Best Swagger Poems

Ted breezed into the house like he owned the place
with an cocky smirk plastered all over his face
I know that look son; just tell me what you’ve done -
you’ve not robbed a bank and now you’re on the run’!
 
He puffed out his chest and...

She swaggers over to our table
Whips out her pad from her apron
Pencil poised
What’cha want Hon?
She drawls
Soft pink lips in a little twinkled pout
The white frilled design
Bust’n out in all the boxum places
Our “Two Specials with coffee” reply
Brought a smile
I like it fast and easy like...

The man is from Bronx, but plays in Manhattan
Owns an old Chevy, but he drives like a Mercedes
Sleeps in Quality Inn, but dreams in Ritz-Carlton

Watch him flip his hair and float on thin air
Jazz of the night, he's song of the dawn
And in his every...

Cleopatra, The-Deo-Swagger

I swagger on up, up onto the top,

yet it wasn't my style, being Queen of the Nile,

they saw me a leader, who filled up their jigger,

for the praises they sound, I need to keep them around,

being a swag I was high, being tagged a...

i see you strutting
your long flowing hair
miniskirt and heels
swaying with swagger
content with your lot in life
i try to picture you
twenty or thirty years from now
and can’t help but hope
life never drags you down

SWAGGER

Collaboration poem of
Space Cadet (Wesley C) and Darren White


He can absorb and hide his gaze,
      Pretend to be genuine and flower his date,
      Her tattoos hide him from the freaks, 
So he can evade any...

BIG SISTER'S SWAGGER--new baby brother


My mom and dad bought them a son
Someone who will like to run
Someone who won’t comb his hair
Someone who’ll forget his prayers
Someone who will fight and spit
Who will learn to kick and hit
Who will climb and who will fall
Hide in holes...

When ya got swagger, people all step aside
Their absolute amazement, they surely can't hide
My heart goes out to them
Their adoration has no end
I share my brilliance with people worldwide :)...

Vibrant cheers he exudes
Along his blissful smile
Midst mirth-filled greetings
Shaking hands with everyone
Oblivious of disability’s vexation…

Triumphantly presenting his abstract art work
His boyish swagger prevails, devoid of haughtiness
Revealing “confidence-to-the max” wholehearted glee
With his branded thumbs-up sign  
Defying hypocrisy’s jeers…

Approaching the sanctuary’s altar with joy
He is meekly...

U say that I ain't got no swag,
'Cause i cant stand and light a ***,
Cant from a stranger take a hug
Cant down a bottle of beer,even a mug,
Let me wear my rags,
While you floss in your clad,
Not that i cant afford that.
But i choose 2...

Old Mick has the lips of a bragger
And wiggles his hips with a swagger.
He jumps, full of beans
In black skinny jeans
With hip-shaking destined to stagger!

Old ladies enjoy the distraction
Of seeing their idol in action.
He keeps them at bay
For, wrinkly and grey,
They can't give him no...

ive lost my bravado and my swagger
my new mail order bride was a nagger
strongest woman ever seen
full of muscle and quite mean
and a sharp tongue that cut like a dagger

she shined so sweetly on buy brides on line
promised everlasting love for all time
the minute I...

Oh!  How he sauntered like a lord with his flaunt
The bluster and strut so nonchalant
The swank and sway blew me away
And swept me under the table like child's play!

My!  His handsome style
His arrogant modesty was no denial
He beamed as he jilted so tauntingly
Every...
