Best Cockiness Poems

It either kills the person or gives them glory.
It has it’s own life and demands territory. 
It is one of the seven most deadly sins.
Be very careful because it could make your life end.

What did you do to be so tired,
You are to young, why aren't you awake all wired?
Is it because you weren't good at your job, and got fired?
So sad, here's something that will leave you inspired.

Get some sleep and wake up real early,
Especially if you...

Through Their Eyes (originally "Just Desserts for Rats")

Still touching the hilt of the sword, she declares, 
“No fencing for HIM at the end of the month. His pastime is so bloody boring!” 
The mouse in her house regards her with cockiness from underneath a chair.

Don’t throw it away
I never had lots of people that actually believed in me as a kid  . I always had these delusional thoughts that one day everybody would love me and believe in me. Well it came eventually to this day when I...

Peter Pan? He is nothing but a tale drawn out,
a hero of half-truths, drowned in fairy dust,
the dullest side of a double-edged sword.
 
Before my time lost its salt, 
before the boards of this ship were
chapped, split with oceans breath, 
before my features grew distinct...

Recently, I thought upon the story of Jesus and his disciples having their Last Supper together.  I considered the fact that there were few food items with which to part take.  Or were there? For example, just to name a few, there was...

New England's post election trees
shed a few teary waving leaves.
Morning sky tries to shine resilience
yet lingers in ominous grey overcast
of silent waiting through despair.

In Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania

who cherish their daughters
are beating themselves up about yesterday;
longing for a do-over
to avoid...

All today I had the blues
Because I listened to the news,
Learning Iowans did choose
Not Trump or Rubio, but Cruz.

This candidate does not amuse.
His cockiness just seems to ooze
From all his pores and in reviews,
His own Grand Party can’t enthuse.

Fellow African-Americans Please Don't Get Offended...This Is Purely Fictional

...Sitting comfortably in the shade, I'm trying to relax
Muscles aching from whipping 20 blacks on their backs
Teach them White Power
For the last 2 hours

From the traces of Amelia Earhart
Her roots We could be tying
Considering how she had
Mastered "the Art of Flying"
So naturally doing her Snap rolls
The way a Computer geek
On the Internet, does his scrolls
Soaring through thin air
About the Earth's equator
Using her woman's intuition
To be her navigator
Knowing by...

Time: the biggest landlord
At whose feet kings and queens bow
Cockiness and stubborn they can ill afford
When time wipes vanity and sagacity from their brow

In consonance with the mandate
Bestowed on time from on high
As no other candidate
Dares to ply

The trade in enthralling beauty
That leaves onlookers out...

WHOOF!
We are not all chasing our tails in the very same way
We are not all praying for the same thing every day
We are all just hopeful that he or she will come along
And we will find the embrace in which we belong

She’s chasing her tail...
