Short Get Even Poems

Twice they flirted,
Leaving my hopes disappointed,
Mocking,"get even" each stated,
Leaving me broken hearted,...

Luck


lady luck's rabbit foot,
lies dormant, giving no
lighthouse beacon for this
loon that has gambled his
life's wages away. Please
lady luck show me the 
light one time I beg, please
let me get even ... fudge.

What can i do but endure
This constant world of hurt
Everytime my heart beats 
The cracks get even worse
I thought that i was healing 
But little did i know 
Nothing could prepare me for 
The stinging pain of my heart
Being torn once more...

I wonder if King Donald
is an unhappy reincarnation of King George,
and now is his time to take back the royal throne
to get even with the common people
and those who would be their eyes
and ears
and noses,
smelling something rotten....

At this table, you continue to stay.
The dice have not rolled your way.
Are you going to get even today?
I doubt it.  That’s all I have to say.
There is substantial room for doubt.
It increases with each seven out.
Circumstances are not at all nice,
when your life depends on dice.

Here's egg in your beer
 Wet mud in your eye
Ants in your underwear
  Pudding filled with fruit flies 

It's what you deserve
  No more and no less
You peek through the keyhole
  When I get undressed  

I really should poison 
  Your raspberry tea
'Cos now I need worry
  You'll get even with me...

Eye of Newt and zigzag slither of snake
Let me get even with Zelma McBake
She was a bully
Down by the gully
Please turn this zombie into a garden rake!

Her spell had been sold with a guarantee
She was very disappointed with thee
I thought it would work
Sold to me by a jerk
Unhappy customer turned me into a flea!...

On a back porch the feline sat
watching a busy sewer rat
while overhead a flying bat
diplomat of their habitat
observing preying pussycat
had to get even tit-for-tat
squealing he warned that sewer rat
it took off like a scared bobcat!

How will the future
mold society?
Will life be better
or get even worse?

Global warming
means climate change
melting glaciers
and rising seas.

Confronting
refugees
at borders

will love
veto

hate?

Fred is always ready for fisticuffs
Any excuse to get even for sighs and huffs
Has bruised many knuckles to prove this to you
Daily has at least one fight, and sometimes two.

Jailed in ’92 when his best friend was dead.
We were not sure it was even good ole Fred
Could not prove it was him, I guess.
Used to get beaten up regularly by his sister Tess....

The Eagle flies straight and true

  ~ Guide my golf ball to get a few of you




__________________________________
An 'eagle' is a super score in golf.  It is
two strokes better than standard on any
one hole. For example, on a 'par-4' hole,
where 4 is the standard score, an eagle
is 2!  Even pros rarely get even one eagle
per 18-hole round of golf....

I take so little from this world,
a bread,
some spread,
little water,
some air,
that lifes me,
and dry my wares,
a little space,
to fall flat,
when I had enough of pace,
some shards to cover me,
and some books to read,
that is all I need,
why are you jealous,
of me,
dont you get even this much,
or are you worried about my billions,
which are anyway surplus....

I'm crazy for following my heart.
I'm insane for not giving up.

Pushed down.
Looked over.

At least I'm not like some,
Who are just plain pushovers.

Tear me apart,
Piece by piece.
I'll pretend it don't effect me.

But don't worry.
I do get even.

Watch your back,
Beware.

It's not a talent
But a pleasure
That I yet to dare.
But surely, I don't play fair...

Short-term hell
Long-term heaven
I cannot get even
With change ringing bells

I can live
With senses perked
Poised for change and its work
What's there to forgive?

We excel
We stay trying
Let humor seep on in
Good efforts will compel

Short-term hell
Long-term heaven
What's there to believe in?
Good change means us well

All life age
Time is kinder
We move from harsh to fair
Change is kin to stage.

.Just like me
Behave you rotten scoundrel
Out of my way I am your worst enemy capitulation
Prayers to Jesus why not
Ignoring threats to the salvation of my mind
I don't pretend
Though its like i live in Fantasy
I don't get even
The thought of revenge is the tyranny of oppose 
They combine to charcoal remnants of this worlds on fire
Beaten down,no  honor just thieves
Beaten down whats left of our home
Shout out it's our custom...

silver is the metal lesser to gold
and even gold must behold
the even more precious metal platinum
and that is what i am, numb
when i am in your prescence
nervous and tense
since i hope for your voice to come out
i stand there hoping that you won't shout.
i am silver you are the platinum
that i have spent all my days 
conforming to your ways.
so that maybe i will get the chance
to get even a small glance
at the most precious of all....

The next time you sleep don't enter your deep
And allow the creeper, into your mind he'll creep
Your inner shadows will darken as he seeks
Shredding your thoughts, internally you'll weep

He'll trawl through your secrets, no longer they'll be
Your posterity has been raped, now the creeper sees
Ones dark will get even deeper, into the abyss of your mind
This seeker of the sleep, just what will he find

The Zombie Apocalypse will be here
Stock up and barricade in there’s more to fear
For nature will get even I know to say
Double tap those head shots is the only way 

Your band of survivors need to know
Where to hold up or best to go 
For being a good guy is not enough
Having a plan and hoarding food is a must

So put your armour on
To ensure the bitey ones are gone
For each one that you put away
Know it will mean you will longer stay.

I saw her standing 
Wiping dirt on the windowpane 
My heart was throbbing 
And my soul was in pain 

For she tries to reach the beam 
Not minding the toll 
Like she tries to reach her dream 
Not minding if she will fall 

If wiping could undo the past 
So the pain does not last 
I'll let her undo my pain 
Like wiping dirt on the windowpane

If only future can meet the past 
And they can get even 
I'll let the charm that she has 
Be the anchor of my dream...

I sit watch want to weep
seeing you sitting on the street
with cane made of wood
hand carved  not very good
a banged up sign in hand
sitting unable to stand
cars just pass you by
my heart wants to cry
no one worrying how you fare
a world that does not care
two cigarettes in a empty hat
hair tangled in a mat
 you sit wish me well
as you sit for a spell
a homeless man down on his luck
hoping to get even a buck
i took him coffee wished him well
he was grateful I could tell....

I am a willow tree with branches that bend over backwards.
Love a soft breeze fluffing my leaves, and even a hard wind.
Can be a tornado when you double cross me; I get even.

I love my hobbies. Poetry, cartooning, painting, drawing, writing.
My meals are simple, I care not what clothes I wear.
I am not persnickety about anything, but I love the word persnickety.

My friends adore me, and I adore them.
I have a terrific life, I am joyful.
Unless I am sad. No one is as sad as I can be....
