you've conjured up an image
that isn't me at all

I hate to burst your bubble
with this fiction you've created
but the picture burns a little bright
it's a little over stated

I know you think you know me
but I'm...

Echoes, silence, peace and violence


All we need is peace, love and empathy.
All we have is war.
All we ever wanted was to be set free;
Still they keep us trapped inside these four walls.


Have a food fight with a butter knife;
The sound of bullet’s ricochet through streets...

Be prepared all you young'uns
The golden years aren't always golden
Looking ahead when I was younger
Thought, “what a fantastic notion”

Life would be a blast lounging around
Enjoying my life at its best
Sorry to have to burst your bubble
Coz here comes the real test

You wake up early each...
