Moody Poems

The Boy With The Cardboard Heart

When you have nobody 
you have somebody and 
that somebody is 
yourself. 

Because you’re 
all you’ve got. 
So why need 
anybody? 

Anybody being nobody. 
Nobody being somebody. 
Somebody being anybody. 

Somebody. Somebody. Somebody. 
Nobody. Nobody. Nobody. 
Anybody. Anybody. Anybody. 

Does anybody 
understand why 
the  I feel 
like a nobody? 

Even though 
deep down I

The Moody Sky

The sky cries at times;
He emits fire, when needed;
Angry with a heart...

Today started out bright and shiny
Then suddenly turned cloudy and sad
Doesn't take much to turn it around
To change a good day to bad

Something that seems so insignificant
Can change the mood of the day
Like rain that falls that wasn't predicted
Or snow in the middle of May

They call us guys moody people
They wonder why we're up and

My body aches
And my soul  brakes
But I've grown to
Love it

The Interworld

An Interworld
of fading light
twilight, midnight
Never bright

Of shadows shifting
moving on
spiral ‘round
and then gone

A dance a play
at edge of thought
time and space
come to naught

To leave us right
where we started
The Interworld 
Now open hearted

What have we but life
both first and last
The rest an illusion

Doubt

I am the turmoil
The thought you just can't let go
Oh, you so wish to

Darkening mindset
An increasing impatience
Do you know me yet?

Mood Swings

Mood swings come running towards me,
Doesn't matter if it is night or early.
Sometimes I feel angry,
Which changes into glee.
Sometimes I feel happy,
Which changes into gloomy.
Sometimes I feel  day-dreamy,
Which changes into clumsy.

Is it just a hormones play?
Or is it just another dismay.
I wonder if it is normal or is it just me,
Does it happen to

I once knew a lady named Judy.
Who was constantly moody.
She then took a chance.
And learned how to dance.
She now happily shakes her booty.

Ferststangga

Resistivitiy Metrics are aassocated with
locating water before the drilling.

where discussions take us
from price to certainty
Costing then finds us as we
are excited to see
in awe we gloat and glare
those whos lesser understanding
just look at stare
which reduces labor
a chore which we support
then to doing
then that whats been needed
done
we applaud happy 
as we prepare to drill

reliblity and productive
automation

Premium MemberMatts Moody Mother Mollycoddled Him

Matt’s moody mother mollycoddled him.
His toenails had a daily trim.
He sneaked out to date.
His girlfriend was great.
They fell in love which made mommy grim.

Matt pleaded with her to change her mind. 
I love her he said. She is the marrying kind.
Forty-two is too young!
His mother said, Son!
He was a baby in his mommy’s mind.

Premium MemberBp Moody, My Hero

Never had I met a man of the cloth more worthy of honor.        
When I met him at the age of 19, he was around 35 and pastoring.              
Very early on, it was clear that
