Best Reputation Poems

We're angry!  What sports fan can blame us?

There hasn't been one loss for Jameis

     But off-the-field ruckus

     Makes sportscasters muck us

Once famous, now Jameis just shames us






*Written about former FSU quarterback Jameis Winston's run ins with...

Character is by far
An important part of who we are.
More important than
Your reputation can
Ever be.
But you see,
Some others would say I'm wrong,
And say that my song
Is a heap of lies,
But I'll always ignore their cries,
And stand by my words
As I soar with the birds.
So work...

Okay, I'm back to this innocent old dude
My reputation was in danger of being poopooed
I'm an okay Jack
Back on track
But can't promise I won't be once again crude

Wow, a 2nd camping trip,
Now please don’t flip,
How on earth did I agree,
After the snake and me,
My husband asked so nicely,
And explained precisely
Where we would go,
Not to the bush,
Where a snake lay in ambush!
So hitched up our boat,
To take to Loskop dam 
It was the...

Labeled grumpy old feline;
Still beauty is found.

What is a reputation?
What meaning does this word hold?
Seems a fickle, intangible thing.
Changes, as I fashion my mould.
Shifting sand serving foundation.
Island mansion housing past sin.
Life sentence of judgment.
A battle designed not to win.
Built on other people's judgement. 
Erroneous and fallible, they may be.
Nobody can truly...

What is acquired gradually
Can be Lost so easily

It can be carefully cultivated
Becoming swaddled with flam
Precision engineered
Where everything goes to plan
Sugar covered and baseless underneath
Your retinue expands
The web of knowledgeable deceit you weave
Makes life sweet and you see no defeat

The wind of change
Can blow in as...

The victims' blood is violently splattered,
As his reputation is totally shattered.
Sycophants to the hills have all scattered,

I do so enjoy it when my reputation precedes me.
The humbling jest of it all seems to feed me.
I need not worry about delivering much,
My history gives little evidence of such.
If there’s a chance that I’ll be late…
Then figure that I will.
If I’m not, then...

 Reputation
I marveled the emeritus recognition
I felt compelled to sniff the reputations
Somewhat louder than the tradition
I crave the silent, staple self-respect
My tribute, I could not awaken
I crave the conventional, Confucians credo
A notorious celebrity - that notorious celebrity
Somewhat louder than the libido
I crave the ancestry, acclaimed...
