Inexact Poems | Examples

ENGLAND. Year Posted 2007
Rainsoaked fields,pastel green,
perennial impressions of country scenes.
Shire counties cramped and compact,
neither temperate,changeable and inexact.
Seasons merging into one,
winters' mild,summers of sometime sun.
Ancient,historic and quaintly modern,
pub-grub,village greens and cricket squares sodden.
Precedent law,judged by our peers,
diverse opinions expressed sans fear.

PS

A language now a  global gift
its English please never use 'Brit'

I believe the roots of love differ,
    Between men and women from the start.
Though while generalized and inexact,
    The fruits yield a common harvest to the heart.

With men it seems physical attraction is
    Needed, to arouse his predatory pursuit.
While the woman must admire and respect
    Her suitor, beyond the visual tribute.

Often times when these are lacking,
    Any love once built becomes lost.
Whereas neglect may lay claim to the
    Atrophy, only to be measured at great cost.

Humanities culture compels this recipe, while
    Some seasonings add variety to the meal.
Yet regardless of the male/female interaction,
    The family of mankind will survive . . .
        And spin the wheel.

Mismatch

Poem
Poet
They don’t always match
It is not exact
I mean, opposites attract
Every brand new batch
Of poems can detract
From the original, not intact
The idea that did hatch
May not become tact
The meaning now abstract
But I guess that is the catch
When you make a pact,
Or rather a devil’s contract
To somehow patch
The little compact
Of inspiration, from which you distract
Yourself from your detach
That cut you off mid act
You try to reenact
And reattach
Disregarding the fact
That you were the one to subtract
Actual creativity to snatch
At the chance to transact
Quality to make an impact
But it all went down the latch
I guess all it did was counteract
Your initial goal, inexact
From the world, you unattach
And live on in redact
With no one to interact
Forever to be a mismatch

Bushwhacked By Love

Being
         a 
      Little
   Abstract
   Whacked
      and
   Cracked.

          I
   Snatched
        Eye 
    Contact
      with
  Distracted
     Impact.

    Enacting 
        an
     Attack
        on
         a
  Suggested
       Sex 
       Act.

  Interacting
      with
     Jam
   Packed
   Counter
   Attacks.

       The
     Knack
         of
      being
Intellectually 
    Stacked.

  Retracting
      One
   Tracked
 Fraudulent
      Facts.

Bushwhacked
      and
  Carjacked.

  Transacting
 Transparency
         in
    Outdated
    Contracts.

    Attracted
         by
        the
   Unbacked
     Smack
         of
     Inexact
       Yak.

 Sidetracked
       and
 Highjacked
         by
          a
Prepackaged 
   Jackass!

Going For the Deep Pockets

Going for the Deep Pockets

By Elton Camp

Too many lawyers seeking somebody to sue
From doctors & hospitals feel a living is due

So doctors and nurses are forced into CYA
For needless tests the patients then must pay

A doctor would surely be a most careless sort
Who didn’t ask, “How will this look in court?”

The lawyer who an ambulance used to chase
Is the same one who loves the doctors to face

Malpractice insurance has pockets so deep
But it makes the doctor’s fees terribly steep

So all he can do is charge patients more 
So such lawyers we all should simply abhor

In rare cases, a doctor is guilty as can be
A malpractice suit there I can actually see

But medical practice is surely an inexact art
And most such actions should never start

For what some lawyers do absolutely isn’t right
Such a one is nothing but an economic parasite

Rapture of May 21st, 2011

"It is the end of the world", they cry
"Those not saved will surely die!"
   Never mind the fun fact
   Previous dates inexact
Get the marshmallows out for the fry!

Tell-Tale

these demons
are like easy people speaking
with glossy tongues
making sure that you feel
good about
the transaction in front of your
face while
the wobble of the edges of the cone
produce the indelible memory
concerning a tell-tale image
demonstrating the true 
inexact picture

spend your
money
spend your 
time
jump through fire rings
run from the otherworld
saw off the connection
dive into the river
all just to purify
yourself
from these
selfish souls
so deranged and starved
for the quest of 
anothers 
excellent life
