Best Only Joking Poems


Sarcasm Bites
Lunging forward a stab to the heart,
vitriol hurled at an unsuspecting soul.
A sarcastic word or comment, thrown in jest,
tearing flesh, leaving a gaping hole.
I was only joking, ha ha, wasn't that fun?
he says to no one.
Why are you hurt?
They're only words you know,
letters put together...

Nina Parmenter, In An Arp Me Tern
I'm flattered by Nina but need to take her to the cleaners,
and splat her inbetweeners with fluid from wieners.
Don't mock or beat down Bath when you're Bristolian,
you were all conceived in a seat in the Odeon,
and you should defuzzle that muzzle after a dozen shots
or...

A Bit of Fun
I am trying to be patient
Determined to be fair
But she's been over an hour in the bathroom
What is she doing in there .

She said I must be ready 
So I wear my suit and tie
But now we can't go out 
Until her hair is fully...

Step Off
gravity
homeboy got capped in the knee
out in the streets 
let the truth be told
where as years ago
with Grandmaster P
he was born in the gutter 
his momma was a whore
selling her junk in the trunk
in back of the liquor store
screaming more more more
raised my his aunt...

Premium Member Comedians Tell Jokes, Fools Ridicule
It’s odd how people who think they are funny, 
Confuse humor with offensive ridicule.
Saying hurtful, empty and shallow comments,
Pretending it’s all April fool.

Not standing behind what they say, or
Taking the blame for the hurt they cause.
Saying “Hey I was only joking, they’re not even here.”
As...

Premium Member To Irritate, Yeah
Please may I be abrupt, it's the nature of this beast
Especially with ones wine, it's the fuelling of thine feast

Well, I'm a man, so let me make my start
I'm prone to erupt, no anger, but simply fart

To also roar I can, with an incredible furore
Dare...

Leftovers From All Over Buffet
Something had just occurred to me 
As I sat and talked to Cleetus Magee
He was only joking that day
I took it serious in an odd, pathetic way
He suggested I open my own place for people to eat
I began to brainstorm on the cost for food,...

Love To Hate
The transition of love to hate, can take years or less
Never, ever could or would one have anticipated in their dream state 
imagination, let alone awake, walking and talking reality, this 360 degree
change was possible, no red flags when you met then wed
no sirens alarmed,...

Bad Resolutions
BAD RESOLUTIONS 

Be good, be kind, help those along the way.
All good resolutions I’ve made on New Year’s Day.
Don’t do this, don’t do that, do know right from wrong.
Resolutions I have never kept for long.
Every year I’ve broken them before the end of June.
So, now...

A Guilty Pair
A Guilty Pair
Under the Stars and moon so bright
Two lovers lie in the field at night

What’s that noise?
It can’t be boys

Have no fear
For I am here
Of all the things we feared the most
It’s not your husband, just a Ghost
Oh Love I’m only joking
But soft I...

Premium Member If You Wanna Ride With Me
You’ve got to be strong
Got to know what you want
Can’t be too sensitive
Have to know I am only joking
Got to be free
And frank
Got to be number one
Got to speak your mind
Not a very good mind reader I am
Got to live 
Got to be 
Got to...

Lovesong
Give me a break.
Stand there smiling, like it’s easy
As I bash my head against the wall
And the world is caving in on me
Through the blood in my eyes it’s hard to see
How much farther can I fall?

God, let me breathe
I can’t bear this cage you’ve...

All Alone
On a dark and stormy morning, 
You left me all alone. 
I thought you were only joking, 
but you were doing this to hurt me. 

I thought you really liked me, 
but now I see that you don't. 
You left me all alone, 
with no...

Jessie J
Jessie J


What can I say about the sponge to my head?
Well she is beautiful, even if she will not wear a dress;
That is he Emmeline Pankhurst right I guess,
But like I’ve always said, 
Jess would look good in something silky and red.


She is not sure...

Premium Member It's a Sight
You have to really see it 
then you'll truly believe 
there before your very eyes 
it's hidden up your sleeve 

Of course I'm only joking 
that's not where it is 
just look over the horizon 
no this is not a quiz 

Look ahead have a...
