Long Hoodwinking Poems

Misery accompanied, haltered, tethered... tattered web

This health conscious lx year
roam'n, hoodwinking hoodlum doth wear
two pair bullet proof underwear,
(which confession rarely trumpeted),
plus yours truly admits unclear
why tibia long in the tooth fellow,

prevaricates with tongue in cheek...

VIGNETTE FORM an example

In the base motor pool
See an off-limits card school-
A scheming Bilko takes the pot
Hoodwinking top brass was his game,
Fast talking his claim to fame.

I begin as a covet, dulcet demure
pure in play, unbound to a dogma or tablature, a luscious lure,
I find that nerve of passion's verve nestled 'neath narcissistic comfiture
a covey of tingles taunting the ambition you...

Insidiously instructing ignorance inserted into him, now handed down to them,

THE SMILE ON THE OTHER’S FACE 

Money power money 
Rest is all hoodwinking 
 Peace, love, respect all are bluff
I am a real man of reality 
I had never been in whims and fancies ...

Putin rides Russia’s pride
Cheers ring nation wide
Swept along by the tide
No matter, Putin’s stride

Putin derides all global calls
Jeering at the soft flung balls
High on the home-pep of it all
Playing pride before he falls

Before today Putin...

Neoliberal Elections

Actually my hyperbolic suggestion is not that new
apart from the vote casting honesty it might pursue
as it is known to democracy with all its respect due
no more veils from rich over poor to give...

I know of a poet here on the Soup
He is a sham; he has everyone duped
Most poems that he posts are not his own
But quotes from others, rearranged, and donned
So it appears he has written...

Hoodwinking Little Red

By Elton Camp

If the obvious isn’t recognized
It can result in a bad surprise

Red Riding Hood wasn’t bright
Didn’t recognize the wolf on sight

From the brain
Rankles the soul:
An eternity of ignorance.

There are no marrams for skin.

Marquetry of bones
Intricacy assumes
Hoodwinking eyes
That see only nudes.

Whining gin.

Phthisic mind
Transhumanizes darkness
Swaddling rain
In a hollow pearl.

Aperient paraffin.

Happiness now:
Being straddled in the sun,
Juvescence:
Fustigating the...

Cheaters might win by wit and darkness of stealth.
But what does that tell you of a man or a woman,
Who enjoys hoodwinking others?

I have no judgement or answer for that. 
It's you..who has to in...

I'm as honest as the day is long which means

I'm more honest during the longer days of summer

So if I tell you something in the winter

Take it with a grain of salt

There's a good chance...

In the grass, 
Where he is hiding some stolen gas  
While gossiping about his obese boss 
Who does not know more about  the big  
multicouloured  serpent  in his company.

Obsess to steal...
