Short Queasiness Poems

We just cannot mind our own business.
We know better than others.....
It gives me a bad case of poetical queasiness!

As one lost in a rough sea,
I will assuredly save thee!
I have a bad case of Deus Ex Machina.

It was like a pouring out
The thing my soul did that day.

And you –
I knew you felt its soaking
Like torrents
Of neverending retribution.

And you –
I knew you felt its heaviness
Like weights
Of unfulfilled absolution.

And yet you took it all.
Without qualms or queasiness.
You took it with a strong and determined nod.

Thank you for that....

positivity in voice,
mannerism, mollycoddling
may bring tidings
up from down-in-the-mouth
to a weak grin
     if that doesn’t work
perhaps, a little gin,
olive plops,
fizz fizz,
a little sun, a little breeze
wings flapping…
     just
omitting, oblivious,
staring straight ahead
     tethered
to fair-weathered feathers,
free-and-queasiness of tears

I’m feeling a little bit queasy.
I’m sure it was something I ate.
So I think it be best
If my stomach can rest;
Any intake will likely tempt fate.

My mom was a fervent believer,
When I felt this way, that some hot tea
With grape jelly on toast
Would be better than most
Other foods to bring health back to me.

It worked back when I was a child
But at present it doesn’t appeal.
Yet some chips and a beer
Somehow seem to appear
Like the best anti-queasiness meal....

I just puked another poem today
There was a queasiness so my brain felt the need 
To up chuck all of its contents
All over you fine peoples feet

It was a colorful array of symbolism
That I hurled across the room
It must have been something I'd seen or read
That made me vomit this poem out for you

Don't worry I'll personally clean up the mess
Before anymore of this I let loose
But this close to a sick poet you should have guessed
That eventually my works would splatter on you...
