Foolproof recipe faux fudge

Who wants to be called
foolish even for starters?

Proof is recipe's enunciation!

Premium Member Faux Doc

there once was a man of great ambition
who pretended to be a physician 
	his intent lascivious
	she was not oblivious
he’s serving 20 to life in prison

Premium Member Whitney 2 - Faux Distance

I wander
        In barbed circles
          Seeking grace
         In faux distance-
           Looking back
          In wry dismay… 
My baggage has followed me

Faux Pulchritude Idol

*nocturne eye flicker*
*bite lip*
*rip asunder*

Malediction of a tragedy fused elegy,
mirror of red rum and visage of chaos.

The truth is a labyrinth of mirrors,
I am the reflection that stares back,
real you tryst behind quicksilver.

Peace From Faux Holes

lie’s carry away                                                                                                     
calm before storm messengers                                                                              
ocean fronts to desert

Premium Member Faux Fall


           
This early August morning pleases me.
With welcome hints of fall, it teases me.
The pleasant breeze provides a sweet relief
from summer’s heat. Although it will be brief,
I’ll relish every moment of this day.
It’s summer! Soon the heat will have its way.

Premium Member Don'T Forget

Don’t forget
I tried and did
My best
I gave it all
And more
Don’t forget
When you
See my picture
That this man
Lived ten lives
Took the pain
Of ten men
But felt the
Love of none
Don’t forget
I was just
a man
Of flesh
And sin
Foibles
And Faux pas
Don’t forget
This man
Was your
Dad

Faux Reality

The real enjoyment is in green,
you’ll love its speaking silence,
play once and you’ll forget the screen
where you innocently learn violence.

Live some precious moments with family,
peep out of the virtual world for once
you’ll get solution to each anomaly
and will reunite with the real loved ones.

Faux Celebrity

People often talk about 
the heat and torture of hell
I'm currently living in one 
with the only excitement here daily
is the Courthouse Bell

Politics hidden like a stitch
People wearing costumes camouflaged
to look like the rich

Last names worn as a badge of fame
Fake celebrities walking amongst
the poor people
While their banking accounts are the same

Premium Member A Social Faux Pas

Pardon me sir, but did you not just break wind?
Pardon me sir, but don't you feel a bit chagrined?

Pardon me sir, but I deem your faux pas mighty gross!
Pardon me sir, but you've left me feeling a bit morose!

Pardon me sir, but on this bus we don't enjoy your sop!
Pardon me sir, may I suggest you de-bus at the next stop!

Faux pas

Starmer when said 'return of sausages',
He just meant safe return of hostages.
Yet, in this world of words
Where actions are rare birds,
Gaffes rule, tongues slip with faux passages!

Poet’s note: The UK Prime Minister Starmer called for the return of sausages, which soon went viral. Sure, he meant hostages. But in this world of words and words and little action, what else can be expected?
