Spoiled-Rotten Cat Instructs Visitors
Don’t you dare try to sit in my spot!
I’ll decide if you pet me or not.
I’m the star here, you’ll see.
They all cater to me.
They just like you; they LOVE me a lot.

Newton’s Rotten Luck
Sir Isaac Newton, so great,
Had the apple been rotten and late,
No physics would have been discovered yet,
No derivations would have ever been set.

Who called you totally rotten?
See here? - you do see a little rot.
But over there? - definitely not.
So, whoever said you were totally rotten,
doubtlessly, has brains of cotton -
cuz totally rotten? - you’re certainly not.

Elegy of rotten tomato
I can count how many times something like monster
or dragon whispers a rumour about the moon
or folly or rotten tomato-
but, should that murmur or scene live or stay or grow
in the mind, wide and strange.
I meant

It Only Takes One Rotten Orange
It only takes one bad orange
To spoil the entire basket
This is true and strange
It only takes one narcissistic nut
To burn down the whole block
Very often the bully will mock
The minority and the destitute
It takes one infected prostitute
To contaminate the whole country
This is sad, scary, and crazy.
It only takes a cretinous one
To fool the uneducated pools
To

JUST MY ROTTEN LUCK
When I look at my life I can’t believe how often I am struck…
by how fortunate I’ve been to have such rotten luck!
Rotten luck to be born with faulty vision…
how my eyes, without glasses, blur both night and day…
Fortunate to see a different side of nature…
from the landscapes of Van Gogh…to the gardens of Monet.

Rotten Fruitlet
Fruitlet is dangling on branches of trees.
Trees’ branches bearing leaves.
Leaves, green, yellow or brown dwindling.
Dwindling due to vicious strong winds raging.
At the tree’s foot, rotten leaves and fruit snooze.
Leaves snoozing dead fertilize the earth.
Earth to receive falling fruit to break.
To break and deliver her stone alive.
Alive, stone will sprout and feed on dead meadow.
Dead meadow

Left Behind
“How exactly, my love, am I to die well?”
The question croaked - a ghostly whisper;
from her lingering mouth
of rotten teeth and wretched lips;
broken by an end of thrist.
Eyes glazed at the edge of reality.
A mighty visage; a matriarch.
Vitality faded as a memory.
No more beautiful fiction,
only firm, cold skin;
left behind.

rotten carcass
I have calluses on the inside of my body.
I am smooth and polished on the outside.
But once you peel away my cocoon, you will find cuts and bruises.
My intestines are knotted, tied in one big bow.
My bones are cracked and discolored.
my muscles are tangled and weak.
My brain has pins in it, i am someone's voodoo

Rotten
It isn't just incompetence
That leads a custody evaluator
To to clean up messes
For bad actors,
To justify
The unjustifiable,
To gloss over
The vital,
It isn’t just incompetence,
It's the rotten system
That the custody evaluator
Has been marinating in.

The Long Forgotten Johnny Rotten
Remember Johnny Rotten?
One time star of stage and screen.
His legend now forgotten,
And his films are seldom seen.
Studied movies and the arts,
Before shining on the stage.
Then his name would top the charts,
In Hollywood's Golden Age.
Loved fast women and fast cars,
He raced through life full throttle.
Though too many were in bars,
And fell prey to the bottle.
All the

A Rotten Batch
Your a rotten batch!
You show no respect for your creator
Your life was made to be easy
All you had to do is soke up the water that was given to you
Take all of the nutrients that the soil had to offer
But no....
Instead you turn against your creator
Spitting the water in his face
Your rotten!
A rotten batch
You don't
