Premium Member Give it a rest

There are behaviors that I detest
From people who preach that their work's the best
Lines of gobbledygook
Reads like a boring book
Time to give their arrogant pen a rest

Mixed Precipitation

Snowy, slushy mess,
driving now a test,
snowy, slushy mess,
heart is in my chest,
snowy, slushy mess,
please be a quick guest,
snowy, slushy mess,
all snow would be best,
snowy, slushy mess,
sky, give it a rest!

‘cause this stuff is terrible.

Acute-On-Chronic Bumper Sticker Deficiency

Politics season
Sans rhyme and reason
Never-ending blitz
Constant News Network
Won’t give it a rest

Traffic today
Bumper stickers’
Noted absence
Relief, not grief

Excitement 
Is absent
Root against

Trump chump
Hill pill

Lose.

On Seeing Mame

Some things would be better unsaid.
Some fads never should have survived.
Some books would be better unread.
Some plays never should be revived.

I saw a production today
And this show failed my comatose test.
If the years aren’t kind to a play,
My advice is – just give it a rest!

Hidden Yet Searching

I want to talk to you
but I just run away
to try to prevent you from seeing

I'm afraid to be crushed
but don't want to lose
and needlessly push you away

I give it a rest
to wait and see
how it will turn around

Someday we'll see
where I will be
and if you're still around


Premium Member Plain **** Rude

narcissists with huge egos slither and slink ~ hmmm, what would Rumi think

a sly smile on their lips, thinking it's a disguise ~ not from many eyes

having an overly aggressive attitude ~ it's just plain a-rse rude

they are like lemons with sour zest ~ for goodness sake, please give it a rest

Sweet Shirts

"Sweet shirts!" they scream
as you pass wearing green
bright and so proud it hurts.
Good job wearing shirts.

Women with vests,
partially exposed chests,
I say, "Give it a rest!
Put away your chests!"

I once ate fruit,
since I thought it was cute,
and though it looked real good,
it was made of wood.

Now my mouth's sore,
and I just have no more
dish from which to serve dirt,
so I say, "Sweet shirts."

Is This Real Life

I try to work the pain away
I go to the gym everyday
Maybe I’ll sweat you out
Find out what true love is really all about
And then I’ll go away
I pray to the gods I don’t believe in to make it stop
Tell the voices to give it a rest,
My time is ticking on the clock
Can’t stop thinking about the ticking from my watch
Is this what life is like?
If it is than I will fight 
With all of my might 
For something more of a delight
Form: Verse

Chat-Room Blues

Sauntered into the chat-room site
looking for conversational delight;
But what I found, depressingly,
was no one much interested in me;
first room in, what happened there?
It quickly emptied into silent air;
second one was not much different,
it turned into time not well spent;
several tries and none was better,
made me wonder, then to fretter;
decided to give it a rest for while,
next time won’t post my pic profile.

Premium Member Sam the Eligible Bachelor Cat

Sam was the fluffiest Tom on the Parisian block
The tittering of females was found around the clock
They came into Starbucks at a quarter until eight
Giggling and gaggling, which he did not appreciate

Give it a rest, Sam thought, as he tried to read his book.
They were older ladies, giving him a “come hither look”.
He was tired of being married, he had done it six times before.
He would always amble home to Mama at a quarter to four.

When Things Are Not Meant To Be

What would have pumped life to a dulling heart
   What could have been the realization of a dream, 
What should have made better tomorrows than today, 
   Came a little too late, so it seems.

         Give it a rest
      And be contented.

For who’s to know what there is today
   Amounts somewhat much lesser
When there is naught one righteous
   To judge which is better, 
And in thus may regret be unhanded, set free
   When things are not meant to be.

Yes I Cry

Shed a tear
no me not cry
why
does it make you
feel weak inside

I shed a tear  
when I feel pain
emotions mixed
its not a game

its just a part
of what makes me me
I shed a tear when
my heart screams

Shed a tear Oh yes I cry
I wont keep it all bottled
up inside

Shed a tear oh yes I do
you should shed a tear or two
release the stress trapped
down in you

So shed a tear to break the stress
Now get off my back and give it a rest

Give It a Rest

Silly me

I stayed right up until the end

The final credits

Probably the last to leave

For fear i may just miss 
something that never ends
up happening

Apart from sloppy seconds or
drunken leftovers such as myself

But it's like playing numbers
on the lottery

Once in you just can't stop

Just incase one's numbers
actually come up or something
happens that probably never will

Like meeting the one or winning
anything more than my ticket
money back
