Best Flaws Poems


Flaws

Noise chattering among us..
Whether outside
Whether inside..
It matters not..

Thoughts provoke frequently..
Undesirable..
Desirable..
Head is filled with noise pollution..
Days and nights..
Moment to moment..

Our flaws a constant reminder..
If only..
Why..
Thoughts haunting us..

Silence awaits..
Golden..
Pure..
Smooth and still..
Fragments of noise dissolved..
Peace had risen..

In stillness of the moment..

Flaws accepted..
As one loves thyself..
Your greatest flaws become your own perfection..

Musee

See where it burns in Titian's brush
subsides along the cool Aegean stone,
or twists in the fist-faces of Rome,
our only mystery--flesh.

There, uncertainty ends, or does it merely pause?
The surgeon's knife reveals a shadow
no surface contains, our laws
are not what we do or vow.

Yet surface is all, and scars--
the scuttled pains that heal.
Observe how memory collects in flaws
placed where they are most real.

Or how, as flowers, the persistent leaf
bears the color of its grief.

Premium Member Time's Timeless Flaws

Time does not celebrate
Nor sunrise play kazoo
The folly of the “New Year”
Belongs to me and you

The orbiting of Jupiter
The gleaming Milky Way
Know that being where you are
Don’t mean that’s where you’ll stay

For geese will cut the sky with V’s
And bears retreat to slumber
While we are left to pondering
The days we try to number

For time is but a monitor
Of movements without cause
And we the counters of the days
Enshrine time’s timeless flaws

Flaws

I sleep like a prisoner, in my own dreams.
I wake up to the flaws of reality.
I meditate to this world I hate.
I live a life no one will ever appreciate.
Everything changed since the day I took my first step.
Flaws in the pride I demonstrate.
Flaws is the only way we relate.

Flaws found in every open door.
My tears fall into the flaws of the cracked  floor.
Flaws grow deeper when feelings are involved.
Watching the world as we flawlessly destroy it.
Accepting bad perception that nothing is forever.
Injecting chemicals that flow through my brain.
Spreading negative flaws that swim in my vain.
Love is a flaw that drives one insane.
Hate is the medicine that covers up pain.
Flaws! Flaws can only be covered up like a stain.

Flaws! Flaws!
Under Gods eyes.
Flaws! Flaws!
No need to cry.
Flaws! Flaws! 
Mistakes and goodbyes.
Flaws! Flaws!
Lived out till the day we die

His Flaws

Where his loyalties lay is not with me
therefore I think he’s untrustworthy,
Strong feeling of support absent 
from a bond that was well meant…

Though that’s OK ‘cause I don’t trust anyone anyway.

Compromise he was not taught
empathy is near to naught,
No middle ground, no give or take
agreeance on he does forsake…

Though that’s OK ‘cause I don’t depend on anyone anyway.

Egotistic, boastful, vain
selfish for to only gain,
Don’t understand what's in his brain
though comprehend he won’t explain…

Though that’s OK ‘cause I love myself anyway.

To shed some light upon his flaws
know the kind and the cause…
To learn from him and awaken
much of him I have mistaken...

Though that's OK 'cause I'm only human anyway.

Premium Member Undone Hidden Flaws

.
There once was a garden in Thomaston
But all the hidden flaws show now in sun
     Bombarded by winter cold
     Delicate Easter dress bold
Became frozen, tattered, falling undone

Now that lovely garden in Thomaston
Back in early spring's golden rays of sun
      Rose blooms, tulips open tips
      Flawless are flowers no thrips
Remember Rose Trellis_ love's embrace spun


Premium Member Flaws and Flawless, Froggy and the Prince

(Froggy)
His  big crooked smile; the bump on his nose;
His extra large feet with short stubby toes.

Eyes sort of popping beneath eyebrows bushy;
A spare tire middle with such a small tushy!

His loud guitar music; his funny guffaw;
His love poems so cheesy that fill her with awe;

His spending too much to save any money
Because he likes always pleasing his honey.

More froggy than prince, and odder than odd,
But that’s what she loves; he’s perfectly flawed.

(The Prince)
His brilliant white teeth; the cleft in his chin;
The beautiful body; the unblemished skin.

His elegant style; his baby blue eyes,
Manicured nails, costly suits and nice ties.

His house and his Benz; his deep golden tan:
All proof he’s a go-getting clever young man.

The many smart things to the right people said;
His time at the office so he’ll get ahead.

So seemingly flawless he just can’t see why
His girlfriend ran off with that flawed froggy guy!

Fulla Flaws

Floyd was a fellow full of flaws,
Who flipped for females without cause,
They thought he was cute,
As long as he stayed mute,
But then he’d start jacking his jaws.

And if the lady had any doubt,
What his intentions were about,
Her doubts would soon be gone,
Cause when Floyd was turned on,
His false teeth would always fall out.

Premium Member Flaws Vs Flawless

It’s amazing what is seen as nice
clear skin with a soul stark as ice.
Long legs with a crotch
and out she will trot
at the end of his arm, once or twice.

Sweet hearts are all hidden it seems
men want only a tart for their dreams.
A crooked smile to beguile, 
a tiny mind infantile
and Boozoo’s coming apart at the seams.

When kindness is seen as a bore
All you’ll find is flaw after flaw
Then your just desserts
Will come in short skirts
While your wife gets the house and much more!

Overcoming Flaws

OVERCOMING FLAWS

I heard laughter in a distance and wondered why this annoyed me.  Then I realized that what they laughed about was what did not define humor.  Therefore, who laughed twisted their senses.

This morning, as each, I awoke with a mood swing.  Things were going as they should from what had previously occurred.  Let me explain.  I go through this twilight form.  I am zone via income.  You may go ridiculous but this is done via the government.  Quite an annoyance...

What annoy are mediums that are formed from corruption.

In a storyteller form, I developed the imagination.  To implement, I tell a tall tale through the lens of non-fiction.  However, true accounts are hidden within the excitement.  The tale goes, once upon a time, in the world of expression, lived a woman who was quite annoyed.  If you spoke to her, she became annoyed.  When you smile at her, you found that she was annoyed.  This would annoy you; therefore, I begin to not speak to Maxine or smile at Maxine.  Maxine had Graves’ disease, which caused bulging eyes.  She was a refined woman but wanted you to see her otherwise.  What annoys is that she made it seem as if you caused this negativity in her life.

Aggravation makes an annoying situation.

When your life is not as you want, whom do you blame?  What annoys me the most when you blame me and I do not have any means to cause you any pessimism.  Provocation of such states you have not done what you should.  You are liable to you own self-identity, self-worth, and self-esteem.  Do not accuse me.

Inasmuch, this is what annoys me!

Ants With Flaws - Flawless Spray

Flaws

The bugspray was very reliant.
It covered the ants all compliant.
   They nested all day
   then came out to play.
Mutations had turned them to giants.

Flawless

It turns out the spray was not lethal.
The ants drank it all and were gleeful.
   They danced and they played.
   And most of them stayed,
where they could be sure of a refill!!!

Premium Member My Flaws Indeed Vs My Flawless Breed

My Flaws Indeed

My nose is too flat, I have a double chin
I am not sure when face wrinkles started to win

My hair is curly, sometimes a frizzy mess
A hand -held blow dryer is some days useless

One leg is too short from a knee alternate
It takes a great effort to walk really straight                    

I have high arches, I cannot wear high heels
Nor can I wear a dress, without curve appeals

Cancer diagnosis left me, half a whole
Why could it not have been my largest black mole

I could go on and confess all of my flaws
What the heck, I drew the shortest of the straws

--------------------------------------------------------------

My Flawless Breed

My smile is genuine, still have all my teeth
To my family, genes I hope to bequeath

My hearing is still good for all that it is worth
But it was much better, at my precious birth

My eyes see very well since I had R K
Once saw a foot, now I see a mile away

A sense of humor I do have plenty of
I plan on sharing, with all the ones I love

My heart is big enough to catch love to hold
And strong enough until I get extremely old

My talents are many just to name a few
Most of all I treasure everything I do

FLAWS

Seems to me this nation would have less flaws

   If we could purge millions of inane laws

      Made by congresspersons

        Alas, it only worsens

           'Tis enough to tighten this feller's jaws

FLAWLESS

Though Wyatt Earp's modus operandi was far from flawless

   He knew how to administer justice to the lawless

He faced some rowdy cowboys in a godforsaken locale

   Leavin' 'em sprawlin' in the dust at the OK Corral

Flawless Crap-Flaws Forgiven

#1 Limerick

Flawless Crap

There once was a man that was perfect.
His actions were never incorrect.
That was his thought, for sure.
He knows now that’s manure.
As he looks at compost truck, he wrecked.


#2 couplets

Flaws Forgiven

Everyone makes mistakes, this we all know for sure.
There was only one perfect man, who was so pure.
Imperfections are truly human traits, simple and plain.
We all need to face this, so we all can truly gain.
That our shortcomings define us, as we all learn,
To teach us reality and justice, upon our return,
Errors and faults are to be forgiven from us all.
Listen within, or you know not what may befall.

Premium Member Oblivious To Our Flaws

We're feeling thoroughly swamped by
waves and waves of smiling faces.
And as the crowd breaks into cheers,
we proudly mark our paces.

With arms extended and knees bent,
facing forward, we barely blink.
And left-right-left-right-left, our boots
strike the pavement in perfect sync.  

Left-left, left-right-left, drums the beat,
pulling our invisible strings.
And as friendly faces flash by,
we strut as if our feet had wings.

Precision moves, receive a roar,
of instant jubilant applause.
And we're feeling so empowered, 
we're oblivious to our flaws.
