Best Ignoring Poems

She loves to
ignore me.
Does she love me?
Yes I believe so, our love
is imperfect -like most, predicated on
imbalance, a victim of
poor timing, but living the old
lie of immortality…..is it really
an untruth?  Is it mortal?
Will it one day die?  I pray not.
At the end of...

Wouldn’t it be odd if she didn’t believe, 
And ignored the truth that occurred,
Denied all the proof of what other folks saw, 
Denied what other folks heard,

Ignoring the transcripts, not wanting to know, 
Not asking the folks who were there,
Not digging a bit deeper and...

Of antiquity's Gods I know little, 
And yet somehow feel fit as a fiddle, 
God of poems and plague
(Though connection's quite vague!) , 
But real life seems to rest in the middle.

I'm ignoring the drum major
Or at least I wished I was,
since she can be very loud,
and I'm fingering my Shako,
you can pet him if you want,
he won't bite, I promise,
and my Dinkles have a rock in each heel.
I want to bend over and take it...

Time is ticking by faster

And the clock hangs off the edge

But my mind doesn't move as quickly

It's blocked by a deadened hedge

You say that time is precious

And I believe it all too well

I wish I could make things more certain

But some things God will never...

Upper class clowns and socialists
always whining from their crystal palaces. 
Fine dining ...greasy lipped pimps
Lecturing the working man, on global warming,
who just topped off their private ride
with ozone poking jet fuel piss-

Upper class clowns and socialists, 
always cawing about American gluttony
the distribution of wealth.
While wearing...

Ignoring another human being can be seen as downright insulting,
but it's considered the highest form of respect within the animal kingdom....

Many politicians vociferously lie
Many politicians either hide or omit the truth
Many times, I sit down quietly in a booth
Enjoying a glass of chocolate mousse
And drinking orange juice
Serenely to listen and analyze many lawmakers’ words
I laugh like crazy, because they invent many worlds
And mess up like...

All alone in the middle of a crowd
and I like it 
Because no one here can control the way I feel 

I just tune them out - 
and go about — 
living  life -
which ever way I will

No emotion or thought that I owe...

I shall not be moved to respond
When hurts are hurled about,
‘Tis best not to waste my time
Or even raging, in anger shout,
For I shall hold my tongue, you see
And think of lovely things.
Best not to wallow in another’s slime
The happy heart always sings,
An unruly word...

In Thy name they slaughter, my Lord, knowing not that Thou art is love!*

*Just for today, I come out of my cocoon, to mourn Brussels' victims AND
to wish you all: HAPPY EASTER!...

Mum and Dad
In a world of their own
Not thinking of the consequences,
that could force us to go
Mums mind is set
She's telling dad to get
But deep down I know
That will never happen, I bet
Dad raises his fist's
Mum crumbles to the floor
She begs him to stop
But to...

Everyone around me seems to pass me 
By with out a good morning good evening 
Goodbye one ignores me when her friends 
Are here the other one ditches me and 
Fallows them around no wonder why i'm 
Left to drowned i'm sick of being treated...

Why would you waste my time
My effort poured on you
I give you all my energy,
But you dont follow through
You stop sending me messages,
leaving me without a clue 
How am I supposed to know
That your feelings are not true


I like you more then a friend 
But...

I JUST THINK YOUR IN DENIAL AND WITH NO PLACE TO GO--

You say you love me but your won’t look at me;
You say you care for my well being, yet I never see;
You come by my residence, at church you’re ever so distance;
Your one praise...
