Best Foot The Bill Poems


Self Aware
The most troubling moment
Is when we see our selves clear
We must salvage and own it
We must battle the fear

Flaws come in sight
Jaws of the night
They are even more clear
When you turn on the light

They won’t disappear 
Like our childhood fears
Irrational terrors 
From our younger years

One of Life’s indisputable facts:
Government reserves the right to tax;
And tho’ they waste far more than they should,
It’s supposedly done “for the common good.”

Economists use the word “propensity,”
Just a fancy word for “odds”, you see:
The odds you’ll save, the odds you’ll spend,
And how many Tax...

What Are Mother's Made Of
In my eyes, a Mother begins nurturing you before you're even born.
Most times she does this with happiness - no time to be forlorn.
She trades in her slender figure - loving you above all else from the very start.
The beginning of her sacrifices - you're...

I'Ll Gladly Pay You Tuesday
I am stuffed up to my gills,
Stomach sated fully filled
Plates licked clean, my palate's dream-
Do you mind to pay the bill?

*Let me ask y'all something: would the last line be better if it read "Would you mind to foot the bill"? Someone let me know!...

The All-American Ladies Choice
You know she missed her period and she missed graduation,
And she missed those wedding bells.
And her daddy’s shot-gun missed the boy next door—
Where he’s gone nobody can tell.
It’s a simple operation—her sister recommends it—
Her daddy’s going to foot the bill,
It’s the All-American Ladies Choice…
It’s a...

Very Anti London 2012 the Time For Non Violent Civil Disobedience
The eyes of the world shall soon fall on britain
Pants of politicians and military men must be shitting
That's what happens when you spend 300+ years
Stealing from the rest of the world, selling imaginary fears
The most expensive advertising campaign will soon commence
Better evict the 99% from...

Call It a Day
Some where between the men and the mouse
I thought we had figured all this out
Maybe I could have saved myself from this pain
But maybe again I would have done it all the same

Somehow I lost you over that hill
While your off living I had to...

Children of Their Father

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts
of your father ye will do. He was a murderer
from the beginning, and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him. When he 
speaketh a lie, he speaketh to his own: for he
is...

Beat It My Brother
Guess who is back

Re-writing historys slack

I keep to myself like the whiteman does to rap

Close your eyes and sleep

No longer are you the black sheep

Smile nice and wide like you won the California Lottery

For only then you will see

You had more friends than you need

As...

Premium Member I'm Tired Of Taylor Swift
I am tired of Taylor Swift,
Her face I can not avoid.
 I know you gals get my drift.
I love her, but am annoyed.

 She has all those Swifty fans.
Isn't that enough for her?
 All she does is sing and dance,
and is known throughout this
earth.

 Her...

I've never had a one-night stand,
with me it always was the family plan;
I thought I found Mr. Right 
seems I only saw him with blind eyes.

Faithful till the day I die
Yet he has a wandering eye
Pay for things he never does
Wonder why I bear...
