Best Rought Poems
S ilence sometimes brings satisfaction
O ccasionally, time for thought.
L uxuriousness~calm distraction
I nconsequential things become naught
T emptestuous seas level out
U nchoregraphed waltzes cease
D rought ended, spirit's presence sprouts
E thereal emotions come bring peace

We all look the same sitting on the toilet
We all look the same sitting in traffic
Nevertheless is nevertheless does
Just because you are on a diet doesn't mean you can't look at the Menu
100% of anything is junk
I am impatient with stupidity
Counter intuitive is counter productive
No one can make u feel inferior without your consent
There are too many people in the world
Wisdom is the practical application of knowledge
Evolution through revolution negating convolution
Some are mine, some are not,
but a cerebral cord, oh yes, they should rought
that full cranial awareness is still upward thinking,
but cranial farts of the masses are snot.
Get with the program get out of your head
and see life's counterparts not measured in dread.
Do something different, skip a life automatic
get off your ass u me and live life pragmatic.
Forego social domestication that has shaped our existenance
and reach beyond to a place of resistance
be who you want to be what you are to be,
and don't settle for less F, the powers at Be.
"Yes"
A rogue dentist called Frederick McCrouth
Brought misery to many a ones mouth
Caused his patients great pain
Done for profit and gain
Eventually their teeth all fell south.
Frederick's nickname was' dentist from hell'
Gold implants at a high price he would sell
He was caught in a trap
Is now up on a rap
Justice caught him and he's now in a cell.

A..ntoine was a selfish young man,
B..rought in a palace filled life,
C..hoose to live the hooligans life,
D..evoured by lust for more money,
E..ngaged in drugs sold for money,
F..ake identification to be drug lord,
G..uns were his way of being a drug lord,
H..ide from the police and his family,
I..ncluded himself with the mafia family,
J..uggled his way out of jail time,
K..illed afew men just to pass time,
L..aw were to be broken was his motto,
M..any men feared because of his motto,
N..ever had he been caught selling drugs,
O..nly has he been caught using drugs,
P..eople knew him as the kingpin,
Q..ueuing for drugs and loans from kingpin,
R..ival gangs wanted to kill him,
S..upported by the police just to kill time,
T..hreats circulated directed to Antoine,
U..nder the circular was the kingpin Antoine,
W..ithout hesitation a battle with the police,
E..xtreme gunfire that halted business the whole street,
Y..es,and then dead silence en-groped the street
Z..one was free for Antoine was dead
Joyous, scribing ballad
Underneath the moon
Starlight sprinkled lyric
Twilight's cosmic rune
Tending hearts romantic
Heaven's swirling shoals
Roiling objects skyward
Expanse, alighting souls
Each abiding wonder ...
Wrought amidst reprise
Omnipotent as thunder
Requited love's demise
Dazzling godlike plunder
Supernal yawning skies.

Brought by the Lord as grand answer to our prayer request
A sweet princess who reigned in your mother’s womb, so blest
Baby Sarah*, welcome to our home of love’s fullest
Your haven of bliss, shielded from pandemic’s pest.
Precious baby** princess, serenely jubilant
Really, you exude hope’s radiance, innocently elegant
Inspiring us, though in a quarantine, to stay triumphant
Nourished by the Lord’s grace, constantly abundant.
Cute family princess, keep growing with caring nurture
Expressed by opulent compassionate venture
Secured are you around kindness of gracious gesture
Settled to have a godly princess heart, devoid of pride’s posture.
(Acrostic in Rhyme)
*Genesis 17:15 And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. {Sarah: that is Princess}.
**This poem is supposed to be for the baby of a friend who gave birth to her first child on April 15, 2020 after two miscarriages. (I just learned later that the baby is a boy).

you left me here
to rought die and fear
and im falling even more
can't save me this time
no, not this time
like a drug, like a pill
it was fun at first
it wasn't real
but the side effects
have taught me well
i'm cold and alone
you left me in an abandoned home
but i found a match and some gas
now watch this place, turn to ash
don't feel any remorse
just like you
can't feel anymore
i hate you
like a drug, like a pill
it was fun at first
it wasn't real
but the side effects
have taught me well
leave me alone
go to hell
maybe i'll lay in the flames
while the smoke takes me away
maybe i'll breathe in carbon, instead of oxygen
and watch the world start to swirl
as my lungs start to swell
maybe i'll meet you in hell
like a drug, like a pill
it was fun at first
it wasn't real
but the side effects
have taught me well
leave me alone
go to hell
like a drug, like a pill
it was fun at first
it wasn't real
but the side effects
have taught me well

Your Poet-Sis ... MoonBee
L-et the rain fall from the sky,
I-n the land leaves are dry;
Z-ealously pray to the Lord,
A-sking Him as you cry.
D-ay eight in June morn
E-ndless blessings flow;
P-ure delight from above
I-s replacing your sorrow.
D-rought turns into grace,
E-ach leaf sways, birds fly;
P-lea and request you say, let the rain fall from the sky.
Brought to me this morning
Lighting up my day
Under wraps so warming
Everything to say
Bereft the night before
I missed the conversation
Returned to me once more
Delighted with elation
together we build
together climd that hill
its been
up and down
this is our town
so why fall apart
let rought
MAKE UP NOT
BREAKUP
Man has built the beast
Rought from blood and bone
sweat and tears of creation
man has built the engines that
feast on the body blood marrow
stars die as empires rises from the east
cold bathing all in holocaustic light
hollow inside covering
all in ashes, flesh and mascara
Horror!
Born to none the engines feast
mechanical heart thumping
slave to the engines beat
The singularity of one flesh and machine
Under a bloated red sun walking in silhouette
Fear coming from the East
as cruel Crimson tears flow
As the infernal engines humms
When the engines feast
Man has built the beast
bought in blood and bone
sweat and tears creation of one
man has built the engines
they feast on the body blood marrow
Valhalla starts to die as empires
rises from the east
When the engines feast
M-emorable fourteenth September
A-ims to make you real happy;
R-emembering your birthday
I-s equivalent to an ecstasy.
V-ersatile fourteenth September
I-s also a multifaceted morn;
C-hunks of mirth and fancy brought fun when you were born.
T-hrilling fourteenth September
A-ims to excite your heart;
J-oyful feelings and cheers
A-re not going to depart.
A-mount of gladness is
L-arge for everyone to hold;
C-omplete comfort comes
A-s the dawn warms the cold.
N-ever forget the occasion,
T-ry not to leave the big day;
A-ttend the special affair,
R-apture takes the night
A-way.
T-otal pleasure and delight
A-re all given to your life;
B-rought brightness to your mind
I-s keeping you safe from strife.
N-otable shining moment remains to be good reminder;
G-reeting you in remarkable and memorable fourteenth September.
