Short Harassed Poems

There once was a chick from up north
who harassed, harangued, and so forth
  Reports had been filed
  evidence compiled
She is 'net restricted henceforth...

I have in store for you
A gun and a few bullets
take them for security
on your way to heaven
as you go through bushes
infested with demons
that harassed you on earth
wear war-mood...

Christmas Carols
 
Whenever you in any shop
they blast out the bloody carols
the business has trivialised 
us into harassed shoppers
hating carols, dreading this time 
of festivities and joy....

So my private prediction came to pass
A son, a victim of a mind overtaken and harassed
Overwhelmed by fear
The mind is cavalier
Finally broke the spell, made it through the impasse...

“If I claimed you sexually harassed me,
Who do you think they’d actually believe?
You – the convicted felon,
Or me, with my large melons?”
“You…so I might as well take what I please!”

An unpleasent dream 
Tearing at my seams 
Eyes wide open 
The nightmares truely begins 
Harassed by images of the past 
You try to cling on to some form 
of reality 
But it fades for to fast 
Salvation by way of redemption 
But the was a refusal to 
that inviation...

Clyde was harassed by a frog in his throat

   Chances of finding a cure was remote

      But much to ol' Clyde's surprise

         Doc said feed it a few flies

            Proving to be the perfect antidote

Harassed,hasselled,harried
temporarily tarried
tormented and troubled.
Yet blessed !
Feeble,forlorn or friend-less
powerless,forsaken and distressed.
Yet blessed !
Beset,burdens to confess
suffering,perhaps oppressed.
Yet blessed !
Despondent and thwarted
in frustration and failure.
Yet blessed !...

Our laughter is no longer 
Harassed under the strict metered 
Of syllabic counts

At a distance 
You neither hear a sound 
Nor a word

Yet whenever there is
A pandemonium, 
Be aware, you’re not in a flea market

But...in the mirthful grin 
Of their malicious lips,
Thank goodness, we’re now on our own!...

the last remaining vestiges of autumn
bitter clingers
parched and weary
shriveled in dismay
harried and harassed by an ill north wind
launch into oblivion
to join the sea of lifeless carcasses
on the forest floor

Greed feeds the cliché: nice guys finish last,
there is little appetite for the truth.

And do-gooders are constantly harassed,
a lesson taught to intolerant youth.

Facing a future anchored in the past,
folks are cruel, arrogant, and uncouth.

Yet, their conscience, every once in a while,
assigns a moral value to a smile....

I am not easily embarrassed
But one day I was being harassed,
for breast feeding my child on the bus.
The ignoramus caused such a fuss.
I flustered and jumped off in a huff.

On entering a shopping mall,
I noticed the shoppers stall,
while passing myself and baby Paul.
On glancing down I found
a breast, pointing at the ground.

Oops!

John Q. Squiggles, 
at the opera one eve

had a bad case of the wiggles.

He dug and he scratched. No relief in sight.
From the row behind there came giggles

Preparation H was unknown at that time.
And he felt he was being harassed

He jumped to his feet
ripped his pants on the seat

Then he was really em barrassed!

Teary eyes starring upon the night skies
Winter moon at its brightest
Time gone never coming back,
Only memories will pass by.

Alone in thoughts of emotions;
Should have,could have, too late!
Crippling mind harassed by regrets...
Soul whipped by the past.

These are the wounds of life;
Lessons of ignorance,
Listening indeed is a skill,
Life a patient teacher...

The Pain of My Neighbour 

Day and night I hear noise
I listen
listen 
noise from my neighbour's house
a cry
a loud cry
unease
torment
no help is provided
my neighbour is stranded
harassed
abused
beaten
harassed
by a drunk 
by a drunk husband
who comes at midnight
angry
furious
unreasonably
sad
is this unsolved situation
unavailable
solution.

waning wits smirked
vying voluptuous verge
meagre mood metamorphose
saucy spell's sauce
hoisted hankerings hummed
pruning punctured pukes

dark dribbles dazed
rusty reels raved
rusticating riff's creates

lanky lusts birthed
callous crisps cremated
crunched crescendos hibernated

crumbling contractions cruised
bursting busty bruise.

Miles to Go.

Lord I have miles to go,
To complete the tasks assigned by you,
Life's pathways have ups and downs,
There are many hurdles on the way,
I cannot realize my goals,
I cannot fulfill them cheerfully,
One problem leads to another,
And keeps me continually,
Harassed and troubled,
Let me run my course with even joy,
To defeat the wiles of Satan,
And closely walk with thee to heaven....

dark moon prophecy
tears fall from her lashes
twisting and turning

the moon and the sun both
extinguished to protect their identity

cheap rolls unfurled
ferociously fight the terror
of the night

the harassed drops to his knees
what has he done?
the moon turns very pale
barely breathing

three tombs loom
at first light, like
creeping shadows
as the media
crowds the school

I found a sphinx in my backyard
And a manatee turned up dead
I raised a flag, all went to one knee
A hissing package fell on my head!

I was harassed by a baby squirrel
My turkey got doubled up tariff
DNA linked me to a cold case crime
Now I have to talk to the sheriff!

A child prodigy gets to stay
I lost at chess, so now I'm gone
My pregnant wife's hooked on opioids
My life is a current news spawn!...

Lord I have miles to go,
To complete the  tasks,
Assigned by you,
Love's pathways have ups and downs,
There are many hurdles on  the way,
I cannot realize my goals,
I cannot fulfill them cheerfully,
One problem leads to another,
And keeps me continually,
Harassed and troubled,
Let me run my course with  even joy,
And follow your footsteps closely,
To defeat the wiles of Satan,
And walk with thee to heaven....

With a season such as this
A time when farmers stammer
And nomads mumble and stumble
In this season
None smiles with the heart
Gossipers ashamed and harassed
Of their own utterances
And nature’s wrath mounts mouth ajar
As multitudes stagger in stage of their own blindness
Blaming one another
Blaming gods
And hope soars like eagles
Heavens cold on the earths
And no one to embrace the role sole
And heed create a world
Where living things co exist...

Dinner Date or Date for Dinner?
When the harvest moon is full and bright,
And the wolf bane blooms on an autumn night,
If the guy whose kiss used to make you swoon
Starts to lick his lips and howl at the moon,
You'd best decline if he asks you out for a bite.

A Midlands Urban Legend
A village somewhere in the Midlands
Was harassed by a bodiless dead man,
But sans charger or steed,
How could they, indeed,
Be afraid of a lone horseless headman?...
