Premium Member Out On the Curb, Like An Old Sofa
Parts of our lives are always a little messed up,
but we don't have to try to fix each other,
that we can do on our own if we choose to try.

What I want to be is realistic,
without just walking away,
because we can't be together every day.

Don't...

Exactly When Will U People Learn To Curb Your Desire To Post Insults To Great Poets Like Me
HORRID HARMONY

She’s a horrible lady who does horrible things
But man, the lady sings
She’ll bend a note while you lend an ear
And her falsetto is something you really must hear

She’s an insolent woman with wicked ways
She wants to be worshipped but never prays
Yet she makes every...

Curb Children
The curb children sit on the curbs in front of their houses
Boys with boys and girls with girls
They’re between the ages of five and eight

They have nice backyards but all the cars and people 
That go by can only be seen if they sit on...

Out On the Curb
At the curb
Without its mother
Rusty creature
Up to your knee
New born from the wild
Of unwanted chances
Hobbles on training wheels
Pink-perked handlebar ears
Hand written sign
FREE
Dangling by string
Around its neck
Cottonwood freckles
Snowing seed from the spring
Dots the little thing
The mailbox
And manicured lawn
Camouflages
A hesitation
At a honking horn
From our new neighbor
With young...

Curb the Herb With Verve
Curb The Herb With Verve

Instead of controlling and then try and curb
California has named Marijuana as State Herb;
When there went;
Became impotent;
Smoking and use of are each correct verb.

Curb All Desires That Disturb
In case you curb desires, then you win
As your mind is devoid of any bad greed
By suppressing peevish ideas, you clean
Your mind and grow there peace-flowers

Only by overcoming our mind, we succeed
In doing great acts of valor and real merit
We must boost our confidence with...

Kick Wondering To the Curb
What we suspect is almost always never what it seems,
So why make assumptions we put in place and believe,
Some things we know beyond the shadow of a doubt,
And even then we're still trying to figure it out,
I've had it, I'm done...control can take a backseat,
I'm...

Your Heading For the Curb!
Years ago, not yesterday
When I was dumb and young
I lost the man and children I love
A new life had begun

I forgave us
For all we did wrong
Accepted the consequences
Tried to move on

Memories were making my heart weep
Evidence of them everywhere
Put the worst of it all in...

Hit Crucial Curb
Trump had preferred to eat a certain herb;
When he did caused him to hit crucial curb;
Heard horn honkers,
And he went bonkers;
Driving hard bargain many would disturb.

Premium Member Kicked To the Curb
There she lies, all bruised and bleeding.
She always gets up.
There's no conceding.
She'll never comprehend the reason.
Was it too easy because she was seasoned?
Another's strong emotional reaction kicked her to the curb.
Now she's in traction.
A broken system in the dust.
Whom can one truly trust?
Regardless how cloudy...

At the Curb
Christmas trees, some quite superb,
All sit neglected, at the curb.
They’d graced somebody’s living room
‘Til needles cried out for a broom.

Then they were stripped and dragged out, bare,
Just like the owners didn’t care.
Their ornaments were boxed away
Until another Christmas day.

But all their glory came and went;
For...

TRUMP IN THE NETHER NETHER

If irate American born Mexicans were to rally together,
Around the world, they could perhaps cunningly tether,
Possibly calm, an uncaring, inhumane disliked leader
Maybe curb the actions of this Mexican bleeder,
Or, banish him forever to the land of nether, nether!

Premium Member Go, Go, Go
Life in the fast lane
... is go, go, go,
Fleeting in vain ...
Take the one that's slow

100 miles per hour
Pedal to the metal,
One foot has the power
To let that needle settle

Time goes by fast
It goes fast enough, 
Speeding right passed
All the good stuff

Rush, rush, rush 
There...
