Premium Member Backyard Hopscotch

Listen to poem:
I once tried hopscotch in reverse,
Backwards it went from bad to worse.
My hop was scotched,
My stone was botched,
I fell head over heels adverse!

Premium Member Anna the Bandit

Anna the bandit and shady jane
set out to rob a railroad train.
So, they went for the gold.
Then botched the escape.
In for ten, no parole,
Makin license plates.

Feeble Trump called out Joe Biden
He’s messed up and always hidin'
Who botched Pacific 
Is not terrific
And his approval’s now slidin'!

Premium Member auto mechanics botched work

mistake was worst than a bungle or blunder or ****
totally botched, mishandled and mismanaged
auto mechanics excuses put dad in a funky huff
his Ford was in worst shape now, totally damaged

Trump Did Have Difficult Time

Trump Did Have Difficult Time

Trump did have a horrible time reading;
His brains botched up and hair receding;
Lost cause,
Fingers knaws;
Raving and up river again us was leading.

Premium Member Samantha Has a Fashion Knack

Samantha can take blue jeans and turn them into a work of art.
I can try to do the same thing, and it looks botched, not at all smart.
She had on jeans today with lace inserts that were darling and cute.
If I tried it, mine would be a disaster. People would make fun and hoot.

Relatively Irrelevant

Frail and pale, oh! Can't you tell
That I have suffered a botched romance?
With open Heart, invited Hell
Though I assumed a fighting stance

But thus I learned, though I was burned,
(Always I succumb to fascination)
Perspectives glib, my Mind- a sieve! 
I mistook Love for Infatuation

There Was a King of Plugglup

There was a king of Plugglup
                                   His queen was not so grown-up
                                               She in a hurry
                                          Botched up the curry
                               And showed her broiled bottom up.

Outlandish

OUTLANDISH Water waning over vacant pages of an outlandish mind Tide stalling in time bending frayed layers of split rhyme Hide shrinking behind an Infamous botched up self crime Land shifts sifting toward trails of an outlandish mind © Kim van Breda—9 December 2015

Strangled Dictum

you panted for air as panic pained 
   as the young life in you drained
   a ghastly gagged youthful life 
   strangled dictum…

   and relatives chocked with grief
   as friends shocked with disbelief
   seeing your destiny you would not reach
   strangled dictum…

   a budding jasmine brutally butchered 
   a blameless young life beastly botched
   a blossoming rose harshly hacked
   strangled dictum….

Premium Member If Only Dreams Came True

Putins botched invasion is going south 
I think NATO should give him a way out 
Chocolates stuffed with TNT
And then set off remotely 
As he stuffs them in his fat evil mouth... 

Be music to our ears to hear him scream
But sometimes in life things aren't what they seem
I came to with loud beeping 
Was woken from my sleeping 
And sadly it turned out to be a dream...

Botched Words

I believe...
I see...
I think...
I feel...
Therefore I am. I am. I am.
Flesh & blood. Bone & hair.
My words aren't mixing, aren't rhyming, aren't anything.
Failed attempts to s-p-e-a-k.
Each letter is blotchy & black.
My mouth is filled with Rorschach tests.
Can you find the hidden meaning? Do you see a giraffe or brains blown against 
the wall?
"I thought I knew", she said with a faint smile.
"Oh honey you never knew..."

Too Much Pride

When someone doesn't know you like you thought they did
All they do is act out like a kid

Truth starts to decease
Lies spread like disease

No matter how bad it gets botched
All you can do is watch

Be true and try
Don't be blue
Soon or later they were going to turn on you
Real ones never leave your side
They're there for you, not the ride
All the others can kiss your behind
All started with one person having too much pride.

Premium Member Pro Life Chop Shop

Pro life chop shops
sanctity botched
chain your baby makers
inspect your baby’s crotch 
laws ban
lives hang
hangers wrought and bought
the worst of how we’re natured

belts
you’re just another notch

fit in
or sin
resisting a rest
existing erased
pop up chop shops
for furl of brow and fraught 
the worst of how we’re natured

belts
you’re just another notch

Projection

The white light across this man made lake gives me something to watch.
As the people i thought liked me enough to be around me have the time of their lives without. 
The loneliness brings me more comfort than being around a batch of judging eyes that their smiles don’t reach.
Their botched happiness is obvious to me.
As I’m about to graduate they all decide to scratch me to comfort themselves.
But I’m the one out of all of them who will truly end up happy with myself.

Humanity's Innuendo

Ecosystems are being strained
We stand alone as the culprit
Every night when I have prayed
I wake up and see they've botched it

In less than a year from now
It will reach the Atlantic
Dolphins, crabs and the sea foul
Will die before we panic

These black tides will devour
Killing pristine mating ground
Poison our shores every hour
Shutting our blue oceans down

Finger pointing will continue
Cleanups impossible, they say
Humanity's  innuendo
Is riding on the tides today
