Best Roach Poems

Well, I've been in jail since Juvember,
And I've pulled thru Maynever,
And now it's past September,
And I wonder if I'll ever,
Get out of here,

Yea, this place sure would be lonely,
If it wasn't for my pet,
And he sure is real homely,
But still, my love he'll get,

He sleeps...

Through and after
A nuclear blast
We'll still be around
Eating crap

Fear of light
Perserves out fate
Were hidden between cracks
In the darkest of place

Persnickety eaters
Surely not
We'll eat our own dead
Just merely for a snack

We will still be around
Long after you're gone
Eluding light
And eating crap...

Scrambling across my basin sink

               What is it that you must think.

               Of this unnatural habitat

Kitchen lights turn on ...
The creepy, crawly cockroach
into darkness runs....

day and night Blattaria of various shapes and sizes 
scuttle with incandescent 
   after glow as flashing blur rises
to fill every quarter of mine cerebral core, when asleep pries
me lids awake with shell shocked horror consumed as curse 
   more heinous...

Menacingly you look like you want to attack,
As I watch you crawling for that late night snack.
Antennas are searching for my next movement.
You're staring at me like I'm your amusement.
I move to the left, then try to move to the right.
You step towards me and...

Ralph the roach
Is of a devilish kind
He will forever encroach
Upon all that he finds

He will sample your food
When you're not aware
He will think you rude 
If you don't want to share

He loves to sneak around 
Surprise is his favorite game
He won't make a sound
To scare...

North for the fields of corn grow and many feasts cleaning dirty skin in the white river bath they laugh they cry slaughtered like sheep in blind carnage they die.

East rain of slime beckons my wall of no emotion many flies to feed many yellow...

Encroached By A Roach

Encroached by a roach
Those insects which we do dread,
Who we wish were dead.  

Jim Horn

Roach with piston which will cock,
To me sounds like a bunch of crock....

Scuttle scurry
Roaches
Askidaddle to the 
Left
Skidaddle to the 
Right.
Furious feets 
Propelling  
Gripping zip
Zero escape
Because 
Feee-fi-fo-yum
A roach soon will
Roast

The dead roach with its upended crinkly legs
has been lying in the windowsill for at least four weeks.
I would get rid of it, except...
nothing has amused me for years half as much
as people's horrified reactions when they notice her.
This poor ugly black dead thing.
I have...

Am I your rose,
Or your roach? 
You assure me i’m the rose,
But how can I tell for myself,
I wished I could see inside your pretty skull,
See the flowers of thoughts growing there,
Some made from seeds of envy and hate,
Some from seeds of the most delicate...

You deleted it!
Why?	
I am getting closed to you
Till we face each other
I hope I have the dang to share that lovely meet with.
Why you run like a ROACH?
I just want to make things clear ;)...

(This is a fictional poem)

Last week I tried to get out of paying for a meal.
But when it backfired, I became quite ill.
I put a dead roach in the plate right after the waiter brought the food.
It would've been better if I had put the...

Trump Wore Broach With Roach

Trump as President around would pouch,
And when he did saw him wear a broach;
Also termite,
Full of spite,
Which would contain silhouette of a roach.

Beto O'Rourke just said this on the news....
