Well, Here Is Another Nice Mess You Have Gotten Me Into

At last, Mr. J Bugman is now a retired Judge-man.

For many years he has punished many, spared few.

His verdicts never alter even if there is no hangman.

He had no rest, no serenity, working is all he knew.

 

Retiring, he sought peace by sleeping with content,

He has never slept; yes, he has but not in true

Premium MemberHave I Gotten Over It--My Spokenword-

 I was stained soiled and broken
 Out of my mouth came evil miss-spoking's 
Perpetual vomiting of obscenities
 Spewing out of me 

Have I gotten over it
 a light switched 
On from the Dark Dawn light now
 I'm seeing in a new mindset in God 
I am over it

 And a precious previous past life

Shouldnt Have Gotten

We shouldn’t have gotten a shed
For I’m sure you can guess where it’s led -
Saving things we don’t need;
With it gone, guaranteed,
We’d throw things in the garbage instead.

Now the mice have a place they can hide
When it’s freezing or raining outside.
They leave droppings behind
Which, of course, I will find
And I can’t seem to take it

Rotten Games and Gotten Strange

12/27/21


Did poorly or was doing just fine
The outcome was negative or had a plus sign
Always not just sometimes
Being one of a kind
Under the moonlight and sunshine
When it took a turn for the worse or was sublime

No longer getting brushed aside
Seeking what it is that I must find
On the frontlines

Can't force it
Or forfeit
Held true or was

Premium MemberWhere Had He Gotten a Key

her daintiness well hidden
Armora slid out of bed
fully sheathed in full armour
ready to fight anything that came along today
A handsomely muscled knave arrived with breakfast.
She let him live.
Her ex-husband popped in.
Where had he gotten a key?
She picked up her sword.

D4-What I'Ve Gotten Myself Into, and Out Of

Inside friends but more
Everyone knows I’m beyond 
A friend or tinder whore
Hitting spots you love and cuddling up
We pretend that it’s just touch
Time spent isn’t much; strange to think.
Listening to Frank Ocean
Told me not to show emotion 
We’ve been doing this for months
It’s beyond the sex 
But you do it best
Situation is a mess
Even so

Premium MemberI Thought I Had Gotten Away From This

I thought I had gotten away from this part of my childhood,
but I turned at lettuce and ran into my cousin Linden
in the grocery store last Thursday.
He was delighted and dragged me back to their house 
to observe more of their childish games.

Unlike in the movies where they pop a gunny sack over your head

Premium MemberGotten Light---

GOTTEN LIGHT---

I got a light, Jesus is the light;
And it’s bright, Jesus is the light;
Why do you run?
Open raise your arms;
Open your eyes wide;
Let the light of the Son;
Permeate your being;
Let it shine, shine, shine---
Allow Him to dwell within
The Son shines on in;
His Father spirit persuaded me;
To realize Light must shine 
For just a speck

The Moon Might Have Gotten a Cold

The moon wears a mantle made of a rain cloud
This is the reason that he’s soaking wet
The moon might have gotten a bad cold
His pale face looks like paper under dim light

Please take off your mantle of rain cloud
To brighten my nostalgic dream that is fading out
To light up my feet standing on the snowy

How To Have Gotten

How To Have Gotten

Many answers exist how to get over a hump,
That are sung to the tune of Throw Out Trump;
At odds always,
Nights and days;
In the road, he sure has been one big bump.

Ill-Gotten Gains

Ill -gotten Gains 
False premise
Path falsely taken
Road stolen by feet 
Not meant to roam 
The road ahead 
Came to bit in the ass
Plans obtained by false 
Appearances of many years 
Of falsehoods portrayed
An I'll fated attempt at 
Trying to impress another
Who never truly gave a ****

Haven'T Gotten Over You

Peeking through my corner bedroom window

playing hide and seek

 the ocean's breath pushes through

the semitransparent white curtains 

allowing the sun to shine and smile

upon my half-opened squinted eye.

I close my eyes and try to dream

dream of that night

dream of you and me

that star filled summer sky

laying on a blanket overlooking the sea

that glimmer as I

Although I'Ve Gotten a Bit Wiser

Although I've Gotten a Bit Wiser

There is of course the ruin of the old,
when the dead pass through them
like dreams or shadows, darkly
and without purpose-

drinking wine and prune juice they 
forget the dead in a hideous chair
outside the GS supermarket.

How do I forget the dead?

How do I forget myself? 

... and then, as if by
