Best Outclassed Poems


Revere the Founding Fathers, Part Ii
...And Alexander Hamilton,
though know for controversy,
served alongside Washington
in the war to make us free.
Helped build up our new armed forces,
set the stage for our economics,
the prosperity we still enjoy,
he had a lot to do with it.
The man stood against slavery
when many just chose to ignore
the...

Premium Member The Battle of the Shearing Shed
Ronald was a tough old ram, the biggest of his breed
Daniel was a clipperman, renowned of shearing deed
Many sheep were sheared that day and woolless they had fled
Before those two met in affray and battled in the shed!

Ronald, he had seen old Wallace wrestled to...

Premium Member Oliver, a Boy
My mother's name was Seraphine
A sadder child was never seen 
Her duty was to serve the table
Of newly widowed Mrs. Grable

Her husband Mr. Grable died
To keep the British gratified
For which the lady, born and bred
Was brought to stay with Master Ted

Their lineage was the House...

Premium Member I Always Loved You, For Maria
To my dear daughter...
I loved you, in your sweet Mary Janes.
In all our travels that were fine and plane.

You cannot remember how I pulled your hair.
Those braids,so tangled yet shiny and brunette fair.

You won’t have the pride, I did.
Watching you from the audience at Fairmont,...

Dystopian Dignity
Sweeping through what once was mine
Gazing at this ravaged shrine
Composing the vitals in thoughts divine
Cut my losses and bleed through time
Here I'll stand along these lines

Chimerical dreams in the hands of Morpheus
Acidic tears that corrode the capricious
Inscrutable plans that defy the obvious
Vanishing ties that remove...

Premium Member Six Man Dance
Out in small town Texas, a handshake is a deal.
Folks go to church on Sunday, say grace at every meal.
Men open doors for ladies, kids say sir and ma'am.
Boys can't wait to join the Corps, and serve their Uncle Sam.

But if you were to go...

Premium Member Not Just Defeat, It Was An Annihilation
Tonight, there is no joy in the Broncos nation.
That was not just defeat, it was an annihilation.
Many of us were witnesses to the devastation.
It made Denver television viewers change the station.

Numerous Broncos fans must be wearing a frown.
In four quarters, they scored one measly touchdown.
It...

Damn where is my mind at, striving and finding the best way to adapt,

            Collapsing the conditioning through written raps that never nap,

Talk Is Cheap - Battle Rap
Talk is Cheap - Battle Rap

Yo, Ima outcheek you… gimme that mic,
I’m lethal, a viper ready to strike;
and it ain’t gonna be pretty – not ladylike.
Just gotta tell you straight up like it is…
Dude, you got no place in this kinda biz.
You’re stuff’s outdated like...

70 Metres Dash
Sports Day at the primary school
The kids were 7 and 9
They’d been at the school for 4 or 5 years
It seemed such a very short time.

For dads there was the Blue Ribbon event
I always gave it a bash;
The ritual humiliation of
The 70m Dash.

Now bear in...

Lies Are Wise
Uncomfortable confronting 
your continuous consumption to which you're accustomed, 
the crunch, the chew, it's all you do, 
most munch at lunch while you the whole day through, 
can't get a grip like a hug holding you 
but when you sip it's a diet brew 
no...

Iron Horse, 1840
These grassy margins under sky of blue,
so peaceful. Then a rumble, sudden blast – 
can you stand your ground as the train roars through?

Here’s Progress. Boston, all across this New
England, folks with tickets for transit massed.
These grassy margins under sky of blue

once buffered cities. Landscape’s...

Dreaming In Leceister
Impossible dreams that give rise to miracles do happen in real life,
How else can one explain  as riotous celebrations burst into life,
There in Leicester City when her football team confirmed their supremacy,
With a final 3-1 rout of their latest opponent from the illustrious Everton...

Plight of a Woman
A diminutive girl, born in a colossal world.
Originate as a weed, no one like to plant this seed.
All and sundry cried and swept, feeling depressed
the outcome of their sleepless nights was not perfect, 
the girl was never given respect.
Being discriminated and the only one who...

Laura Sugar
Laura was born with her foot at the wrong angle, 
Which is the condition of Talipes, but many ops,
Corrected this, although she was left standing, 
With very little ankle movement. She loves sport. 

Through school she found hockey and in 2011,
Playing in the indoor squad...
