Best Marks The Spot Poems


X marks the spot



Monstrously Machievellian

Demonic pedagogic

Ominously Orwellian

Demagogic logic 

Fools’ Musk-ovite mules

Zuckerberg zeitgeist heist

Dickensian dystopia rules

Google last post bugle 

Fossil fuels myopia drools

Bellicose Bezos blows

Bro-ligarchy mates’ malarkey

Unions demonstrate

Amazon defenestrate 

Hades Gates hierarchy

Murdoch foxy skulduggery

Poxy TikTok runs amok

Crass puns..shock thuggery

This lot don't give a jot
.
Bitter sh**ter Twitter

Greedier needier seedier

The death...

Once a year, it's the season, I fear
That lures us three, to the loch
Were we rent a boat, in earnest we hope
To catch all the fish, that they stock

McGee, he was rowing, I told him, "Start Slowing"
For here, looks like a good spot
The anchor cast...

X Marks the Spot
X Marks the Spot 

It’s the 19th consonant, 24th letter, of the alphabet,
A Teachers’ markings, for wrong answers on a test!
A Greek numeral representation for, the number ten!
An unnamed or unknown, person, place or thing,

Used to remove or cancel, a word of unnecessary need,
A movie...

X Marks the Spot
Yo ho ho and a bottle of wine;
Your heart will be mine.
You will make me walk the plank;
Because on your love I can bank.

Me heartie, I be coming for you.
Brave a cutlass battle, through and through.
Secret isles we will go a-sailing.
Give me another kiss, never...

X marks the spot
Where a young child had stood,
Enjoying his friends’ company as only
A young child could.

X marks the spot
Where the child lay dying,
Medics there to save his life, 
Desperately trying.

X marks the spot,
From which the crowd was kept, 
The child’s mother who broke through
And...

Easter Part 1: X Marks the Spot
X marks the spot, the darkest stain, when man slew God, born King to reign.

No other blood could pay the debt, so lamb hung punctured while mother wept.

X marks the spot, where on deaths best day, life seemed to lose, hope fade to grey.

But it...

A Flower Marks the Spot
Not to be forgotten
Never to be peacefully laid to rest

Memorials for the fallen abound
They are reminders that 
Pull at the heart strings
And make everyone think
Of the shortness of living

An irreversible loss that can never be regained
Nor allowed to be forgotten
Is marked for posterity

Street corners and...

Written: by Tom Wright
January 2015

My memory, Is a site inhabited
By a few shallow graves,
For no painful matter have I interred,
That Satan doesn’t periodically excavate it.
He’s like an aging dog, digging up old bones 
Even when I displace to another location, 
He shows up marking an...

He thought he knew me oh so well
Every inch and flinch and swallow
But as time passed I realized 
How empty unfulfilled and shallow
One sided love is torment
When he doesn't have a clue
Faking is not my forte 
What's a girl to do?
I have told him time...

Premium Member Our Bot Marks the Spot
In our palace lives a bot
    Quite a finicky task it has got

  Thrice daily removes every single spot
    from the royal server -- the '10-2-4' teapot  

  Our bot makes that teapot shine and sparkle

Question Marks the Spot
Question marks the spot on my heart
like... why you told me i love you

Question marks the spot on my heart

shoot me death's look in the next hour...
Question marks the spot on my heart

Premium Member Broken Is Spoken Quiet Marks the Spot
  Spoken said
Verbalized declared enunciated
Given aired voiced
Brought out whispered
Proclaimed commented
Blurted breathed broadcasted

SPOKEN

Asserted affirmed promulgated
Spoken truths and untruths
Advertised where am I to be casted
Publicized overwhelmed subdued demoralized

BROKEN

Talked discussed uttered thrown up despaired
Vented broadcast gasped phrased up and out
Broken
 Snarled shot ripped (out)
Silently diverted screams of...

The Spot us as colored been striving to reach

Mitigated

To ascend at the top of the peak

To take what's rightfully ours as humans

Taking our share of necessity in Life

From being nothing

To become an important part of our

Nation
