Best Pandered Poems

Long ago
a year or so
I received accolades a plenty
I won this, and I won that
I was on top of it all
I was almost the whole shebang
I was important
I was all about me
I pandered and pounded
I wanted attention and I won
I was sad, when my cheating...

To balance on a bike

you've gotta keep moving

but

 

since we can't

always move

 

our lives will improve

if we learn just when

it's time time time

to put a foot down

 

to keep

from falling

and breakin

our crown

 

wise is the way to flow

and forward

is the way

to go

in

this place

called the space...

We ponder Pandora as the person preordained
to unleash a plethora of plagues upon our persons.

But here's what I heard:
Pandora had two sisters,
Persephone and Proserpina.
Pandora perused poetry 
while Persephone practiced petite-point.
But Proserpina possessed the predilection
for picking on people.
She pestered the portly, poor, pretty and plain.
Her past...

Waves of invisible noise rise and sink
As quick as your heartbeat,
And as slow.
Your beauty grows day by day,
And I like to think that you know exactly who I am,
And your smile for me, is not only wind.
I also like to think that the concrete grip...

EVIL'S HORN

Is hate the driving force of our endeavors
the fear of heaven’s myth our revelation 
our sole remaining choice be now or never

existing in the state of self-cremation
pandered passion flaunted in death’s crumbling mask
denial of a life as its salvation

mindless chanting by the doers of...

as things speed up 
at an ever faster clip
they're ready to interrupt
my mind's day nondescript
to mark my thoughts - every tiny blip

and keep them cross-indexed
in a clouded database
kept in the current context
never to be erased
their potential to be raised

and analyze my standard deviation
modeled with statistical...

the empire has had enough---
having pandered to those occupying for 2 months now,
standing cute & subtle beside, avoiding aggression 
so as to avoid unfavorable photo-ops with those
resisting,
so as to avoid having the footage being posted on youtube &
other places on the net---
now the evictions, the...

I am the great debater, and the world my only stage
I prime my proper thoughts preparing for  the lone spotlight 
I revel in religious rants that rage across the page
while I oppose audacious offal torn from tongues I fight.

I am the great orator, on...

Powerfully pandered not pondered and plotted 
Ostensibly organic not overtly originally spotted
Liars lipping lethargic lies lavishly construed and truly
Ire inducing ignorance imputing irresponsible foolery
Terrorizing timid tepid taxpayers to respond fast
In an impatient ill illegal inconceivable idiotic mad blast
Callously cold and cantankerously conniving bastards
Assiduously aspiring and...

Oh Babylon the Great , the Dragon Queen
false religion rides the highway of mankinds being
clothed without visions robes of splendor
conceals the violations of Truth you render 
 
The crown you have gained through war and bloodshed
proof that what lies inside your heart is dead
"let the...

I think back on the women, 
I've graced with my presence, 
Some thankful, some spiteful, 
For the short or long sentence, 
They did all provide me, 
With an honest intrusion, 
At times complimentary, 
With a twist of confusion, 
They covered the spectrum, 
From need to...

Subtle and mild.

Summer love came.

Answering our cry.

In swift reply.

Marooned.

In mid-summer's bloom.

Secrets rendered.

Illuminated under moon.

Radiant nights.

Pandered to our request.

Forever and this moment.

This life and the next....

How soon the heroes daughters and sons
  lost in the morning shadow run
     of a distant and clouded sun;
all the dreams that survive
  are mere nightmares still alive
    of what we once contrived
for America and freedom...

Prepackaged compliment,
  our badge of delight

Symbol and emblem,
—deceptively bright

A pandered acknowledgement,
—slap on the back

Others controlling,
  the acceptance we lack

From times in past in kingdoms vast 
 Man has taken thou time 
Pandered to his own needs 
Making our world a debauchery 
Fraught with weight and burden
Man fail to cease the day 
Thou has seen the daughters of elysium stray 
As does the world...
