Best Manhandling Poems
Too Close to the EdgeMemories of a bleak childhood haunted him ever and anon.
Whenever he thinks of that dark day, a thousand blades cut through him.
Shocked by the ferocity of that memory, his mind still goes insane.
Old wounds are bleeding, as their scabs are scratched.
Born so poor, his family...

A September AlouetteSeptember is here
With skies bright and clear.
Summer birds will be southbound.
Cooler breezes near.
School football we cheer.
The young quarterback is downed.
Parents go berserk,
Call player a jerk
For manhandling their loved son.
The ref's not a shirk,
Is good at his work,
Says no infraction was done....

A Flash ViewAs the TV screen comes alive,
Screeching with news of death,
In natural calamities and road accidents
Of war on Ukraine that kills and maims thousands
Of carnage and bloodshed,
Of gory tales of rape and molestation
Of manhandling and suicide
Of battered childhood and teary eyed women
Of politicians’ pandemonium open...

Long Since Stopped Binge Reading Bertrand Russell IiSlow and methodical
thru telling material I tiresomely did wade
steeping yours truly signature

one bedroom apartment (B44)

property management firms in this area.

Prosthetic PositivitiesSelf-perfidy ignites the story again
Contemptuously, I run to my patience's edge;
Strain it further, till I make the inner-burst.
Then, retreat callously, pricked by mundane-me.
Stuffing disgust, within air already replete with loathe
Growing old meaninglessly was never been so apparent.
Earthly cravings enshroud 'tomorrow-shines' Dreams
Habituated to condone...

Tampered WithPoised, she walked into a department store; a stranger was suddenly wowed.
He appeared in ideal manliness, then lost her in the crowd. So, he searched for
those slender curves through all the women's clothes, but she was on the other
side looking through...

Child LaborerI was pulled out of the school; doomed into hard labor,
To my home, at budding age, I became a life-saver...!
When kids of my age, with stylish satchels, proceed to school,
I, in cracker-workshops noxious, chemicals heat and cool...!
With my tender hands, I shape cute beautiful...

Standing In the GapAn amount of dark and light
is all that may be required on some days.
Awareness can monitor the heart-rate of God
underneath the surface of the teaming world
quite well
with a portion of this and that and no more.
The worker enters the full field,

I love how he is always fondling me until I aloud curse....

No more pride
Abusing the meek,
Manhandling the weak,
Pleasure, if you like to seek,
Thinking that they don’t speak,
Your life becomes very bleak,
Once the torture reaches its peak!
People will no longer be mute.
If you change not your pursuit,
It will bring down your repute;
Very bitter is its fruit!
Become not ‘The Narcissistic...
