Best Hot Headed Poems


Premium Member One Wild Lady

St Helens, volatile lady,
Is letting off some steam.
She is seething now with anger.
We know not to what extreme.

I remember the eruption in
The year of ninety-eighty.
That fierce outburst proved her to be
A quite hot-headed lady.

She will not tell what ticked her off.
She gets her satisfaction,
Not from talk or boastfulness.
She articulates with action.

So take your puny instruments
And foolish speculations.
She well may have surprise in store
Beyond all expectations.

Don't tramp on her abundant skirts;
That tends to irritate her.
This lady's incensed enough now,
You're foolish if you bait her.

She's given you fair warning
And if you take her dare
You can't run far enough to get
Her ash out of your hair.

By Joyce

Shall I Compare Thee To Your Mother's ****

Shall I compare thee to your mother's ****?
Thou aren’t more lovely, but more flatulent.
Rough winds do shake it; and bring on a farce
And all her clothes hath all too short a rent

Sometime too hot-headed of hell doth burn,
And often is the true nature exposed;
And every foul from fowl; my stomach churns,
By reason, or by nature's raging closed.

But thy infernal diet shall ne’er start
Nor gain possession of which now I grasp;
Nor shall we meet again; let’s stay apart,
When in eternal sounds the voice does rasp,
So long as men can breathe or eyes can cry,
So long lives this, and I bid thee goodbye.

Police Brutality

Police brutality 
should not be 
ignored, but 
exposed.

Excessive force 
is being used on
innocent civilians 
over petty ****.

Protect And Serve
they pledge, feels 
more like a purge 
instead.

Hot headed cops
above the law, 
breaking the laws 
they sworn to uphold.

Seems more like 
thugs dressed in 
uniforms.

I see them everyday 
on cellphones driving,
parked at fire hydrants
on non emergency...

Going through red lights 
without their sirens on,
with no care for human 
lives at all.

Bullying, patronizing our 
society, causing fear, and 
bloodshed.

When will this nightmare 
end ?

When will police brutality 
come to an end ?

Premium Member Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Meet Tweedle Dum and Tweedle-Dee
Two of a kind they both lived in a tree
Way high up on the upper most branch
Not afraid of heights but why take a chance

I fail to see why they're living up there
They don't have a bed, they don't have a chair
Must be uncomfortable and hard on the bum
Hope they're not bothered by splinters, by gum

These guys are strange, they're nincompoops
They've never liked living in community groups
Independent old souls most all of their lives
Some call 'em snobby, these guys they deride

Society is made up of all different trolls
Some are hot headed with holes in their souls
Some are real happy, like those guys the best
Sure happy I got that stuff off of my chest

Meet Tweedle Dum and old Tweedle-Dee
Two of a kind they both lived in a tree
If you guys want my opinion and advice
Get the hell down here and I won't tell you twice

Dead End Jobs

Dead end jobs, 
We all got those,
The ones that hurt your feet
And the bottom of your souls,
Customers complain ***** and moan,
For items that have been long gone,
Get hot headed when their sizes are not in,
We have to stand and hold in our screams,
Keep our cool, when really we just want to say,
Hey why don't you walk in my shoes If it just for a day,
Just for a while maybe you'll see,
We got more problems then just your sizes,
Come on jump in my shoes, I be happy to do it for you,
To feel a day with no pain,
Maybe to smile truly stunning, then this faked smile, 
So before you moan about all the silly stuff,
Take a look at the staff,
Some are hiding most pain,
In shed of moaning why don't you say,
Hey are you okay.

Corn Dogs and Ice Cream Cones a song

It's rare that most would call me a hot head
I am usually the coolest cucumber instead
I have no tells, so their heads don't swell
and I don't get entangled to soon

But there is this tall lanky guy you see
who plays a mean bluegrass guitar so sweet!
and he's turned me on my head
my tongue lolling out the side, I feel a big oh wet appetite

Its going to be corn dogs yeah baby and ice cream cones
I have to whip up these muscles and work on my tone
He gonna have expectations of meee
and I intend to make him sing oh yeah oh how deee

I do drive like a race car driver I confess
and mr ex officer may have to give me a new test
until he gets over that 
I will have a bit of time to press

But never before would anyone claim I swear
that I was a hot headed daredevil minx
its this tall lanky boy and his talk of being my toy
and I don't ever want it to jinx

It's going to be corn dogs yeah baby and ice cream cones
I have to whip up these muscles and work on my tone
He gonna have expectations of meee
and I intend to make him sing hot diggity!

I wonder how he likes his ice cubes.  jagged or smooth
and how stiff he likes his drinks 
on the rocks or straight shot no lube
And I just await tying him down so we can just work out the kinks

It's going to be corn dogs yeah baby and ice cream cones
I have to whip up these muscles and work on my tone
He gonna have expectations of meee
and a month of head bobbin review with a view

Judgement

Judgement is a funny thing we all do.
It's been fashionable for centuries,
Yet still we scorn those we deem judgmental.
The great Shakespeare practiced in the humours
To entice his vast audience to judge, 
Yet today it's a problem to spread lies; 
To voyeur someone's traits for protection.
Today, someone who values the mellow 
Is prude for excluding the hot-headed;
The knowledgeable, too proud for the clutz.
And so why do we scorn the judgmental 
Yet hold writers to such a high esteem?
For in our writing, we are all critics;
In our writing, we are the judgmental.

                                 read           where
                   In       The   Bible        is written
               Jesus called fisherman,        come
           They were all busy                            fishing
         So  many  different                                   temper a ments
    Peter fast,  quick  to  anger,   and  to                  disappoint  ment
 John  also  hot-headed  called  Boanerges                by Jesus    and
    Bartholomew who had deep thoughts,         trustworthy  Jesus knew
         So  different   were  they,  as  are                          all believers
              But loved     so loved                                          loved  
                      With His agape love as no man can love
                            unconditional love that last forever

My Breaking Point

Hot headed asses
Filled with commie bastards
Social disorder in the brain insane with pain
As if socialized wandering wizards chicken gizzards
My breaking point to no return hero burn
In sweat caged fury everything scarey
Shaded pine in derision chasing after delusion

Fought back the pain with a smile on the dial
To frolic in the whisper almost a certain Hitler
Shadows filled up with asps darkened portals pitch black
Her memory haunts me to this day I pray
Shortness of breath in pitch blackened vest
Let me take the time to get some things off my chest then rest

As if a caged rat that was hiding in its tiny hole death stole
The memory of a whisper pitch black death hero's vest
No time to rest & watch any double feature
***** with the sneakers!
Sadness in the soul portal going viral as it seems
Lethal demise yet one word to the wise
In recourse blackened pilgrims with skulls & crossbones to prey on the dead!

November 6th 2018 Election Day

November 6th 2018 - election day

Later today after
     all votes get cast
post final countdown,
     the winning candidates
     ought to be known
     way before break fast

     nonetheless 
     my fingers and toes crossed,
     that those donned diametrically
     opposed to establishmentarian
     (reed conservative 
     buttoned down
     MAGA stalwarts) deemed
     more dangerous than

     beastie boys, or
     foo fighting, Outkast
sans, these progressive forward
     thinking Democratic activists
     (purportedly threatening
     gerrymandered territory,
     where white Anglo Saxon
     Protestant hegemony dominates

     status quo regarding
     dhow ting Thomas Nast
     tee Donkeys as
     hashtagged by Trump),
     I pray these true
     purring blue state
     representatives clinch,
the majority to oust vast

Republican politicians cowed,
     demeaned, and excoriated
     for NOT fawning 
     prince supple lee,

Premium Member September and My Sister Jan

Our youngest sister thinks that she’s ‘all that’ and a ‘bag of chips with dips to go’.
She’s very popular and thinks that she’s ‘made to order with a heavenly glow’.
When she gets upset, she can be uncomfortable and ‘hot as fire’.
The last of twelve, we all call her Julie, but her real name is July.

Our brother Gus seems always to be in the middle of something,
and doesn’t really know if he’s coming or going.  But don’t push him, because he can be pretty hot headed sometimes.                              He prefers Gus, but his real name is August.

You might not like her, but I would love for you to meet my sister Jan.
Jan is the oldest of the family clan, but her real name is January.
I have always been a bit on the shy side, but there is absolutely
nothing about Jan that is shy.  O, she can be nice ‘s o m e t i m e s’,
but she’s not gentle and  tender like April and me.  No, no, no; Jan can
be cold as ice.

O me?  I’m like 40, leaving 39 behind.
I’m like the little engine who thought he could,
but kept trying until he finally did.
If  I were a day of the week, I would be                                     Wednesday  getting over the hump.
I’m September, entering  a season of anticipation,
with plenty of energy and things to remember.

Concepts I Bleed

I bleed concepts, coldest hearts fail to execute first attempt
Not shaken or slightly discouraged
Explore your choices no need to voice my opinion
Volumes of knowledge bloodied and scarred from the battle
By far a worthy friend
Resilient in the face of oppisition
Convinced i am convicted
I've been a free man ever since it
I see you sense my presence
A heart of a Spartan detected
Suffer sorrow in silence
I enjoy the burden when i can carry it
Despair none, think nothing of it
Storms and pain that you can;t count the amount of
Emotions I master you
Feelings they just make me numb some
Lady's i'm sorry it's not your fault by far girls
fellow survivors, fallen soldiers i salute you
Sighs for their loved ones in their last breath before death and I respect it
Deterred No! not fazed by false friends 
As false as their words are
As far as their heart is from me
No need to show them
I am a Leader, I lead men
destined, chosen to fall and rise higher
Competition I love it, I'll race if you wanna test me
Sweating not one fiery dart, calm in the face of fire
Hot headed...... I'm a straight line once you cross me
forgiving out of respect for another human
As always out of care and concern
And if you try to play me
I'm a black sheep like Willy Mays
I played with the Greatest
Learn from misteps mis-taken
I've survived on seashells don't mistake it
Braced for betrayal, Related to many men of Valor
Persuasive when i got a point to make
Evasive mischievous I know the tricks of the coyote
If the feelings there I'm catching ponies
And before I go out to war I get my Blessing from the Medicine man

Inner Voice

I am numb… 
Can’t you see?
I hate you so much, 
Please set me free…
Things are different now, 
I’m just being me…
I want some peace, 
Within me…

I want some rest, 
Near the sea…
Where I can dip my body
Skinny dipping 
I want thee
To savor the splash 
Through nudity...

Hot headed and hot body
I need the sea to calm me
I want to ease 
These feelings from me
From the painful memory...

Please, please hatred, let me go
Freed me from your woe
I want now to go on
I want another love to last long…

Time Will Tell

Changing and going through the motions
It's a whole lot of emotions filled with impulse really
Trust the process and trust the process I did

Evaporation is the transitioning of liquid particles from a watery state to vapor  without being heated to its boiling point
A being created in God's image, I am only but subjected to natural and societal circumstance so the questions arise

How far am I away from reaching my threshold of heat?
With the burden of abandoned dreams and ventures due to inadequacies
Some in the form of cheques
Some in the form of dissipating spirits

I have slowly been losing my gait
Yes the talent is innate and the livelihood of many is at stake
But how much more  can this ambition to evaporate and turn into a gas in the face of the unbelievers take?
How much long will universe response bluetick my aspirations?

I was hot-headed but the storms and harsh winds of this world extinguished that flame
The surface area of my dreams was stretched from birth and widened by hunger
Hunger for more

Didn't my tears bring humidity enough
To fuel the rate of evaporation thus changing my most vivid illusions to a reality?

Hard at work I was in preparation to comply with all laws
I came and I saw
So then why am I anxiously anticipating, should I be worried my attention compass is beating towards a direction less travelled?

Transitions at hand, responsibilities to be upheld
Should the transition be riddled with procrastination
Do not revert to isolation unless its hybernation purposes only to come back stronger see again and conquer

Trust the process, don't rush the process you are a liquid slowly evaporating into a gas
Evaporate to heights as high and far as wide as possible because upon evaporation another transition process awaits
Evolve

Missile Poised To Strike

Hidden under crop circle
resembling an ampersand
hides sheathed silo - obscured,
said symbol adorned every armband
of national socialist, yet weapons

of mass destruction) bland
lee, blatantly ignored global pact
prepared from this once (bajillion
years ago) geologic bottomland
repurposed for a bomb bin able

(made in good ole US of A) brand
to release payload
upon given command
i.e. at moments notice,
the notorious brigand

usurped entire communications broadband
to stow and let loose by,
thee once upon a time pokey cowhand,
now chief of state tyrant,
sans military industrial complex edifice

where deadly warheads demand
did and trumpeted by "FAKE EVIL"
apprentice madly (ad libbing)
gesticulating, & expostulating to DISBAND
at once - to no effect

falling on deaf ears
as Doomsday Clock rhythmically 
minutely gourmandises
cannibalizing entire webbed
world, whose former slender
(now stubby) baby grand

piano playing butter fingers
primed to press miniature
Taj Mahal shaped hand,...
(now a pause for infowars
commercial identification about Homeland

security threatened by migrant husband
and wife, especially terror unleashed
from baby, whose hood 
loom doth not expand 
much taller than kickstand),

Regular noteworthy poetic program resumes:

...but biological chattering multiplicand
the fiercest most critical operand
linkedin with scheme
asper deadly retaliatory reprimand
against leader of free world,

a hot headed note tory us
donning wig by handmaiden Shetland
knitwear, which Total Mortal Kombat
every man, woman and will soon understand!

KA-BOOM! Into a bajillion 
(to the power of Googleplex)
goes civilization and discontents, 
and since World War II 
accursed with self destructive hex
hmm...mebbe terrestrial for 
another species similar to T-Rex.
