Best Stomachache Poems
Chocolate FountainChocolate Fountain Abuse- for the lover
How easily I forget I'm allergic to chocolate
I want to dip the exquisite kosher in a Spanish brandy
Sweet, sweet, cavity tarnish boxes of chocolate
At a store window; a dried up chocolate fantasy goblet
A taste of spoiled milk, nothing dandy...

Gransmother's Legacy, Number 2On a trip to Grandmother's,
we'd hear Mother say,
"Your next botany lesson
will soon be on its way."
A visit invariably meant
an immediate tour of her garden,
while the roast in the oven
began to shrivel and harden.
Our stomachs would growl,
our patience would wane,
as she...

You Are What You EatMonkeys eat bananas
and weasels eat snakes
I'd rather be a monkey
than get a stomachache...

Mow DownI found the gateway….To mow (down) any stomachache….
(Touched)
By your sweat….
Liquidated …. any honor… I put, into your heart….
Atomize…. any memory or dream….
Exterminated…. the sound of your…(Voice)….
The battles….The discomfort…. And headaches…
My poor… damage feet, walked everyday….
For amusement and Hanky-panky…..
Was… your , welcome mat…
If I...

Dreadful FairytaleDreadful Fairytale
Stay away from the paint.
You’ll kill yourself on the swing.
The green VW cannot contain all of you.
Change into something more modest.
Sequined slippers sparkle gauche.
It is the pink and kerneled
lures me under the tent of
impossibility. I do not fathom
aviaries of peakcocked humans
reaching...

ComeuppanceLike a frowsy, dowdy
old housewife
I sit largely
unnoticed
stout and squat
a sort of kitchen sentry
rarely appreciated
until some minor crisis-
Cough, sniffle, stomachache
a particularly bad day
or fancy party...
then things heat up
quickly for me!
This was one of those
fancy party days
no cause to celebrate
for me!
Grueling stove-top swelter
I take it all in...

Things That Don'T Let You Sleep All Night
Its been a long time
That we human have slept for a while
Freely enjoying the cold breeze
Without some wine for sometime
Stress keeps you awake
Wine makes you feel alive
These are some of the things
That dont let you sleep all night
Heartaches or...

Earth's Last BreathThe earth on her last day comes in my mind
I see the earth sick with stomachache
in the universe that is becoming rebellious
humans that increasing act as God’s creators
Time is near or remote; the sick earth will collapse
A lunatic drank with hatred presses fire buttons
The...

Lousy PancakesLousy Pancakes
Lousy Pancakes
Oughtn't be allowed
Especially when one
Has a limited income
They were meant to be a treat
For me to eat
But I wound up
Dissatisfied
Tongue - bleahed
And disgruntled
Pancakes are meant
To make one's mouth and tummy
Smile
But I am left
With a disagreeable expression
And a stomachache
If only my favorite cafe
Hadn't closed...

If we were wise when we were young
Some songs would have been left unsung
Had we anticipated well before hand
that the road we travelled through was wrong
We'd never stop and glance back
To relive rare moments that came along

Death of HopeDeath of Hope
Hope was a beautiful girl, long ago,
before she turned seventy when the pandemic hit
and turned her into an ideal candidate for Covid's
voracious appetite, living a solitary life in her
assisted-living apartment, until one day,
when the sun was playing hide and seek with...

School MassacreI am stuck in this institution;
Like it’s supposed to be a resolution.
Everything is in mute;
As if I had taken the forbidden fruit.
I didn’t do it, I swear!
As I’m placed into intensive care.
I have an awful stomachache.
Maybe I did make a mistake.
I always seemed to be...

To fill up your foul bellies!

Off the BingeEating more Mexican food than most of Texas
is not something one should be proud of. If
all the wisdom of man is mere foolishness,
all the tacos you can eat are mere stomachache.
Along the way I’ve rediscovered herbal tea,
that proverbial panacea in a land of coffee...
