not supporting their kids, but
funds are being misused.

Life of Absurd Politician

could be too confused
absurd and always abused
mishandled and misused

Jim Horn

Does that sound fair?...

Why is Isis such an issue 
Those affected by the crisis deserve a tissue
When a drone flies fast 
the bombs have a huge blast 
The cause is misused...

Trump On A Scooter

While Trump rode on a scooter,
He had come across a computer;
Quite confused,
And misused;
A detective looking for a looter.

spat on, scrunched, trampled
unimaginably torn
used, misused, abused
we care not; for there is want
and it remains valuable.

Constructive criticism,
A term oft misused.

In enhancing another's,
Daily performance.

Be politically correct,
and leave less abused.

Positive feedback,
Encourages conformance....

All of My Patience

All of My Patience politicians do try;
Each hole of water will let run dry;
We are abused;
Mishandled, misused;
Will be waiting for their next alibi.

Eruption and Consumption of Corruption

With much energy there was an eruption,
And once existed had been consumption;
Confused;
Misused;
Committed crime along with corruption.

Rest in peace...

The mosquito died, 
because he was too fat. 
He was slow and then..., 
not.

Do not think...
that means abundance is bad.
It is simply misused, and
even misunderstood....

Rights That Are Declarant

Trump did decide all his rights are declarant;
Clearly can be seen and became transparent;
Term confused,
Then misused;
And actually believes that this was inherent.

You're fat
Yelled at

Abused
Misused

Sad sighs
Soft cries

Left home
To roam

The streets
Not sweet

Too quick
Turned tricks

Too soon
Was ruined

On dope
No hope

In jail
No bail

Unsung
Died young...

such a woman loved
before hater of men's sleeps
out of passionate

no longer interested in men
abused, misused abandon
now she's just happy

out of passion now
being a single woman
now she is happy

True love hurts
It always must hurt
Painful to love someone
Painful to leave him

People marry
Love is letting go
Have to give up everything
To love each other

Mother who gives life 
To a child suffers much
Word love is misunderstood
Misused so much

Here lies Man-a species of certain wit

who with great success did the atom split

But that knowledge he misused

For he was always confused

Destroyed himself for he did never quit!

Supposed To Be Amused

With your joke  were supposed to be amused;
Instead what happened we became confused;
What about;
Had doubt;
It must have been mishandled  and misused.

And amen should have been added at end of 
sermon so we knew it was over.

Where were you
When i started to grow
Where were you
When my puberty started to show

Where were you
When my mind was confused
Where were you
When i was being misused

Where were you 
To teach me what i should know
Where were you
When i needed strength to grow

Mother 
Where were you...

I've always hated 
The word whore.
It crawls like a worm,
Itching my skin.
Nobody should be called that.
Not the polygamous.
Not the monogamous,
For having premarital sex.
Not the ones who get paid for it.
Not the way it's misused
By those who think they're better,
Which none of us is....

Breathe life into them.
do what you must do,
just don’t take them for granted.

Unclothe several words at a time,
jealousy is for unfaithful poets.

If you envision
deeper than any dictionary can,
then you are honoring them.

How many times
have you misused a word
knowing you were cheating?


Don’t cheat....

A chamber held promise
at the beginning
Bribes and collusion
arguments, shrewd lawyers
added up to injustice.

A place misused
witnessed prejudice and lies.
a jury in a hurry
a judge with bias
justice undone.

This space shows neglect.
Is it ever anything but
a holding place between
a rock and a hard place?...

The Life Quixotic is still Chaotic, 
Still despotic while Tyrants rule. 
Joy, it seems, a thing of dreams
When I wander like a Fool. 
Eternally internally profoundly confused- 
Searching for Time far better spent 
In a Mind I find unfit- MISUSED! 
A wish to be Omnipotent...

thoughts i never thought through,
words misused
where ever i may have slept,
nothing is wasted in pursuit of a muse.
when every coffee house becomes your study
& the sidewalk is as good a place 
as any
to write your masterpiece,
you begin to understand.
whatever paths i've crossed
or shores i've walked;
nothing is wasted in pursuit of the Muse....

dear dope 
you come at me willfully
dripping deliciously from the
lips of (a) god (somewhere)
dear dope 
ripping at tangles in my hair
you are a telescope of
persuasion (manifest
destiny) tokens that can be
tasted (but not touched)
dear dope
double dutch dialect 
murmuring 
the misused jumprope
sudden swift (sigh)
unties & slides oh
dear dope...
