Short Deposit Poems

Anger is like acid,
Harming the vessel in deposit,
Than pouring this liquid!...

When will
I ever have
the home loan deposit
while I eat smashed avocados
on toast...

Oh all the silence and
secrets that I carry
My palms are so tired

I've lost the key to my safe deposit box......

Dear Mr. Charlie Sheen.
Incredibly inebriated and mean.
Locked her in a closet.
Hope he gave her a deposit.

Nutcracker
a ballet or a tool?

Nymph
a goddess or an insect?

Pawn
Something you deposit
Or do you move it across a game board?

People say English is easy.
Sheesh!...

Deposit after deposit, memory is stored,
interest compounding anew

To transfer its balance of riches and gains
—avarice must first bid adieu

A flatulent codger named Frank
Passed wind as he queued in the bank
When he made his deposit
He shuffled like a hobbit 
The stench as he left was so rank

Diaphragm Do Cram

So it would not become some sexual scam,
I did delicately deposit a dainty diaphragm,
Pressure it exerts,
And always hurts,
And not only that deeply did have to cram.

Key Did Deposit

Badly by her I was treated
Each time when me she greeted
So I shut her in a closet
Safely key did deposit
Off my list her I deleted.

(Maybe this should have Tweeted.)

Sir Elton (my Keeshond) ate a raw prune
Couldn’t get out of the house, none too soon,
Left me a deposit
Actually, was it
Putrid smell from a passing gas balloon?

Dear Ms. Lindsay Lohan,
you need a new life plan.
Betty Ford doesn't think this is a joke, 
so lay off the coke....

They say that too much iron
Can cause the body stress,
Deposit in your organs,
And really cause a mess.

So I found a solution
That most folks wouldn’t guess;
I mostly wear old, wrinkled shirts,
Buy permanently pressed.

Deliver the speech to avoid an explosion
Depress animosities rightful emotions
Decapitate that which would delay our cause
Desire the path made by the Lord
Disable powers to fight and defraud
Deposit the heroism that history records
Deserve the gifts of obediences reward...

I nearly trod on it
a deposit on the grass
the remains of a meal
pulled apart.
Little bones and pieces
of life lost
devoured 
by whoever
an owl perhaps 
but now spread
on the turf
for beetles
and flies -
microbial nutrients.
Creations story
displayed....

Like a freight train
She barrels in
And slams upon the shore
Bringing all her treasured gifts
Up from the ocean floor
Randomly choosing 
she makes a deposit
As if purging her depths
Or cleaning her closet
Then passively leaves
The feisty debater
Will reclaim her trove
When she returns later...

When the wind blows across the meadow
And the tops of the flowers in waves
Of three syllables deposit to escrow
The name of my bluebird to save
She's not mine at the moment to access
But my time collects interest and grows
'Til the day I can withdraw my earnings
On that day to her then will propose...

Snowy week ahead and I shall ski,

Kissing clouds, where lifts deposit me to vaulted heights.

Ice-capped peaks, snow drifts, and speckled trees,

I consume nature's eye candy, in heart-stopping bites.

Now zooming downward, my edges carve along,

Giddy that they shriek, a downhill skier's theme song!...

Your wishes can't regain,
A thrill so long ago. 
To once again reclaim 
A past you wouldn't know. 

You view a different dance, 
With unfamiliar tune 
You pine for lost romance, 
Yet treasure not the Moon.

she'll wake me up
she'll take me there

don't need plastic...
don't need a gun...

need no deposit...
my only one...

three score and ten...
breath the nearer 
in the morning

rock me...I am shakin...
breath the nearer
she heightens' my response

I take you...I take this woman
I am totally in love......

Trump Seems So Pathetic 

Can see a view of Trump that is composite,
And he stole all the money we did deposit
Seems so pathetic; 
We need a diuretic.
Wish we could shut him up like a faucet.

Her dreams are filled with lips,
lips so death kissed
with skin waxed pale
and limbs all a ‘twist.
Her dreams are filled with coffin doors,
doors left open wide,
with eyes looking back
and lips that have lied.
Her dreams are filled with calcium deposit,
deposits of decay,
it seems these dreams are filled with
the boy who died yesterday....

A night sky filled with perfume and hope
As blossoms and flowers pour out their scent
And tiny moth feet desperately grope
A night sky filled. With perfume – and hope
As the moths dodge the death of spidery rope
To deposit pollen currency, to spend every cent
A night sky filled – with perfume and hope
As dawn tears the sky, and the horizon is rent...

at the bank
let's just say
the right bank

they said But
actually it was
just one teller

told me 
sir we can't
deposit or cash

this 
because
even if this

signature were
to prove to be
positive proof

of the
intended
sender we

still have
to ask
why

it was
tattooed
on the left

side
of your
ask...king

Wild blueberries taste 
beyond the pale
of domestic cultivars,
sweetness cut by granite acidity
underlain by the spice 
of marginal existence.

A blueberry’s destiny
is realized through consumption.
I satisfy as many as I can
to deposit their future
a couple portages down
tomorrow. 



An older poem recycled as it fit's Roy's contest to a "P"...
