Best What The Hell Poems


Then They Give Us Form As If One Three Thousanth of Us Know What the Hell That Is
Velvet fell from the SKY ON a Boston day by the bay
Cotton caressed thy lips gentility so that you might sigh
While you tried to convince me you and I could beg to fly 
Suddenly uncertainty and fearfulness drew night but I never knew why

War, Evil Beast, Just What The Hell Is It Good For

War the Evil Beast what the Hell is it good for
A calamity brings death and great destruction.
Nation against nation, death and misery scores
Onto mankind all its deep savagery it pours.
A darkened force that wipes away...

What the Hell
As I sit tonight, of all nights
I think, what the hell!?
As I smoke and drink and smoke and
drink,
I think what the hell,
I cant finish,
I cant start
and I cant love
without dying over and over
Gameover.
I am bad at the game of love,
a poker match with high stacks
the...

What the Hell
Why is the “p” silent in receipt?
Why is “no” not the same as “know,”
Or “new” and “knew?”
And if someone says “there,”
Why do we know
They don’t mean “their” or “they’re?”
I read a note from a redneck up yonder
Said “Hay man, ya got a doller?”
Well I don’t,...

What the Hell Are They Thinking
The grand, half-ruined Parthenon,
once a sublime, Doric grace,
Even now, in broken, stone blocks,
always takes my breath away.
The rich, classical detail,
fluted columns without plinths,
to imagine what it once was,
the mind can’t even begin…

That towering Coliseum,
the great masterpiece of Rome,
even half gone it’s staggering,
to be so tall,...

What the Hell Did I Do
What the hell did I do..

This question posed aggressively
now in my conscious mind.
I bury my head in my knees,
and sob relentlessly asking why,
and mumbling man you really did it this time.


Party at my place he screams,
and Man you don’t ever stop by.
These images scroll the...

Premium Member What the Hell Just Happened
Live every day to the fullest

Each one is a treasure that cannot be recaptured

Life has a beginning, a middle, and an end

No second chance to experience things for the very first time

Make the most of every day

Breathe in deeply the breath of life

Remember the joys...

What the Hell Happened? (Part Two)
when she met the homely older man with the big nose,
shoulders hunched about his ears as if to ward off further blows,
she married him and moved far away
and at first it was okay
grateful for every day
that passed
admiring herself in the looking glass
every day that he...

What the Hell Happens If Chicken Little Is Right
NOT MY LITTLE JOY

Everyone who knows knows it shouldn’t have gone this way
A friend I’ve had for eons knows this isn’t the way it should be
That such a threat be handed unto me
My ex-girlfriend Peggy will say the same
That such a strengthened opponent would summon...

Premium Member Oh What the Hell
I really don't feel like writing
The day was hot, and I don't feel well
And I can't think of a thing to say
But, Oh what the hell

I shouldn't bother, I should relax 
Don't even have a story to tell
I should go in and take a shower
But,...

Premium Member Well What the Hell
As one door closes
And another is flung 
Open wide
Bad moons in my room again
Who will decide
As we float out
On a sea of chance
Disdain
Remains 
Unclaimed 
Just another circumstance 

In my crystal ball
I see a story as yet untold
The truth belies
Her beauty there
Perfume lingers in the air
Or...

What the Hell It Doesn'T Matter
What the Hell it doesn't matter

it's not like your being battered.

Your heart beats faster, your nerves on edge,

what the Hell is it doing to your head?

Your eyes deceive, you cannot believe,

if you should jump for joy, or if your chest should sink, your stomach churn.

The...

Hollywood, What the Hell
You ranted, raved, and lectured us,
for years on the silver screen.
You called us filthy, redneck scum,
claimed our ideas were obscene.
All the while you were raping
naïve, young girls in your hotel,
and yet you dare to lecture us?
Hollywood, what the hell?

You went after a major church,
for doing...
