Best Cowardice Poems

He’d been too yellow to admit he was having an affair
Susie was seething and started screaming at his deception
She’d found long blonde hairs in her husband’s Cadillac car
Slowly she poured paint stripper over its ochre paintwork

I hate myself today,
I hate being black
I hate that I didn’t help defend those
white supremacists, who were under heavy 
anti-fascist attack
I hate that I chose to silently collaborate
with those fighting to protect democracy
Why didn’t I assist the alt-right people,
who wants us to be ruled by...

The Cowardice of the Taliban and The Silence of The Good Muslims.


When hot lead tears the flesh of a 14 year old girl,

ripping through her skull,
leaving her to bleed out and die,

does Allah not recoil in horror,

to see His child whimper,
to see His daughter cry.

Where...

Evil, Guns, Cowardice, Stupidity, and Fear

is anybody out there?
does anyone really care?

seventeen innocent souls departed this earth
unexpectedly and tragically so whilst leaving
grieving loved ones, classmates, and friends
to wade through another mass-murder event

is anybody out there?
does anyone really care?

many clownish and dud politicians in Washington, DC
including...

My pen is hurt and it shakes as I write this,
the cowardice and the lack of courage displayed;
by a group with a cult like devotion is sad to behold,
morals are gone and history will not be kind.

My pen is hurt and it shakes as I...

I was once bullied, beaten 
Burned and buried
With sneering slurs

I was an introvert
I gave them love
My compassion
I gave them all I had
They took advantage of me
And still I kept giving
And they took everything 
And left me with nothing else to give
But hatred 

I was afraid...

COWARDICE
 
My Good Brother
My Good Brother;
When did you turn to be a woman?
A fearful woman polishing your face with several 
Bright assorted creams,
Tending your hair with expired permanent waves,
Wearing very short and transparent dresses that 
Revealed the most hidden parts of your precious body,
Telling us...

Heroes and cowards share one thing in common.
Both Are Very Afraid.
Neither wants to do what needs to be done,
but the hero does it anyway....

Cowardice and Heroism,
both share one thing in common.

Someday when my land is more fertile 
And my gardener is ready to toil
I shall welcome you my precious flower 
And nurture you in my soil

Faced with responsibility and emotion
Humbled by the reality of obligation 
I am compelled to be a coward 
Too afraid to...

Be of courageousness, 
And not of cowardice.
Be of strength, 
And not of weakness.
Be of joy,
And not of sorrow.
Be of joy, 
Because there's a better tomorrow.
Be of love, 
And not of hate.
Be of an emboldened spirit, 
And stand in your faith.
Whatever offenses you may encounter in...

The devil is in hearts of the many too afraid to be themselves 
That are first to face the tune of day's clock 
With wickedness thrained their dereliction can't stop
They're prudently persistent about the way you do things 
Having absolutely no concept of love or...

You see them always blathering
on the internet and TV,
a bunch of adult pretenders,
parroting that tired P.C.,
telling the general public
what they should believe and should be,
as if we should listen to them
simply because they are pretty.

In fact, given their profession
mandates that they lie, and do it...

A man who is hurt beyond words
Begins to think of crossing swords
The air rending with harsh war cries:
"Shame on who for cowardice flies!"

A man who is hurt beyond words
Terrible things does to binding cords:
No more rushed "Hellos" and "His"
He leaves minds to find out the...
