Schadenfreude Poems | Examples


Life is like Reality TV


Hyperbole hubris

Venal penal

Avarice abyss

Bucolic tonic?

Ironic…sardonic

Or

Vitriolic bliss mate!

Mendacious salacious

Algorithm schism

Audacious outrageous

Vicarious or nefarious

Whatever geography

Clever hagiography

Moderate.. no berate

Generate..venerate hate

Casting various sordid spells

Schadenfreude morbid void

Everlasting..well..it sells well (swell)

But

Despotism urges Nepotism

Surges of Plutocracy

Merges with scourges of Kleptocracy

Purges meritocracy...dirges of Democracy

So

Resist narcissists trysts

Reminisces.. enlighten..persists

Sagacious benevolent gracious times

Redolent without malicious vicious

Murky mucky malevolent mists

SCHADENFREUDE -



        The convinced sadistic silence

           manipulative action perpetrated,

            resembles satanic art

             inhumane and cruel torture,

              It is also a culture of death...

               foster real illusion of love,

               promote massive disillusionment,

               that breaks hearts and minds

               It is, therefore, a diabolical procedure...

                We faithful servants of God,

                 We shouldn't deal with this...!

I've seen how mean 
You treat others. 
You're well known for stepping 
On the necks of those 
You deem beneath you.
You've conveniently forgotten 
Laughing 
Over many a misfortune,
Mine included.
So legendary is
Your cruel nature 
And peacock-like arrogance.
You carry a baffling air 
Of invincibility.
You think yourself 
Infallible; better than the rest.
Or are you? Now I watch you
Slip deservedly 
On a banana peel of poetic justice 
With laughter 
In my eyes. You hear folks
You've trampled upon clap,
And you don't like that?
Well, what did you expect?
I hate to admit 
I feel no guilt or pity 
For you and your troubles 
As you've taught all and sundry 
One true thing; 
You get what you give.

Schadenfreude

That wind so wild can cause those wooden limbs
to shake from side to side as though to slap a face.
It is worth watching through your window
feeling the weird warmth within, while witnessing
another's violence, as viewing a movie.
How vain do you feel inside
seeing the outside wind and rain?

Have you watched a ring fight,
heard the punches with leathern fists
on a face that takes chastisement
that you and your fellows cannot feel
on your own flesh, without or within?

Have you seen or known of the past
of rockets, guns, arrows, swords, spears, pain, death,
been sheltered by your country, your land, your home,
felt warmed, protected, on your flesh, in your core?

And how did your ancestors watch and hear
an agonising burning at the stake or crucifixion?
How unworldly is that hideous view
that can of course, from such a small distance,
generate a weird warmth within.

Schadenfreude

The sickness, it bubbles
I stare the ceiling out
The rage, red, sticky and hot
Fire charred my insides black
Your face falls with a thud

Thud. Thud. Thud.

My heart jolts into life
A smile creeps beneath my scowl,
A sickly sweet delight

Scandals are delicious to us
Celebrities are fair fodder
How thrilling to hear the details of the divorce
Anothers misfortune sadly gives us a certain joy
Devilish felings of smuggness
Eventually we all feel it
No sense denying it
From the scandal sheets to your smile
Reading the headlines at the checkout
Enjoying the gossip
Uncharitable phsycological state
Drama draws un in like flies to honey
Envy is at the root
