Short Vandalised Poems

Rampant vandalism looming
Threatening important developments
Hampering the progress of viable projects
Disheartening to find complete structures
Badly damaged and materials stolen
To replace vandalised materials is proven
Difficult and waste of resources
Now which lesson can vandals be taught
Why must vandals be so?

Marks on her skin replace kisses of him,
Protection from insecurity, everything short of purity.
Burdens worn like makeup, 
Hiding her eyes - vandalised by breakup
She’s been on this throne for as long as is known,
Regret is apart, so much isn’t home.
Hoping for more than doing as she can
Scars on her skin replace pictures of them...

Some little bastards TPed my house and my yard.
I put them over my Knees and spanked them hard.
They ran home and told their moms and pops.
Thirty minutes later I was arrested by some cops.

I spent Halloween night behind bars.
Those kids returned and egged my car.
They also left a flaming bag of poop at my door.
They vandalised my house but at least their butts were sore.

(THIS IS A FICTIONAL POEM.)...

The city and its steel plant are now "completely liberated" after 531 Ukrainian troops left the site, the Russian defence ministry said.

Completely {
	levelled, depopulated, desolated,
	despoiled, vandalised, looted, pillaged, plundered, 
	devastated, desecrated, ravaged, violated, emptied,
	laid waste, 
	razed to the ground, 
	scorched from the face of the earth, 
	annihilated, obliterated, eliminated. But 
	}
Liberated....

You did many things,
And most you should not be proud of.
You broke my heart,
Made me cry at night,
Went to a police department,
Vandalised a car.
But there is one thing that 
I love you for right now,
You inspired me, 
The words that I am saying,
The songs that I am singing,
The tears that I'm shedding,
The poems I'm writing
All because of You.

For someone that I fell in love with,
then hated for breaking my heart, Eric Hoey....
