Short Gnash Poems

I went to the bank for some cash
But tellers were having a gnash
The ATM died
The Manager cried
And said he'd be back in a flash...

Our nation is starting to seethe
Because far too many can't breathe
We should be united
Instead we're incited
Not to smile, but to gnash our teeth!...

Hold me back before I succeed

Hold me back before I blossom

Hold me back before I implode

Hold me back before I gnash my teeth and bite your arm off

Hold me back...

I eased in bed,
she began to fed,
I felt warm melons,
she started growing talons,
as I soothed on cherries,
she made me wary,
it was her teeth,
that had gnashed,
and sunk in a hungry crash,
I diengaged and made a dash....

Test has an end
Problems has a solution
Pain has a cure
You can overcome anything
If you trust God.

Not every battle you have to fight
Sometimes, being silent
Can make you win
Let them stress a lot
Let them gnash their teeth in envy....

     March is Nature’s Halloween
        treats us to a winsome Spring day
     while she forecasts snowstorms on the way

     In between a tornado or two
        just to make you gnash your teeth
    Winter’s parting trick bequeathed

under the bed
and in the closet 
they gnash their teeth

sharpening their fangs
so they can chew my flesh as I sleep
i stay awake as long as I can shivering in fear

finally drifting off the dreamland
as i begin to close my eyes
the closet door starts to open...

The Bear and the Wolf howling in the night
Formed out of clouds, extending their might
They gnash their fine teeth and they scare away stars
The bear and the wolf, moonlight devils with scars
Their dark furry outlines silhouetting the night
If you are not scared, may I turn out the light?...

Many brazen men have 
failed to win her sanctity;
shouting foolish taunts
to vex The Fays of Chastity.

How eager they are 
to gnash and gnaw
the bones of 
The Strange-Very Strange,

and how willing they are to wager 
away precious wit and whim
to win a prophetic poet bride 
for the musing of Taliesin.

I'm in this 
in this now
love from a demon 
a succubus
how she likes to knot
that rope around my neck
pulls me tight
for a kiss 
and a bite
I'm in it now
and I start to cry 
oh demon lover 
how my teeth gnash
she makes me live 
to suffer this
her nails in my flesh
I'm in it now 
and welcome death...

A snaking mouth sloughs two spines;
the rattle of vertebrae.

A woman learns to ride them, feels
the trombone slide of a dragon’s tail.

A man lifts on tip-toe
not wanting to fumble.

They knit lusts to opening prayers,
cadavers to body bags, 
close a gnash of gaping space -

block a cold throat
from an exposed face....

I no longer like Nash,
At him teeth gnash;
A chance and his head bash
For being grossly rash
In his spending of cash
Over a bought sash

All his reasons “Thrash”
To him like a child trash!

I shall no longer see Nash,
For it shall end in a crash,
Now quite sure he’s brash…

Indeed, this way Nash
To another I’ll dash!...

Cold hard fingers
Crush souls
Powerful fiery teeth gnash—
Death rains down on the
Flowers, trees
Playing children
Somber houses
 
Silence, after the roar of the waves
The groan of the shaking
Silence, full of danger that cannot be announced
 
Fallen, we are
Unable to form a new world
In the midst of the rubble of the old...

I am rooting for Snidely Whiplash
Tie up sweet Nell and give her a gnash.
Silly Dudley Do-Right
Simply isn’t that bright.
Snidely, turn him into cornmeal mash.

Good villain, it is your turn to win.
Wipe off Dudley Do-Right’s ridiculous grin.
Leave her on the tracks
With their clickety clacks
Follow me, Whiplash. Do I hear an Amen?...

Draw near and listen—
the interminable din—
thunderous and raging,
spindrift riven from
graybeards’ snowy crests,
that plunge at journey’s end,
their whitest teeth laid bare,
to gnash with boundless fury
on patient rampart of
unyielding stones,
their mottled skin
to smooth and polish,
that these might stand,
in reverent alarm,
never to be forgotten....

they kissed and cried
and said goodbye
they swam and danced and ate
now on the tombstones where they died
we view our future fate

  we worry over juliet
and romeo brings tears
but darling we must not forget
that's us on down the years

  we fret and howl at life most foul
we gnash our teeth in pain
it won't be long and we'll be gone
cold ashes in the rain....

It’s hard to walk on slush or sleet;
It’s harder, still, to drive.
The best thing is to stay at home
To keep yourself alive.

For one false step with foot or wheel
And you may fall or crash;
But even if you’re careful,
Nerves will cause your teeth to gnash.

When winter weather happens,
Though there’s not much we can do,
It’s better to remain inside, 
Avoiding some snafu....

The earth will end in fire
So says the Sire
For in scoatch all turns ash
Ceasing the evil in gnash
Annilating all immoral bids
In Creators' stupendous deeds
But in wintry i see love
The compatible of hand and glove
For if you hustle in chill for work
 Face in musk hiding a smirk
Then a victor you are you need a coffee mug
For real man in winter conquers the rag.

‘Tis more than an artistic dilemma.

Should the color be red? Perhaps blue?
Those in control have no value over 
Me.
                      Or You.

Puppets on a string, we are-
A single word from the “chosen ones”
And we gnash our teeth.
And we shake our fists.
And we cut down 
the only people who truly understand us.

How controlled,
How broken—
‘Tis more than an artistic dilemma....

If you’re a political neophyte,
Then hear my words and hear them well.
A politician always lies.
There is no truth in him to tell.

You’ve a choice of bad or even worse,
And very little in between.
Since Honest Abe there have been few
Who weren’t controlled by a machine.

A machine controlling him with cash
That wants everything to go its way.
No matter how you vote, you’ll gnash
Your teeth and rue your choice some day....

An orison to hope
Shattered into smithereens
Its keened tongues and teeth gnash and lament
A despairful cry of a cutthroat womb.

Cacophonies cry out
Cellos and violins bow, inexorable and unforgiving
Until then, of their finale the southern bells will ring;
A testimony that God has returned.

Savior of humanity,
Entwine us with arms that bleed 
For those arms' warmth and nurture
Extricates us from a demise with a lamenting dissonance....

My nails are getting long
so I might as well dig in
puncture my chest
skin this (fatuous?) doe
the scent of fresh blood wafting
as my digits wade deeper
 
I pull out a stone, smooth and
slightly porous
with a single red string
tied neatly around
Smash it, gnash it
the scarlet line frays
I catch a glimpse of
precious stuff inside
 
I chip my teeth
to chew and swallow
the glimmering mass
filling me
whole
I am illuminated, glorious
harrowed as an orphan fawn...

Men are good for the most.
Except when they are tempted by
Anger and greed.
Ambition and recklessness 
Fueling there gnash of teeth
At spit and air.
Men are corrupt.
Except when they succumb
To love.
Laying down there arms and sickles  
Seeking out the peace
Of comforts embrace.
Now is the part where I tell
 You of honor.
How you are blind to it
Unless you open your eyes to it
The faith in man we all 
Have. 
Not god but man.
Not good but human.
Not corrupt but new....
