Best Waste Poems

I balance my illicitly obtained bottle of absinthe from a man who knows a man, for an exorbitant amount of Euros, on the worn wooden windowsill of my topmost room at the rundown pension overlooking the harbour. Next to it, I place my well-thumbed copy...

Good times may not last.
Share thy wealth with tomorrow.
Youth provides for age.

Nature in it’s utmost,
has no wont of haste.
Time has little meaning,
and there is no waste.

One year or a million,
matters not at all,
everything that lives,
eventually will fall.

Ashes turn to ashes,
and dust goes back to dust.
All Flora and Fauna, 
are building up the crust.

So death is there...

We live in a world of time
everything is controlled by the clock
always looking to see where it's at
engagements band meetings in its lock

Social media is not my scene at all
whatever it is Twitter, Instagram or Facebook
people wanting to tell all that they think
nothing is secret...

People use this earth like a facility

To generate felicity

Finding happiness in everything that's wrong

Like drinking, smoking and using a bong

But what's the point of this when your life is gone?

You could end up a murderer or a con

Acting like everything is fine when its actually...

Santa had an helper called Heather
and 4 little elf manager helpers
She told them to be nice
and give lots of advice
so all us call takers work together  .

There once was a call centre agent
who wanted a manager to help her .
No manager  could be...

Waste, time

If life is not a total waste of time,
perhaps we had a different other line,
back and forth a hundred thousand years,
with blood n death impaled by spears, 
sometimes,

duty caused the crime,
if it's not a total waste of time?
resurrection, sometimes, 
have some faith I’ll bung...

when we cut and paste
even if we made much haste
will not have any waste

when where what why who
we only needed a few
which we know will do

with eight different words
which will start with w

My other favorite word
which I will like is wonderful.

The children at night;
They cry,
For their loved ones are ill,
From the fumes our hunger produces.

They dream of a world for happiness,
Joy and imagination;
For many memories could be created
From this electronic wasteland.

Think of the things we could make;
Planes that fly.
Think of the things we could do;
Metal...

~ Don't  Waste Time ~
 (Mirrored Refrain)



 Time goes by so very fast
 Days months  years are gone past
 Tick  tock  tick  tock  tick  tock
 Time passes quickly, it doesn't stop

 Consider accepting Jesus Christ today
 Tomorrow might...

A long time he has hung on
It's about time he gets the boot
The rest would be glad to see him gone
They'll team up to say good-bye to Newt

At first school was cool
Had to abide by one simple rule
Read and write
And never fight
Recite the alphabet
How easy can it get?
One plus one is two
A E I O U
Two times two is four
D O O R spells door
Maths was about addition and subtraction
Multiplication and division
Studied...

he floated in mid air
feet never touching ground
refusing responsibility
for his destiny

a drifter
open to anything
a puppet

never occurring to him

at any moment
grab the reins

what are you
a butcher
an assassin
are you kidding me

you nonchalantly
say you’re
just killing time

do you not see
it’s criminal
you’ll never come across
anything more valuable
than the precious
gift of time
