Short Good For Nothing Poems

A beautiful bird was soaring up high
and as I watched it adrift in the open sky
that good for nothing bird took a crap in my eye....

About the deceased say either good or nothing,
Therefore at the funeral of the deceased chief,
The subordinates  danced in full  silence,
With happy faces, but slowly with grief!...

A bratty six-year-old down in Carlsbad
makes his poor, haggard mother so mad!
He'll be good for a buck
but his mom shouts: Good luck!
Just be good for nothing like your dad!

It is hard to be a Flake
Melting under pressure
Turning to slush

Good for nothing
But to slip
Some one up

Grimy and gross
Ground under boots
Everyone treads on me just because I can't stand the heat!...

His wife called him a good for nothing rat
         As in his armchair old Jim sat,
    Jim retorted with a very broad grin,
 You know you will never get a double chin,
Because all that exercise is bound to kill fat....

Can't breathe through your nose with your tongue hanging out
Bet you tried, found you could, but it looks like a dog's snout
Sorry, that wasn't nice
I apologize thrice
Don't trust me again, I'm a good-for-nothing lout...

If all the pretty girls were good,
And all the good girls were pretty...
Then Mbabane wouldn't be such a ruined
Pathetic good for nothing city.

But the good girls are not all pretty,
And the pretty girls are seldom good...
If you look closer to the men in the city:
That is what got them ruined....

I can't resist evertthing called temptation
Its contagious like flu
I sometimes fall like a child
But don't call Me a fool
Even if I know its not cool
Its my past I no longer live there
It all new here
I hope you can see it clear
Am no longer the good for nothing ben
Am all changed
Free from the den of self hate....

i'm caught up in this world
where no one thinks i'm great
neither can i do something great with my life
even my dear friend thinks i'm good for nothing
may be that's the reason i feel good 
everytime we split up for something
i'm living in the whirlwind of hate
i only have my talents to console me
in the depths of my solitude...

Things are materials
they are things
are meant for our fun
no eyes see none

Use for our needs
books for our reads
they never feel 
we keep on running

Good or bad
they know nothing
we see for our sake
keep on boarding

Nothing is good and  
nothing is bad
on use and utilization
good and bad depends

Things are materials
they are things.......

Poem Becomes A Novel

So, I am a novel and not a poem
That is what I said and I am never wrong!
So get that through your head!
You say I am a good for nothing poem
So What!  So sue me!
With a bazooka aimed at the head 
One might change their mind
Question?..... What am I now?...
A poem or a novel?
I hope you get it right this time...

A-nger begets quarrel, 
N-o good ever, nothing right; 
G-rudge causes cold war, 
E-nding the flame of 
L-ight. 

Z-one of love though 
A-ffects the home of anger; 
P-ure heart beats in harmony, 
A-t dawn seventeenth October. 
T-ry to feel like lamb, 
E-ver gentle in action; 
R-elieve the hate to be meek, 
O-pen your heart to emotion....

I try to compose myself when in your presence

But it seems i get perceived as a good for nothing peasant

I just long for that person to hold 

But in the night im left feeling cold



I just struggle to move fourth with my life

Taking those bad nights in my strife

My heart bleeds everyday

I can’t take it that I had to put you down to lay...

Walking in shadows

Difficult to stand 
When they fall

Too hard to raise
 When they fail 

Too good for nothing

What other choice
Do they have 

Weakness is better
Than challenge 
They prefer

Always on same 
Place 

Anything new is a 
Disturbances

Anything based on 
Power is a fault 

They prefer
only to be 

Walking in shadows...

everybody thinks it's wrong
for my little brother to emulate me
so i go alone
none of my nephews wants to be like me
i go alone
yearning for vindication
maybe it's just now
may be in time,the Lord will
let them see who i really am
that i'm not good for nothing at all
instead i'm more than my two brothers 
put together
i'll be the best after my vindication...

FOR JAN, MY SUPPORTIVE FRIEND :) 

I have one silly friend on Manhattan
Or is it Mad Hatter or Isle of Man?
I keep forgetting
But she won't letting
Or is it let me, in any case, I am her man.

This was a good-for-nothing limerick
But I have an excuse: I am sick!

***

With an enormous wink
from your second husband

I know what you are going through;

For your grief is great and rough,

Even your family and friends have forsaken you !

That you are a good for nothing fellow.

Please wait, the reward is at the doorstep.



It is a long time since  you started crying;

Every time praying and fasting;

But your answer seem to be nowhere !

That you are now under desperation.

Please wait,the reward is at the doorstep....

the mountain snow that fell last night
melting quick in morning light
the wind blows hard and is so cold
desert winters like this we know

another Christmas put away
empty boxes left at bay
another New Year rolls around
with Champagne pops and tooting sounds

what's in store for me next year
I hope all good with nothing to fear
what comes to me I know I'll handle
if I have to light a prayer candle...

Injecting the poison altering the perception
Reality fades  turned into transparent reflection

Shuffling through orchards of illusion
All the senses suffering a revolution

Daydream, silent scream all turned to steam
Awaiting for another feed to be the redeem
And further into the point of gleam
Is it so good or nothing even understood

Cheating the constants or constants manipulating me
There was she.....

When your heart stops a beating and you run into a wall
a wall of fear, disbelief, of never ending misery. 
when your heart stops a beating and you think you've lost it all
you lose your way, forget your faith, and slowly start to fall.
so say goodbye one last time, oh say goodbye to me,
just remember my good friend nothing is as it seems, 
words can embrace you, forever erase you, 
or make you believe in the end .......

One day number nine sat dejected
in a corner, tears welling up eyes,
"I am good for nothing, I should die."
Number zero came and said "Look at 
me, I am zero but happy for 
I am a beautiful creation
of creator, crafted  perfectly
for a unique, specific purpose.
By crying you are demeaning God"

H     High time to,
A     Amend your mistakes for them.
P     People have hope,
P     People have envy in them,
Y     Your deeds will be the answer.
N     Noticing or not,
E      Encouraging or not,
W     Wary to your responsibilities.
Y      Your patience and dedication will destroy their,
E      Enigma : " you are good for nothing".
A      And they will start,
R      Readily welcome you as they will welcome new year....

it's me they dream of
in their half sleeps
why me?
even the kids ridicule me
only the maids adore me
it's me they yearn to kiss
the beauty princesses don't see future with me
i cry,because i'm all alone
no one sees my tears 
because i'm out of love
and i don't have any friends
i'm smart,with no one to trust
why me?
old friends dis me for my past
punks warn their girls about me
why me?
my mama thought i was good for nothing...

I taste your meek cravings;
your numbing friction of desire
you are my fiend;  my devil;
my good-for-nothing share
of saddle-sore pleasure.

I let your unrighteous lips
savor my own
with shameless animation
letting your fingers
incinerate me entirely
as your name escapes
my tongue-
entangled in a moan.

your embrace propels me
again to the
bottomless hell.

please, let me sink deeper-
tasting Purgatory-
feeling Heaven....
