Best Rednecks Poems


You Are the Eyes of the World

You, poet, poetess...
ARE THE EYES OF THE WORLD!

Now that I've got your attention... let's sail to avenues where few too many 
cooks infuse attitutudes, burn britches in the kitchen.
Let us wave banners and quake fault lines of the masses, generate public 
interest bigger than entering contests, so the future wins as we arrest eye 
sights of their asses.
 
We've got something special in here; everyone sharing and caring and staring 
at screens like queens stare in the mirror. Hey, I've got an idea dear, rather 
it's more like a scattered ideal, real rednecks call "Idears, ya' hear!" 

So put down yir' sweet tea, turn off Duck Dynasty and come fly with me. 
We've got a whole generation of people sleeping through myriads of poetic 
songs. I contest we kick 'em in the ass with something true, something 
strong. 

We've got a beautiful community begging to be read. But right now, the only 
ones reading are those who should be writing instead.

We need to reach out, feed the needy, there's so much to teach. We are at 
the beginning of something huge, but I need YOU to see there's a universe to 
reach.

Look in the mirror, understand where you stand...
---------------
Note...
This stage could be HUGE!!! Poets are the last line of defense. But, here we 
are limiting our song, SARDINES IN THE TIN. 
We must think bigger, and 
generate vibrations for the whole world to see. 
Poetry is so much more than a club.

WE ARE THE EYES OF THE WORLD! 

There is no communication more true than this....what we live, what we give, 
what we do--- It's up to me and you!

I, Icon

They spied me in the sky, dropping bombs of love
on Ferguson, and bitchy women's  rooms; and rednecks' 
shooting range was next, the blooded boxing glove.

They spotted me in Tel-aviv and also in Tehran, collecting
Jewish kisses for the Iranian Imam.

They toasted me in the family courts, breaking hearts
I quickly soothed, and at their breakfast;Klu Klux Klan, 
I spread their toast with jam.

They gifted me with patted back in Auschwitz and 
Guantanamo, compassion was my hand; while Isis 
and Seal Team 6, provided me a marching band.

They lauded me with accolades, the bankers and the poor,
while serial killers and the FBI, shot my name  into the sky,
like Gotham on the screen.

And now I rest my head this night, beneath the troubled moon,
for tomorrow I go partying, with venerable, Ban-Ki-moon

Premium Member A Redneck Vacation

~When retired Redneck take a vacation,
   Needs not AARP’s senior discounts,
   Motel tarpaulin costs are his passion,
   A Redneck needs not large bank cash amounts.

~Give him some worms that squirm and North Fork Creek,
   With wilderness trees, he’s very well pleased,
   I’m Redneck quite sleek , have my own technique, 
   Head where wildlife frees, in mountain air breeze.

~My food still on hoof, venison is great,
   There’s fish a plenty, may ride my Jenny,
   Don’t need a debate, I’ll call my love Kate,
   She’ll rough it with me, loves to fish you-see,

~Get Jenny some grain, I’ll clip her long mane,
   City dudes are vain, drives Rednecks insane!

Premium Member Nit Picks and Picnics

~~Upon the banks of big piney slough,
   I recall a picnic with old blue,
   and my granddaughter at age two.
   and many blood sucking critters too.

~For a very short while we did picnic,
   then we would bait our hooks and pick ticks. 
   while the ants carried our food off in nit picks.
   Gets no better than this, can’t beat it with sticks!

~Mosquitoes demanded their rightful share,
   for of the blood of we humans they are an heir.
   Some dudes have no flair for this type of affair,
   after a day or two they would need repair.

~Moms who let babies grow up to be rednecks,
   raise children who can fish and pick blood ticks,
   and kill big water moccasins with little sticks,
   while picking polk salet for supper on picnics.

~Having caught a big flathead cat or two,
   I called granddaughter Sue and my dog blue,
   for I remember quit clearly when Sue was new,
   was the dog days of summer, ninety two!

More Than One

Quizmasters often test mentalities, 

by asking folks to name pluralities, 

of things of many different sorts.

Like, soldiers might be called 'cohorts'.

There are 'flights' of geese and jets and stairs,
 
my socks are sometimes found in 'pairs'.

A young girl's curls could hang in 'bangs',
 
and crooks might hang about in 'gangs'.

Such gangs could join to form a 'mafia',
 
alas that only rhymes with 'raffia'.

Apes, as you'd know, can make a 'shrewdness',

could rednecks joined become a 'rudeness'?
 
And though Collingwood fans are two a penny,
 
more than one is just 'Too Bloody Many'.

Unless you have been in the same pub or football ground with Collingwood fans, or on the same train or tram or continent, you will never understand.

Donald Trump

Donald Trump
is now most concerned he's been had for a chump
don't lead too soon they say
else most of the rednecks are more likely to stay away.

Premium Member Horsepower Makes Us Proud

Rednecks make parts in the basement 
They've mastered piston emplacement
They'll bore out a block
To be bigger than stock
Displacement has no replacement

Author's note.  A really great guy in the office has a classic '67 Firebird
that will go really fast and has fun taking it to car shows in the area.
This is part of American culture. Yahoooo!

Premium Member This Is Planet Earth

Through the stratosphere
Flying where no one dares
Searching in spite of fear
Wonderful little blue sphere

Creatures strange beings
Atmosphere unclean
So many wondrous things
Collecting images unseen

Moving at sonic speed
Trying to discover needs
A medal for exploring deeds
Fame becomes his greed

Within a flash
He suddenly crashed
Saucer reduce to trash
His head slams into the dash

Billy Bob and Big Bubba saw the flash
Get out of the pickup to look at the crash
Think pictures would get us cash?
Lets burn it up don't want no city trash

This is planet Earth
Burial of Major Dirth
Images for planet Mirth
Never to be unearth

Flames burn high and green
Two rednecks pour on gasoline
Funny and just serene
How Earth remains an alien dream.

Premium Member Had It Ar-15

Had It


I have a ten foot hole in my floor
Sofa, carpet, hard wood, tile no more
My neighbors both own an AR-15
And I live in between
It might be their Second Amendment right,
But what happens to me when they fight
Into that hole and duck my head
Or surely I will end up dead
When 750 rounds a minute comes from each side
All I can do is lie in my hole and hide
My home is full of holes when they’re done
The politicians say it was just a couple Rednecks having fun
I’m fed up and have had my fill
For it’s with life, limb, or money that pays the bill
Not the White House or the NRA
But me, so Idiots with AR-15s can play
Second Amendment or not 
Killing kids needs to stop

Premium Member Girls' Night Out

It was "Girls' Night Out"
At the local watering hole
So my bestie and me
Headed there at a stroll.

A crisp autumn night
And we both wore our furs
I joked she was a copycat
Saying she should change hers.

She stopped in her tracks
Her stare cut like a sword!
"It was only a joke!"
And then we both roared!

We got to the bar
And I held the door wide
Truly never expecting
What was to happen inside.

"We don't serve HER kind"
The barkeep sneered at me
"You can come in
But set that dog of yours free!"

Here I must tell you
I live in a town
With rednecks and pickups
And nothing much brown.

My friend was from Asia
Her coloring too strange
For these bigoted, brainless
Rejects from the grange!

My friend showed her teeth
Not exactly a grin
And one big guy in a wife beater
Stood up and moved in.

Before I could blink
Or throw a good punch
My friend ate that cowboy
Like some tasteless lunch!

And the others raced out
Slipping on fallen beer foam
So I sighed and began calmly
Walking my tiger home.

Redneck Easter

I went and bought me some rabbits,
And built a rabbit coop.
Like that Cadbury Bunny has,
‘Cept I got me a group!

And they all’s gonna lay some eggs,
With nice milk chocolate shells!
But they won’t be no coco brown,
‘Cause I prefer pastels!

So I’m gonna feed them Fruit Loops,
And that should do the trick!
They’ll be poppin' out rainbow eggs,
I’m thinkin', pretty quick!

Then I’ll get rich like Cadbury,
And buy me a new truck!
Maybe breed all of them rabbits
With cousin Millie’s duck!

People’d sit up and take notice
Of a bunny that quacks!
They’d storm the Piggly Wiggly for
My multi-colored snacks!

We’ll have us a rainbow Easter,
With chocolate eggs and beer!
Drunk rednecks on a sugar rush,
Can really spread some cheer!

Buy some rainbow chocolate duck eggs,
Then turn on your TV!
There’s a new realty show,
Called Rab-uck Dynasty!

I should have thought of it sooner!
My problems are all solved!
Ain't nothing a redneck can’t do,
When there’s a duck involved!

Thair is this girl called : peace , love & pie . Her dad jumps out of aero planes .

Noeboddy noze why ! She wants 2 jump from aero planes too !

But if her parachute doent open, she wood be thrue !

Falling frum the sky ! Why thay pay him 4 this . Noe one noze why!...

No One Drop of Royal Blood

No one drop
of royal blood
in my genes

funny,isn't it

i know
my grandparents
were farmers
my grand-grands
fishermen
my grand-grand-grands
were just soldiers
fighting for king
and queen
they died
nobody knows when
they died 
nobody knows how
the only thing 
i know for sure
my parents were
rednecks
which makes me
ultimately
a poor redneck-poet
that all he want
is sing
no one drop of royal blood
no chance to be
a king
and doesn't give a rip
about it!

Rednecks and Roundabouts

Rednecks and roundabouts, they don't mix.
Don't try and fool us with your media tricks.
We drive around the back roads throwing bottles at signs.
Your roundabouts make us slow down or the ladies spill their wine
