Well you read at your peril
This poet is feral
It’s all hoods and winks
When this black sheep inks
Her sword is a single-barrel

Black Sheep

Ba ba black sheep,
Go to sleep,
I’ll guard your feet,
From those guilty parties who underestimate all,
Pow pow,
You are safe for now black sheep.

Wicked Black Sheep

wicked littile black sheep!
have you chosen your own way?
did you clime a mountain
like a snake upon a tree?
and did you sit upon the lords throne
while he was fast asleep?


Premium Member Short Nursery Medley

Marry had a little black sheep
and three bags full of wool,
She shared with the master,
and shared with the dame,
but not with little boy blue
who blew his horn at the spider.

Premium Member Big Bad Black Sheep

Big bad black sheep, 
Have you any wool?
Yes, it’s mine,
I’m gonna keep it all.
Stay away from me, 
If you don’t want to be harmed;
I’m not going quietly,
I’m ready, 
And I’m Armed!

Black and Blue

I have always lived in a gray area.
Weary of the red tape
I ever resorted to white lies,
That only made me 
the black sheep of my family.

The Black Sheep

The black sheep finally accepted the fact
While he felt the door close behind him
He learnt to adjust to the vast space outside
The coat of the black sheep shone brightly
The moment he realised his freedom

A
Bane
Whisper 
Torments soul 
Discarriating 
The black sheep to the depth level
Inner demons attack the victim without mercy
Fleeing after extracting the vital force, leaving an unanimated being

Premium Member Baa, Baa, Black Sheep - the rest of the story

Baa, baa, black sheep
Had all his wool stolen
From of his back, back, back

He put  a bat man mask on
With a flash light in hand
stealthily into the master,
dame, and little boy’s home
as they slept and got his black wool back.

The Roman Guard and His Brother

(At the Tomb) 

I never told my brother, 
That the women did anchor, 
That the scene was blacker, 
Than a black sheep bleater, 
Because I was the archer, 
Of the delinquency, the snatcher, 
So I was not an asker, 
To my mother or brother.

Costly Love

If every black sheep of the family
Became a billionaire
Then maybe others of that family
Would want then more to share.

It is so then they’ll testify,
“By God, we have not been unfair!”
If so by God then answer please,
“What did it cost to care?”

Black Sheep

Their blisters 
and cracked lips 
can only be imagined; 
in dire thirst 
and wants,
came those starving seasons
to strip them of pride 
and heritage.
Bound in chains 
across storming seas, 
however they survived
in those plantations,

they reaped so dearly
from man’s inhumanity.

I'M the Black Sheep

I’m the black sheep
Of the family
Why, are you picking on me

I’m the outcast 
Because it’s a difference 
Between you and me

You’re the lover
And the party 
animal to

I’m laid back
And refine
That’s what I like to do

Don’t hate me 
for Being me 
I don’t hate you being you

Premium Member A Party

When the sheeple stay away
The black sheep throw one hell 
of a party;
Knocking down walls with rock n roll,
Sending a rhythm down the block
calling the Rebels with their soul; 

TKO on the ground;
What's the soundtrack to the fight?
Anarchy dances through the night,
Everything blurs with the sunrise.

Outcast

white thrush and white crow
fight which one's biggest outcast -
black sheep watches them

*The idioms “white thrush” (merle blanc) in French and “white crow” (belaya vorona) in Russian correspond to “black sheep” in English.

Black Sheep

Beat the fight from this one – try
cannot smother that which burns inside
Twisted words to suit their ways
hypocrisy breeds ill for taste
Unlawful hands lurched out to take
the fight from shell of hero-make
Failed they, so brave is he,
he fought them, beat them, single-handedly!

Premium Member Life Malleable

Arc light blazed
circus arena
clown turns 
tiger tamer
timidity painted 
bold façade
and now for something
completely different
in a new show
a black sheep
on the trapeze
courage convoluted
life malleable.

Looking At Sheep

Black sheep, white sheep,
Unflappable sheep, 
They graze the high grass,
And appease all my demons.

Black sheep, white sheep,
Countless sheep, 
They graze the grass divinely
And appease all my WORRIES.

Black sheep, white sheep
Disbelieving sheep,
They eat the grass, magically,
Ease all my anxiety.

Irony of Eggs

All eggs are White when Laid
But some may not be as good as others
Even if kept safely in a safe environment
you only come to know about this
(unless  you had  tested them for fitness in some other way)
 when they crack and at least one of them
Turns out to be a bad bad egg
Like a black sheep of the family!

Water Warrior

The calm before the storm
remain shapeless
to assume any form
step into the strange
to get a good understanding
of the norm
why be symmetrically perfect
when you can be perfectly deformed
I've been a geek nerd freak
black sheep since I was born
I may not weild any weapons 
but my tongue is like a double edge sword

Premium Member To the Rejected, Outcast Poet

If you're weird, a black sheep, a natural outsider,
If you fish in a solitary pond.
If you come from the lonely, the lost and forgotten,
If you're eccentric, living beyond

The social etiquette of populist mantra,
To say and do what others demand?
Then you and I are friends in our gorgeous sublime,
To face the world, together, hand in hand.
