Best Demanding Poems


Ungrateful People
Why is it when you go out of your way
To help someone brighten their day
Or solve a problem that has things in disarray
They want to play you as if to say
You owe them in some superficial way

Putting on some kind of poor me display
Overshadowing the kindness you portray
Some are not able to see the good...

Gods Of Man's Vanity Demanding Intolerance


False realities fed to the masses
Another ghost ships sails the seas
Knowing not, yet their lie passes
Escaping truth's majestic pleas
God of vanity demands intolerance
Only its hate is to be displayed
Damn morals, into deeper ignorance
Silent servitude must then be paid
Love, always a great promised reward
Yet black evil roots firmly laid
In black garden...

A Demanding Steed
A Demanding Steed

Once upon a crisp Winter morning, while the cardinals so lively, announced the awakening of a new day. 
I sprang out of bed, pressed play on the radio, and begin to dress for a trek across the field and dance.
My brown leather boots were still warm from the heater they had been placed...

Demanding Life
It was a compulsive decision
critical in its form
difficult to understand
while exacting some of the truth.
my exhausting mid
became hard to comprehend.

Thoughts pressed and developed
I strictly forbid to except
I became stringent
stress turned burdensome
I was living a tough life.

Troublesome I became
trying to achieve the impossible
mornings became nagging
nights were wearing.

Waking up felt irritating
clamorous
but imperative
I fussed about everything
in a grievous...

I Stop Asking and We Start Demanding
I
Gave up
Asking for
Water when
I can make honey
And everything of money.
I stopped waiting on Top Men
When I can bend and make more.
I went into mine and let the Top Men
Theirs and start working for all I can give.

Here is where we start asking the Top Men
For the schools, hospitals, roads and all
They swore to give us...

Quit Being So Demanding
Quit Being So Demanding

March wind with misery before April and May
Causing asthma to flare up and fever of hay
You may be really allergic to many things
Coughing and sneezing to you it brings.

There are those in Tunisia who have said
People were wounded and often had bled
To death from injuries that they received
What person is the one...

Demanding and Commanding
Demanding and Commanding

Once in our world did exist understanding;
Being replaced by controlling and demanding;
Canter of attention;
We must mention;
Maintaining a lead constantly commanding.

Harsh words don't sit well

Whatsapp Christianity Made In China
I
Capitalists sell prayers and hope
From China, PRC, to you and me
In images and words: forward these
To all your contacts - such positivity
Yet we hear, embedded spyware 
Comes with readymade China prayer
To Jesus or more often, "the Universe"

II
LORD, I owe my all to thee
My two children from a first marriage
And my current, S. African family
Blended families...

Premium Member Demanding To Get In
Dead people are shouting at the gates, demanding to get in.
I look at the head devil; he has green curly hair on his chin.
Why they want in here is anyone’s guess, he says to me.
It’s not like we’re party animals; there is no kind of glee.

Let us in! One of the loudest ones demands in...

Premium Member My Id Was Demanding
I took out my id and went for a walk.
She was in a daring mood and started to squawk.
I want cotton candy, popcorn and a fresh hot dog too.
She was most demanding before she was through.

I laughed at her urges, they came hard and fast.
She was jealous of attractive women we passed.
I want that scarf,...

Premium Member Incessant and demanding
I observe the continual ' over liberal 'design.' Demand
Demand and to shoot, is there any moral line.?
Spurred on by sucsss's over forty years.'
Assulting workable familiy units.. With a barrage
Of anger passive agression false piety? And many tears
Yet the formula it seems has garnerd,  gains? And room
To cause so much division, self-doubt indeed so much...

Premium Member The Pepperman and the Demanding
I OPENED A DOOR
TO THE NEXT WORLD WHERE
A FEW CONTROLLED
THE REST DIDN'T CARE.

SUSPICIOUS LIKE THOUGHTS
SURROUNDED MY BEING.
AS IF TO ASK
WHAT AM I SEEING?

THOUGHTS AND EYES
FOLLOWED ALONG.
AS IF I JUST MIGHT
DISCOVER WHAT'S WRONG..
   
THEN SUBTLY THE FEW
STARTED MAKING A MOVE.
AS IF THEY ALL,
HAD SOMETHING TO PROVE.

THEY SUGGEST I SUBMIT
DROP TO MY KNEES.
DO AS THEY...
