Premium Member -Smug

Smugness in human behaviour
Is such an unappealing trait
A smug word ,a smug smile
Only provokes hate

If a smug superior attitude 
Is all you offer and deliver
Zip your mouth and lock it
And throw the key in the river!!

Trading Shoes

Smugness had finally reached its fruition
as unfairly she would jump to conclusions
folks down on their luck would leave her amused
saying this is the unfortunate path that they choose
till one day she got to walk a mile in their shoes

Hesitational Racial

pushing
hard
against
the world
of oh too serious
poetry and smugness

sex
sexuality
sensuality
sensibilities
seeminglessly
seeming stupid

endless etudes 
precluded poems
of it wasn't me it was
my muse who told me to
to do so so I had a dream
Martin Luther King wet dreams

Premium Member Shades Magic


Blue, white, and gold Are kaleidoscopic shades That mirror shades from elixir Out into the wide, blue ocean Where the waves that rock The mix that falls from the sky, Whirling into stunning stain That even a rainbow might grudge Gorgeous blush dance with smugness.

Premium Member The Desperate Smugness of a Recent Convert

We've all seen it
their cloying intensity
to the new cause:
tobacco cessation,
gluten-free digestion,
mindful rumination,
deep cleanse elimination,
erotic poetry,
for the lucky
erotic reality,
alcohol abstinence,
Yahweh's deliverance.
And we can only
smile and nod
knowing
this too will pass.


Premium Member I Smile At Her Smugness

Free winds breezing through my hair
ruffling it up, delighting in it, 
faeries laughing lightly, barely heard

A summers day, smell of fresh grass,
red tulip staunch and proud
holds her own in the garden.

I smile at her smugness,
dragonfly flits past, an ugly color
but pretty in her niceness

Sun feels happy, 
exuberant, loving.
I glory in the beauty of today.

The Road

Good winds
contain sorrow
as sorrow
holds anger
to nil.
A bright day
of content
destines to follow
fanning foreign flames
stilling them
to a glow.
Snide grins and
smugness cease
due to her subtle
inner smile.
Away from
the valley
distant horizons
call softly
while heed is taken
after weathering 
meaningless lost miles.
Unending joy awaits
on the gentle wings
of a more certain path.

On Fate

Fate looks similar to  a self-willed woman
She always gently come to you
Clinging to your shoulder when depressed
And remaining silence if smugness you have!          
She is always willing with you
And never bother to follow you up

She may be an ordinary countryside flower        
And could also behave akin to an elegant girl         
She always set the rhythm on your life
Making you chose the pain or joyous unable

Happy Clowning

The Clowns 

Happiness has an empty centre 
It is thoughtless as the surface of the moon
A passing cloud
A hindrance towards contentment 
Brutal and sadistic 
Totally self-centered 
A smooth tool to hide hatred 
The denial of other people’s right 
Smugness of the winner 
Making fun of the losers 
Happiness is the devil`s domain 
And the smaller the brain, the happier 
Is its owner 
That is way idiots laugh a lot. 
So why do film stars insist being happy
