Chance

I live with the hand
that life brings
the mistakes were mine
doctors killed the tumour
to curb the chance
of spot fires.

I Only Carry My Own Burdens Now

I no longer use my back
to carry others burdens
worry I have kicked to the curb
I carry one hour at a time
and only my own burdens now

Be aiming at not to others disturb 
We may merit the name of man

I've had whisky,beer, and herb
But they can all just hit the curb
Listen to me now
You pretty pink cow
These mushrooms are really superb!

Standing At the Bus Stop Midmorning

there's a man reading
divine Scriptures out loud.  light
shimmers on rain pools.
someone has left a sugar 
cube on the curb -- all is sweet.

Soup Herb

Read Poetry Soup's censorship blurb
And found your muse dropped dead at the curb?
Heed this advice:
Some spice is nice
A little Sage can make Soup superb

Rude Bert

There was once a man called Bert
Whose feelings of others he hurt
There were those who ignored
Others who on him deplored
That he curb his need to be curt

The Sum

sitting on the curb
waiting for a call
pondering the passing faces
with each a dream
a hope
a horror
a story like none other
and I decide
all are one at sum level

Phase

I do this phase for the physical pleasure I deserve.
Even if it is purely just torture, I will curb every curve.
I shall also embrace every encounter as a way to serve.

Trump and a Blurb

Had been hearing about a blatant blurb,
Efforts exerted so they can find an herb;
Tried and tried;
He lied and lied;
Trump's idiotic cravings it now can curb.

Hit Crucial Curb

Trump had preferred to eat a certain herb;
When he did caused him to hit crucial curb;
Heard horn honkers,
And he went bonkers;
Driving hard bargain many would disturb.

Naughty Nor Nice

The babes of bigots 
rainbows underfoot 
appealing smiles
am I doing good
tomorrow’s 
curb smashers
our baby gay bashers
innocent enough 
believing in Santa
and their parents’ love

Tell It Like It Is

To describe
     what's really there
   Curb your ego
     trim your hair

   Show more of 'it'
     than of 'you'
   Then maybe folks
     will see it too

Clerihew Schoenberg

The atonal composer Arnold Schoenberg
as an artist* no one could curb
A portraitist who never was fazed
as into the eyes we gaze

Uwa

She let down her guard
But he was a fraud
he wanted one thing
she wasn't going to give it to him
so he beat her and took it
then cast her away
now she crys on the curb 
waiting for a new day

Before Clashing

Before Clashing

Control tongue clashing standing on a curb;
At times, if sharp many are sure to disturb;
Are sure to get,
Probably upset;
Bad four letter word used contained a verb.

Trump Became Erotic Economist

Trump Became Erotic Economist

Trump soon became  an erotic economist;
Has added many more lies to his long list;
Does perturb,
And should curb;
Remove him from office is what we insist.

Curb An Herb That Does Disturb

Curb An Herb That Does Disturb

What we need to do is to try and curb,
The use of what is a hullacinatory herb;
Harm may cause;
Must loosen bras;
Can create confusion as it does disturb.

Unloved

I don't feel love 
or maybe 
I don't want to feel it 
I've become too attached 
to so many people 
then in a flash 
a turn of events 
I am let down 
thrown to the curb 
unwanted 
unloved 
once again

Without Verb Does Disturb

Without Verb Does Disturb

Each sentence usually will contain a verb,
And we know if never did it does disturb;
Is order complete,
And want to meet;
Each urge and desire to do it have to curb.

Lucille Ball

Here lies the remains of the great Lucille Ball
The best fiery redhead comedian of them all
Even after she kicked drunk Desi Arnez to the curb
Her vitameatavegamin TV episode was superb

Curb the Herb With Verve

Curb The Herb With Verve

Instead of controlling and then try and curb
California has named Marijuana as State Herb;
When there went;
Became impotent;
Smoking and use of are each correct verb.

Dissolute Permanence

I glow in the dark
In my living casket
Foul bioluminescent
Engulfed in the scent
Self-offering present
I'll curb the descent
Corpse waters relent
I'm back at the end
From this I contend
My incessant event

calling a toad a toad

Punctilious conversation
Unknown by this generation
Suggested by eager administration
Hoping to curb dancing gyration
Censorship doesn’t work in our nation
Where felons are revered in Presidential celebration
