Best Greedier Poems


X marks the spot



Monstrously Machievellian

Demonic pedagogic

Ominously Orwellian

Demagogic logic 

Fools’ Musk-ovite mules

Zuckerberg zeitgeist heist

Dickensian dystopia rules

Google last post bugle 

Fossil fuels myopia drools

Bellicose Bezos blows

Bro-ligarchy mates’ malarkey

Unions demonstrate

Amazon defenestrate 

Hades Gates hierarchy

In the dock

Murdoch foxy skulduggery

Poxy TikTok runs amok

Crass puns..shock thuggery

This lot don't give a jot
.
Bitter sh**ter Twitter

The Miller's Daughter
A tale of greed, power, 
deception, discrimination and 
love. 

Miller, daughter, king—
All the actors are present
Except the small man. 

The king summons the miller 
for some reason. Summons a 
humble working man. 

Miller, shaken, scared, 
Pleases king, saying daughter
Spins straw into gold. 

The king, a...

The Cry of Hosanna
His message to Mankind was divine love, much louder than 
the desert wind hissing through the tall palm trees;
they heard Him, but sadly contempt built up when
they defiled the Temple by selling and trading instead of praying on their knees...
so Jesus got the whip and...

Best Things
All the best things in life are free.
Yes, money does make your life easier
But not much happier, you see?
So no sense in becoming greedier.

Saving up for the future's good.
Stashing some from every paycheck aside
As long as there's enough for food.
Those are cruel rules you chose...

Loki's Lament and Curse Part 1 By Thomas Laufey
loki:
For nine nights only your own will had bound you
to the World ´s Tree, you treacherous God,
while I wore a chain that I chose not, forever:
With cruel fetter my freedom you took!"

Odin:
"Too cunning and unpredictable you were, too wild to roam free:
Greater your strength and...

John Moore
1843-1933

I was born with my lungs full of tarnation.
Leastways that was my mother’s version of it.
I do not believe anyone who was ever born, 
Came Into this world kicking,
Leastways not like me;
I tumbled in, kicking like some drifting no account sodbuster,
Ready for the new...

Orwellian Nightmare
Is the world shrinking into an Orwellian nightmare
Where we are controlled and no longer dare
To be different from others in this world
With what the Internet and Facebook says is what is held

And leaders who look to control us to take over this media
With Presidents taking...

There Are Men Who Believe In Nothing
There are men who believe in nothing,
who rely on their human strength
to accomplish greatness and image
to give realization to their ambitions,
while God is left out of their existence!

The deeper they dig the hard soil to find
treasures, the greedier they become;
their purpose in living is worthless,
they...

Adventured Servitude
IN VENTURED SERVITUDE

Faster and faster 
it became my master
Quicker and quicker 
I became sicker
I blazed a trail to the dark side of tomorrow
Then laid a highway to a city they call “sorrow”
More and more 
I needed to score
And too oft the pickings were far too...

A Contemporary Complaint for Consideration
Annotations of mis-co-ordinations of the latest military drone strike 
The fear when the children of Ukraine hear bomb raid sirens into the night 
What’s near when all that you can contain is silenced by your fright 
A seer blind in the conventional way and devoid...

Billionaires hunker down in their Queenstown bunker lairs
Let’s pester Uncle Fester

After dafter Luxon 

Pushed the button

Welcomed every glutton

To the isles of mutton


Theme of the meme

It does seem

No longer a

Stronger eclectic sceptic


Spanked by the rank 

Septic tank stream

Peptic Pyramid scheme

Saffa Jaffas spill like Seville

If you don’t play the big three

There’s no way

You should be seen

In the final of the WTC


That’s what’s been heard

Mean baggie greens

Have a word

Indians chagrin din

Simply absurd


Stokes bespoke blokes

Don’t give a monkeys

Run rates slate.. hate

Not WTC junkies


Ignore the pundits in their pulpits

Cryptic critics..cynics clinics

To ensure the sh*t hit the fan

Ask the leaves

On a morning like this, lethargic and indifferent,
It is so easy to make me rich,
When the pain is moving slowly and smoothly, and
I hold on to you, like a monkey,
               ...
