Take Back Reclaim Offense Please For Everyones Sake

Personally above and beyond all

I hate and despise in this world

Is misappropriation of certain

What used to be meaningful words 

Critically descriptive important essential

That have been devalued demeaned

To such a lesser degree they bare no relation

To the initial gravitas they instilled

Like when I hear the throw away term

Racism is used currently bounded about today

With total and

Premium MemberNo Offense But

No offense, she said, but I want you to stay as you are.
I stopped dead in my tracks halfway to my car.
What do you mean? I asked with a quiver in my voice.
She is kind of a mean girl, my co-worker Joyce.

You are totally strange, she said, weird, I am sure you knew.
As a matter

No offense, one kid says.
But school lunch’s meat tastes like raccoon droppings.
Why would that be offensive? I wonder.

Premium MemberLife's Offense and the Muses As Escape

I sit with pen in hand this downcast morn;
     and search the Muses for more enraptured songs;
songs of great cheer, of memories heartworn,
     to banish the spirits of inflicted wrongs;

before, no songs could quell the ruthless onslaughts
     of life; so abject, I was

Premium MemberCompose

To you my love I do propose
Cursory couplets to compose.
What sort of short verse would you hear 
In short iambic rhyme my dear:
Coupled couplets in a couplet?
Coupled cutlets in a couplet?
Or perhaps a brace of bears bare? 
Perhaps a pair of pears to pare?
Surely none, you have too much sense
As such poetry gives offense.

No Offense

Is that what you think?
Is that what you know?
Stories you've heard, time passed and consoled.
Moments ended in a blink of an eye,
All Hell breaks loose hoping you'll die.
A blurry silence,
But an extremely loud pain,
Driving you crazy,
Leaving a stain.
All things good, gracious and true,
Falling before you, bleeding you through.
I raise my hands up to Heaven above,
Fists

Premium MemberWealthy Defense: Healthy Offense

Fear-based legislation,
more against our diverse pathologies
than for our multiculturing health relationships,

The attempt to govern negative emotions,
outcomes of poor communication,
is always
and everywhere
a corrupt effort,
a suboptimizingly ineffective
unhealthy
impoverishing
unenlightened political
and disempowering economic
uncooperative idea.

The opposite may also be true power
and beautifully enlightening;

That love
and gratitude,
positive attitude rooted legislation
is always fertile
and everywhere regenerative,
a restorative justice
and peaceful experience,
idea,
communication,
choice,
decision,
positive electrical election
for a healthier wealth

Egoist

One who is full 
of himself,
as fragile as crystal ball 
on a shelf,

who sulks in resentful 
vain defense
against the slightest 
imagined offense,

and shines or dims 
or shatters
depending on the tricks 
of flatterers.

Premium MemberNo Offense But You Stink

Someone smells like smoke.  I can barely stand to sit here.
Clenching my teeth, I have a headache, everywhere near.
A friendly smoker has sat next to me, oh, dear.
I jump up, because her smell is killing me, so clear.

I am an asthmatic, and I cannot breathe next to a smoker, I think.
 In the nicest

No Offense

No offense
I plan my actions carefully
A good impression is the key
I’d rather die than have the people
Think not nice of me
I’ll smile when it’s required
I’ll nod no matter what
Yes, even when I don’t agree
I’ll keep them tight and shut
Why should I be authentic?
It is not worth the fuss
Excuse me therefore if at times
You’re thrown under

A Woman Can Take Like a Offense At the End

A woman can take like a offense at the end,
just in two situation, and both inhuman:-
If you see in her a woman, not a friend.
If you see in her a friend, and not a woman.

Offense

There once was a fat lady named Hortense
who claimed she could sing but this was nonsense.
She would make our ears ring
when she tried hard to sing
for her hitting high C was an offense.
