Short Quash Poems

tension in the air
mistakes previously forgotten
brought forth by another
sorrow fills the mind
indulgence of the flesh
quash dreams of the soul...

It was original craft
Here comes unjust
Making out for cash
Setup mode to catch
Bring the sinner to judge
Include the planner cast
Conspiracies quash!...

There once was a curly haired lad
Whenever he started to feel mad
He’d shout out loud “GOSH”
And then he would quash
With nunchucks what made deb feel sad...

Oh my gosh!
Utter bosh...
Waves swash,
Watery slosh,
Simply awash,
Auto wash...
Oughta quash?
Lost me galosh!
That's not posh.
Put the kibosh-
Don't josh!...

Quite
    Quickly,
    Quirky quotes
    Quell quarrelsome
    Quips.

    Quash 
    Quibbles
    Quietly,
    Quench querulous
    Qualms.

Chasing down chocolate bacon sandwiches;
Accompany yellow and green quash;
Grapefruit flavored pinto beans taco flav' mustaches;
Cauliflower lips succulent nose bash;
Smells abundant of burnt ash sugatash

With age, random body parts start to fall off
I used to be quite surprised but now I just scoff
Probably don't need em
But into depression, I'd descend
'Cept a leg, dancing the Maranga it would surely quash...

People running round like turkeys with their heads off
Turkeys running for their lives, fears unable to quash
Sadly tradition wins out
Season joy's what it's about
Turkeys have families too, at tradition they scoff...

Why can't I see in myself
  what others see in me

So busy comparing reality
  to some idealized version of me

A version of me from so long ago
  no one would recognize it now, so

Perhaps it's time to quash comparisons absurd
  to celebrate who I've become, as I pen each new word...

Quarrelsome Questions

    quickly quirky quips
    quash quandaries quietly
    quells querulous qualms

    repress rhetorical rants
    ribs rabble - rousers

    swiftly satires skill
    silences sophistries spin
    stuns subversive scorn

Filigree eyes so fervent
Agitated incensed thoughts
Silenced…
Lest terror and dilemma 
Sacrifice you to lifeless mettle

Muddled illusory echoes
A vacant faced hollow shroud
Defined…
Rise and slake the flames	
Quash the panicked ire

Reside in ardent moments 
Suppressed of biting angst
Falling…
Catch the yield of filigree eyes
Crystalline tears...

Let we rejoice the
creamy event
tomorrow,
And to say Eid
Mubrak with no
sorrow,

Remember to greet,
tweet and read,
Your inbox full of
bakra Eid,

To shake our hands
with benignity,
To quash the hatreds
of malignity,

This Eid brings the
message of
brotherhood and
humanity,
With divine
blessings and
bestowment of
sodality,

Wish you mirth, wish
you Joys,
Happy Bakra Eid with
highs.

May we be blessed to acknowledge all the wonders in our life
that have, for us, thus far accrued…
and to begin each day with a word of thanks…
and thoughts of gratitude.

Since we’re in the month of October
I have this sensation I can’t quash…
a thankfulness for pumpkins
that beautiful winter squash…

This time of year 
when the color orange has universal appeal….
I love the way even the smallest pumpkin
always makes me feel...

I see rings of fire in my eyes.
A spirit none can quash.
Yet sometimes only I limit this fire by doubts.
I feel like someone is tossing water at my rings of fire.
Sometimes I doubt my existence.
Only for the power of the pen to triumph.
Lo, behold my rings of fire.
A drive no intoxicant can bear.
A fire which rips the soul.
Yet drives the heart.
And Flabbergasts the brain.
My inner fire will stop never.
My fire, my everything....

Slumbering woods bloom
under beetle plowed pulp.
Up above, 
the canopy is bare,
and sheds only white zero’s.

Beetles hum beneath the rot,
detonate inaudible chitinous chimes, 
troglodyte tones
under a dormant mulch.

Everywhere,
ambiguity buds open and close
in a subterranean flurry.

When the ice breaks its quash and quell,
they surface 
round and gleaming
to chase new laid morsels down;
their feeding 
turning earth for the seeding sun....

Fake Lamentation
by ~H~

Quash my hopes and quell my dreams
Wrap my heart in shades of grey
Life has it in for me, it seems
For jaded and broken I'm bound to stay

Sheath your tongue of silvery cold
I cover my ears from your fake lament
Speak no more your words so old
Release your grip on my mind now bent

Quash my hopes and quell my dreams
You leave this place in disarray
For me to patch the holes and seams
And amble on through another day

-End-...

By Joseph Christopher Liguori and Robert James Liguori

Don't talk to me,
Just let me be.

I want to be a dancer,
not a necromancer.

You gave me no choice,
why do I have to hear your voice?

Let my legs, hips and arms move,
to music, not your rambling groove.

In life you tried to quash my dream,
I had no option but to push you in that stream.

Please release me from this trance,
so I can finally dance, dance, dance.

That stunningly beautiful day
(though through smog, the light really was grey)
In the mythic town
Where you live like a clown
In my hand the page finally lay

It was my dream for more than eight years
And down my face streamed muting tears
Vindication at last
But the outside seems vast
Paper's too thin to quash all my fears

Yet on this bright day in may
I ignore the words no one will say
My work's finally done
It is time to have fun
And for my home I will always pray...

I dream an scream to quash thou demon
I suffer doth hurt I cry doth scar eyes on
I see how you bring pain into existence
Quash Quash oh fallen angel and sense
For what once was yours now it never be

Quash Quash Oh fallen angel and flee
Away from earth away from this tree
For how long shall I wait to live to be
An stop wanting to eliminate your see
Quash forever never return to whenever

Quash Quash an i'll be here ; and you
Will be no more
