Best Issues Poems
Retirement Due To Health IssuesThe dear old pastor had occupied the same pulpit for years and years;
He preached fire, damnation and The Hereafter scorching his congregants ears!
He had baptized hordes of kids and officiated when they married,
And comforted many mourning souls when their loved-ones were buried!
He suffered through stormy...

Clingy With Trust IssuesI am a girl who is a little clingy
I will accept it
I am because of people who have left before
I don't want to lose anyone else
So I hold on for dear life to make sure they are happy
But it comes off as me being needy
I...

Obsession IssuesObsession Issues
Obsession in Yukon
Obsession in The Bronx
Even got obsession from
Mr. Flaunt what he wants
All these obsession issues
Don’t got time on my mind
So I’m throwin them tissues
Yukon likes number six
so I told him he’s buggin'
runnin' far away from this
The Bronx wants my time
but I told him...

Lyric
Ego IssuesAfraid of her shadow
Scared by her voice
Unsure where she'll go
If burdened with choice
She danced to the beat
Of the most fickle drum
Shifting her feet
Biting her tongue
A rebellious disciple
Imagination too grand
A reluctant rival
Avoiding the stand
Haunted by mistakes
Shamed by imperfection
She'll cease to be great
If she shuns her...

Trust IssuesTrust is an issue that is dear to my heart,
It can’t be given or taken from the start.
It must be earned, it is the only way,
Head my words, there is truth in them today.
In this present world that we...

Trust IssuesAt times it feels like the world is out to get her. Sometimes it seems like no one is on her side. She has been left by her father. Been told she's fat by her grandmother. Nothing she ever does pleases her mother. She has...

Daddy IssuesWorld is full of witches
I'd love to write on them with stitches
Would you like to talk about your daddy issues,
I got time, lets break out some tissues
You say you want honesty
Your reaction while receiving is deceiving
Your say you and your man share many loving...

Trust IssuesTrust Issues
Lovers trust,
While devils lust,
But it's so serpently,
The way you hiss,
In a choked up bliss,
As you slither away from me.
You're left with no eyes,
Left with no tongue,
Left with no legs,
With which to run.
One more slice,
Your movements entice,
One more slit,
And a...

Nuclear Family IssuesMight we be having trouble fusing nuclear energy,
as opposed to the more troubling nuclear fission's anti-energy,
because nuclear fusion is just normal everyday Business As Usual
cooperation of thermodynamically fusing nuclei?
Oh, I see,
like it's easier to notice you're having another nice healthy day
after you experience the divisive...

Family Issuesbefuddled by mud puddle conversation
motivated to stay away from those in the throes of saving face
at a sprinter's pace
saving grace
each time I grind with people who don't mind blindly trying to debase my name
I end up sulking in the walk of shame
families need to...

Racing IssuesWhy are we the human race
rather than another extinguishing species?
Why not the human species
and not the cockroach race?
Why is human nature
intended as somehow supremely natural
not within but faster than,
above and beyond
inferior sensual nature?
Why is race,
inhuman embrace-conflicted context,
a qualitative noun,
stultifying stasis,
rather than a speeding verb
toward...
