Short Inconsistent Poems

Imposing eye-catching
Ice glacier rough diamonds
Inconsistent in shape
Intimidates in size
Immense and iconic
Ill-fated by melting
Impaler, ship sinker.

Swans call this forest their home,
I come here often feeling alone...
their coo is somewhat inconsistent:
it's a language I can't understand!
Is happiness found in a small pond?...

My reality is a product of my perception
My perception is a product of my learning
So, if I want to change my perception,
I will have to unlearn the inconsistent
to learn the consistent...

he is like the weather, inconsistent and unpredictable.
and we're like meteorologists,
always trying to predict when the rain will come and go.
but the truth is we don't know.
sometimes there's not a cloud in the sky yet the rain still falls....

backhanded compliments 
became the standard practice 
within our maladaptive version of normalcy 
which fell dependent upon 
a series of inconsistent 
swings in mood experienced   
within a single conversation 
which over time became the way 
of our world...

Watch those who change around you, for their climate is unsettled 
The cool breeze of yesterday becomes the humidity of today
Unstabled weather, impossible to predict 
Seasons who disregard their alias 
Man is merely a leaf,
Woman, a rare fruit
Inconsistent, yet consistent...

I’m hesitantly ecstatic,
And devoutly Republicratic,
A conservative eclectic,
And a pragmatic romantic.

I scoff at reality,
I’m a collection of coined morality,
I’m a gracious curmudgeon,
And everyone’s conundrum,
Does this make me gregariously timid?
Or just consistently inconstant?...

What peculiar behavior I see.
That’s what is known as an idiosyncrasy.
It is inconsistent with acceptances in society.
Persons who have foibles in life
have actions that can cut like a knife.
Someone with an eccentricity requiring a nudge,
is in no position to decide or judge.

"I don't deserve this life that I'm living for I have been unfaithful, inconsistent and unjust...
I don't have the right to live this life that I'm living, for I've hurt the people that cared for me the most...
I don't know why I have this life that I'm living, but I know that it's a Blessing from You...'...

Inconsistant and Persistant

Many companies appear to be inconsistent;
Higher ups do have great wages persistent;
Have thrills,
Paying bills;
Equally spread wages around  are resistant.

Jim Horn

Listening to MSNBC and how employees 
of certain companies are on food stamps.

You have assonance and should have reasonance....

Figments of one's imagination  transformations and inconsistent dreams postponed images of one's  mind's eye.
Creativeness and non realities  of one's
imagination a fairy tale, a made up story?
Passions and inquisitiveness into existence 
being bearing  and imaging it into actuality and
materalization figments of one's imagination...

A fictitious depiction 
 And a raunchy display
Introducing much suspicion 
Of what had really taken place

Excuses came in, sloppy
Inconsistent to say the least
The whole ordeal felt choppy
With a coat of thick deceit 

A shotty demonstration
To unfold before my eyes
And when it reached the end
Parted curtains revealed the lies...

slight dreams of slender fingers running over shoulders heightened senses sensual sensations at sunset as caress down, silent murmur inconsistent with constant ecstatic touch, shudder at thought sought held yet day's occasion needs tending. Until next moment next to she sweet memory take shape in mind hint sigh, swerve as drive...:)

I'm a big fat thieving copycat
A liar and a cheat
The most inconsistent person, 
you'll probably ever meet.
Shouldn't try to love me
I'll cut and slice you deep
Heart's in the right place
But i'll probably make you weep
I'm fun for the odd night
Sometimes could be even a week
But if i'm honest with you
Deep or meaningful really aint what i seek...

The Better Man
by Michael R. Burch 
  
Dear Ed: I don’t understand why
you will publish this other guy—
when I’m brilliant, devoted,
one hell of a poet!
Yet you publish Anonymous. Fie!
 
Fie! A pox on your head if you favor
this poet who’s dubious, unsavor
y, inconsistent in texts,
no address (I checked!):
since he’s plagiarized Unknown, I’ll wager!...

deride derision  divide division devise a vision
play with words like rythym  tick something squared
is power of two and cubed's the power of three 
not four that's more
are inconsistent seas unfound or foundered 
I think there four iambic meters cause caucasion
indecision in a celtic melded welded mind I find
a loss of words incomprehensic in reprehensic
pensitivity...

In my innocent sleep. 

That leaves me unresolved. 

Did I lose some sort of promise?

Some sort of sparkling and bubbling. 

Or was it all me babbling hopelessly. 

Which memories did I say goodbye to?

While I am no longer inconsolable. 

I am having inconsistent memories. 

Moments that become clear at the strangest times. 

During a kind and silent moment....

It is hard and bleak
now, below his tired feet
with the grey above him,

albescent with time
clouds bubble above him there
like an old man’s  beard,

though you, his sweet one
are the soft green in between,
bring back salad  days,

when you address him
you greet him with such relish
to flavour his life

and so he holds on -
ever in mind  as at hand,
leaning on the wind....

I see the perfect girl, yet I still refuse to accept the invitation
The means to acquire her beauty would not reveal themselves
the descending power did not fall down upon me
Lack of time, prior attachments, and incompetence had left me a sitting duck
now I sit... left with impertinent, inconsistent, wandering thoughts
without the greatness of her impression
or a quick return promising their reduction...

I bite my nails to keep
order, to keep them in line
I chew my fingers-
feast on the small
shreds of flesh to keep
them groomed-we don’t want
any outliers or any heads
poking out of the crowd-
it doesn’t look good.
That’s how they should be-
bloody disfigured and
inconsistent nails with
the bacteria from the dirt
and germs
going into my mouth.
I create 
scabs 
and 
hangnails 
and 
shreds....

When all is said and done
the dust begins to settle
and all the pieces standing
are forced back into mellow

The melancholic return
in oblivious absense
monotony abounds
and still nothing happens

A fercent felt desire
a yearning for some depth
Unsheathing of mine eyes
reveals there's nothing left

Inconsistent surging swells
of pent up cooperation
man made soul a super nova
an imploding decimation...

I’m blown away by my ability to feel
It rattles my core.  It’s raw and real
But then there are days, without even trying
I’m numb on the inside.  My empathy, dying
Often times, I’m clever, unparalleled wit
Then others, I’m blank, I simply forget
Unwillingly, it seems, I omit basic skills
Left sweating and fretting and spinning my wheels
I’m up or down.  Either proud or ashamed
One day to the next, I’m never the same...

Times when u were young ,
A thought strikes me
Trees shade in scorching sun
Mid aged acceptance 

Strong roots for little grass
Heads first prior 
Maker's unconditional affection 
Follow the steps

Untroubled upturn for keeping 
Untroubled upturn for nourishing 
Wasn't a function for prospect,
But desire for bliss

We dont long for inconsistent affection 
Nor tenderness of our veins 
But unexpected shields of planted trees...

A mood what is it?
a thing that overtakes you
you can't control it
if you only had a clue

This mood seems so inconsistent
it can happen at any time
there's no apparent reason
it doesn't fit any rhyme

Your personality completely changes
you're not the same person
others struggle to understand
your mind is on a run

In your head emotions mix
throwing you completely off key
but tomorrow peace may return
so you're back normal and free

What a disappointment, and not very nice,
when a hockey game is cancelled for bad ice.
For some reason, the refrigeration unit goes on the blink.
Because of it, there is rough and inconsistent ice on the rink.
There will be no slap shots, checking, and scoring of a goal.
It’s just like getting a Christmas stocking full of coal.
There will be no lights and sirens, and not even one fight.
The teams will have to give it a go on another night.
