Chiefly Poems | Examples

The Weaverbird and the Flower of Paradise

If seen, he seems a feathered thief
come to steal a feed; 
but for the flower, this is chiefly
service for its breeding.

Dull Water

( A Definition )



Having a small European resembling a brown back.



Having hammy old-world songs related to a large ‘NO!’



Having no American thrust; (the upper part).



An olivatious, blackish, whitish, streaked glommed throat.



Chiefly dull; (the under parts). Drippy-



Dull as water, Round seed,



Edible nuts.

Floccinaucinihilipilification of me
Hurts to the core
About my poetry

He doesn't adore
Interesting lines, humor
Seems to abhor

I hear rumor
See if agree
Stinker or perfumer

Strong Love of Majority Men To Each Other

For men to love each other chiefly 
Does not need some open  definitions
Of their strong love in this cruel World. 
Men are the heads and  
Protectors of families. 
They always play dangerous roles 
Which risk their lives generally. 
Men are the best life colleagues
Due to the same situations 
Which they face daily, 
Monthly and yearly. 
Smart women will never complain 
About the strong connection 
Between men to men 
As they helping each other frequently 
For the benefits of majority 
Women and kids. 
Majority men don't have time for useless 
Fights and competitions  in their lives 
Reason why majority men are always friends.

Screen of Awareness

I knew what I know long time ago 
About the concept of wrong and right 
Of good and evil, it guides me through 
It always points me to the light 

Even if light sometimes change hues 
It does not change what's dark and bright 
For, sometimes jazz may turn to blues 
But black is black and white is white 

When someone robs to feed his kid
The fact won't change, stealing is crime 
There's still wrong in what he did 
There are right ways to earn a dime 

Though, God's name may be different 
In some cliques, in some religions 
But in true sense, all are coherent 
That he's the same father of creations 

We have our laws and the commandments 
Where our acts are chiefly based 
And though, there may be some amendments 
The guiding concept can't be erased 

So when temptations come to our mind 
We always know what's good and evil 
We can't just leave this fact behind 
For, we must act for what is civil

The World Cup

The real mind-blowing tournament,
Her football cups prized ornament;
Leaving without one eyes hollow,
Avid fans cease to squad follow...

Tough strikers playing out their hearts
Defenders halting ball that darts:
It's about luck but chiefly skill,
During practice better self kill!

Player free to display sweet role,
But dismissed as freak,no scored goal
How dare you miss a penalty
When what's at stake no novelty?

FIFA justifies earned dollars:
Blameless final whistle colours;
Out to make it competition
With ears for the right petition

Hosting it image-defining,
The stadium chosen keeps shining;
Sure,does raise an economy
Like would sound agronomy...

I learnt:Big budget in Brazil 
For round leather retaining zeal.

Satanology 6 Satan and Animals

Bias has for animals better named Beasts:
Creatures that could us shake in strong seats
They are the ones Satan ably schemes their use
In battles real rather than a ruse…

And he had been chiefly The Selective, 
Their offices never The Elective; 
A good distance keeps from one this hour 
And the next is back for just its power…
 
For a combat The Beast usable,
Mostly one to Man unthinkable; 
An increased tasking of The Reptilian, 
Time and again contacting Mammalian…
 
The scaly slipperiness of snakes 
Elusiveness matches that record breaks.
So, it had to be Snake at Eden
To help shape The Question he had asked then.
It was Christ who had Swine linked with him
In a sermon and a hostage to him 
But Satan would sooner he wasted one 
Than dispatched it to wars that must be won; 
Yes, after him, God began to use Snake,
With it dealing with Jews who’d dared rake!

For disgrace of Stoned Godly Naboth dogs: 
Nicer than further hitting corpse with logs;
For new slain Christians in fields vulture! 
Does trust The Vulture’s Carrion culture…

And A Dragon for Mother and Child
Fire-spitting, Huge Success from being wild.

Escapee Running Like An Amputee

We heard of the ambush
And we remembered George Bush:
A Radio-Announced Ambush
And we made for some bush,
The man in my front continually push …

One hell of a Lazing Runner
While my heart was Bunsen Burner.
Quick was I to condemn his speed,
Ready to it with fuel feed,
Sure survival was The Rare,
Whenever it became Guerrilla Warfare,
Smart shooters picking off their targets
While The pursued chiefly his teeth grits, 
Doing the thing like a Mad March Hare
And choosing to not a lot care.

The man in my front was A Lousy Escapee,
Running and you’d think An Amputee.

Premium Member Why We'Re Here

My soul grasps how to reap life's unique goal. 
Style ushered as an epic quest, a stroll
I'm fraught with findings to an ad-hoc probe
Throughout the time frame of our respite roll.

I was spurned by a hodgepodge of light strobe
By then, I knew what direction to throb 
A diaphanous shed haunts our capture
In bearing, there is a celestial globe. 

It's a matchless range gain from the ledger
Spite the spirit's sharpness, body's rapture 
Chiefly have bestowing way, their insight
Dreamer's best stance is his decoy nature

Upon abyss veiled in sheer azure bright
Kernels had been seared by a dreadful blight
The stubborn mindset that stifles their voice
Tethered a faint guide in the shrouded night

Before drowning, our uttermost darkness
Beset by datum, view, knack, and strictness
Our heart's need, masked by a snarling ego
Bold eye buried by a slight abhorrence.

Eye Contact That Releases Sweet Hello

Eye contact that releases “Sweet Hello” 
And as many times “Sweeter Cheerio”,
Budding love sung with optical stereo 
The kick started by A Romeo.

Eye Contact that says “Nice to Know you”
Though I’ve yet to be told “who”
Wires of love spark in her eyes, 
Speedy request for his names wise
A longing to have her number 
His first call to be sure a Bomber!

Eye contact praying for the others E-mail
And this goal achieving without fail 
Plus the Spellbinder's residential address
One’s first visit in adorable dress.

But suggest I won’t eye contact 
By Adam and Eve disdaining Tact;
Mine happened to have been a rushed pact
That Lord God and Christ lacked…
To soon a relationship enter 
With libido at its center;
A love affair start having,
With a precious lot waiving…
 
Chiefly, knickers, dropping on the floor
Just beside a hurriedly slammed door!

The Fule Lord

The follies of fools 
The lord of fools 
The fools that are lords
a leader of the damned 
Insane the minority of minions 
Deplorable and disdained 
Blind in the sight of kings and lords
Jester’s of old orange baboons
In golden flossy glossy wigs
Fleeting hair a top fule lords fake façade
In a flock of tweets and Nitwits
Someone said the one eye 
man is lord of the blind in the land 
of the blind this fool is king
Dressed in nothing but a red tie 
& golden fly away sad toupee
The follies of fools a leader 
of the damned doomed
And unschooled the folly of fools 
the fule lord of one supreme leader to some 
Blind in the sight of kings and lords
Burning Republics building empires, 
finding legions of cults 
a Cult of personality bleeding, pleading
Scheming at the doors of a CLOSED kingdom
tearing apart the fabric of a nation
For the keys to dominion 
Someone once said the one eye man 
is lord of the blind in the land 
of the blind has a fool for a king
Dressed in nothing but Ignorance. 
In golden flossy glossy wigs
Fleeting hair top fule lords FRACTURED façade…

Cattle Egret

The whitish bird,
Soon in the midst of a herd:
One, two and, soon, a third ….
Partly there to supervise their curd,
Fractionally, to catch their navigating word;
Sometimes around pacing like their king,
While their “moos” in its ears ring.

But chiefly the Egret is visiting a dining table,
Of which a reaching it is capable:
Easily, a pecking pouncing on the parasites.
That their dung-smeared bodies have chosen as sites.

At this, forever,
The ingeniously clever,
Neat-looking Cattle Egret,
Doesn’t an unhygienic meal regret.

The Crime of Time

Time not only  Yesterday changes
But Tomorrow rearranges,
The innocence of unborn babies tainting,
Their celebratory virgin spirit tilting:
A new-born able to screen from passers-by Its nudity
Faster than Adam did after his stupidity.
Time keeps obliging us with coarsened silk
While during us towards a Canaan of sour milk
We’d better  we had a dietician justify
And  the  safety  of Its consumption certify…
In the past it was
That Angels  would be on Earth for a cause
partly to interact with Mortal Man
And whenever possible drink from his can
But  chiefly God’s  telegram  hand  him
Between  the very  clear and the a-bit-dim,
Fundamentally  happy tidings
Or to, Embittered  Hagar some bidding…
Then, God’s Seventh Heaven was a bit taller
Than the highest mountains  with peaks duller,
Wherefore  goose pimples  from the heavens broke out,
When the already longish Babel  still aimed to thrust out
The prelude  to God’s multiplication of tongues
And  unleashing  of the  confusion emanating from lungs.

Sugar

I see it in cubes cast
And chiefly featuring in breakfast;
In Bread and cake harboured
And in plantains and cereals honoured…

Also in my tea that would gullets pass through,
Its presence in oats holding true.

I see it in packs neatly filled
In layers arranged and sealed,
Each one of them as white as white can be!
Every one of them nearly the honey of a bee.

I’m told The Best Quality is in Havana,
Although readily grows in every Savannah.

A starchy stuff and energy booster,
Raiser  of the Weak and sure Mover!
Yet, not a fabulous treat for The Diabetic
None ever, after taking it, ecstatic…

Must, in fact, forget consuming even a single:
Their no no-go area and Bermuda Triangle.

Opening of Borders

Opening of borders

It deeply touches and bothers
When closed are a country’s borders:
Sealed, helpful channel of a trade
Of super grade.

They needlessly suffer,
Who chiefly feed from neighbour’s offer,
To their radios, a glued concerned ear,
Wanting to a different news hear.

Opening the borders
Is a time-and-again prayer request
Of my panicking brothers
Separated from the Best:
In homilies, giving God’s Angels orders
For intervening scissors on the wires across the borders,
Their knees getting balder
From longer genuflections,
Their faces older
From meditative reflections.

It’s now an active interest in incense
By previous haters of its smell:
A struggle, impressive, to contain a nonsense
And again, The Good, make well.

But opening the borders could be 
Unbolting doors to a journeying plague
And vicious bee;
To a virus with a clothing decidedly vague
Or to some penetrative spies
Helping their mission with good lies.
