No Show Poems - Poems about No Show

TV Show

All the TV shows tell me he feels the same,
When in reality I know he doesn’t,
In all the romance movies I watch how the girl gets the guy,
I know someday I’ll end up with someone,
Today is just not that day,
And he’s not the guy I will end up with,
I know it,
He knows it,
Everyone knows it,
Yet

Lover's In The Night

We dance in shadows, silver and sleek,
Two hearts pulsing to the beat they seek.
Your lips taste like secrets, soft and bold,
In your arms, I forget what I’ve been told.

The moon is a spotlight, casting out sin,
Glittering echoes on ivory skin.
Leather and lace, perfume and wine,
The city fades—we blur the line.

No past, no name, no curtain

No Ego Joe Show

On every outing…no touting or fostering of pouty louty shouty postering…

No flouting of the definition of classical ebb and flow rendition…

Yet boundaries scouting…Rooty sedition routing the opposition…

Echo the past…poetic…the ship’s mast and fillip for the cast..

Prophetic.. to and fro athletic ascetic aesthetic …traditions bestow and glow…

No 20/20 generic…why old school is still and always will

PAEDOPHILES RUNNING THE SHOW

PAEDOPHILES RUNNING THE SHOW.

It doesn’t matter where you look
Or anywhere in the world you go,
The only thing that’s guaranteed
Is there is a paedophile running the show.

From ancient times to modern day
Frome a home to the highest tower,
Paedophiles will always infiltrate
Into a position of power.

Rings established networks built
With protection guaranteed,
From top to bottom in society
They spread

Show, Don't Tell

In my experience
between the two
I'm not naming names
but what people say
and what they do
are not always
one and the same
as they don't follow through
life gets in the way
I understand
but that's no reason
not to let me know
there's been a change of plan
when told I'll call
give you a ring is when
I know I'll never
hear from them ever again

ANDY'O ON THE SHOW

Andy O’(Snaps fingers rhythmically) The air hangs thick with midnight blue/And the city hums a graffiti tune/  a voice cuts through, a velvet blade/Andy O’, where stories are made/Poet, Musician, Broadcaster's soul/Navigating the sonic scroll of a downbeat that will never fade/KUVO Jazz, a haven's light/On Sunday nights, banishing the uptight/The Nightside a whispered

Show me God

He dwells in all
but none know Him
save in a bliss squall 
when thought forms dim

He framed laws to govern
that we may be as He
feel love’s bliss burn
God’s light see

heart is His home
igniting love’s incense
prayerfully chanting Om
know light is our essence

barren without love we die
a pure intent in us arises
to God we wingless fly
embracing surprises

Get this show on the road

Let’s get this show on the road,
The car's still empty and we can't seem to load
Susie's applying makeup, Jake’s playing video games,
Mary’s scrolling her socials, where friends call her names.

I want to get to the airport, I want to be
clambering into an Impressionist painting of the sea
Ride the chestnut ponies, get back to something real,
My

Horror show

Jill Nando hosted "Crimewatch" a TV show
She was shot dead, who did it we don't know.
Lot of cases not solved, not even all crimes known
Keep a low profile or enter a danger zone.

Plutonium was found in Karen Silkwood's refrigerator
She was a whistleblower, did her company hate her?
She died a few days later in a fatal

Smugded Face paint and a bruised ego

The Merger of Clowns

Sorrow the pains of
birdseeds that

by there challengers
in song the lose

the balloons were pitiful

A blooming show

The flower closed
Tired of seeking answers
Why things happen?
Why no rain when needed?
It's time for acceptance
Answers cannot be found
The importance of growth,
is going with the flow
Until the sun shines again...
Until the warmth renews...
into a blooming show again

One day, the mirror didn't show me my face, but a universe hidden beneath my eyelids

One day, the mirror didn't show me my face, but a universe hidden beneath my eyelids,
A version no one meets, a world of public smiles and hidden wounds,
Held together by deep silences and storms of anger, a thousand unspoken words like lonely stars,
The mirror didn't ask how I was, but painted my nights when I

A VILLAGE ROAD SHOW

Picture a dusty village road
Where two stubborn goats 
One older full of pride
Another younger and very agile

Face each other on a narrow bridge
Neither want to back down
They lock horns in front of the whole village
Each claiming the right of way 

On the edges, villager elders watched on
Placing bets on who fights better
Turning merchants for their
