Misnomers Poems | Examples


Premium MemberCultural Psychosis

When facts are misnomers
and life is just numbers
When the cards are stacked
and our conscience is hacked
When we elect kingpins

The house always wins

Not so TREU, will monopolise through and though
It will be better, if you could forget about your
And the long two weeks' that broke who..?
Maybe me? Or you? What can people do?
Well Gandi did peaceful non compliance i'll bet
That reality is not being taught to children today
By sociialist teaching and their doctrinal apprentice's 
Or you can choose to euthanise, its a slanted word
Situation that echoes a term known as genocide
There is also the word infantacide, there are phobias
And misnomers so theres plenty coming right at
You.' (Reality tv should amuse) anethesise you mind
In a world that were'e told is kind? And be sure to say
Take care ' Treat others with respect, let the authoritys
Break their necks; or pepper spray any 75 year olds in
Their way.!
Its only double standards if you don't look the other
Way... Deau.)

Premium MemberMay I Ask

Unto your loving counteanace
are we not a pair to be
forever enthralled
unlisted by humanity
altruistic apologetic
always empathetic
sometimes failed
other time hailed
our times of the here and now
resolving past misnomers
foretelling a price for our present
the power drain from our past
the forgiveness of our futures.
Aye, there's the rub.

Shadow Casters

Shadow Casters


The blaring light casts a superfluous shadow

upon the timepiece, in a garden full of weeds.

As empires have fallen; iron and clay, once gold,

the gnomon stands strong, versus snake, won't concede.

Venom-fed nutrition, people beg, cheat and steal;

sacrificial skins as misnomers for the lamb.

The blaring light casts an intention to conceal,

false shadows point fingers, as deception is planned.

Pretentious accusations, a slant used to blur,

guarded homes, shoot to kill; open borders, humane?

The spot lights, the actors, politicians concur;

'your eyes will be opened', with the promise, they ate.

The blaring light casts upon the dead leaves and vines;

the gnomon pleads WARNING: of a source not the sun.

This gardens devastation, as Rock shatters time;

A new garden waits, with humility, and love.

Dreams For Sale

Selling a 
dream is 
easy,
Like building 
castle in the 
air,
A deal is the 
devil's game,
It never 
change just 
the name.
A film star 
must get 
naked,
Or the world 
will forget you
existed,
Lawyers sell 
metaphorical
misnomers,
To reach 
higher goals 
in life,
Doctors the 
biggest drug 
sellers,
Many have 
fallen into 
their traps.
I'll be hanged 
for exposing 
their
lies ,
The system 
is in fact a
pyramidical 
trap!
The all 
seeing 
eye is a spy,
Into your 
homes,schools 
and work,
Its easy to 
blame it on 
the money,
It can't stand 
up for itself,
And you 
surely can't 
stop using it,
Your dirty 
little secret is 
safe,
Just don't 
stir the 
hornets nest.
