Best Shameless Poems

So many weep from pleasure or from pain
and raise their invocations to the sky.
I watch them from the corner of my eye.
Their exhibitions I would likely feign 
to match expression shown when masses cry.
My eyes, instead, might blur.  I gasp or sigh,
and sometimes I...

Shameless
She is humble, always courteous
Always smiling, always sweet
Such a lady, what a woman
Come what may, she stays discreet
Many a man will tell his lady
’That is how a wife should be
Unassuming, not demanding
Just obey, don’t disagree’
She is humble, and she’s quiet
She will never say too much
But...

Here they go again.
anything to win,
indulging
in shameless 
self-promotion.
layin’ it on thick, 
	makin’ sure it sticks,
		slappin’ it on like lotion.

“click my stuff,
and I’ll click yours too.
wanna feel like the best 
even though 
it ain’t true?”

back n’ forth complements
are so self defeating.
inflating other’s heads for praise 
is...

I remain shameless....

Curry. Cumin. Saffron.
Mmmm, the hallways always smell of spice,
her seventy-year-old body perfecting the rhythm of movement
from icebox to oven in her efficiency kitchenette.
Tangerine wall paint cracks and mixes carelessly 
with bits of spice yet lingering in the air; it
follows her, this aroma that eats the...

I rather die than just pass
away from boring days to fabled prayers,
I rather live my life today
as if I never cared.

I hope you understand my fears,
shattered for seven years,
in this plain of existence, 
I'm jeered.

I feel shards of niceties 
prick my skin, 
in most unfavored...

Shameless Suzy was swinging so high
she went almost straight up to the sky.
Right nearby her there stood
a new guy from the hood.
Up her skirt he was trying to spy.

Shameless Suzy surely was daring,
for she laughed and swang on not caring
when the guy called, "Hee hee,
for...

Abel, the armored lancer, was a shameless adulterer not able
to give up for an hour the company of beautiful Anabel;
" I'm allowed to court anyone! " he squeaked out aloud,
" Why must an adulteress be cursed, to me it's superstitious!
I prefer sensual Anabel! She never...

So you’re all probably thinking
that these winter months sure are dull,
and I bet that you are wishing
from something to break the lull.
What if I were to tell you
that it all can end right now,
that there’s a new book out there
That will make you all say,...

______ The Shameless Bird, perched high with glee,
Barks at the tree, as bold as can be.
I offered food for its family's delight,
Yet it barks at me, a curious sight.

Just like this bird, so shamelessly free,
Some people in life act quite similarly.
Ignoring kindness, they persist in...

Its wide mouth opens
As if it were serenading the night
And fallen upon the priceless womb,
But the pleasure through it
	Ought to be the beginning of a half-folded thought!...

Heat absorbs through the window but times have changed.
A cold, frightening breeze holds it's weight on the day.
Momentary worries fill your head as the curtains close in.
Reunited with evil isn't considered a sin....

so not ready to listen up
to words from up above
when all the christ life wants to do
is fill you up with love
you have to slow it down my friends
you're burning up your life
and then you wonder why it ends
in turmoil and strife... 
shame...

Temporal Dilettante Journalist 
David J Walker

no-thing need not name the nameless 
breaks the morning in disguise 
shakes the shame and wakes the shameless 
quench tormented turbid eyes 
the bootless errand realized 

who shakes the hand but shuns the banquet 
a polymath of nullity
a picnic spread...
