Short Detractors Poems

I must warn you poets
   that savage critics are out there and that 
the world is full of inebriated 
    men and women 
Well become inebriated with poetry 
     full speed ahead and damn the detractors...

The game nicely played,
The haters laid bare
The desparate enhanced
The detractors left wondering
The strategy at level two
The masses will be chocked
Swindled and left holding on to
Nothing but bond paper.

They want an apology for subjective humor?
- What the hell do I really care?
It'd be nice to see my detractors try and do any better...
...I would like to try to...in...traduce y'all 
- To the truth of an honest opinion - Once and for all!...

Christ is still in Christmas

Faith for many survives

Science, though gaining
followers, has yet to raise
who dies…

believers call it a miracle

detractors call it lies

for me, less a 
question of
right and wrong
but of who feels loved
for blest

praising less the one 
who mends a broken 
heart, and more, The One 
who heals it best…....

Symmetry

Does the art you suffer
match images in your head?
What beauty do you see
in objects others forgot?

You hide your verse
and the sight of blood
behind your eyes

My granddaughter loves me,

that's all I need to know.

I will  let  the toffs and profs

who came my way now  go.

For all their disparagement

why should I have the slightest care?

My granddaughter loves me

and everything is fair.

Then hark  my dear detractors,

and there are many I recall,

my granddaughter loves me,

and it's   yah-boo to you all....

Come away with me my love
Come away with me my darling 
Come away with me to our new paradise
Where our love would suffer no more
Where envy and jealousy would be crucified
To rise no more 
Come away with me to our new abode
To our haven of peaceful bliss
Where we would fret no more 
Where we would be safe
To love and be loved in return 
To the chagrin of detractors 
Hell bent to destroy our immortal love
Come away my love to a new beginning...
