We Apache take owls in a storm as a warning
This owl was exceptionally fierce looking
I cringed, instantly thinking of death and destruction
I could hear the wind’s anger
I cringed as she reached for a prune
in June as we gazed at the moon,
I kissed her before
she ate any more,
and knew she'd be running off soon...

Were Startled and Cringed
We had become startled and then cringed,
Loser Trump lashed out and was unhinged;
We would wonder,
About his thunder;
His stupid hair looked ugly like it is singed.

my skin cringed
to see your eyes
watery
and thin
foolish me
to think you would speak to me
aqain
i thought you should
speak aqain
i wait
and waited
and i am waiting
to see if you let another murmur escape
creepy crabby Cruella was a cracking crackpot
criticizing creatures until they cringed on the spot
cruel and crosswise, Cruella earned exactly what she got
a crazy, crusty, crotchety old man who smoked yesterday’s pot
born a charlatan
he swindled people
spent his life thieving and stealing
never had a paying job
quackster always had a gimmick
get-rich-quick scheme
took lots of honest guys’ money
we cringed when he came to family reunions
The overgrown Amazon ape
With his furry tree trunk wide nape
Flew over wearing a red satin cape
Birds cringed at his cumbersome shape
He carried a bag made of crepe
In plum, fuchsia and possibly grape
A fancy one-of-a-kind hairy ape
Kenya’s Goddess came in hard and fast
With wind that ruffled the grasses of the savannas
The trees felt her presence and cringed
Wondering if she would uproot them
She is all powerful they warned the animals
The lions stayed to watch, but the meerkats hid
Kenya’s Goddess came in hard and fast
With wind that ruffled the grasses of the savannas
The trees felt her presence and cringed
Wondering if she would uproot them
She is all powerful they warned the animals
The lions stayed to watch, but the meerkats hid
Prickly green crow with fuzzy eyes crept into the meadow last night
Purple thistles cringed when they saw who it was, they knew him.
He was notorious for swallowing their buds and shoots in gulps.
Does he have a name? A cringing wildflower asked. Scared shootless.
I was frozen in place when
I felt it “bite me” – a nip
On my neck from a pesky
Mosquito – oh no!
I couldn’t move to kill it,
So I stayed still. But cringed when
I saw the mosquito land
On Deborah’s nose!

Bit Deborah Burch
I cringed when I saw her coming straight toward me, she was kamikaze cat.
She did not care who she took out, but she was swifter than a bat.
Fearless, ready to die too, she brutally crashed into my terrified plane.
As we walked into heaven she had the nerve to ask me my name.
Goddess of the moon, called into existence from the sea
flowing locks blowing in the wildness of the wind
who had conjured her and why?
Sea foam welcomed her; feeling her magnificence
The warlocks who had summoned her, cringed a bit
Witches came forth and claimed her, as their own
Cupid's arrow strikes at high noon,
chocolates melt 'neath the bright moon.
Our fate is sealed—a sweet typhoon,
its winds carrying us afar.
Our hearts danced through candle's warm glow,
scars hid pain, which we did not know.
Our souls cringed—a warning throe,
And yet here we are.
A tiny mouse tip-toed cross my path
Arose immediately my wrath
Set for him, a pungent mousetrap
Filled with muenster cheese
Tingling all over, anticipating a bloodbath
I cringed at myself, a bona fide psychopath
Gloating over the creature's perceived unease
How dare he forget to say "Please?"
white as a wedding cake and bride’s satin dress
feathers as whimsical and frothy as white lace
delicate and delightful, the dove flew into the room
bringing a sense of peace and joy, hope hanging on her edges
the hawks were disturbed; they wanted war and turmoil
they cringed a bit, feeling that God was in the house
In vile defeat I confided to helplessness
I cringed knowing I know so little
As inadequate as I am I felt responsible
I felt responsible to know everything
In this mentality I suffered long nights
Over thinking myself and overlooking life
Until I gave up the pain for a little while
And took a deep, dark look to the other side
before barristers
bone-busting brouhahas broached
barbaric bedlam
comely charwomen
cringed contemplating cruel
commonplace cudgelings
dank dungeons deterred
disorderly drunken dolts
dissuading dissent

Innocence
You entered my room. I cringed at your sight. I knew you would soon become,
The monster of the night. I closed my eyes tight, maybe you would fade away. But instead you stole my innocence away.
My mother took in her brother, a stray. He slept in the basement isn't that where all creepy things lay?
By: Debra easterling
On the first floor of a hotel in Cape Cod
A larger than average lady got on the elevator
She pressed floor number two
Immediately I blurted out “Number two???”
“You could have walked”
Her immediate response was
“What??? And lose a pound!”
My new wife first cringed
then breathed a big sigh of relief
Sometimes I blurt out stuff without thinking
VERY DANGEROUS!!!
It’s half past midnight and there is again an existing creep
Visually obscured but couldn’t get a sleep
Frightfully terrified trying horribly to get a peep
Scared of looking even but have to breathe deep
The dogs all over began to woof
Jittered nervously could hardly even move
Suddenly cringed but have to have a proof
At last, of all people it was her all along, the crooked goof
Took an assertiveness training class in 1981
Did not do well
Failed it
Swiftly went from passive to agressive
during six scenarios
left bunch of people lying on the floor moaning
they could never explain the difference between assertive and agressive to me. They tried. Believe me they tried.
I stepped over them gingerly
and demanded my money back from the secretary
who cringed and flinched when she saw me coming.
It has been too long since my last rhyme
And how I missed the soup
In which each taste portrays the time
Of every cry,yell,laugh and whoop
Hey there fella
Get me under that
Umberella before it rains them dogs
And cats
Again? Foal thing!
I promise I wont leave you alone again
Like the last time you cringed
When I slowly let that rusty door open
Let me weep weep weep
While you rhyme rhyme rhyme
Oh ,how rich would I be
If I heard that with every dime!
The ocean cringed
Its body being violated
Over and over again
Nobody stopped it, only watched
With eyes filled with a disgusting lust
The ocean closed her eyes
And endured the pain
It was necessary
In trade, she'll go back to paradise
Every day, looking at her sky
The sky with curious brown eyes
And wonderful blonde hair
One violator fills her with trash
The next extinguishes a cigarette
On her already bruised body
But she endures it
Knowing better days are coming
