MYSTAKES
Mystakes…Misteaks…Mistakes
made everywhere by everyone;
13. A misjudgment of memory in what was wrote down
3. A errror of sintax in computer coding
6. A falt in a car’s nackered engine
9. A discrepancy in a shop’s cash office readout
11. A problem with line memorisation as an actor perform onstage
8. A slip-up on a drunken night out
2. A inaccuracy of a burette measurement in a science exam
5. A mix-up of paytients in surgery operations
12. A long forgotten deadline for a university assignment
4. A blunder of five hundred doomed men charging into battle in the wrong direction
10. A miscalculation in clockwork chronometry
7. A lapse in concentration as a lunch order is given to the wrong customer in a cafe
14. A misjudgment of memory in what was wrote down
1. A oversight in gramma and speling in a poem
Mystakes made everywhere by
everyone but nobody learns from it.
Focusing on my self; no other
filtered out all negative feelings
cut ties with deceptive dealings
home is calling so don't bother
Feeling things that make no sense
a little of revenge, guilt, anger, fuss
a lot of love, faith, truth, and trust
Thinking of things conjuring defense
Eliminate thoughts of all others
took for granted with misjudgment
challenging my truth with argument
now stuck in shame that smothers
No allies in this deceptive outer world
most live for bribes lies no alibis
all I truly hear is loud curdling cries
devastated by the truth, only can hurl
Let this be a lesson to trust only self
trust your own feeling and knowing
forgiveness and healing for growing
always room to help improve oneself
Not understanding my role in your life
no longer needed spoken or explained
hate jealousy greed no longer retained
dismantling what The Divine calls strife
Completes my assignments with grace
highs lows many death and rebirth
bring back LOVE to beautiful Earth
LOVE is home there's no other place
Endless thoughts swirl, of that girl with endless ardor,
Without remedy, my spirit slowly fades.
Urging to feel, with fervor growing harder,
This mindset pulling me deeper into shades.
Feelings break down both mind and soul,
Morale crumbles, and you lose control.
Involuntarily, you start to accept,
Anything, just to feel, to reconnect.
Here, in this place, peril finds its home,
Broken, yet standards must not roam.
When this arises, decisions are swayed,
Shrouded in misjudgment, choices betrayed.
Companionships dissolve, like mist in the air,
From kinship to strangers, the pain is unfair.
Misguided attempts to tether and bind,
And misplaced blame, so unkind.
Catalysts cause this rift to grow wide,
But don’t blame yourself, don’t let it slide.
For this separation, don’t let it worsen,
It’s not all yours to bear, not a curse to burden.
A blooper, a blunder, a bungle, a botch
A miscue, a misstep, misjudgment and more
A faux pas, a boo-boo, a bumble for sure
A miscalculation, a miscomputation, grade goes down a notch.
There was a time worth remembering
There was a moment you wouldn't forget
But it was lost to a fatal misjudgment
And had been replaced with regret
I wait for it to peak its head out
To the wind the action was tossed
But i swelter in the heat of a missed opportunity
And reconcile with my loss
SAID THE PANDEMIC aren't you afraid yet
I've been around a long time.
They call me SARS, MERS and now COVID-19.
Take precautions,
be clean and careful
for I descend like an Omen.
Sneezing,
coughing,
bone chilling hot temperatures
that destroy your lungs
and even your heart.
I can be Deadly!
I am the result of human misjudgment and interjection,
from consuming the forbidden,
overuse of antibiotics,
and chemical experiments to name a few.
You know they created me.
So do yourself a favor,
eat lots of veggies,
fish, black seed oil,
take your vitamins,
anything to boost your wimpy immune systems,
because I refuse to be treated lightly.
I do show up without knowledge,
travel in thin air,
spreading by the slightest of touches,
even lingering for a while,
wherever you may leave me,
on cart handles,
door knobs,
counter tops,
wash rooms,
just about any and everywhere.
So be Cautious and Aware,
for yes I AM DEADLY
and will take you
before your time.
The biggest coward of a man is to awaken
the love of a woman without the intention of loving her
as to love is to honour and cherish her soul
is a man a coward who deceives a women to protect their heart from breaking
can a man who truly loves a women live a life locked in a lie
when truth will break a women’s heart and question all she knew
and pain is thrust upon those that moments before loved without question
can love be used as the reason for closing the lid on the box of misjudgment and deceit
or is true love allowing a women the chance of happiness in a world of truth
will the pain of realisation and regret of the act felt inside, be punishment enough for the sinner who wronged a saint
if true sorrow resides within a blackened heart, can it allow untainted blood to flow once again
these questions have answers that lead to more questions until truth makes its way to the surface, the heartache the pain, the loss of trust and deceit is key to the box which holds the answer to the question that can only be discovered through consequences of the initial question you wished you never asked
How do you compare to others
are you grateful for what you tend
is your life not what you imagined
is anger a childhood friend
Why tap the keys with bitterness
does illusion light your stage
what’s reflected in your mirror
how authentic is this play
Is perfection worth the measure
vulnerability for just the tame
are your sleepless nights no burden
do your blankets shroud the pain
Is defense the chosen weapon
is your quiver filled with woes
will you shoot those fiery arrows
till your tide ebbs to a close
Do you see what’s in the running
will tomorrow ever come
can you ascend to some contentment
or will energy succumb
Those doors slammed tight before you
could you bust them with embrace
alas, its life’s misjudgment
to forever lose the taste
The look on her face
Told it all...
She made me know
That it's not 'seresere'
I wasn't joking as well
Then
Two don cut four...
I pouted
I hissed
I was pissed...
Surely boys are not smiling....
The reason was one
Misunderstanding...
Misjudgment...
Mistaking...
Everyone just misinterpreting
Your actions...
It vexes the soul...
But what can a man do?
Patience...
Such is life....
OF LOVE’S SYNDROME
Insomnia
Loss of appetite
Daydreaming
Incessant smiling
Neurotic
Indecisiveness
Misjudgment
Distress
Stress
Walking endlessly
Flighty
On cloud nine
Ulceritis
Hard of hearing
Nervous breakdown
Imagine illness
Unexplainable phenomena
Sinusitis
Unknown cause of crying
Disorientation.
PLEASE SEE A CARDIOLOGIST OR A COMEDIAN!
The seed implants in my head
Leabing the wound of a school marked by the hand
Once again it's caused misjudgment of me
Conservation is lost
So hold on...the ride is far too rough
Scream so they hear you again
Beneath the gorund the midnight lovers though
They thought they were alone
Once again my friends are banned
Hanging from trees with bark of a barbed wire frnce
Nylon burns so deep and the noose is too tight
My breath is taken from me
So hold on...the fall is far too long
Giving too much time to scream
Beneath the ground the midnight lovers though
They thought they were alone
But we were wrong!
We're watched from the distance
We're heard with satelites
Binocs and tripods kept us hiding
But we've found sanctuary
