Young and gullible
There are a lot of myths we have been told
Like at the end of a rainbow there's a pot of gold.
Things I was told turned out to be lies
Like if you watch to much television you will get square eyes.
If you eat the crust of the bread you will
Get curly hair.
Don't look to long at

Dumb and Dumber and Gullible
Dumb and Dumber and Gullible
Easy to spot
old men in Red hats
MAGA meanies
cranky and angry
that the world has matured
and they sit in their rot
lie and lie and smear the truth
very sore losers and so uncouth
feed them falsehoods
they drink it like beer
show them an immigrant
see them shiver in fear
Now Canada and Australia
not perfect for sure
just more common

Gullible vs Sane
the gullible are too many, the sane too few ~ what will voters do
barbs being thrown, tit for tat, red states, blue states ~ I've had enough of that
tired of all the political rants ~ they bite each other like red ants

How Gullible Can You Get
That old gullible Gulliver Gold
Would believe anything he was told
It would turn to champagne
Catching drops in the rain
But all he caught was a nasty cold
Then we told him to try it again
Said this time it would turn into gin
In a steady downpour
His throat got really sore
And grew incredibly pale and

Gullible
I'm scared to sleep I so I keep on popping yoppies.
Always hiding my addiction from my colleagues.
They keep asking will I quit? I say probably.
But truth is man I wish somebody’d stop me.
I guess it’s all these issues that I’m going through.
Can’t work on me but I can make a better you.
I try to stop

Chaff and the Vagabond
Loyalty brings even the fortified few to falter somnambulantly in succession
As if tranced to commit, their convictions are true yet skewed
The blind emotional outburst of bigotry and cynicism conveyed
Is but a microcosm of what pain these individuals likely feel
Something of an atrocity to be used and told when to kneel
Although the accused has seen

The Gullible
I sat with a friend
discussing the corona virus
they are killing us she stated
the virus is a gas
I saw it on the internet
they're dropping it on people
the virus is not a gas I stated
a virus is far worse than a gas
A gas will people in an area
but a virus is passed from
one

Gullible Does Not Mean Foolish
A handsome man beautiful woman
Admired and loved; their outer shell,
Pretty face like sweet fauna
Can be root bound within
A labyrinth of
Irrational
Behaviour,
Evil

Hide a
Gross intent,
Poems disguised
That speak about love
When ink turns radical
Perceiving of lonely hearts,
A dark moon upon the rising
A song a rhyme sent on an ill wind.

Gullible Greek Bled
hoisted hanker bruised
vying voluptuous view
eerie oddities oozed
fostering felon fluid
porous pills punctured
sassy seals structured
mental horizon melted
gnawing gaunt glued
hefty heels drooled
pulpy peers pulsed
gnashing gifts gulped
callous crest cupped
gullible Greek bled
etched acumen ebbed.

Gullible Phrases Gulped
hoisted hanker trips
cranky cause clipped
soapy sauce seeped'n
in taunted tease
smoldered spiritualism scribbled
on dark dwindles
gaunt gifts sieved
sumptuous seal retrieved
haughty hoists spilled
bounty beards blushed
surmounting syllabic touch
gullible phrases gulped
porous pen puked
drenching vying view.
