Bullies

Children laugh,
scoffing at heartaches of
lonely souls sobbing
in corners of the playground;
but the bully is really a coward.


Jersey Rocks

JERSEY ROCKS

Jersey rocks
Blue blazes
Docker jocks
Tackle and blocks
Hooks grapple
Around the clock

Scoffing bodies ripple easy
Power
Hardhats safeguard
Secret hearts

Foreign toughs
      Eye
Liberty's muscles

Premium Member Scoffing Derision

When the wars of all nations fall quiet upon shells and shallow graves

A mockingbird rises from ashes and spreads its wings into nuclear skies

No muezzin left to spread angelic messages but a nest in calm turrets

Illuminati and White Hats in Clerihew !


Illuminati now making loud stinky farties 

so angry becoming diddle dandy scoffing smarties

White Hats feeding fat black garden cats, maybe rats

getting ready for a collapse, no space for relapse !

To God Be the Glory

This candle burns slowly —and with the severity of courage
We pick our way with utter caution down the bombarded stairway
One thing is certain: we must flee from this scoffing pillage.
Aided by fluttering tallow, our vision is haunted by the airway.

Premium Member feelings scoff at the word choice

every day is a choice
attitude is a choice
your voice, your mouth, your actions are choices

feelings laugh at this craziness
overtaking us whenever and wherever they want
infiltrating our thoughts and hearts at their whim
scoffing at the word “choice”

Scoffing At Sentimentality

Love should have its place among
those virtues that humans value,
but perfidious dudes scoff at
sentimentality!

What's the irony in this....
is it me that idiot
who shows his full devotion
by being faithful?

Tonight

tonight
the dark
comes with
skepticism, doubt, distrust.......

tonight
the pain
touches
incredulity and scoffing

tonight
the loneliness
comes for
an inclination to believe that we are motivated purely by self-interest

Premium Member Mountains in the Sky

Clouded and shrouded in mist

Hear the Misty Mountains moan

From their peaks they spend their time

Scoffing at hills fully grown

Rumbling and grumbling all day

As they watch the clouds go by

Their arrogance knows no end

Till they're humbled by the sky

Winter Crest

The flying winter-end moves ambivalently 
Scoffing with whitened celebration 
And thrashing through adoration
While nippy Jack Frost chuckles underhandedly 

Into the evening joyful delight 
The spring time moon, sings in speckle red 
Life moves triumphantly in joyful wed
And stillness beats the night

I Don'T Want You To Go

We danced.
On that cold night
with everyone watching.
We didn't care.
Didn't pay attention to their scoffing.
We kissed.
Lips intertwined in warmth.
Dancing there in your arms,
I felt all my pain go away.
I just want this night to stay.
A never-ending love
that has captivated my soul.
I just don't want you to ever go.

Premium Member Devilish

He said, "Hello". I Said, "Who are you?"
He said, "I am the Devil".
I said, "C'mon man. You're not on the level".
He said, "Yes, I am".
"I can't talk to you. My morals forbid".
The Devil said, "You just did."
"No I didn't", I said.
"Yes, you did".
I shut my mouth and stopped scoffing.
As he vanished, I heard him laughing.

Sick

Sick and twisted people can be through in this life 
laughing and scoffing behind your back as you turn your head 
Even if you don't cry there yelling and taunting brake your
Spirit like a sharp blade.

Sick i am i of being laughed at by others who
no not what true pain is.

This is true pain, Words are true pain.
Sick are they, sick is this world.

Ignorance

a dangerous makeup
painful in its entirety
with no good compensation:
An Endanger of Life!

a scoffing-belief
extra cost for survival
its value nothing can buy:
A Worthless Risk!

a sinful poison
thereby a fool is known
knowledge alone its antidote:
An Eye-opener born by pain!

ignorance
cost me much
and much cost me more
behold very much I now know.

Premium Member Dragged

You don’t like my structure;
Sit and call me sell out,
as you reap each reward;
Scoffing at discipline,
get up and try coward;

You don’t like my structure,
schedules drive you mad;
Complain yet do nothing;
Sleep whenever you want 
with a hand out yawning;

You don’t like my structure 
eating what I worked for;
Stop hanging on me then! 
I’m done with your comments;
I won’t be dragged again.

Finding Love In Grinding Times

1)  When tongues are wagging,
     Eyes are sagging,
     Times are dragging,
     And life is nagging...

Chorus:
Look above,
I say, look above,
Look to God,
And find love.


2)  When some are scoffing,
     Some are laughing,
     Some are teasing,
     And life's not pleasing...

3)  When eyes are crying,
     Times are trying,
     No one's minding,
     And life is grinding...
