Best Offense Poems

I have found little in this 
and none in that 
I am a women 
but have yet to have 
a positive reaction to sex
at least to the heterosexual kind
I'm becoming more curious
about what exactly it is next 
door that I will find.
I don't particular think...

The White House is on a great lot
It's Washington's drive to it spot
But guards only train
That terror's to contain
So mentally ill there get shot


Author's note:  The new treatment for postpartum depression is now a firing squad....

Heart of porcelain with crimson lips
Cracks a gap toothed grin
But troubled cobalt eyes
Reflect a sorrow deep within

Chestnut locks obscure his sight
As he now hangs his head
He shrinks in silence suddenly
His countenance speaks dread
I look to see what force has come
To bring about the change
But, when...

My bad is one way, but sorry is the best
To replenish the bliss that flows through my flesh
Your perfect to me but every bullet won’t hit the vest

Good intentions were intended but I’m sorry it wasn’t shown
But when the bullet left the gun, it’s too...

The Offense

The days for a while were so happy
such a glow and a smile on his face, 
the holidays had come and gone
yet through it all God had given them His blessed grace.

Sometimes it is just a careless word that has been spoken
but then the...

Your words they stand eternally,
They’re words that cannot simply leave
They sink into my memory
Like stones set on misery

Tried to make some good of them,
Found it hard to call you a friend
Your truth was so bold
Time lost in their cold

Why do we smile so easy
For a...

Pondering from perch the other day,
a thought grew as two conversed.
Addendum to what you have to say,
gives quarter to him, sacred cursed.
Utterances,hurtful, make others tense.
Apathetically dissuaded with "no offense".

In a tandem embraced scene 
fearful men wage war with a word.
Cutting low, they boast and preen,
stating...

No offense, one kid says.
But school lunch’s meat tastes like raccoon droppings.
Why would that be offensive? I wonder....

Do you know I am
not dissin' you when I write
stuff I call haiku?

Soup makes me pick form
and sometimes that's only one
makes any sense 'tall.

Anyhow respect
(like, muchly) peops who study
and try to perfect.

I do things my way.
I like that others do things
otherly than me.

Now, here's the...

I'm waiting-

Fences,

Offenses,

Come over!...

Someone smells like smoke.  I can barely stand to sit here.
Clenching my teeth, I have a headache, everywhere near.
A friendly smoker has sat next to me, oh, dear.
I jump up, because her smell is killing me, so clear.

I am an asthmatic, and I cannot...

The sting of offense 
Is crippling 
To an unrepentive heart
When wounded by a fiery dart
Walls of defense
Built on revenge
Will only pull us apart

We can not take back
Or change what has been done
But we can overcome
Choosing to love the one
Who by all standards
Is unworthy of our...

"You shouldn't cook that!"

I heard them all say.

"Why, that's only served

on Christmas Day!"



"You shouldn't bake that,

Something else you must cook.

Our husbands will know

and how will that look?"



"It's fourth of July

No time for that dish.

These rules can't be broken

please honor our wish!"



But I pay no heed

to...

I sit with pen in hand this downcast morn;
     and search the Muses for more enraptured songs;
songs of great cheer, of memories heartworn,
     to banish the spirits of inflicted wrongs;

before, no songs could quell the ruthless onslaughts
