Politics

POLITICS

Politicians
base tacticians
no shame accrues for them.
They vote for war
then tax us more
Their lies spew forth like phlegm.

Flip-Top Accsess

The top flips easily back
flip-top access to a phlegm-filled hack
blackened teeth and rancid breath
the smoker’s path to a breathless death.

A Man Named Clem

There once was a man named Clem
Who had copious amounts of phlegm
To his consternation
This sticky situation
Happened again and again and again.

Premium Member Grumpy Numpty

Listen to poem:
A grumpy numpty spat on his phone,
Deleting wanton feeds alone,
All the retweets, and all the phlegm there,
But the bullied feeling was still there.

My Stuffed Animal

My animal was hinting again,
staring at me in the den,
taking my meds,
he begged and pled,
could he be stuffed with a lot of phlegm?

Little Bites

Little bites
     make clothes tight!!

A little cough
    Brings great phlegm
       which falls great Men!


Inspired by Benjamin Franklin's poem
Little strokes
Fell Great oaks.

Premium Member Faith and Drains

Again, I've filled your faith 
with black powdered phlegm
when they should be 
brimming with precious gems.
In refrain, you cough clouds of blue rain
red roses circling clogged drains.

Premium Member We'Ve Been Trumped

Each day is a frustrating adventure in futility Tolerating such weird behavior is incomprehensible The man at the helm Is spitting out phlegm Normal just ain't in his realm of possibility

Premium Member Lies Within

Listen to poem:
what lies within
that chin
beneath quivering lips
that belies the lie
within the tongue
tied by bounds
of clenched teeth
holding within
the lies squirming
in a swarm of spit
lying to be cast in
a phlegm amen

Premium Member Ahem This Phlegm

Ahem this phlegm
In snotty body
Needs and pleads
A hotty-toddy.

Think a drink
Or pill will
Fight my plight
Kill this ill?

I might ply
With some rum
Debauch with scotch
Numb the glum.

Until that swill
Outs this bout
My poor sore
Snout will spout.

Premium Member Holier Than Thou-Humor

There was an old woman fron Shem.
Uponst hearing a bad word, sighed,  "Amen"
One day, sadly, choked on her phlegm.
Her cost of holiness was death.
Alas~ in heaven now with no breath!

Premium Member The Breach

The breach of the men and the boys. The ladies despair of such joys. What flies off their tongue. The phlegm, it is flung. Both spit with an “ach” sort of noise. 3/1/2022 A New Bawdy or Humorous Limerick Poetry Contest Tania Kitchin HMS 88558

Premium Member Habits

Habits are hard to break
Makes no difference good or bad,
Entrenched, they problems make
When problems, make us sad.

Habits steal our freedom
Got to find time to indulge them,
Make us believe we need ‘em
Even when hacking up phlegm!

Premium Member Toothless

she drew out spittle and split hair on her tongue in suspense

an audience pitched their bets as snot and mucus went dense

as she rattled nails tightened her fangs closed in on her foes

she only licked her wounds with phlegm to soften the blows

Premium Member What Is Your Philosophy of Phlegm

What is your philosophy of phlegm?
His ideas were a tiny bit dim
They fell from him like leaves off a stem
He stated them with vigorous vim

His sage answers lingered on the brim
One of them was a terrific little gem
None were answered on a whim
However, they were serious only to him

Premium Member Spew

Riding along a tongue full of bees
biding my time until I can free them.
Sliding inside they're stinging my skin,
inciting all of this pent up phlegm. 

You took too lightly my hard restraint
blew a smoky swarm into my face. 
Spew, I have the wildfire to rise up.
Debut, watch me dominate this space.

The Ten Days of Covid


On the tenth day of Christmas, 
my true love gave to me;
one dose of Covid, 
breathless and restless, 
tire and fatigue, 
loose bowels and sickness, 
sore throat and acne, 
phlegm, cough and sneezes, 
acute loss of smell, 
aches and pains, 
cycling high fever, 
and a lung full of pure misery.

Mushy Thoughts Merges - Day 21

saucy smoke smirks
gulping gaunt lurch
puking punctured bitumen
blurs bleeding bountifully
filling cloud's peeper
with whooshing phlegm

taunted track clothes
fiery ferments: glows
skate speed blows

voluptuous velocity's vibe
into dances drives
sassy soles thrive

mushy thoughts merges
speed, emotions surge.

Perfectionist Is a Neurotic

showering in the virgin rain
apparent angles of discrimination
perfectionist is a neurotic
she was dancing shamanically
wild rejoicing in the
birth of a wild 
mushroom
purulent phlegm is a tonic too
supernumerary bands of light
no one is perfect
nothing is perfect
it is disease
she was sleeping now
at the shore of peace

Premium Member No Laughing Matter

When the joke's begun, it made you tense

They like poking fun, at your expense

Then laugh till they're blue, and choke on phlegm

When they laugh at you, the joke's on them


So, laugh when they laugh, it's up to you 

You can gaff the gaff, they put you through 

Just brush off their snide, and cold reply

When hushed deep inside, you wanna cry

Premium Member For My Child

For My Child
Breathe, I can’t breathe
Air is like fog
I need a breath to survive
Now another one
And another
It seems to go
On, seconds seems to be
A coughing 
Phlegm 
All that I have done
Painful entities
That I have created
Moments
Breathing needs to become
A solid conscious
Deliverance
Breathe, again
So that I may be
Her life, again

Premium Member Doctor Are You Crazy

Coughing up phlegm
from end to end
struggling to breathe
since December

Where do I begin?
Please go to the doctor I urge him.
But he is a man
All macho and stuff

Break down and go?
What would a doctor know?
I am a male you see
Strong as a tree

Cough cough cough
Hack hack hack
I will continue coughing my phlegm
You do not realize, it is my prerogative, I am a him.

White Clouds Rose Shining

White clouds rose shining coughs in morning lamps phlegm squeezes thoughts weary 
coffee mugs stain teeth flaking bones throb sermons pounding on ghosts open doors 
hallways fill whispered names kiss lips lost letters smear ink rain beats windows thunder 
awoke after midnight lightning struck sleep drifting in and out of eyes sunken beds groan 
and moan dreams toss and turn till dawn

Kaleidoscopic Chaos Clogged

sassy spell snapped
trailing taunted trance
callous clouds cruised
bounty blitzkrieg bruised
nocturnal nymph nudged
pluming lanky lust

amputated atmosphere bled
alakazam cremating crest
fostering phlegm fetched

felon flesh flipped
dark dribbles clipped
tampered trees gripped

leering logs lobbed
kaleidoscopic chaos clogged.

Until It Is Unexpected

mr. macy
picture of health
now sounds like mr. troutman

thinking about mouth to stoma
thinking about the whiskers growing
thinking about the phlegm now having a new exit

ms. pennymarker
picture of health
now sounds like the small wonder girl

thinking about mouth to stoma
thinking about the new rudiments of swallowing food
thinking about the regrets now suddenly at the surface
