Best Presentable Poems

Self-control is the first lesson of life,
when learning to be presentable.

An alternate lifestyle 
will bring you grief,
but you are no different
in that respect.

All grieve.

Delete everything 
you should not have said
	or done.

There is a scream,
then nobody is there.

The machine shuts down
at the end.
Silence is the last...

We have 72 hours to make this place presentable or we've got nowhere to live. Or at least not here. 
He helps with nothing. I sit, disappointed-again. Over something he's done. Again. 

I wish I were her. Heroin. I wish he lied for me. ...

He stood 
Before the mirror of
His soul
Wishing to look at the 
Reflection of his
Inner self

In a little while, his 
Idol appeared:
Timid
Foggy 
Blurry 
Distorted
Not a pretty sight!

He knew
He had to meet his creator.
His days were numbered.
There was no time left for him to
polish the mirror,
To make...

Pop watched some of the Olympics with me last night. It
was the first time he had watched television

quite a bit. He said it

was more like track and he liked the...

Two days before the deadline.
Fingers flying frantically,
Condensing a lifetime’s achievement
In 500 words or less.  

Eyes are bloodshot from the long night, spent
Staring and scanning every line, every blip
With the careful precision of a surgeon.  

Secretly beautifying my faults 
Like an embalmer, decorating wounds,
To...

Muddy face band and tin-tin man breaking bad
Game of thrones, constants and variables
Contestants variant, variously able, paid under the table
Save it Larry, your speeches are not reliable
We see your Mr Cain, presentable, but is Cain able?

After what you did your reputation is wrecked
Big crowds but...

these brick bound boxes 
fill this equinox of smart headed people
of these independent achievable people
critical analysts of this 21 century 
ready to be presentable to the unmighty 
smaller population of antisocial teenage children
willing them to be

not to be free, but inside these brick bound boxes
that...

I was Called and I was "Chosen"
Can't believe I'm a "Poet"
But it's "Enjoying"
That's why I...

There, in the kitchen of this modest dwelling,
A cheerful room, in spite of its lack of grandness
Home to the little family
Who gathered together each evening
For string beans and mashed potatoes,
Eating with relish at the rectangle of oak
They recounted a day filled with stories
Of the playground...

And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty, but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part...

BEHAVIOR.
A  well  presentable  garment
Gets  rich  comments.
I  dress  to my  best
So  would  be  addressed  with
Respect.
Mirror  knows  only  your
Picture,
Can  never  see  once  nature.
Behavior  is  my ...

She would be queen, oh if indeed she could
   after all, she's been where others stood.
So in control of e-mail trolls
   she believes herself far better in the know.
The queenly rule is not just a presentable display
   as her...
