Short Less And Less Poems

less and less
dissolves into
nothingness
are the voids of
silence places...

The more I plunge
Into the sea of causation
Less and less needed
Is the vessel of hope...

My car
Is an expense
(Gas, repairs, insurance)
I use it less and less and stay
At home...

Whenever we are learning
we have to pass the test
we know we are gaining
when we fail less and less....

Needed in a world-
more than less and less than more,
always the same
too much is bad as too little
just the right amount to go on...

reduction, deduction
less and less intake
more and more output
weight watchers
reach their goal
more or less

I feel that I need to confess
My house is really a mess.
Since I joined this new group
Called Poetry Soup
My time has been less and less....

clearing rainforests
remorseless profiteering
Mother Earth's face scared
resources raped and pillaged 
smoke reaches the distant stars...

If more is less
  then less is more
Is it too skimpy
  Are models whores

Fashion's dress
  is less and less
What's more ~ 
  Skin's a bore...

Liquid red cloaks the Bible.
Each page soaks up less and less.
But it drips beautifully
from the cross to the loose leaf.

If you find yourself flummoxed with flu
There’s really not much you can do.
	Sip some soup or drink tea
	And eventually
You’ll feel less and less apt to ach-oo!...

success-
the enamel
disguising a mess
where the meaning
becomes less and less
forsaking confusion
for a state of illusion
with a gesture-
of subtle finesse...

So, we have a New Year
A new decade, new fear
But twenty twenty vision
Has never been less clear
Less known, less full of cheer.
Twenty twenty vision
Is not what it was, I fear....

You've created this mess
It's making me miss you less and less
The lies you've said 
I know she's in your head
You ain't gotta lie
You ain't gotta deny
It's okay, I know.
You can go....

Unconventionally more,
more or less.
More isn’t much more,
nor is less anymore less.
Time and faith, 
maintaining keen perspective.
Inconspicuously but fundamentally,
it is... undeniably more....

At this time of year,
I have a spring in my step;
the ladies do dress
in less and less coverings...
bare skin - worth the Winter's wait!

As my mind slips away
A little more each day

Regressing into a world of juvenility
With less and less social civility

Physically capable but losing mental mobility
I believe this road is called futility

Blood flows down the drain
as i slowly cut my vein
deeper and deeper the razor goes
less and less oxygen flows
Blood drips on the paper
to let suicide be shown
slit my wrist and off i go
emotionless
letting no pain show...

Frozen in time
A Lonesome mime
Don't believe that I'm Fine
broken from within
what is this pain Sin?
Distant from the crowd
shy to speak out loud
bound to this illness
becoming less and less
myself forever lost....

Fall free from fear.
Let go,arms spread.
Release tention of words not said.
Fall free from stress.
Pressure in neck becomes less and less.
Fall free from hate.
Let love feel great.
Surrender and fall takes care of it all....

Skin and bones, some say she's too thin
Kind of looks like a frail stick
Each day she runs, fast paced
Lost look in her eyes
Eats less and less
Torn and sad
One word
Numb

With less and less affection
It can only move in one direction

Every time she cries
A little more trust dies

Outwardly not much shows
But inside she already knows

Ignorance isn’t bliss
When sealing lies with a kiss

The malls are dying, I've noticed lately
Less and less traffic, they seem to be suffering greatly
Shopping on-line is taking over
Stuff arrives next day at your door
Once was a meeting place at the food court daily...

New Jersey is the type of place
Where you pay more and more
As you get older
While simultaneous the value
Of experiences grow less and less
Until one day
You're in a nursing home IV strapped
Sipping apple juice and leaking in a bed pan...

when your life's like a kaleidoscope 
a multi coloured mess
when everything's haphazard
and you're seeing less and less
a periscope can help you find
what's going on above
but a telescope is useless
when you're looking for true love...
