Blaggard Poems | Examples


Premium Member Point Of No Return

The point of no return comes suddenly,
and without a whit of subtlety,
saying: I told you at the start
that blaggard has a darkened heart,
and no amount of rosy coloring 
will stop his faithless plundering;
and still you go running back for more!

Premium Member Blubber - Mar 8

Blaggard blaming the blond bloke for his blight:
Blablabla, bluster and bleat, blathering
Blob, your blue blood bleeds blotches on a black
Blossom. Blaspheme, blabber—I blast your bluff.


Premium Member Blinded By the Light

I stood upon  a brine soaked bow
Aboard a  schooner  lost  at sea
Where balls of hail tore through the sails
And broke the masts of three
When karma came to pay me back
For all my dirty deeds
When I laid upon a swan-like girl
Of grace and purity

I stole  her mind..her heart and soul
Her pride and dignity
When I wrapped her in a web of lies
Proclaiming love eternally
As I sealed her fate and destiny 
With my host of  wayward seeds
That would one day bear a bastard child
Bathed in humility  

For...when her eyes were closed in sleep
 I tiptoed out the door
A blaggard with a heart of stone
 I left  her lying there alone
To face the morning after
With  echo's of my laughter
Resounding through the rafters
As she gazed upon my footprints 
On the floor  

Many more...I scored before
Upon those many shores
Virgins by the dozens
And the broken town-hall whores
But, nary a thought 
Crossed through my mind
That one day I would find
The wrath of God upon my brow
When lightning...stuck me blind

The Blaggard

The blaggard:

The loathing heart like black sack cloth for him, the blaggard.
Begrudge all and everyone around him, the blaggard.

A small petty hoodlum in no other terms.
Conceited, boastful, so grim is the blaggard.

Oh he jests and plays at others expense.
But such a small mind, so dim is the blaggard.

Filled with so much vanity.
Tom foolery his every whim for the blaggard.

Inside he knows only darkness and despair.
To earn respect of others, so slim for the blaggard.

Sanctity of the Cross

Truth by lip service and rote

Nailed to a cross

Judgment by history; cut short

To appease the blaggard and bullies of faith

Nailed to idolatry

The future by judgment; cut short

To appease the Judas heart
