Always smile, giggling
Quiet, you wish
Unusual ranting
Are you insane
Rain falls down
I dance in it
Until the end

A Yogi was ranting in Parma
How Trump is interpreting Dharma
For goodness' sake
Give Trump a break
Nobody on earth wants Trump's karma!...

Trump comes unhinged
every twenty-four hours,
ranting and raving.

"I am the victim,"
he says, but can't you see he's
getting crazier?...

I can hear
the ranting fish
talking
far below

Feelings are
just feelings
says the fish

And nothing
Is more 
accommodating
than water...

She spins in silly circles,
Ranting in ridiculous rhymes.
Giggling, giddy, and girly,
Forgeting fabled fears.
Twinkling tears tug heartstrings
Of her lover dear....

Everything around me
Turns into poetry--
But badly written.
My brain foams
Like it was bitten
By a rabid dog
Or like an angry mob
That doesn’t know what it’s ranting about....

Concrete cracks
Bridges snap
The sea descends
            Ranting and raving
On all our heads
 
She throws cars like pebbles
Smashes lives
Leaves mud and broken families...

Zoomers and weavers 
Tailgaiters and speeders
Scream and yell, you can all go to he** ....
Until they get past you,
Then they start their ranting and snarling 
All over again!...

Lamb
delightful, joyful
loving, giving, caring
Master, Savior, demon, human
ranting, raving, thronging 
sedition, affliction

In Honor of Dane Ann
And contest

March roars in like a lion seeking

Attention with its hard cold breezes

Ranting and raving like some lunatic

Carefully the sun calms the lion transforming

Him into the sacrificial lamb...

Yearning to cause tragedY
Monster fueled by deliriuM
Arise from paranoiA
Never to be seen agaiN...

Senator Kristen Sinema negotiates only in private
Which drives her colleagues and reporters crazy-irate

   I think if America had 49 more Senators like her
   From all their ranting and raving the rest would demur...

She had been stalked
Dark thoughts draped in silence
Ranting
Gnawing
Suckling
At the breast of doubt
Whimpering
In the shadowed suffering
Of idled indecision
Held hostage
By the blank page

Roaring round roads raucously  
Orally overtly offending operators
Acrid antagonistic adjectives aired
Defiantly daring distracted drivers

Ranting raving railing
Aggravate annoy atrocious
Gregarious gone Goebbels
Exacerbate engage enrage...

A child so alone
Loud ranting
The thunder rumbles.

Chaos

The cycle continues.

The storms that rage through the young girl's ears
Becomes the rage that storms through her heart.

A child of her own
Quiet prayers
He calms the storm.

Peace

The cycle broken....

Melancholy chimes,
a dark silhouette;
Doleful burlesque doll,
soft splatter of sound 
pulls tears from her eyes;

Fall into pain 
dance on sadness;
Risque ranting
stains that lace bra;

Revealing 
everything
naked twirl;

Pouting
is a  

tease....

pressure, temptation, healing, scars.
So much agitation, so much nerves. 
Everyone is so pissy, makes me wanna cut.
No incoming money, none to pay my stuff.
I wanna go back, to the place where im at peace,
no ranting raving bullshit, to tear piece from piece....

Public opinions that
Undermine the ground on which we walk
Bedeviled only be enticing jeers
Emotions that are vexing are laid-out with a cuss
Ranting &  raving "The world is out to get us!"
Taking in sustenance over parental spiels
You've not forgotten how it feels?...

Three innocent children by cancer stricken
touch a  Samaritan who then offers to help.
But a dark-hearted joker comes charging in, 
ranting the gesture is a result of liberal guilt.
Oh boy, what has this crazy world turned into?
even good intentions are second-guessed!...

Morose, mellow, and mysterious, my mind has made
An alliteration accented around random assets
Of ranting, riveting raves renewed
To try and tackle tiring thoughts 
Whilst wanting with wonder to withhold worn-out wittiness
Which can kind of, if continued, come out quite corny...

Ravishing Rosie Redbud raced red roadsters rapidly down the roadside.
Racing recklessly, Rosie Redbud rammed Roger Reynold's red ranger, 
resulting in ruined wrecks and a raving, ranting Roger.








Ravishing Rosie wreaked havoc with tongues.
For Gwen's Tongue Twister contest...

Chants ranting
rants chanting
narcissistic voices
deliciously pounding

Vicarious words
devilishly dancing
choruses spewing
copious chords

Muses climax
narcotic pleasure
poets revel
feeling hypnotic drums

Poetic coitus
lend me your ear
cry havoc
