British, French Haiti, why the latter quelled?...

My tummy rebelled today
  Saying, 'No more dessert; no way'

    My eyes bugged out
    My tongue salivated

  Hours of frustration awaited ......

She wore velvet and satin
Pampered as the poor rebelled
She lost her head, bleeding red

Did Determine the Ticket

We did determine what was the ticket;
What we really should  do is to picket,
Up were  tensed;
Rebelled against,
So you cannot go to the Trump picnic.

There was once a Queen 
Who sat on her throne
Behind closed doors 
Giving orders, abusing and casting spells
The staff rebelled and chucked her in hell
Where she remains still spitting poison.

Apparently Provocative

Trump apparently is provocative
Does only take and never any give
Do things may be compelled
Like against them has rebelled
Who like that would want to live.

Mirage suggested on the run
"Hydrate or be well-done, my son"
The ice cream rebelled,
The sunflowers yelled—
And the night couldn't outshine the sun!...

A merman had one stubborn daughter

who rebelled against what her dad taught her.

When she swam to dry land,

she could then understand

she was just like a fish - out of water!

They rebelled against the
With no fear of fall
They stood tall
Heart open wide
The mighty tide
Angry, in its stride
Broke them into million pieces
Still could not shatter their pride
The million hearts glittered 
Erased all the gloom
Light up the whole world bright
They stood tall
They rebelled against the tide...

For a cryptic misdemeanor? 
None of their reasoning was clear;
They only wanted her controlled 
with the turn of a single key;

Threw her inside and locked the door 
hoping that she would disappear;
Wild was impossible to mold
her heart would not bend easily;

That flash in her eyes was so bold 
as she rebelled amicably....

You dangerous viper go away
and leave me on my own.
You are a lion and a thief,
trying to steal God's throne.

You shook your fist in anger.
You rebelled against your King.
Someday, Satan, you will pay
for causing me this suffering.

God is angry, Rightfully so.
His creations have turned away.
But his children will rejoice
on the day that Satan pays....

I'd travel the world
  Trip the light fantastic
Spend quality time with my family
  My schedule, so elastic

Brush up on my reading
  Start a garden, plant seedlings
Exercise daily, religiously
  Attend prayer services regularly

Well, retirement's come and I must say
  Things haven't exactly broken my way
My body's rebelled, and I've had to scrap
  ~ Everything save my afternoon nap...

As he gazed out the window, his spirits fell
  Sleet from the sky turned the sidewalks to hell
'I must shovel.'... At the very thought he rebelled
  Boots, gloves, scarf -- his anger swelled

At the door his daughter called him
  Her voice excited and sweet
'Daddy, the snow is so gorgeous
  Isn't it neat?!'

The man paused a few moments in the doorway
  'It sure is, honey,' Daddy heard his voice say...

When 1953 began
Iran’s oil annexation plan
Meant seizing our stuff
But the CIA’s tough
And installed the Shah as he-man
 
Since Iran’s parliament was dead
And Muslims brutally bled
The people rebelled
But what came next spelled
By an ayatollah they’d be led 
 
When exiled the Shah became sick
The U.S. was his treatment pick
The prick of this deal
Our embassy did feel
Where the hostage taking was quick...

I’ll scrape this mud off of my heels -
That’s caked from years of trudging.
And soak these wounds in orange peels -
To persuade scabs into budging.

This bar of soap, my sword of choice -
Will slay bruises that have haunted.
Replacing aches with citrus’ voice -
Who soothingly tunes the daunted.

This plunge of water, warm and welled -
Will calm my anxious weather.
And put to rest thoughts that rebelled -
As I bathe in crystal summer....
