Best Hogging Poems


Premium Member Loud Grunting

(Innuendo -- Pigs)

All around are sticks and stone
Feel God's loving arms around you
-----At last, I am redeemed-----

A feast of my soul, you shall receive
A cake for dinner, I made out of stones
Ratchet pigs fill their dirty mouths, 
Consuming my soul, sipping on champagne

At peace with myself, brushing off the walls
Nevertheless, tonight they speak in tongues
-I strain my ears to listen;
While pettitoes approach my page
I hear the squeals, I hear the chit chat
from he/she that wears no shame.
Am I she, the evil one?
The one you penned -
Under the influence of manipulation
Trying to stifle my voice of beauty
No matter, I am crazy, a dreamer
Never claim to be THE INNOCENT, 
The Poet Destroyer!!! 

I ignore the walls when they speak
Nevertheless, tonight they have eyes
They watch my every move
A trotters dance, of togetherness
Forgetting the reason we are here
I will win and conquer my privacy

You can't destroy what you can't see
I am the glory of my day
I am God's pet!!!
A Lamb, wearing white
To others a wolf in disguise
Spitting slithers, swear 
I am the Devil's Advocate
I marvel how they snort at night
Today I will crash the sore whispering party
You! My friend, no longer exist
You are naught more than cobwebs
You will dream about me, write about me
I will give you ammo, then read it from you.
I will show you what a demon is!
Like the light and envy of every moon
I shall ask my reflection and remove
the residue from hogging lips.

I will watch you urbane the truth
The heat and lust I conquer from you
A font with no reflection, dating apples
Heading away from its own advice
A hard task from its quill, enjoying leftovers
Pinpointing fingers among shallow dreams
It's sickening to see pigs pat each others back
Feeding on my demonic words
Convoying innuendos in my bearing
Now it's my turn, to turn the roaster on

With no interest in removing muddy sheets
I shall smile and walk away
In - joy - my heart beats and smiles
Knowing, I made you look  --- AGAIN!!!

Of Rats and Mice

I am in my house,
With a panicked mouse.
Coming back from the fridge
Going through the sand-ridge
Into its hole in a jiffy
Then squeaking out - Yippee !

Then come two rats
With a hard pat on the back
Running along with its mate
Making things obfuscate
Around the bagful of nickels
Crossing the jar full of pickles

The rat and its mate came back trotting
With a block of cheese that was rotting
After some time in a line
Came a parade f rats and mice
With and hats and lice.

Everyone was mournful
But a mouse eating a mouthful
Who was happy and glad
Was making everyone sad.

He ate with nosh
Wearing a hat that was posh
After hogging and stuffing
He got up puffing,
Ready for his quest
Sqeaking good bye to the rest,
He leaped across a runnel
And ran into a thicket
Never to be spotted again.

My Wallet

My wallet has credit cards
And my I.D.
(My license to drive
With a picture of me.)

My library card and
My store discount stash
Share limited space with
My limited cash.

Insurance I.D.'s,
Safety pins and receipts
Nestle next to my photos,
Such room-hogging treats.

Appointment reminders,
My pass for the Zoo
Stretch the leather along with
My Garden pass, too.

Add a band-aid and stamps 
And a bunch of loose change;
When I take out my wallet,
Folks look at me strange.

I bought a small pocketbook - 
Thought I would try it -
But first off, my wallet
Must go on a diet!


Premium Member Daydreams

My childhood daydreams much like any boy's,
to be an astronaut or fly a jet
enact their daring exploits with my toys
dreaming a life like people I'd not met.
Holding a tennis racket at chest height
before a mirror, swaying at the hips
imaginary rock star, hogging the limelight
the latest chart songs streaming from my lips.
But age brings less desire, more thankfulness
for all, no matter how little, I've got
when so many around have so much less,
thank God for who I am, and what I'm not.
The years unfold, those daydreams left behind
just daytime TV for the human mind.

Confessions of a Poetrysouper

Forgive me PS for I have sinned,
I’ve posted a poem I ought to have binned,
I have read many poems without leaving a word,
And wonder why my opinion’s unheard,
The odd shameless plug is not beyond me,
(My e-book’s on Amazon if you’d like to see!)
I’ve spent too many hours creating a poem,
When there’s plenty of housework waiting at home,
Not to mention my hogging of all the broadband,
It’s not fair on my man, he pays for it and,
He deserves his far share that’s clear to see,
So I’m asking PS would you please forgive me?

What Is the Altetnative

Life as we know it makes no sense if we have no choice 
So what is the alternative and do we have a voice ?

The world is spinning out of control with violence and death all around 
And the Republican presidential candidate is a racist media hogging clown
Everything is off kilter and while I sit and contemplate 
What is my alternative and what will be my fate?
How do I sing songs of joy when chaos is on the rise? 
How do I survive a Babylonian society and keep my eyes on God's prize? 
In the midst of perversity and immoral behavior 
My only alternative is to stay  connected to Jesus my Savior 

When I see a white man kill nine African Americans in a church
And after arrested given a bullet proof vest
Yet when an ex-military black man kills five white cops 
He's blown up I feel such unrest 
Over the injustice and the inequality that is occurring every day 
Over 123 black men killed this year what more is there to say 

What is the alternative?  What is it that we need to do? 
What is the alternative? As a nation we need to seek truth 
I don't condone Mr. Johnson's behavior 
but I understand where he's coming from 
Too many young unarmed black brothers 
Killed by white police guns

So what is the alternative? 
What as a nation do we realize? 
That racism is alive and well and killing blacks is on the rise 
What is the alternative? 
How do we bring about true change? 
It's time for white Americans to stop acting like we're deranged 
We are Americans too my people have been here over 400 years 
Yes we were once slaves but let me make this clear
We are no longer your property 
We are no longer your chattel 
Stop killing and slaughtering my people 
Like they're mindless cattle 

So what is the alternative? 
It's time we all develop a true relationship with God 
And hopefully be infused with a Christlike love
And true compassion in out hearts 

THAT IS THE ALTERNATIVE


Fishing

I’m an All-Star at bottling emotions,
I run around my court dribbling emotions
onto paper. Ball hogging my sensitivities,
no one has ever been able to catch me..
I’m too damn quick.
I’ve sent every nerve that has threatened 
to expose itself deep into a dark hole.
Hammered a cross at it’s base labeled 
"Eyes only."
The most technical term I could muster.
Most people steer clear of technicalities. 
I’m suddenly thinking about Boyle’s law.
I feel like a hooked fish,
being reeled up from deep waters
and I can picture the rushing current 
of self doubt passing over me
while you bring me ashore.
I can see your reaction
to my insides protruding
out of my mouth like that
Bass I caught in Conroe.
I just hope you can stand the image.
I’ve never felt a pull so strong.

Soldier Speak

I found a bit of poetry
tacked up on a door
while wandering through the halls
of the latest-greatest war

So I scootchied up my dungarees,
and with squinty eyes I read,
“If you can read this poetry
 you are likely dead.

Because there is no door here,
nothing written on a gate,
the poem which you are looking at
is nothing but your fate.

‘Cause the hogging hungry war machine
run by grinchy greedy men
has an appetite for carnage,
which seems to have no end.

Chaos is it’s business,
making bucks for those,
who’ve no regard for living things.
That’s the way it goes.

By turning life to death
(the basics of their plan)
they pad their purse and pockets
just because they can.”

I thought I thought a thought
(or, I guess, I thought I did),
 “Before the latest-greatest war,
I surely wish I’d hid.”

I learned skills for making kills,
but two things I abhor:
those kills which give folks thrills
and the latest-greatest war.

Premium Member Jealousy Jade

There's nothing worse than hogging the scene
It's even sadder that they have to be mean
     To be seen and not heard
     Is the truest of words
It's even worse when they turn a dull green

Lost In Confusion

Lost in confusion


A scar time will never heal,
A scar dangling in the hands of fate,
Take a glance at all four corners of the earth,
Some are filled with boundless joy at someone’s birth,
Yet some are grieving over someone’s death,
Some are drowning in the murky waters of starvation,
Yet some are winning and dinning in ululation,
I am lost in confusion.

Few woke up to a fancy bubble bath,
Millions to a bath at a local river,
Some countries are in the middle of bloody wars,
Whilst some are concluding peace treaties,
Some lovers are making up.
Yet some are breaking up,
Someone is trapped in the misery of tribulation,
Someone in the loneliness of isolation,
Yet someone is hogging the limelight
Cloistered in the world of fame

Some people are harmful, some helpful,
Some chose the ballot, some the bullet,
People love without reason, without reason they hate,
The heart that hurts beats the scar,
The scar of the mystery of life
The secret is to persevere,
To be better today than you were yesterday,
It’s better to die great than live grieving,
So I’ve been told and so I believe.

Premium Member For the Birds

There once was a land
they called Beautiful Tree
the best of the lands
where the birds want to be

Then, there were only
the Cards and the Jays
no other birds had yet 
flown in to stay

Nesting in groups
with a thickness of thieves
the flocks ever growing 
outnumbered the leaves

Soon there was pecking
each with their order
defending their branches
defining their borders

Then one day the Cards
took control of the place
changing the rules 
at a blistering pace

The Jay's were disheartened
and flustered, they flittered
their soaring blue skies
ever darkened with twitter 

The Jays still believed
they could all live as one
but if ever to be 
something had to be done

Yet try as they may
and with all of their might
the Jays gentle spirits
weren't up to the fight

Watching the Cards
taking care of their own
hogging the tree
with their true colors shown

Consumed by their greed
and driven by pride
hoarding resources 
as new fledglings died

With no other enemies 
left to declare 
they turned on each other
defiant to share

The Jays knew the secret
for them to survive
was joining together
so all birds could thrive

The Cards stacked the deck
to their utter demise
as the powerful peeps
of the Jays would arise

Singing so sweetly
in harmonic rhyme 
even the Cards
were found singing in time

Soon to return 
to their Beautiful Tree
ready to cleanup
the mess there would be

Once again living
a life less absurd
Isn't this Beautiful Tree
for the birds?

            -Jeannie Minor

Missing You Grandpa Johnny

Missing you Grandpa, all of us do
looking at grandma and how much she loved you
since you been gone ,our lives has truly changed
want to pick the phone and call ,but you are no where in range

Missing you Grandpa, its hard to explain
wishing you were here just to laugh with you again
Since you been gone no ones caught a bumble bee 
and didnt get stung.No ones fixed a butterfly wing by the 
flick of a thumb. No one cutt trees and been in your shed
no ones sharpened pincels , so sharp that were low on led.
No one fixed things that was about to be trash
no ones fixed them up so that they would last.

Missing you Grandpa , really we do
your in our hearts and without you it hard to get
through. I miss your smile and your jokes,your food 
and your songs. When we were sad you made sure nothing was wrong.

Missing you grandpa,and you watching the Cubs play baseball
hogging the t.v with news and sports , the trips we took those times to New York.
I miss you grandpa and all that you where ,without you Grandpa our hearts will remain sore
You see we love you so much and just cant let you go and miss you so much its hard to 
control.In your memory we try to push on, but still cant forget the 
fact that your gone. 

Missing you grandpa,and forever we will
Thankyou so much for making each and everyone of us a Hill.

Kings and Queens

I know that is my special day,
But I’m writing this just to say,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
For all you’ve done from the start.
You make my life ten times better,
I hope you know this from my letters.
My birthday is not the same without you.
I miss all the little things you do.
Like waking up and squeezing me,
Making sure yours' the first face I see
Today I miss you just a little more,
Even the bed hogging and your snore.
I cannot wait to have it all back,
Not sure how much longer I can hack
Without you here right by my side.
When you left a part of me died.
200 days and counting down
Until you come and replace my crown.
Return to your Queen on May the 8th,
My King, please come and restore my faith.

Stoners

Stop hogging
The joint, you are not the
Only stoner in this room
Newbies! Newbies!
Ever so selfish!
Roll me a fatty newbie
So I can watch this movie

Isaacs Revelation

Arise young man
for you're sat in my chair
it's a black and tan fact that I always sit there.
My body's effete
I envisage a pause
insipid responses are'nt helping the cause.
Disrupting proceedings
congesting the room
I shall rain on your head a disparaging tune.
Who gave you admission
who gave you the ball
you pitch in Zimbabwe, Yemen or Nepal.
You're dropping your drivel all over the place
I'm brewing a mixture to foetor your space.
Contemptuous derision of cultured advice
and cute disrespect of our country's entice.
You hustlers got rhythm
you hustlers got stance
us shufflers are hoofing the Floral Dance.
I'm standing...you're sitting amazing the court
reciting us Shakespeare and Pinter and Holt.
You're devouring my dinner
then guzzling my tea
the resident kookies are cracking with glee.
Are they your wheels hogging the hub of my drive?
that's it mate....you're finished....I'll skin you alive.
This bale revelation has made me uptight
to retrieve my location I'll hammer all night.
........Get up I say
that's my bloody chair
it's a black and tan fact.....that I always sit there.
