Browbeating Poems


Premium MemberDark World

Dark World

A world gone dark, trapped in isolation
Reality fades, felt is the approaching cessation
Unmatched is this bleak and utter heartbreak
Time becomes obtuse, present fabrics now quake

Squandered decorum, searching for hopes door
A clear and present danger, discovered once more
Abandoned and sequestered, searching for light
Rearing vital hope, moving forward in the night

Inoculations brought forth which many deny
Phantasms maintained as many more die
Searching for truth in a world that hides
Convinced of false faith, ignoring the tides

False sages conceal empirical fact
Browbeating their brethren with abominable tact
A juncture has come, more lines have been drawn
Man needs to unite before all hope is gone

cannot compete
with dead ends of deceit 
weary from taking the backseat
for now I offer bittersweet defeat
headbashing reinforced concrete
browbeating dusty sheets
heartbeat delete

Besetting the Tempest

Besetting the tempest

Confronting the bad wind which blows 
Browbeating in its way everything that grows
Respires tolerance,peace,security long taken for granted
Ousting seeds of faith painstakingly implanted

Mislay untoward weeds of abhorrence,bribery and corruption
Infest human souls and quarry deception
Over the world prevail and hostility nourish 
Ooze into demure minds and values ditch

One contrivance and perhaps the only purchasable 
If you delve to flourish a life as feasible 
Benefit wisely,exploit that wind anew
Refrain from evil and consciousness issue

Shrug off prejudice and your way elbow 
The wind possesses several strings to his bow.

The Princess Can Talk

I tend to whine
it's a dark gift
passed down through many generations
I am the culmination
the absolute sheer perfection
of whining

See, I whine EFFECTIVELY
I actually accomplish things
or get others to accomplish my things
simply by whining

not to be confused with browbeating
or nagging
that is just so...
welfare 

Ok, so I can maybe be annoying
or cloying
that is so...
Well fair
