Best Scratching Poems
Police Scratching Head
Through the glass I spied an old man
And he’s reading his text
With no care and I’m vexed
A long letter...what’s next?
Origami folds into fan…

Scratching At My Soul
It had to be a dream
But so, so real
It did seem
And it did feel
Like everything in sight
Had it's own appeal
Oh how bright
Was the black
Of the night
Then the attack
From all around
Front and back
Unbelievable was the sound
Of pain's own cry
Even through the ground
Fight or fly
No! run and hide
Stay and die
Not hard to decide
It seems to be everywhere
Escape...

Scratching Fanny in Cock Lane, a true tale
The year1762 a tale of murder or mystery they boast
A teenage girl, drunken parish clerk, and maybe even a ghost
About hordes of aristocrats and wealthy men assembling
Crowds rivalling Covent Garden, Theatres were now descending
To a house near St Paul’s on a road named Cock Lane
Although three stories high only one room on each...

You'Ll Be Scratching Your Head When You Read This
All the students were very aware
There were nits crawling in her long hair
Perching on the next seat
Trying to be discrete
I got itchy and had to move chair
based on a real event
10th November 2015...

Brain Scratching 101
Have you ever had a major itch
Deep inside your brain
Where your whole face does a Chubby Checkers twist
Driving you erratically down crazy lane
You need to find that special something
To cram far enough up your nose
And if you can't get to it that way
There's that hole just above the earlobe
I search around my place frantically...

Upside Down Scratching My Head
Fact of every day life, is in all one thought process
everything you hear, is about wars killing
spending multi-millions on weaponary
to then create suffering little children
Crying poor, in their mothers and fathers arms
thrown to the wolves,they who are defenceless
meek and humble innocent people cry in our shame
Rather than spend a lot less...

If It Bleeds After Scratching It
If It Bleeds After Scratching It
If it bleeds after scratching it, then you went too far.
I see a parade of dead people walking by me in this old dream.
They are eating bananas and I recognize their faces as friends,
I hear their familiar voices, and I wish I can talk to them again.
Then, as if a...

Clawing, Scratching, Screaming
Clawing, scratching, screaming
A heart's endless scheming
Can you hear me? No!
Can you feel me? No more!
Do you see the pain drip from my eyes to the floor?
Remember my taste?
Oh what a waste.
I can't un-remember anymore.
Look to my hands, see their desire;
Choking out words to quell their fire.
Nails dig in and drag
Breaking a cracker's crack!
You never looked...

Scratching Baxter
When I left he was in his lounging chair
TV way too loud
The glow of discontent on his face
Made me want to cry
The only peace now in his life
Never left his side
He sat there scratching Baxter
Life just passed him by
In his day he was the man every man wanted to be
He had the looks,...

The Cat
The Cat
??Licking, Licking?
Grooming himself
?Licking licking
?Scratching himself
?Licking licking?
Pampering himself
?Licking, Licking
?Biting Himself?
Yeah, How Gorgeous!?
All curled Up?
On the purple velvety mink blanket...

German Shepherds Curse
The battle starts everyday
His itch will not go away
Scratch and scratch is all he does
I yell to stop from above
Itching and biting evermore
Skin covered in sores
Itching continuously grows
When it stops nobody knows
As I wish it to stop
Redness, allergies, and hot spots
Going, going, non-stop
Trying to reach the itch up top
Off to the vet we go
Hoping to...
