Best Like A Sore Thumb Poems

My Name Is

I am the reason people
Lie to one another
Hatred, jealous, and envy
Toward their brother
I will make you cry
Don’t care how you feel
And if you are not careful
Your very life I will steal
My name is what, and
Who you think it is
I am the big dog
The...

I see it everyday
I walk by the same plant
Sitting on the kitchen table
Never really giving it much thought

But today as I was eating take-out
With that little plant sitting right there in front of me
I began to think more and more about it
And as I looked...

Readers acknowledge first lines as vital
Nothing grabs attention like a snappy title
People dislike poems that do not rhyme
Criticizing writers for committing a “crime”
How I hate being hated for being me
Now I see, for I, is Kenneth to be
If I choose to inscribe in a passive...

Getting ready to go to the big school
Was such a worrying thing
I heard grim tales of bullies
The teachers and the cane
And when I saw the savages
Get of the bus and fight
The worry almost drove me insane.

I remember my mother taking me 
for a new school...

Oh how unlucky can a boy be
Not to have one sister but three
I was always the one who got the blame
And had to hang my head in shame
For everything 
They could do no wrong
And how they'd tease me all day long
They made Cinderella's ugly sisters...

(This is a lyric that is a rap, pop and rock song - 3 in 1. Have fun, reading!)

So, you think that I am weak
Oh no, you let spill the doubt leak
Times like these look so bleak
I’m sorry, babe, for losing my mind
Over you, sure,...

A picture’s worth a thousand words,
At least that’s what they say;
But sometimes truth’s revealed
That really takes your breath away.

Perhaps you never realized
That you have an extra chin;
Or that some yellow teeth appear
When you decide to grin.

A bald spot that you cannot see
‘Cause it’s behind your...

You hold my life by the strings
You control me with those wooden planks
You think you're the almighty God
That gives lives meaning
By making and controlling their destinies

But you've tugged me left and right
Controlled my life in every way
If I manage to do something without your say
You...

I have learned;
 that crap does occur.
   I have learned;
 that there is a his and a hers.

   I have learned;
 that sometimes love is not enough,
   I have learned;
 that they're really is a diamond in the rough.

Life in 3 dimensional 
Reach ouch
Touch
My face
Standing out
Like a sore thumb
Only in your view...

TERMINATION

I never imagined that I’d be back at school
Retired from work, yet I’m no longer a kid
But all modern media has caught me out
That flicking and tapping makes me pout
For all the wrong reasons I’m off the grid
Some youths think a dumb phone is cool

I...

I'm my day the Army
Was very frugal with our kit.
Whenever possible if seemed
They recycled every bit.
My Greatcoat had certainly 
Been around for a while;
It was of a different cloth
And of a  different style.

With it back at the Billet
I just couldn't wait
To check the label...

I don't fit into your circle, I didn't want to try out for your band,
Because I would rather not be labeled, I hope you understand,
I didn't want all that extra attention,
All I wanted was a simple life of love and inspiration,
If only you truly knew,
That...

Live 
 
well endowed.
 
Stand up,
 
Be proud,
 
like you're floating
 
on a cloud.
 
When you whisper,
 
hush,
 
but whisper loud.
 
Stand out 
 
like a sore thumb
 
in a crowd.
 
 
 
 
Dream vast.
 
Walk slow.
 
Run fast.
 
Kiss passionately.
 
Close your eyes...

Trump Sticks Out Like Sore Thumb

Trump sure sticks out like a sore thumb;
Not only that he did appear to be dumb;
Was uncoordinated;
By everyone hated;
Even bit tongue when chewing his gum.
