Best Hectic Poems
As it was
When it is finally done
For this soul and
All the Hectic Hither
When my hands are clinched upon hate
And my restless mind
Stumbles to the cold
With a faultless mischief
Bringing barriers
Floating in the wind
Flying without thought
Tasting the sweet, deep, cold thunders
I laugh even when i cry
I cry even when I laugh
I love even when I hate
My tears no longer moves you
My sad but yet happy face deceive you
As it was
And always will be
The sentiments of one's heart
To Desire.....

Boy we live a hectic life;
For instance, yesterday.
I couldn’t kiss my busy wife
With baby’s backside in the way.
So I left without a kiss,
And sat on the car’s seat,
But luckily I didn’t miss
The slippers on my feet.
After going in the house
To don the right attire.
For my job, though not to douse
The microwave on fire.
My oldest son; a whopping three,
Thought that he could make,
Popcorn for the Christmas tree
With the timer set for steak.
As soon as flames subsided,
The alarms finished beeping.
That’s when at last I sighted
My wife who had been weeping.
She said the dog just ate my toast;
And the two-year-old spilled my tea.
I guess since I was too engrossed
There was nothing left for me.
This time my wife and I locked lips
Except, she wasn’t ready.
Coz in her mouth was a hair clip
As sharp as a machete.
So in the car for one more chance;
Far from the morning’s caper.
But a dryer sheet inside my pants
Would show up a little later.
I think I have a solid hunch
That we’ve lost control.
Coz when I opened up my lunch
It was plopped in the dog’s bowl.

The calendar flies off the wall
Spinning in a flurry of craziness
Agitation brings on palpitations
I’m out of breath and out of time
Going nowhere at the speed of light
Rushing through never slowing down
Days quickly slip away out of sight
Not heeding any of the warning signs
I have little time to nurse the pain
Rushing to put out one fire then another
I have no time to podium a stage
There’s no reward that can sate my hunger
I have no time to shelter from the rain
I belong to the wild and not a cage
It is like I boarded a runaway train
My life is either an escape or a hard chase
My ladder is high with countless rundles
I’m on an endless hunt in the concrete jungle
The city beast is sucking the life right out of me
I need to cut the cord and be set free

The most hectic moment is when you pass by me
And starring with your vulturine eyes giantly,
Undoubtedly, you are the prettiest ugly ever been to me kindly!
Your heart searches me everywhere ,but your ego can find me nowhere,
Your eyes bind me up to the infinity, but still your ego let me go anywhere,
Girl, either you believe me or not you are the most hectic creature ever been to me giantly!!
My eyes once died for you but you never cried for me
My heart once locked you but you never knocked me,
Undoubtedly, you are the prettiest ugly ever been to me kindly!
Girl, either you believe me or not you are the most hectic creature ever been to me giantly!!
My life might be the null ,but it is, for you, always the full,
Your life might be the cool, but it is ,for me, always the hell,
'Cause I believe that life is what you make but not what you tell,
And ,girl!!! you are the prettiest ugly ever been to me kindly!
Either you believe me or not you are the most hectic creature ever been to me giantly!!

I once knew a man who was dyslexic
It really made his whole world hectic
The manner he preferred
Was to write things backward
His poems were poetic eclectic

Hectic day
An eventful day this Saturday
A man is shot to death at Orly airport
clearly out of his mind and France is under
lock down; the hysteria is taking hold
a laptop in a car was stolen it sensitive
information or perhaps not
a man tries to climb the fence at the White House
and there is blood on the carpet
those on duty should have known and not eat
doughnuts when looking at the security screen
dogs and men are prowling the lawn outside
they must be seen doing something
one can say this have been a day of a none –event
and Mosul it is a side show.
At Fox News, long legged girls- with Botox faces- blame
the Chinese, Trump`s pet hate.
The French were not sure who to blame think
the mayhem might have been caused by Iran or
the Germans for taking in too many Syrians.
And over us like Damocles` sword….Trump telling
us all will be fantastic and work for everyone.

two ladies
meeting at the
local coffee shop
catching up
on old times
and new gossip
setting aside
a precious hour
for time
to stand still
chilling out
while carries on
the rest
of the world

Scalding hot
The melting pot
City slickers
With knotted knickers
Traffic jams
Slaughter of lambs
Put up a fight
Speed of light
Amidst the rat race
Within reach a can of mace
Keeping up
Got bumped up
Then retired
Just got too tired

Hectic Than Lethargic
Hillary said that writing her
new book was cathartic like
me writing my poems.
After things had really become hectic,
Learned I looked like I was lethargic;
Been inevitable;
Forgot vegetable;
Writing my poems can be cathartic.
Jim Horn
When Hillary Wore A Pantsuit
When Hillary Wore A Pantsuit
When Hillary was around my heart would pound
Wanted to hear voice having a soft sweet sound
And fell in love as soon as I saw fluttering eyes
Surely within them there would never be no lies.
Saw her fine lips and them so often had tasted
Now not a second in time wanted to be wasted
Always desired presence close and near to me
So what I then did was to marry her instantly.
Time flew by while I wondered where it went
Next thing I knew she had become President
And of all evil I finally found its terrible root
It was when Hillary was wearing a pantsuit.

Life, so hectic, with time we tread,
Against the clock, we race;
Sometimes behind, sometimes ahead,
We struggle to keep pace.
We live in fast forward,
And end up disordered,
Like a puzzle crossword.
So pathetic,
Life, so hectic.

most of everyone
is busy
looking out for
number one
darting here and there
mostly charging thru life
offending without a care
no time to be sensitive
overwhelmed with
things to do
to simply get thru life

Hectic,
mind,
lethargy,
gripping,
in a mind,
all worries,
nagging,
right behind,
I was going,
under this grind,
no solace,
not for second,
to find,
my nerves,
are taut,
like they faught,
my eyes are shot,
like blood pots,
I am boiling,
and coiling,
if I could get,
that moment,
It would stop,
the foment,
I would cool,
and turn to mental wool.

Hectic Mind
Like a weekend
no end
hectic like a busy-business road
up and down
caotic
loaded mind like a full dust bin
hardly unloaded
slow motion
rules the emotion
struggle
hustle
like a mother-bird
food, providing for the little crying kids
busy
is the mind
restlessness dominates
stress rules.
