Short Groveling Poems

Aggressive, brave, confident
distinguished emperor
fighting groveling hyenas
intimidating jackals
killing large mammals
nimble, overpowering
pouncing quickly,Roaring
stalking the usually vulnerable wildebeast
'xasperating young zebras...

arrogance
                   insolent, hoity-toity
          domineering, flawing, insulting
haughtiness, pomposity, humbleness, grace
            groveling, praising, craving
                   profound, modest
                          humility...

Observe patiently the ways of one single fish.
then serve up savagery slayed for a dish.
Moving and seeking it,s own purpose in paradise!
Ending to a groveling alein race who sacrifice!
Awake!try abstaining from eating living souls.
Taste the earths wondrous miracles.
Bake!fry!boil!deep frozen bowls!
not a crust wasted on this earths cycles!...

Vaccine game we are not winning
The COVID-19 vaccines
A mess in kansas

I follow all leads
Begging groveling pleading
No roads lead to shots

Hours on the phone
Waiting lists of twelve hundred
I reluctantly give up

God has His own plan
I grovel big one more time
Got vaccine today

Perpetually learn
Let go let God again
Relearn it always...

When you make me cower I am
Less than a negative
Less than nothing
Less than wretched

When I false praise you I feel
Like a coward
Like a groveling animal
Like you're dutiful pet

When I finish cooking and cleaning for you
I'm tired but I smile
I'm hungry but I fein
I let you take me and I cry

It's my job 
I am your wife
How I wish for the strenghth
to take you life....

(The world’s fasted growth industry)

“While the shopkeeper
displays his wares,
for the whole world
to peruse!”

In infamous sway
behind the ostentation
lives the truth of his
draconian sweat!
The attestation of
wholesale systems
groveling in strategic
mayhem, created to
delegate accountability
to the lowest common
denominator!

Sweep then across the flowing sea of time
to stand unseen amid a stinking horde
and there behold the rich who turn away 
or groveling poor that vaguely beckon—
surveying misery's grimy bounds of each.

Wretched feeble ones of withered limb
and clouded eye—ladies in their rags—
ignored by ones who might have paused and bent
but never did, to burden beggars' bowls, 
nudging them from darkness into light....

though they sought the gentle verse
a wracking pain drew up their purse 
as thoughtless sovereigns hissed their curse 
the dollars drained; their feign- rehearsed

this tragic dismantling 
ever-torn fabric seams 
flowing a pious demand of the feed 
groveling majesties 
planted their effigy 
cordially under the pew cushion seats

stating repeat 
loving the myrrh 
silent decree
ebony spurs...

To dream…..

Of how I can put a smile on another 
human’s face.
And not be one groveling in media 
and it’s sad disgrace!


To make a genuine difference in this 
violent world.
Not a lost soul,caught in hideous
political,lies and swirls!

The world knows not,that this is Holy
Saturday.
It honors dishonest men,and punishes 
the good~vanquish them with your 
blessings in every way.

i'm so addicted
there's no support group for what i want
grueling hunger
burning desire
such a cliche
heart pounding 
my addiction
why can't i get away?
consuming my thoughts
my wishes, my dreams
taking over my life
im so obsessed
you're so wrong for me
why are you constantly in my head???
i'm sick!
so screwed up
like a crack addict
groveling at your feet
i want you
she has you
but i need you...

When we first met, I was
  caring
  sharing
  loving
to you 
 
After awhile together, you were
  abusing
  bruising
  confusing
to me 
 
Now that I'm alone, I am
  groveling
  cowering
  cringing
to everyone
 
Blows that bruise the face
 can heal without a trace
But words keep their ugly embrace
 that time can never erase
Feeling worthless is a place
 that takes real strength to ever out race....

The light is on
In the heart of a pumpkin
The center is fresh

The middle carries a doom
Within its known creepiness

The beating nature
Of the inside’s confines
Flickers with a candle

The groveling heard
Increased with each footstep
A quirky smile given

The Jack-O-Lantern brings fear
To the people that pass by

No matter the pain
An individual my possess
It won’t compare to this

The wind is in from lost town,
it is as thin as a knife edge.
Razor beaked gulls
twist their necks, rolling
in the gritty bluster.
Lost town sinks beneath
churning clouds,
its smokestacks
just above each
new wave of despair.
The people there
have misplaced their lives,
and if they only had time
they would out-scream the gulls,
but a groveling grind
keeps them turning iron wheels,
or shoveling dry clinker
into long rusted buckets
of hope....

I gazed long upon the glass, full of mixed drink.
Sparkling light crystal and smooth as long mink.

It glides down the palate, soothing as it goes.
Then bites like a viper, the beginning of many woes.

It stings like a bee ... strange things I then see.

Sprawled on the ground, groveling in the dirt.
They hit me and hit me, but I was not hurt.

They beat me and beat me. I felt nothing I think.
When I wake up, I will look for more drink.
