Short Unpleasantly Poems

Always so... cordial
  Unfailingly... polite
    Cold-as-ice... phony smiles
            plastered to our faces

Tedious, boring... but not unpleasantly so
  nodding, agreeing... with nothing in particular

Infernos of hatred raging within us
  probing, never piercing, civility's placid surface...

3:54, 3:55
The glowing clock is mocking.
Its digital display deceives – 
No ticking and no tocking.

Yet seconds march along while thoughts

	thee has its ancient floor,
to make an appeal provide a new, 
filling not to be misled to classify 
the human beings as it is a shame....

L O U D

that’s  M E

until I see  R E D

then I explode

most unpleasantly

my sleeve shakes all over the place

and loudly I  B A W L

unhappily

How To Freak Out the Neighbors

By Elton Camp

In the news is a constant fuss
Government’s checking on us

We’ve been unpleasantly surprised
Our phones and e-mail scrutinized

Terrorists we don’t mind if they trace
A different view if at our home place

It would most surely astound us
If done to the neighbors around us

So here’s a fun trick that we can play
Our WiFi signal’s seen houses away

Panic may ensure if only you can
Name it “FBI Surveillance van”...
