Best Upset(A) Poems

She was smart, beautiful and a perfect host
Yet these god given attributes don't explain how she became adored 
By most,
With no hate mail in the post.

No, we have to look elsewhere for the reason,
That no matter what the season, 
She could appeal to our reason.

REMEMBERANCE POEM
(penned by Gordon AKA Alex Alexander R Sigs 1987 –2013)

Alas it is that time of year
When we all shed a tear
For absent soldiers who went before
In far away lands fighting a war

From Ypres to the Somme
And further a field
Too many men
Far too young to...

Our ancestors roamed ‘cross the seas
way long before my time
and conquered lands so strange to us,
but ever so divine.

But since they crossed that salty pond
they’ve changed you must agree,
no man from here… the ‘motherland’
would waste our precious tea.

So now a ‘Great Divide’ appears
on both sides...

When the sun looks into darkness 
upside down cowboy's lend a hand to chaos 
deserters of faith rejecting lawful behaviour 

Persuading bodies believing something good is created from lies 
deceit has no value with an opinion against the truth 
a human right has been violated...

Its time to do what's written
Explain,  I can't until you let go of all you know
To understand what truths we are missing
Or that have been hidden

I will use my self as target
Cause its not in everyone
To comprehend what life really is
Want their illusions to...

Give a man a wife, say goodbye to strip clubs
Wife, give the man a meal = endless foot rubs
If the meal you cook goes to the dog, slap him hard
If the dog also refuses, send it to the yard.

Give a man a car, see him...

There once was a cleaner called Su,
Who spent all her time in the loo.
As she cleaned up the pan,
She upset a young man:
He was doing a number two....

This poem may upset a few people
In a world of drama, pain and hate, how can I write something peaceful
I'm always honest with my feelings, never will I mislead you
Religion is the root of all evil
Hating another cause they have a different belief
Some can't see...

I grew up in foster care without a role model in my life so I had to look elsewhere 
I had no idea that a strangers words could help me feel strong when I'm scared 
Sometimes we worship celebrities like they're perfect and do no...

I
Capitalists sell prayers and hope
From China, PRC, to you and me
In images and words: forward these
To all your contacts - such positivity
Yet we hear, embedded spyware 
Comes with readymade China prayer
To Jesus or more often, "the Universe"

LORD, I owe my all to thee
My two children...

If I was making book,
I would not have far to look,
As making it to zero carbon would be first in the book,
With plenty of fools to be took.

If I wanted to expose a big fat lie,
Zero waste would be another sure thing,
I could look at...

As the clock continues to move forward;
    Seconds to minutes, then hours to days.
The time allows more thought of beyond,
    What lies ahead and how many ways.

This journey is often prepared by reflection,
    Looking at history...

challenge was to keep a serious face,
and of merriment not a hint or trace,
they all should stay still in silent poses,
but should any of them smile first, loses!
In a classroom of teenage boys and girls,
was so easy to make teeth smile like pearls,
serious face was...
