Best Upset Poems


Upset
mr. buffet can’t believe that
so much “inequality exists
without people really getting upset” &
as he & some of his richest friends in the world
start to give up some of their moola 
to cause that they see fit,
the fact remains that 
enough are not upset---
it is time...

Upset Tummy
When her gastrointestinal tract 
went gurglly and angrily talked back;   
lamented my Maria, 
"This damn diarrhea 
with me flat on my back so lacks tact."...

Don'T Be Upset, Mommy
Mommy, don't be upset
When they say how you should stand, sit and eat 
While I munch on your blood and meat.

Just don't be upset
When they advise you on when I should be fed.
You alone know when my tummy needs bread

Mommy, don't be upset
When they say...

Upset For? ( based on A course in Miracles Lesson 5)

Reason to be upset
Not what it seems
The more angry I get
Eludes me what it means


A trigger pushed
Driving me insane
I feel ambushed
Yet only reveals the pain


A truth rejected
A lie believed 
Oh so affected
I am deceived


Yet illusive...

Limerick: Once an upset farmer in Xin Jia Po

Once an upset farmer in Xin Jia Po*
Built farms upwards in tiers: O! Vertigo!
Produce diminishing
UFOs pilfering
Now he sows wild oats in Infierno!

Upset
A tennis player loses
And they say he’s been upset.
Well, naturally, I understand
Upset is what he’d get.

This term is never utilized
In any other sport.
At least, I’ve never heard it
In the sporting-news report.

“The Yankees were upset tonight,”
Implies they were in tears.
“The Knicks were so upset, they sobbed
In...

Premium Member That's Another Reason I'M Upset
What is it about a Wizard's appearance that gives me pause?  I 
     always find myself guessing about what type of lurid surreptitious 
     act of debauchery is practiced within the confines of such nonsensical

Premium Member What Did the Dodo Do To Upset God?
While other birds ran away and hid,
That is not what the dodo did
And, sadly, being ill-equipped to thrive
Designed stupidity could not survive.
Assuming divine intelligence, it's odd;
What did the dodo do to upset God?...

Don'T Be Upset
If I told you 
that I hated you,
you would cry,
and I hate it when you cry,
because then I cry too

So if I was hurt
because you were hurt
then maybe 
I don't really hate you.
Maybe I hate what you've become
and what you are becoming

As the days pass...

Premium Member When I Upset the Applecart
They rolled along the dirty road,
With apples fresh among the load.
They stopped a mile from the mart,
As I upset the apple cart,

I stood in front as if to stop,
Causing all the fruit to drop,
Telling where the road had led,
And warned of dangers up ahead.

Told my...

I Am Very Upset
I am very upset at the world
That they don't like the word of the Lord
They would rather place all of my trash
That caused me to fall and crash
They hate His word, they hate His truth
When they see it, it gets the boot
I can write about...

Premium Member Blue Hole
Blue Hole

There is a blue hole where my heart is
It's been blue since the day love parted 
I don't know why it did 
The reason is kept hid
And here I am sat broken hearted.

It could have been something that I said
The thoughts keep racing round...

A Woman's Lot
A Woman’s lot!

Not yet 50 - well nearly - but not yet!
But I would never have bet
That this would be the year
That would start to drive me to tears
And night sweats….and brain fog
That makes life at times a bit of a slog

Now, who in their...

Premium Member No Loyalty
No loyalty
No royalty
No unconditional love
No clean white dove
Life is full of shocks, locks
Rocks, blocks, mocks and flocks
The flowers are faded
But the diamond is illuminated
Go crazy by deciphering what I mean
Oh! No in Heaven! It’s no fun being mean.

No money
No honey
No building
No kissing
It is what it...
