Best Predacious Poems


Premium Member Peacocks and Predators
The raptor and the peacock hence,
Sit pensive on a rambling fence.
The first, inclined to be the host,
Jumped down to claim the nearest post.
The pea averse to snubs or quailing
Moves closer on the weathered railing.

Both immersed in trailing thoughts
Mused on nigh, and what was naught.
The Pea...

Winter


Black cloud enshroud blue horizon while migrating birds tweet their last goodbye

Arctic winds weigh down bare naked branches watching blinding storms streak by

Above forsaken lodge tower sequoias like sentinels safeguarding an empty citadel

Hungry bison scrapes damp earth for green grass then uncovers a nourishing well




Immaculate...

A Wonky Monkey
There once was a poet who screeched like a monkey
Belligerent cuss and stubborn as a donkey
Was quite disputatious
Boringly vexatious
In fact, I'd be inclined to label him a bit wonky

Others have mentioned he's much too bodacious
Unyielding when he's wrong, gruffly tenacious
Liked to spit and spatter
Madder than...

Fossilitis Ignoratious
If your ego is capacious
Or your appetite voracious
For a plucky, pertinacious
Confidence in cherished creeds,
Then your genius, though sagacious,
Conjures arguments audacious
Never seeing they’re fallacious:
Truth be told, you’re in the weeds.

Your disease: a contumacious
Predilection for tenacious
Relics of the late Cretaceous
Buried deep within your soul.
Now the clash of...

The Hairy Tick
Of all the critters men have cursed,
The hateful hairy tick is worst.
His charm conceals a crudest quest
To snag you in his noxious nest.

Beware his lure! Don’t cross that line!
His bite will blight your nimble mind!
Once fooled, your failed defense will flee:
You’ll be as false and...

Copyrights....
Predacious paralogisms of parodies

Pantheans pantomiming

Their self indulgent songs....

Piping their illusions from realities

While the world crumbles about their feet

These axioms of paracymenes souls

Prophesied, from the prophets times

Copyrights....

Fulfilling their tales told

These fallacies of fathoms fantasies

Delusioned dreams, of grandeurs scenes

While portraying....

The pretties of something else?

These wisdoms, within a...

Less Is More
If you don’t want much…
Than a little is a lot
Possessions can own you
Heart and soul

To most they’re a crutch
Needed likely as not
Yet are just another onus upon you
And they play a greedy role

For the more you want
The more you need
Pride a predacious  creature
And once...

Cascade
Life's but a tired merchant,
devoid of all but the most barren, cracked wares,
peace is but a carrot on a stick,
in lands where poisonous, gaseous winds,
fly frightfully above the barren sands,

And the taps spout burning plumes of gas,
roaring, rushing gusts of fire and ash,
whistling the war...

Children of the Forest
one tear is not enough 
to express how life is tough
I have gone with the flow
but am sad taking the blow.

Lying on pine cones I will fall sleep
Desperate and tired, thus I weep
No one to share my book of fears
If only I had someone’s pair...

Earthling Bewails Hoovering World Wide Dread
Accursed human species
case in point Vladimir Putin,
who strikes terror across globe.

Don't underestimate his hell bent
zeal to attack United States,
one blood sucking infernal
predacious *****sapien
mercilessly bullies, interrogates, 
threatens... with zeal.

Considerably less mortifying
constitutes wrathful ordeals
exhibited by adults who treat
thine wife with indecorous jibes
like punks who sat back...

After wishing upon a star
to garner a handsome windfall
as a positive fated birthday gift
lo and behold, these ears didn't deceive me,
cuz I discerned a partial telephone message
hinting at word winnings to good to be true.

I (a sheepish fellow) nearly got fleeced...
to the tune...

Premium Member Pave the Adirondacks
They told me, "Leave Brooklyn, find the green,"  
"Head upstate, change the scene,"  
Nature's arms open wide,  
So I took that long Amtrak ride.

I knew there were bobcats, I knew there was bear
So I took my pit-bull Chewbacca, any bear would beware

Worth
Blatant entities afford,
not mine - not thine, some over lord,
without refine, without explore,
predacious, not of Heaven's ford.

Entwines around my mind as scored,
while thee in distance lose restored
of my own being - overboard
wth worry, tarried with remorse.

Collateral's true worth is force,
of God's own will in its...

After President Joe Robinette Biden Junior withdrew from the presidential race
After President Joe Robinette Biden Junior withdrew from the presidential race...

Planet earth (the Mother of all)
breathed a collective
and palpable sigh of relief,
and I too deeply exhaled,
a foregone conclusion staved off
today July 21st, 2024,
whereat the audacious,
contumacious, discracious,
hellacious, marlacious, mendacious,
predacious, pugnacious,

salacious, ungracious,
voracious elephant
furiously stomping around the room
seems...
