Short Lambasted Poems

Lambasted Whitehouse

Had seen a lighthouse 
Whose sight was beyond compare;
Then wished I was there

chiggers get under my skin
biting me harder than I have ever been bitten
I feel an orange glow chastising my acceptance
but what can I do? They own the tall night grass
bullfrog bellows at me in a belligerent way
I feel lambasted and irritated
cat fishing has never been so mean...

He thought to himself
If I could go back, I’d tell
No one, not even the police, that I’d
Driven by and shot him with ease, 
Silence, would be my clutch, so 
I wouldn’t be judged 
Guilty, nor lambasted like that, by
Hypocrites in mass, for killing a  
Toddler thug, with candy bar drugs...

Frankly, you blew it, lost your cool;
you let loose and lambasted him.
Seventy-eight years, you ole fool,
frankly, you blew it, lost your cool.
You aren't ashamed? instead you drool.
Going to the pool for a swim?
Frankly, you blew it, lost your cool;
you let loose and lambasted him.

The esoteric couple had a night on the town.
And, wow, they were so totally wasted.

Neither aspirin nor Alka-Seltzer, will ever 
Repair the health, that both lambasted.

Nor would any marijuana do the trick!
Those fools even tried potent Thai-Sticks?


                Live long and prosper, 
                             P.Romios 
                              8/6/2022...

Riding a rooster all the way to Easter town
Makes the work seem easy said a strange clown.
Who is that girl? Why is she the one getting to ride?
His mother lambasted him, taking him back inside.

You don’t make fun of people; your jealousy is showing.
The rooster was strutting, doing a teensy bit of crowing.
Girl on his back was loving her seat so high in the sky.
We never figured out though who chose her and why....

In that spark, at summit
When sky is just on the way and is not the limit
Like lime being squeezed out of last drop of juice
As throne and king, in sweet affiliation, never in truce
High up taunting the call of gravity
Columbarium in tornado, reunion with plummeting abyss a true test of vitality
Motivation a lambasted frugality, an eternal ignite for those who drown
Is in action when what goes up starts to come down...

Shel was a pecksniffian, hypocritical goody-do.
Acted like most people were gum on her size ten shoe.
Her daughter Sue brought home a nice guy named Lonnie Lou
With pharisaical precision Shel lambasted him red and blue

A year later Sue ran off with Lonnie Lou to Kalamazoo
Shel has never met her granddaughters, Laurie Lynn or Linda Lou
She is not likely to ever meet them either, confided Sue
What she did to me, I will never let her do to my two....
