Best Competitive Poems

Do you think of me when you're gone?
Do you believe I can move on?
Darling, I'm sorry if I hurt you in anyway
Someday, I will reach the finish line, okay?

I know you don't care much for me
But, I will be free with sunlit glee
I know you...

We left the camp all hot and hungry.
We were on a mission.
Through cracked lips I softly asked
“Are we huntin’ or are we fishin’?”
Orders said, “Cast the bait!
Use any lures we can employ!
Get your barrels loaded fast!
We’re gonna need hounds and decoys!”
He was said to be...

Joy for me means that  

You are here where I once sat 

Clutching the reigns  

Playing political games  

Taking over my tasks  

Saying ‘I am not wearing any deceptive masks’  

Making decisions  

Moving into position  

No longer in...

Down at the local health club site
Where barbells clank with muscled might
The biggest display of competitive pace
Is muscling for the closest parking space

Be Competitive

Be competitive,
And also repetitive;
What a way to live.

Winning every race, you just may not;
What’s important is giving all you got.

In running the race, you must never give up;
The will to go on, never let anything interrupt....

I find nothing wrong with being educated--
As long as one's education doesn't exceed one's intelligence.
Ya  know what I mean Vern?
It's like putting two friendly cats in a sack,
shaking it up and dumping them out.
Each will claw and scratch to get ahead,
as they hit the...

I me 2 

Am fiercely competitive as well

Suppose that is not so much a new

But commonality thread

That bonds us together

Surely makes us in fact human 

Like string flaccidly detached from
an ailing kite

Floating slowly ebbing away on
a windless day

With NA emblazoned in bold capital
letters upon it...

Conversation today took a competitive turn.
My daughter we saying she should clean something.
I talked her out of it, she only has so many hours off a week.
Why do something you don’t want to do?

She tells me that she has a mess on the floor that...

Such a wonderful sight 
A horse going into flight 
Captured in a lens 
Documenting by the writer's pen 
For once  a horse was used for war 
And now has a prescence of peace with a score 
May we continue the beauty of a horse...

Sedative for Competitive

When you became too competitive
Might need a reliable sedative
That you can always depend on
And after they are all gone
In dreamland will have to live.

Sure seems like our whole environment
is artificial now a days. A few arts here
and a few arts there.

A most competitive tool is my car.
She really hates to be passed on the road.
Whether we are traveling near or far,
Passing turns her into an evil toad.

My right foot presses pedal to the floor.
Doing a hundred, or maybe a bit more.
She throws logic out the...

The digital world comes
And an old man seems to become
A social outcast
Using a telephone instead of a handphone
Using a typewriter instead of a computer
Writing a letter instead of an email
Reading newspaper instead of electronics news
Having posting service instead of express delivery
Using a cash purchase instead...

A competitive poet with ego galore
is always "one upping" to even some score.
They disguise their sarcasm in metaphors.
Most of the time I politely ignore as
no one needs a poetry war....

Playing a game on a checkered board 
No need for armor and sword 
Only a decisive mind 
Thoughtful strategy and enough time 
Concentrating with a stare 
Capturing pieces without a care 
Characters used straight out from mid evil books 
A knight making hops and hooks...
