Best Phoney Poems


Mobile Phoney
Dedicated to all the people who either gaze into the phone or it is permanantly stuck to their ear

Life is the same game, remorse, regrets and shame
Sick of the pain, the rain and the late train
Listening to the politicians with their same spiel
Turn off the TV, the radio, for a while
Listen to something new with...

I’m visiting a brand new clairvoyant
if she’s good I’ll be her best client
She’s been recommended to me
though she charges a very high fee

I arrived promptly at a quarter to four
and rapped loudly on her front door
She opened the door wearing a scowl
and spat out these words with a growl


“Who are you  …
 I wasn’t...

Villanelle: The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy

The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy
Who’ll stoop to any level to scuttle the imagined rival
Smiles drawn tight on faces sullen with conspiracy

Yin’s motivating force lies in usurping Yang’s glory
Drives it to ape and rob the Yang for supposed survival
The Fake or...

It's a selfless act on our part and we're going to devote a
Day or two to set you right and get things under control"

Phoney
Testing my patience, trying me in every way,
I can't believe this is you making me feel this way.

Though time will go on, 
it seems to have stopped in its tracks,
to show my love again,
against me the odds are stacked.

to never love or trust again,
make me feel so lonely,
I guess I should have opened my eyes,
because...

My wallet is empty of cash
When it appears which is rarely
I usually give it away 
Doesn’t really matter, not really 
It’s gone as soon as I get it anyway
It never lasts but that's okay
Besides, I have plenty of credit 
VISA, MasterCard, Discovery 
And the more I “spend” 
With that lending hand 
The more trust I...
