Best Wobbled Poems

Soon after the sky had shed her liquid sorrow
When dark clouds quickly vanished 
It turned immaculate, spotlessly blue.
As the cosmic hiss subsided
And the wind withdrew to its unknown hideout,
There was a hush- the hush that follows,
As the priest concludes his spirited sermon.


In that quiet, when...

Playing Batman and Robin is a lot different

When the Riddler is your Stepfather

And simultaneously an alcoholic and pedophile

When your secret mission is to keep him

From bringing heroin and ***********

To Gotham city

 

Your mother wanted to save you both

But Catwoman captured her

And held her six children...

She doesn't dance like Anna Pavlova
She doesn't sing like Diana Ross
but on this blissful day I am watching
the best performer I've ever come across

She wobbled on her pique turns
She forgot to point her toes
but she never lost her smile
a perfect angel until the close

She might...

I posted this first poem on one of my first days here at Poetry Soup. It’s about my stinky Pug Mugsy. He is almost fourteen now and for the past two days he has been slowly withering away. It’s so heartbreaking to see him dying....

It is many years since I visited you and Grand mama
The second I walked through the library door
Memories of my childhood came flooding back to me 
I remember climbing up on the polished library steps
You stood behind me to make sure I didn’t fall

At first he drank to be one of the boys
  To act a bit rowdy, to make some noise
He couldn't resist all the teen peer pressure
  Just couldn't say 'No;' had to say 'Yes sir'

Off to college he went to the land of...

One day in Soup Creek City, 
There was a duel 'tween Cunningham and Watt 
Tom said to John "I hear you're good, 
Let me see, son- what you've got" 

John said to Tom "You're not the only one 
With a gun that fires ink 
Tom...

waking up from my sleep, I was all confused.
I heard a boom as that of thunder,
or the sound of a hammer striking on the anvil.
trying to be up, I felt as shaky as a fawn, 
getting up for the first time on its stiff unfolding...

   silverware tarnished
     forks absent some teeth
   plates chipped at the edges
     set of cups incomplete

   the table wobbled and creaked

Harry the hedgehog was wandering by
Looking for a spot where he could fly,
This is quite serious cause hedgehogs you see
Well, they sort of wobble along just like me.

He wobbled along till he came to the pond
He looked at the rock that the frog sat on,
"If...

Once in a dream-time in a land far away, MJ woke up and wanted to play. 

With magic and mystic and music in mind, she went for a wander to see what she’d find.

While moving and grooving and rhythm she kept, gold fairy dust sprinkled...

A flying reindeer drank much beer
Wanting to be full of Christmas cheer,
When the man in the red suit pulled his rein
He wobbled in the sky with such disdain
He filled poor Santa with fear....

Few years ago, I drifted on a wetland
swiveling through the  pewter of evening
as contours of stately herons unfolded,
velvety the feathers white  and ablaze
by clear Asian ripples of before.

Yet, from a visit today,  my eyes follow them
along weeds..their poses now limp from a...
