Best Shirks Poems
Panic In the Panic RoomAt last I was a fruitful writer, and my new novel was selling well,
Like the stars of a moonlit evening, putting lovers under a spell.
I had ever loved self expression, the power and beauty of words,
Like the beauty of marshmallow clouds, migrating skies in herds....

The SeekerTHE SEEKER
A weaving’s blending is spun within the soil of the discontent,
Legends are the roots of cultures, stories woven within the
Fabrics of societies, but the colors of truth reveal the shocking
Details of wrong deeds, justified in the name of Religion,
Even amongst those deemed as...

Good Morning LifeGood morning mister, of thy kindness to receive,
All groans of yester, thou does seem to reprieve,
With a promise to stir, tinges optimiste do contrive,
Pain’s sphincter lets laughter, it’s another reason to live.
Swaying pyjamas on sling, the autopsy right begins,
Stayed on the bed is a rolling,...

Where Does Santa Go After ChristmasDo you ever wonder where Santa goes after Christmas?
When Christmas is finally over, do you wonder where Santa does go?
More important, should I tell you? As it is a secret, you know!
He goes to somewhere, it is hot, I really do kid you not.

Stroud SoldiersAnd they came home battered, bruised,some we had to carry, unlike other armies ,we don’t shoot our wounded
We give them fresh water, tend their wounds,, sustenance to mend their soul and nourishment for what ails.
They come back from the front lines at all hours and...

For My SisterI see a Santa Fe upon its rail;
It deviates not to the left nor right,
Nor hills, nor miles, nor weather can prevail
Upon its constant task come day or night.
I see a Christian running the long race
Who never shirks the hard work to be...

Do You Ever Wonder Where Santa Goes After ChristmasDo you ever wonder where Santa goes after Christmas?

I really do kid you not.
He takes Rudolph and...

As We Watch Them Burn . . .Barely weeks of seven of the orgy
Space crash of 117 people in a Bellview
Tragedy came knocking
This time harder with anger to
Ginger blood off its hunger
Unto the street of heaven came the commotion
On the Flyers descendant to the open
Field in the Rivers of Port-Harcourt
Emerge the Sosoliso...

Copla Treinta Y Siete This Bad Guy WorldCOPLA TREINTA Y SIETE: This Bad Guy World
When wrongdoing piles up on top
Bad Guys strut and yell out like hell:
Whose fault’s within
Withdrawal sloth makes the worst cop
Nature shirks to balance rights well:
Yang lets Yin win
Either abandon all to Dao
Or seize the seasons by the lock:
Life...

Who's Kidding Whom?(My thoughts about doing the project without getting the credit)
Without grandiosely postulating
I will offer my opinion.
I don't know whom you're quoting,
I presume he's not a minion.
For he's not the one, I'm thinking
who is doing all the work
just for the love of working
while the credit seeker...

A Life of LiesYou have a shelf full of bling.
But never won a thing.
Your coaches claimed you tried,
But in your heart, you know they lied.
Educators spoke of hard work,
But awarded indolent shirks.
They preached about school pride,
But in your mind, you know they lied.
You shuffled off to college.
Seeking higher...

Betraying FreedomToday Joe Biden spelled it out crystal-clear
that he's 'leading' solely from the rear
Our sanctions, he stressed, were never meant to deter
Given that, why on earth should Russia ever fear
A country whose president shirks helping democratic Ukraine
with its...

Miss JulyMISS JULY
Vitamin-D shot —
Temperate, she’s not!
She’s cool and she’s hot.
Miss July, her gold complexion shirks shade.
Possession of yacht —
Lease was a long shot.
Time reflects in knots —
The noctilucent cloud waves, sunlight sprayed.
Buds eternal thought:
Untrimmed moon garden sought.
At zenith, Vega spots
Delphinus the dolphin — East...

And they soon lived in Amory's armory.

Sweet grace who's job title is postal clerk
Got married to a man she met at work
Although...
