Best Short Tempered Poems
The Dandee Donuts GuyA tall and short-tempered fat man
was a boss I once had named Dan.
Both his kids and his wife
worked there too. Oh, what strife!
They fought like a hillbilly clan.
Dandee Donuts was Dan's small café.
I served donuts and meals for small pay,
wore a stupid hair net
and what...

Poets Are ProstitutesPoems, prose and roses
Poets hate politicians
Poets prefer poking pens at people
P-words, power and paupers
Poets love writing about love
Tears, the sky and meadows
Poets are prostitutes
They are sex vendors
They expose their naked thoughts
To the world
They talk dirt without apology
And care less about anyone's emotions
Poets are short-tempered like...

Men You Definitely Wouldn'T Want To Date - Part 2I once dated a chef …
I was worried about getting a bun in the oven
But when I saw him mincing across the kitchen
I knew I wouldn’t be getting my fingers burned!
I once dated a fireman…
Oh he was HOT HOT HOT
But when he got out his...

Grandpa's Weathered Red BarnGrandpa’s rustic, once crimson red barn sheltered so much and so many different things
From biting bitter cold, to cyclonic winds, and hard-drenching-down-pouring rains…
Great memories lie heaped, buried in antique red rubble and sifted gray ash
Decaying on open flat grassy plain along with the historic Civil...

Clean Person In the Eyes of Yahweh GodFor out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual immortality , theft, false testimony, blasphemies.
These are what make a man 'unclean, ' but to eat with unwashed hands does not make him 'unclean'. Matthew 15:19-20
Clean person in the eyes of Yahweh God,

Kousse the DrunkardRead more at: http://www.poetrysoup.com/member_area/submit_poems.aspx
Once in the village of Daka in Burkina Faso,
Lived Koussé the incorrigible drunkard
Very popular was he that his presence was necessary
In all the ceremonies and feasts and meetings,
Wifeless and childless and houseless and penniless was he
But was feared and respected and admired...

This Looney Toons LifeSomedays I feel like a female
Bugs Bunny,
saying "whats up doc" while
confident and cool,
while other days more like a
girl Daffy Duck,
feeling more like a tongue twisting fool,
while out shopping I feel like
an Elmer Fay Fudd,
almost always on the hunt,
looking and hunting for bargains,
hopefully...

An Ostrich That I AmTrust an airborne Ostrich like myself with clean wings as the boar
I have seen the lion sing and the songbird roar
But I stood in disbelief behold the bald eagles fly
Above the firmament’s heights implausibly the bald eagles ply
I have seen goats eat fish before nonchalant...

Being Realistic , ----- Why Am IBeing realistic
Why am I ?
It is good to be realistic
And remain neutral
When It comes to any race topic,
Some gender debates topics
And politics.
I always find hard sometimes
To share some truth with some
Short- tempered people who can not
Examine my...

Dr Upma a SharmaMy bio
A dad's daughter,
A mom's soul,
Siblings' wit,
Son's pride,
Husband's darling,
Is me!
Freedom of thoughts,
Flight in ideas,
Fighting every unjust,
Friendship you can trust,
That's me!
Extremely emotional,
Crazy at times,
Passionate at heart,
Liberal with words,
Poetry and music my beats,
My strengths!
Short tempered,
Impulsive,
Beyond real world,
Over reactive,
Betrayal my only fear,
My weaknesses!
Courage of iron,
No one can melt,...

Uncle Joe's PrayersEvery day he prays
But Saturday is special to him.
The week is done and the pressures
Of work are over--for a while.
It is time for the real work
Of his life to be performed.
Two hours in the morning
And two in the afternoon,
Though time is irrelevant
Uncle Joe can't...
