Best Ironic Poems

bowed before you once again
i’m worshipping you 
when i said i wouldn’t 

bent in half
i’m surrendering both my dinner 
and my fears

knelt down before you
my legs tremble 
my hands and chin drip

hunched over you
i am obedient
under your tyrannical rules 

there will be no revolution today...

The left blame the right, the right blame the left,
both concealed in ideology logically lost on me.

It's not that I don't understand, there's no one with which I stand,
both succeed in ways necessary then turn sour though a good recipe.

The point and blame at those...

I'm not quite sure if she is lost or in route
Tornadoes of passion wisp her away
   But inevitably, they cause dispute
The ironic glue that makes her stay

   Excited, confident, proud and ashamed
A soup of emotions, each extreme
   A recipe...

The Ironic Love Affair

How small and insignificant
Our ship appears to be
When brought into perspective
By the vast expanse of sea

And yet she cradles five score men
Who, for half a year
Peer from her side, devoid of pride,
With a grimace - if not a sneer.

A voluntary splitting of...

President Donald Trump's ironic speeches, 
When President Donald Trump was portraying some hidden agendas of some African countries publicly. 
Some old Africans leaders thought of provocations
 and insults but the young Africans leaders 
welcomed all his ironic speeches
about Africa on the  face of the World.
Many...

Don't you find it ironic?
Isn't it ironic?

As time progresses,
   this baby boomer generation
   has been exposed to radio, newspapers, magazines.
Each media touched our minds and ears early on
   with it came inspiration and emotion
   as the world...

For life,
Irony shows its ugly face
a pale blemish on the fabric of life
what goes around comes around
I heard it said, hell...I've said it
All things have a purpose, a reason
what's the season 
do you have the time
catch you on the fly
damn time is hard to catch
it...

Ironic Twist
Ironic twist 
Reflected in the tryst
Woman of bliss
Gazed with a secret kiss

Silent mysteries uncovered
With each minute discovered
Our heartbeats traveled

Like volcanic fire
The universe  gladly admired

Her!

She awakened silently
My search for divinity

In the shadows there's whispering,  someone is listening
To every word, that you say about them now.
Secrets you shared when really, no one else cared,
Things you said, when you thought you, were alone.
Are now nightmares playing out loud in your head.
Your pretty little clothes &...

Only if I allow you-how to find the answer
we must enter a trance first. 
Run backwards in circles and sing that one song and dance.
That they speak of through speakers that pierce through virgin ears.
You are sure you know who you personally refer to as...

hard against the wall
the seat of death finally rests
in ironic drape, ropes hang
wicker basket waits
a twist, a turn, beheaded
mans inhumanity dealt...

Interesting to realize…
 Resolution of the matter of suicide
  Only requires a few pills,
   Nonchalantly handed out by
    Indiscriminate Doctors, treating me for depression
     Completely oblivious of my intentions

But I did tell them…...

Fear has become the only emotion.
Several attempts, striving so diligently.

Never seemed to matter,
destined to be defeated.
Difficulty becoming that of which is well deserved.

Never seemed to matter, just didnt end up that way.
Somewhat unfortunate,
Although apprectiation seeps in,
true fortune of self dignity.

Shame not rendered,
Pride not blinding,
Openness quite...

Blind who thinks to see
What do you want? 
When I show you love in my  right hand 
And showing the truth in my left hand 
You lose trust in me, 
Thinking of many wrong things about me, 
Because you hate to hear the  truth. 

Blind...

Somber; Mist outside.
It falls with quiet beauty.
Unforeseen Comfort....
