Best Keep Down Poems

Walking my Tiger home, if only I had known
in the small print of the sale there was a claws
in a nutshell it was leading to instructions about feeding
if I'd have known I would have stopped to think and paws.
Fur this big cat ain't no Vegan...

Life's Hard
It's filled with pain
And misery
My mind is stained
Stained with every memory

Sometimes I think today will be my last day
This place causes me so much pain
I wish I didn't have to stay

Some days are worse than others
I'm starving
Dying for food
I'd do anything

To many things go...

In this dark corner
Of this dark room,
I sit in the shadows,
I sit in the doom.
I see a light,
A light right ove there,
I cannot reach it.
No longer its there.
In this large group,
Of people I love,
I feel so alone,
Like everyones above.
This isnt a choice,
Of choices its not.

These four walls that surround me today are casting out shades of grey. They are holding me in trying to keep down but now I'm profound. They have held me down and kept me hiding for quite sometime that somehow I must escape and be...

Housewives peer from behind dirty windows
Catching signs of the scurrying nightlife
They know killing time is really a sin, 
Though they can be absolved by watching Ellen and her wife
Where you can rediscover the inner you
She’s got one so you’ll want one too
Can’t call that greed...

Zoning by micro-climates my
Yards' spaces, and then
Xeriscaping them to conserve
Water because of the drought, I can
Visualize neat straight furrows
(Under colorful vines
Trailing red, green, and purple grapes)
Saturated with various seedlings:
Radishes, squashes, sprouts, etc.
Quietly absorbing sunlight, and
Pushing roots deeper into my
Organically amended soil.
Nasturtiums, previously planted,
Misdirect insects away...

Another job

Get yourself another job,
Says the bloody Tory snob,
Commo’s under the bed he says,
Dead an buried are those days,
Few Commo’s left Magog…   
(Communists)

Trying 4 a job to get,
Tory buggers will not let,
Want the contract, just with me,
Lowest wage bidder, gets it see,
paltry greedy...

My long time friend Bill enlisted in 1962
Back then he said, "It's the right thing to do!"
He served his country with vigor and pride 
Fought in the jungle and watched his friend die
 

A machine gun severed three fourths of Bill's leg
He cut off the...

Sensual as and so sensual is,
When fire ignites, the dead have risse,
You can’t keep down the passion earned,
Over wrought, with rigid squirm,
Heat and steam and vision blurred,
Fascinated, and completely stirred
Thought is gone, deep wanting heard,
For meatballs this is grim,
Is he about to swim,
Or droopy has...

Doesn’t matter what you say
Doesn’t matter what you do
It doesn’t discriminate
Not even against you

Keep playing games
Living life in the fast lane
You’ve been warned – better take heed
Don’t think it’s a lie, you better believe

It’s all on the radio
You see it on TV
Don’t keep down this...

Conundrum

In this sad world of pain and dark dismay;
Each sundry soul has his own price to pay.

For life's sweet favors we must pay the sum.
Both for today and all the days to come.

Winners and losers we must forever be.
How much we win or lose we...

Stepping out, the smell of smoke hangs in the morning air,
plastic cones and tubes and sticks are littered everywhere.
Another Guy Fawke's night has gone, bombarding all the senses
the night sky sounds and looks just like the Moscow air defences.
All year we're told be clean and...

One is very open minded
 And one is a little shy
 But if you try at night
 And the price is just right
 You can buy some Pride and Joy


And when your feeling lonely
 They're something to enjoy
 It's always much better
 when you get...
