Pet Peeve
Last night, I dreamt I was a parrot. I spent my days in a cage and my nights in a rage And all I could ever say was what I’d been told. Every few weeks, when there was company, and the doors and windows were surely locked The man would let me out And I’d fly into the kitchen cabinets and...

Premium Member Please Stand By
Please stand by for this important announcement Of news you’ll most assuredly not want to miss A newsworthy, earth-shaking pronouncement More startling than your first unexpected kiss. Your favorite television program is interrupted Just when you’re about to watch Final Jeopardy, You’d think the U.S. government was bankrupted By the sound of the announcer’s anxious perfidy. Instead, there’s a tennis player who’s deported From...

Not Always Feeling It
by Wayne Wysocki I don't mean to anger or jar you, But you've hit on a pet peeve of mine; To answer your question, "How are you?", I'm required to say, "I'm just fine"....

Premium Member My Pet Peeve
Faith's morphed into a Sunday catharsis for people feigning the worship of God. Mimicking genuine faith, they fake it, lock children in cages, and then applaud. You either accept Jesus or not, but don't build walls that condemn the poor to die. And claiming to believe in Christian love, snatch babies from mother’s arms; facts don't lie. Such hypocrisy hurts my heart and...

A Pet Peeve
A Pet Peeve By: Olivia Rodrigue A smile that reeks desperation A mascaraed eye batted intently Your falsified figures and fancies Undermine others of my generation To think that a woman is only Aesthetically valued and won Is a peeve that’s been maddening many But thought significant only by some They bray at braless feminists Thinking that these are the crazy few Feminism means makeup-less monsters That degrade...

Pet Peeve, No, 1
This is for all the people out there, That can't use proper grammar, You make me want to tear out my hair, Or hit you with a hammer, Yes, my grammar is not the best, But please try to improve, And I'll try, not to slam my hand into your chest, If I need to...

My Pet Peeve
We all have our issues, that bug us to the core For some a nasty habit, or the tapping on the door Perhaps the way we dress, or our strangely colored hair Or when we slurp our soda, or wiggle in our chair. Strange how we irk each other, almost all the time Seems it’s done on purpose, to watch...

The Pet Peeve Converstaion
I waited with anxious thoughts Contemplating what to say about it The pet peev conversation was suitable In light of recent events I saw this a blessing A chance to show everyone in the room that I feel I never wanted things to be so dramatic But it calls for drastic actions to be taken Something to prove I'm not sadistic And some...
