Blatant Poems


Premium MemberBlatant Truth

Trust is never clear, but is often blurry
Brutal honesty given out loud, often met with fury
At times I've had guts to spill, but no one's trustworthy
Betrayals of confidence with friends, most just run away with hurry
The corpse of my blatant truth
Circled by vultures since my youth
Deceitful when true friendship calls
Don't like this reflection, perhaps break the mirrors on your walls

Absolution

On the the brink of change
Vague yes but rearranged 
At the edge but with a grin
Not some grim hypocrisy 
It might seem like a phase
You said "Grow up and act your age!"
But I reciprocated
While you elated, confiscating 
I may not seem enraged
But the seam has burst this rotting cage
And now I've been unleashed 
Only to see that I can breath
Insanity's cold touch 
Has softened up this bleeding crutch
To gain a new perspective 
Convey to you I've had enough

Zoom Crush, Or the Blatant Staring Allowed In Virtual Meetings

Your face is tiny on my screen,
one square among the twenty-two - 
but rising out of my laptop, 
somehow you fill the entire room. 

The professor talks away but 
I scarcely listen, for meanwhile,
I can spend the whole meeting with
my eyes fixed on your smile.

Premium MemberBlatant Racism -- Satire

They're looting Wal-Marts today
  to solve America's problems tomorrow
Anyone with a heart can see
  Wal-Mart's blatantly racist pedigree

Why, they've hired a single black
  and non-white customers enter from the back
Only rich folks can afford their stuff
  their high-priced items cost so much

Wal-Mart robs and rapes our country blind
  a product of white folks' poisoned minds
If we can just burn down all their stores
  there won't be no racism in the USA no more

Premium MemberBlatant Feelings In Rhyme

In my ultimate unnatural timidity,
I must admit a bit of vulgar sublimity
In my blatant disregard for femininity
And my propensity for despising fake saccharinity

Blatant Bill Propose

Blatant Bill Propose

Blatant bill by congress they did propose;
When a weirdo on you grows and grows;
Latest have heard,
Is totally absurd;
Trump has orange hair and nose that glows.

Guess anyone else would call them
attention getters.

Premium MemberVillanelle: the Fake Or the Phoney Thrive Only On Blatant Envy

Villanelle: The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy

The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy
Who’ll stoop to any level to scuttle the imagined rival
Smiles drawn tight on faces sullen with conspiracy

Yin’s motivating force lies in usurping Yang’s glory
Drives it to ape and rob the Yang for supposed survival
The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy

In scarce genuine values world the spurious spawn many
Few who strive for what endures bypass not the ephemeral
Smiles drawn tight on faces sullen with conspiracy

Cryptomaniacs control art subsumed into personality
Accidental uses of material rate neither as error nor trial
The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy

The Spurious clamour with the public for easy bounty
Even time-tested concepts and ideas hardly prove original
Smiles drawn tight on faces sullen with conspiracy

Envy turns the sprocket chains of fortune for the many
Who just skip and dance and hoot till the final upheaval
The Fake or the Phoney thrive only on blatant envy
Smiles drawn tight on faces sullen with conspiracy

Premium MemberBlatant Irony

She exists for a man only

He achieved what a man can

That of trying a trick abstractly

She easily got henned in hand!

Decisions are tough, exclaimed she aloud

Life in love is not easy 

He, a rose in hand, proud

Rose up to a plane above

She, a tender one with exalt

Thought of love as sincere admiration

Found out the abrupt truth, abomination!

Her only precious asset his inspiration

Her own body, as sexy asphalt!

Blatant Megaphone Misfits

Intoxicating sweat of misfits
Consuming your glowing banners
Robbing free information from the mansions
Settled silently in a tight space
Peddling sympathy, logic, and fate
I'm a poor boy with a dull toy

Don't penalize me for your mistakes
Dont enslave me with syrup dripping pancakes
In the heart of trivial bull*****mounds
The purest hounds will release their chains
Echoing dreams from raw sound chambers

With my megaphone blatantly displayed
Ill funnel the furry
Of this generations dead mercenaries
Those corporate baffled cocktail parties
What else to steal the banquet

Gossip peddlers employing
Data mining technicians 
All the drama of man versus woman
Ensemble- nature has a date
With destiny

The Blatant Lie

my mind tells my heart
my heart believing the ruse
trusting what it feels
