Delude Poems | Examples


Delude

How can enough be enough
When lives are treated like garbage
Picked from the gutters
Thrown in the dump?

How can earth be at peace
When nature is disturbed
And air is defiled constantly
Yet superiors smile over it?

When a poor mother
Tries to save her child,
From the emitting of carbon
Burned by an industry close by,
She is deluded and placed low
Because superiors enjoy the advantages
Caused by the disadvantages.

Do not ask the masses to calm down
When their lives are endangered,
But you stand the chance to put an end
To this awful beginning of the end
That has placed mankind in disarray.

As they try to let it out
To fight in order to heal the world,
To restore stability,
They are rebuked by hierarchy,
‘Shhhh! Say no word’.

Premium MemberShe Painted Her Lips

She painted her lips with intent to define but they began to elude
her over time.
They grew harder and harder for her to find.
She just couldn't see that lipstick line.
I think perhaps she's going blind.
She decided to paint her ears instead.
They were still firmly attached to her head.
The only problem was what people now said.
"Are you ill my dear? Your ears are bright red."

Premium MemberWe Delude Ourselves

We delude ourselves.

 There is an act that is supposed to protect our privacy.
It is, in the larger scheme of thing, not but a fantasy.

It is not but a means to have us feel safe, an illusion.
This act can be circumvented, simply, confusion.

All one has to do is take the time and apply.
The powers that be, simple for them to spy.

As they secretly do, always keeping a watchful eye.
Open, searching violating the privacy of you and I.

Privacy ???, with the governments eye in the sky.
Cameras on the roads, in buildings, privacy but a lie

Big brother is watching us !!!
There is nothing left to discuss

It's All About You Delude

She stalks me, on my profile,
comments most vile,
I think she's in denial,
because after a while,
she tells me to leave her alone!!
Funny I know,
dumbest I've known,
I think her minds blown,
she's got the police on the phone!!
What a delude,
narcissistically rude,
she has a chest like a dude 
and a rear like the moon!!
She gets it out it lights up the room
glorious rays of sun shine through,
I'll say to persons as I conclude,
I never state these poems are about you

Premium MemberThe Mirror Doesn'T Delude

Who’s that old guy in the mirror?
That cannot be this young guy here!
I don’t remember growing old,
Gaining weight, and feeling the cold.
Seems that time has gotten away from me, I fear.
