Best Pessimism Poems

Down with pessimism
  Drown not in negativism
Beware of escapism
  Steer clear of cynicism

Keep far from fanaticism
  It only invites antagonism
Too lonely is monasticism
  Too stifling, collectivism

Failure dogs perfectionism
  Emptiness mars materialism
Insularity deadens catechism
  Stoicism breeds fatalism...

True, this poem is...

Pandemic pessimism 

There is no such thing as society.
Forgo forgiving, forget free lunch,
Just plates of debt and toxic punch.
First come first served, no us, just me
Seeking survival in celebrity.
Self serving, Kentucky Fried Credit Crunch.
My savings eaten for breakfast by the finance bunch,
As bran flake banks...

Imagine.

The canvas is enormous, bigger than you or I.
The brushes are many, 
Though the hues are only five: three primaries and two shades.
I am the painter of my canvas.

Older canvases, like the art of painting, have no rules.
But this canvas is new.  
Its one...

I'm reserved..Don't say much...
I'm shy..but confident as well..
I don't Express b/c I feel lurch...
When my own said thoughts make my life hell !!

My thoughts are pure and I know that!
You make me feel like I've made a mistake...
Mistaken..In choosing you from the lot!
Mistaken...b/c my emotions...

Like seed buried in the ground
Love is deeply buried with no sound;

Dictators hearts have no shame
There only objective is to maim;
They don’t like any opposition
They torture for instant submission.

Weaklings probing for some care
They have nothing to share.

Rapist for total control they perceive
Taking by force without...

There is nothing I would not do to assuage
all in you slipping deprived and love awry.
I focus my wishes to diminish your anguish,
to remind you of our perfect designed kisses;
their puckery allure secured our lover’s map
and tapped our wants to ever stay like that.
As a...

Pessimism is a perplexive fine phase 
Wherein orb-adversity reign the days
The darkest hours of the desperate gaze
Those evade to every pervading rays.

No option that he could, or can opt for
For everything seems futile to adopt
Where aspirations, stretched and left afar
As to no hope & despair,...

Why takes place terrorism?
Is it due to lack of optimism?
Or do devils do tricky hypnotism?
It surely cripples enthusiasm

Tigers and lions kill for food
Otherwise, no killing mood
Hunger makes them rude
But, man is badly crude

By man religion is invented
And peace is by him prevented
Fellow men are cruelly...

A week past pessimism 
here I sit,
remembering weakly
Days and dreams 
false hopes and prophets
ineptitude and missed ambition.

but now, I tell myself,
remember now no more,
cast aside each fett'ring weight; 
and paint the future
if u can
with the untamed neon 
or colors far beyond this spectrum.

yes, still sit...

Thank you
For putting me down
and leaving me astound,
For which I'm ungrateful
because you've made my life extremely painful....

I once had an office job sitting next to Miss Sunshine day in and day out. She and her 7th Day Adventist Jesus were always so positive and jolly about everything, it was hard not to smack her.

One day with syrupy sweet intonation she asked...

People who want misery 
will find it in everything

An angel becomes the devil
The flower wilts
A cloud blocks the shining sun

Angry people pick fights with you
pretending it's themselves


Don't be your own
 Worst
   Enemy....

The sheer maintenance of the probability,
Nothing is comparable to our garrulous mendacity.
Nothing can be called a consummate pattern,
Except for any tremendous aching, this life would only be a fallacious earn.

You are just an archetypal passer-by without any aim,
You want to play an unwarranted game.
Your loudest...

The ancient times,
Buried the Genesis 
Of today's psyches,
Recycled but deformed,
Stale and stinking- 
Evolutionary idioms?
The visual décor
And the packaging
Of rotten, 
Oh no, The heaven
Ruined with the billowing smokes,
Hiding the power of Sun,
Drumming the catastrophe....
