Best Phoniness Poems

I’ve been curious 
You don’t be sayin’ much 
But I think I’m falling

Hey,
There’s depth within your morals
It’s somethin’ about the way you hold yourself
We resonate on a different level 

Take the risk
You can be yourself around me 
No phoniness 

Don’t you miss having somebody to...

To be blessed 
May the Lord Almighty set me free
To peacefully pace in His island’s lee
When the vice storms in a lusty surge 
And Eden earth is thrashed with its scourge  

When ethics to the right, to the left, adrift 
 And loosely swings...

In It,  I Saw Prometheus Chained And Bound


I was reading Salinger's, "Catcher In The Rye" 
A follow up from Leo Tolsty's,  "War and Peace"
I heard a voice say, "seek wisdom before you die"
Remember this, courage was a mainstay of Greece
And dear ole Mark...

...Only children still believe in friends, and only stupid children at that...

We come off the same tree like berries 
Who would've thought we would grow to become adversaries
Out friendship didn't last
Maybe because we grew too fast
I guess the past is the past
Not in your eyes...

DID YOU SAY RESURRECTION OR ********?

Pardon me Mister Sinister Minister
But you are not so much teaching as you are screeching and reaching
While preaching to the choir about brimstone and fire
As I deem you a damnable liar
And a prodigal prostitute who should be destitute
While I remain...

it's really not bad at all, it seems false advertising is the only way i get any numbers despite the fact that i write the truth so well:

Like a hungry vampire, pursues me loneliness 
Scarier than sharp canines for me human phoniness
I feel myself a tired beast in the jungle
Which life has driven into a blind angle
But   is calling ahead brutal struggle
Who knows  - if  will find me...

I guess I'm not important.
I guess I'm not that great.
Some people say I'm wonderful,
I look at them with hate.

I try really hard to believe them,
But their true colors always shine.
One minute I am fantastic,
The next minute they are blind.

They are blind to all my goodness,
My...

You asked 
about the world, 
 I see it...
all these years, 
you don't know me 
I hold my tongue, 
afraid  
if  answered  
safe but not sound...

 My eyes, the world is 
 for good and evil. 

Without day, 
there is no night....

I am not who you think I am
you don't know me at all
I am who I pretend to be
to get you to trust me
and gain your respect and love
I am not genuine or sincere
I have no goodness inside
I am lost, lonely and afraid
Just like the...

I walk on the edge of unacceptabilities
Experimenting with the bizarre my norm,
And I enjoy flouting the accepted form
Insulting the more refined sensibilities.

I am the product of inquisitive thinking
Gleefully stepping outside the box,
While the conventional laughs and mocks
As its fragile self-esteem is slowing sinking.

Yes, my lifestyle...

Do I trust them and show them my phoniness,

Or trust no one and live in loneliness,

I can’t hold on,

There’s too much pain,

With thoughts of suicide in my brain,

Confusing my every action,

I wish it were a simple chore to face my demons,

One man shouldn’t be alone,

Should...

Hey, I’m Over Here!

Hey!  I’m over here!
‘Case you were wondering if I was okay, I am.
I have no friends now so no one is checking up on me,
And I’m fine with not having friends anymore;
They’re all dead now, or there is a great distance,
A...

There's a darkness in me I've faced, chased, and sought erased. I've watched it grow and I've watched it shrink and it gave me time to think. This darkness exists purely of my own volition and I've given it voice and a mission. When I...

For Reymond Cruz

So Smooth.
So Fly.
A voice as smooth as the caramel of his skin.
His debonair style, groomed to perfection, makes anyone look good standing 
next to him. 
His knowledge of this legendary, few doubts filtering through his mind.
A vulnerableness deeply hidden in eyes that take...
