Best Pontification Poems


Premium Member Repulsive Rays

Get ready cause here is the next pontification
In regards to my said, beloved’s infatuation
Hear me thee, here do be, the truth of the situation
Which once was the source of said aggravation
After having arrived at many carnal rotations
Yet to me this was more than just merely fornication
Unless it is just about you and your manipulation
Telling me that there was never a foundation
That it was all about the sexual sensation
Confusing are your words in there translation
 They were your words of emotional declaration
Saying, that they are your truthful and honest proclamation
That we were was then had been your chosen words of articulation
Did they not bare as authentic in authentication?
Yet, I would never take advantage of your inebriation
You had already been thru enough of that brutalization
Though we both do know, we do have difficulty in communication
Though to me, it is just temporary blocks of frequency channelization
Amplified by the vodka laced with fruit juice for your gestation
This does be the biggest and truest reason for our causation
And the reason being for my excommunication?
If this does draw me as the fool in this poetic explanation
Then paint me as the man who holds much inner vexation
As we come here now to this thee summation
Because I still feel this be your true vibration
You are truly good enough and worthy enough for a higher lofty elevation

Watch me wail, wag, and whimper,
as I lag, lumber and limber, 
my adult algebraic ass umption of 
love lorn lustful, 
pussy prison promise
fake, Falk, filters
when married daughter
becomes married mother, and OMFG
whatTFdidIgetmyselfinto 
Low behold and singlefold
did I not gender gather your life
long life presence of parental 
pontification that goes without
sooth saying and add up the numbers
so I can fill the male bill of plenty and request
a not/known knowing of a pre determined
prowess bliss saturnine, coital countered
cock tailed by a mean mom mesmerized miracle
of anointed via viscious ugly
uncountered societal socio so 
somnablance satial sickness. 
Leave me to the beaver, and the
outer limits of my twilight zone, so I can
rifleman my bonanza to a naked city
where it takes a thief to enable
Burkes Law to Mod Squad a Perry Mason, then Ironside 
a manner of justice, sometimes relying on
an alternative form from Super M to Spider M,
and Hulk, then hashtag from A to Z and all letters
in between. As a man and a father with only earthy talents
I gave all that I knew, could harness, muster, and deliver as best as I knew how. 
Criticize me my sons, for all what u will
as I tried my best to keep u in my still
u r the future of what is to remain
all that I have, is now yours to gain, 
Rememberance is constant and our lives relate
in us all as we move forword and procreate
in keeping us in toll. Lifelines are the key to
all that is mindful and longevity unlocks
the male mantle of forever. Live long and prosper 
my sons and in all things look, listen and remember.

Once Upon An Under Edited Mid-Life Crisis

Once upon an under edited and somewhat jaded, 
female’s mid-life crisis
she sat down to contemplate the options of all her
“age appropriate” vices’

“Debauchery deficient”, “depravity bereft”,she 
was "tragically prosaic”.
sadly ending her self-indulgent deprecation 
with,“pitifully archaic”
 
Upon further diagnosis and self
evaluation, she concluded 
she had neither mid-life crisis nor deficiency, 
but was brazenly deluded!

Severe results of this delusion; 
insomnia induced proliferation:
this excessively verbose and heinously, 
superfluous pontification!

Premium Member Confrontation

Here you stand accused of intimidation, degradation and defamation
Daily depreciation, mental extirpation exploitation and pontification
Demoralization, cutting down people short of castration or amputation
Being a ruthless purveyor of humiliation, frustration and devastation

We gave you undivided attention, dedication, devotion and ovation
What more did you want from us, a coronation? You’re an abomination
What possible justification for abuse equivalent to molestation
Is it any wonder out in the world, there’s daily confrontation and assassination

You left us nothing more than palpitation, indignation and now vociferation
Rightfully demanding an investigation resulting in sensitization, a little edification
We have ambitions of a civilization where thrives admiration and appreciation
A combination of inspiration, aspiration, dedication and compensation

Accismus

Fake indifference
Strength from within
Let the ******** begin
Feigning ignorance
Pretend happy circumstance
Did you plan this? Was it your intent?

All you are is a plastic apparatus
Philosophunculist
You invent  - drastic fiction
Completely spent
Of all sense – covered in dents
Your rent will not - stop your eviction

Delve in a cesspool of thoughts

Awaken! Panticulation!
Meretricious offense
Wild and  vagarious
Outrageous Hindrance!
Deliverance
Auspicious pontification
Kills me

Premium Member Society - Me ****

Society – me ****


Society, the straight jacket of “socially” acceptable mores,
condemning all to a “one size fits all living coffin.
Social “mores”, cultural cudgels of “independent thought”,
ballyhooing the wonders of our differences
until Society’s sycophancy rears its head in obsequious disapproval.
Societal “Class Warfare” – High Society gazing at the “Waterfront”,
the homeless wrestling the wharf rats for scraps.
Secular secessionists worshiping the gods of political pontification
while the poor listen to the rumble of empty bellies
the elected intelligentsia nudge each other at the trough.

Anthem For Doomed Youth

Let’s hear three cheers for the decade of disinfectant!
Clean out your insides with cheap vodka!
Blow your brains out with Nirvana!
Your breath reeking of teen spirits,

Does weed count as a vegetable?

You’re getting your five a day,
Candyman on the corner
Selling sweets for afters,

Don’t forget the medicine cabinet buffet,

Your mother’s migraine pills,
And faded Ritalin packets,
From the good old days,

We are the children,
Of the Children of the Revolution,

The Harbingers of Revulsion,
And the Standard Bearers of Revolvers,
Desperate for you to know how much we don’t care,

Something’s wearing secret holes inside us,

Nuclear fallout?
The brainfry radiation from our phones?
A big ass moth chewing at our soul fabric,

Fill them up with whatever’s close to hand,
Smoke and smut and other people’s bodies,

There’s a virus swimming in our systems,

Pump it full of alcohol,
Drink it, drown it, bleed it out,
A stolen bottle of Jacks and a bargain basement penknife,
That oughta do the trick,

Living for the weekend,
Cheap thrills and easy kicks,
How’s that for a creed to live and die by,

We are the future,

Headmasters and Principles of the world join forces,
And spread the good word,
Patrons of pontification,
They preach to us about keeping America united,
And Britain great,

Well hold ‘em high!

Put your hands in the air like ya just don’t care!
We’ll return the favour and pump the lot of them full of pills
Of the plumbum variety,

That’ll edu-ma-cate ‘em.
That’ll learn ‘em good and proper!

We don’t like Mondays.

Skeight of Hand

The shell game moves with lightning speed

Fueled by deceit and endless greed

On and on the pundits roll

Pontification seems to be the rule

No adhesion do we see

As they fracture us into bickering fools

While we’re on our knees they steal our tools

Aren’t you tired of your furtive glance?

Joining together our only chance

Shame on you and shame on me

This wearisome attitude on bended knee

I don’t know the answer what can I say

Frightening thought neither do they?

Premium Member A Colossus Part 2dedicated To All Who Served and All Who Are Serving Our Country

Take care of her 
Keeping toes and ties off the ground
Beware of those with savage intent
To draw her down
Beware those of quisling heart
Who seek only to pillage then plunder her 
All those faces leering, cajoling, jeering then cheering
Distant recollections surface
Unwinding their purpose
A catalogue of misadventure 
THEIR venom put upon YOU
As they race towards their judgmental conclusions
Rabid and acrid
Hypocritical bigotisms abound
Calling a DIAMOND, when a spade is just a spade.
Cathartic embolisms hold ears to ground
THIS wins NO points
Brings NO praise
Wears NO crown
The caterwauling of corruption
Casting dispersions, then claiming coercion 
An aberration distilled down to its basest most repugnant desires
Wanton ADORATION to feed that nepotistic idolatry
The equivocation, The skullduggery
The pettifoggery, the subterfuge,
The pontification, The verascification 
Dealt to all in attendance.
With all its scheming, and shifting and sideways leaning
The chicanery of blackest soul
Whose demarcation is bound by and to, those most easily bled,  those most easily misled.
The ebb and flow of the waves coming and going
As they plead and pine
Quickly now, retreating

A slender pole with simple cord, is slowly dressed in 
Her Red White and Blue
A bit tattered
A bit torn
Threadbare and Worn 
Holds a message of SACRIFICE , of DUTY, of HONOR
OF HER TRUTHS PROMISED.
HER emancipated can bare no more system wide degradations. 
The indignities cast upon her by those who hold the keys to HER hallowed halls, TIGHT to their chests
Allowing NOT 
The promise of a justice blind, impartial, dealt with even hand over all her land.
We pledge to HER our loyalty, not one man
We pledge to HER as ONE country United beneath her splendor
 A PLEDGE of Love for her and to one another.

A Leading Man

the lonely plight  
of a dissident man 

a single lucent light fueled in the night
so flows pontification and foresight

the crowd it incites
a mass devoted to their leaders spite

the light of one 
the spark of another

forming the glow 
of a stagnant umbra 

this path of no resistance
is the wicked path at our insistence

it Juggles through the past
navigates the lost

untwists the fray
it is the sound that will not settle

a growl of medal 
a clink and a rattle 

the sound of chain
that engraves a pain

the gun on your temple with a pulled trigger
rush of blood in you ears, that's fear

a stab with a twist of knifed redemption
the next stick leads to your suffocation 

now you understand how easily we shatter 
our disappearance so final a matter

gods spell is knocking
loyal, dead and forgiving

the answer is a doorbell
unfeigned by heaven or hell

we abide times insight 
waiting for a green light 

a moment of enchantment
one final choice to exit 

the one last chance 
destined for happenstance  

as the rattlesnake stance
warns and demands  

ruling their charmer
into an alliance 

the masses expand
for the malice at hand 

arousing a jump in the fire 
as the mob grows vulgar 

alarming numbers
fall in shoulder to shoulder 

follow the flock 
a parade in sync 

the fall of one 
the march of another 

until we no longer struggle

Forked Tongues

Not lying outright
is far from the truth
Hesitance vacuous
barren of fruit

What never gets said
deceitfulness hides
Stalking and preying
while buried inside

The pulpit a soapbox
 lectern a mask
Pontification
deceptions bombast

Wittingly fervent
the devil subverts
False implication
—the ultimate hurt

Sententiousness I seriously cannot bear
I cannot abide po-faced pontification
Faced with which I  want to pull out my hair
Being  more at home in  a festive occasion.

Flee the pessimism of the puritan's pulpit
There is  more merriment found  in carpe diem
 When Falstaffian rogues  with us carousing  sit.
Send  cold   gravity to its chilling  requiem

If you were  given the news  your end were nigh
No Cromwell roundhead,more  cavalier Dartagnan
What better way to go,do you think,,laugh or cry?
Give me  every  day a mirthful companion.

So haste ye away,you gloomy  prophets of doom
And allow  us imbibe   in a jovial room

Poisoning the Well

We turn a deaf ear
as they live with the pain
of those who we cancel
with biting disdain

Unable to rise
above selfish intent
with opioid bias
our progeny bent

Pontification
colors the flow
young ears once thought distant
to reap what we sow

The world as we leave it
our tracks in the sand
forever to haunt us
—as children disband
