Premium Member Why Is Pink For Girls

With color names I get the gist; Pink colors are for girls like, “Mist”. But what about the men? Every now and then Pink could be “Sebaceous Cyst”.

Premium Member Musing on De Niro

I saw something subtle, in Mr. De Niro
I get the gist Trump, is just not his hero.
He’s not a good fella, and not his godfather;
And was sure the election, would be a big slaughter.

This Poem Is About Changing Perception With a Word

Adolph Hitler was right












handed

wasn't sure about this one
but then its just a play on words
probably using the worlds most evil person
was a bit extreme
but you get the gist

Premium Member On the Back of a Spirit

On the back of a spirit
We'll rise or fall
Or say damn man
The hell with it all.
I get the gist
And twirl and twist 
To soak in the stupid:
A flick of the wrist.
Gov'nor blankets 
pomp and photo-op
Or immeasurable vapidity
like defunding cops.
I plaster my fat face
In front of y'all, 
and say
Hey man welcome 
To the start of the Fall.

Premium Member Escape from the City

Honking cars and shaking fists.
I can't take much more of this.
I hear it clearly, get the gist, 
"Hey A...h...!"

It is stressful and it's gritty.
Life here is not so pretty.
Scraping by in the city
is a hassle. 

Ah, in the country, I'd feel the breeze...
A little bird flits down from the trees
He opens his beak as if to sneeze
and... "Hey A...h...!"

Premium Member I Get the Gist of This

I get the GIST OF this EXPERIENCE 
Make it known!  From my FINGER to
My THONE! Yes! I get it!  Life?
I get it. Many times it IS merciless 
And unforgiving. And I get it. Keep your
Priorities in check. Do not ever 
NEGLECT the introflect. I GET THE GIST
OF THIS EXPERIENCE CALLED LIFE. 
That IS the GIST OF THIS!! WAIL UP
WILD OUT!! RAISE UP! MOVE ON!
THAT IS the WAY.

Premium Member Soup's the Place

This Valentine’s clandestine
And hidden‘s every tryst
Encoded rhyme, each one sublime
he's sure to get the gist

Love letter’s fly, the bold and sly
In every line’s a kiss
Don’t wonder why, no need to cry
You’ll get your share of bliss

The Soup’s the place, you'll find the grace
Love thirsty all are we
So let love go, let your Love know
We’ll act like we don’t see! ;)

Premium Member Stick Out Our Neck

Don’t forget
We have a neck
To stick out
From time to time

It’s an asset
Though not high tech
Yet it shows
We have a spine

We have to shout
Get the gist out
As a poet
Words are our way

There’s no doubt
We’ll find the clout
And show it
With what we say

To expose wrongs
Some write apt songs
To keep powers 
In check, and

Poets stay strong
Just as long
They’re willing to
Stick out their neck

Premium Member A Perfect Day

The sky finally opened and really let fly,
Buckets of rain down from the sky.
‘
Children’s  delight: boots, hats and coats, 
Jumping in puddles, making a moat.

Water mirrors give faces a twist,
Were all soaking wet, you get the gist.

A good hot shower, and please a new story,
 How about the Jabberwocky in all its glory.

Little heads droop, still wanting to play,
Off  to bed sweethearts, a perfectly wonderful day.
Form: Couplet

Premium Member There's No Time

Our world has been stuck
in cloudy mind mist.
Einstein mused that
time does not exist.
For made up concepts
it's top of the list.
Fooled by its tick
we all get the gist.
All those lost seconds
now will be missed.
Though good ones and bad
memories persist.
Still millions will watch
each day on their wrist.
Ego won't let go
it's life's epic twist.





Einstein theorized that matter and time were 
misconstrued concepts of humans.
