Best Miscue Poems

2/2/17


Stay tuned
For the soon to be boom
Between the sun and moon
And any flowers that do or don't bloom
During morning, night and afternoon

Lifeforms becoming unglued
Nobody is immune
Never assume
Acting like a buffoon
And being rude or lewd
Just because you think there may be doom
And are full of rue

So...

 My name has spread round the neighborhood
anytime I slip and commit the slightest miscue.
The best news caption to all ears
is when the topic centers on my issue.

Their deadly words causing much pain
as they eat up every tissue.
Refusing me all opportunity to redeem myself
as all...

Beguiled are the victims of his sin.
Welcome! Welcome! To the Vultures Grin.
Using his charm and handsome good looks…
Don’t be fooled by the cover of this book.

He says he wears his heart on his sleeve…
It’s all part of his plan to win and deceive.
Be warned that...

Green peas and all kinds of beans
are split open to release their seeds,
like those peas in a green pod,
that mother cooked in a huge pot!


One of my dad's friends who wore a veteran's brooch, 
would shamelessly cheat to get a delicious split-pea soup;
mom didn't know...

The white rose she held
simply untimely miscue
dumped its white pale skin
in its prime, pierced her heart
this very day, and many more
with spun fancies that she dreams
in her sleep, she did run
as her heart did break
like the
white beautiful rose
that she was......

Do not let any gossip get on you!

Do not chew gossip pieces like a cashew

or cause your true mood to lift or subdue!

Please do not pursue a friendly gossip review
from others who cannot add or subtract one clue
to avoid a stressed fight or flight gossip...

He fell in love with the blue arching
He fell in love with his hair standing on end
He fell in love with the power
And he fell in love with you.
He never chose to leave, but his job
Took him away.
Every day he risked his life,
Never making a...

You had the numbers.
          The reverse trends begins-
          with uneasy and dark ambush.

A fatal miscue. You
          will get...

A SNIPERS TALE
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS


My spotter and I form a highly efficient crew
Dedicated to eliminating those menacing you
We take up position under the cover of night
Then search for the sniper hidden from sight
Scour the terrain for any sight of his presence
Find him first, for he...

G-iving an alibi or reason 
R-esults to another miscue; 
E-xcuses are just flimsy, 
T-hey have little worth or value. 
H-ow can giving an alibi 
E-xempt one from liability? 
L-iars are fathered by Satan, as they have no plausibility. 

T-welfth of February Monday, 
A-dmit your lapse...

Little words the broken hearted heal
Little smiles the morose comfort
Little deals prime movers seal
Little irritations sometimes stray into the fort     

Where they wreak havoc 
Instead of sowing care
In circumstances where cavok
Would minimize the despair

Felt in hearts lost in a sea of...

A blooper, a blunder, a bungle, a botch
A miscue, a misstep, misjudgment and more
A faux pas, a boo-boo, a bumble for sure
A miscalculation, a miscomputation, grade goes down a notch....

Fantasies glisten. Wealth untold.
Dimly clear; seen near and afar.
Wee men; chase around pots of gold.
Missed heaven. Prospecting a star.

She wishes; he’d only listen.
When lovers drift. They drift bizarre.
Act out; miscue the rendition.
Missed heaven. Prospecting a star.

He utters “turn the other cheek.”
Sneakers; lacing up the crossbar.

Finally walking with a cane to steady myself
Self-image delayed my usage but my need has swelled
Unsteadiness is the issue
So to avoid a miscue
Health is more important than image, who gives a hell...

I'm at the entrance of you,
and I don't know what to do.
I don't know where to begin
to try to find my way in
without making a disqualifying miscue....
