LIES.. It's very Tricky
A deceitful
crafty craft
Too Sucky
ingratiating and obsequious.
Picky is the teller
fussy, faddy and choosy
a picky eater
Pick the MOUTHS Up
The teller
Leaves the EAR Down
The told
And the BRAIN fooled
Living you
Vulnerable and vandalize
Living in absolute
Deceits and fear
LIES... Very bitter
When the TRUTHS
Prevails
Nothing can be
Hidden forever
LIES... It blocks your
Chakra
The consequences
Spiritual!!!
LIES... It brings you
Instant gratification.
be the victor
Physically!!
LIES... Some are illusion
For survival, Being
Told for GOOD reason
And others for
Manipulation just
to Destroy another.
All i wanted
All i wanted was to say sorry. Then he moved and that's okay. I mean I totally
didn't want to say something to like my world's biggest crush no no. but now I know that some kids in my class decided to vandalize his house while on vacation like they broke the windows they left the bath running they egged it and for what for pleasure for kicks i don't know but at least i know i was not my fault.
All i wanted
by Starla Bruno
Racking anguish vandalize my soul,
as my pen crawls across the empty page,
leaving the mirror image of my vitality.
A futile exercise turns into self pity.
A useless effort in self agitation.
Months of inactivity has left my muse
abused, misused, defused.
It seems I can write no more.
Is that correct? Is it the writing or the muse?
Writing is discipline, a few words each day.
Do I countervail my imagination?
For subjects must be born within the soul,
that soul I forgot about months ago.
Should I dream of valleys green,
or ice capped mountain unassailable?
Is my muse so hermetically sealed.
Perhaps I'll find it again....or perhaps not.
A Silent One Contest
Cecilia’s silliest cause:
To vandalize parks for guffaws.
The cops quickly caught her
When Bob Brickley’s daughter
Saw saucy Cece saw seesaws.
accursed creepily haunting
Phantasmagoria wraiths
vandalize residents psyches
within their sleep induced state
Sublimation shunts
slumbering souls
unknowingly held hostage
successfully sacrificing
Semi-smothered silent species
snoring simians steadfastly succumb
subsequent sibilant sounds
woo woebegone wicked transmogrification
dilapidated divested bodies deposited
wizard waves wand
watching whirling wretched lovely bones
whipsawing (in toto) within abyss
whooshing whistling wheezing
whets warlocks appetite wakening
brutish nasty nightmare
sinister hulking spirits
steal assorted corporeal essence
monstrous mashing somnambulant
mephistophelian shadowy satanic satyrs
supremely swallow senior citizen bankers
deep within catacombs
of Highland Manor,
deadened defeated Delphic Oracle
relegates human husks,
viz spent embodiments
to the under world lay siege
sinisterly seeding, via sinister spirits
one pure evil particularly wicked
witch thy capering
sickening ghastly plot against
unsuspecting spouse snatched
parch trey gnarled warty claws.
Caregiver
Caregiver,
You came into our family
As a river of hope.
Ever flowing, always there,
Providing loving care,
So we could cope.
Caregiver,
You became an uncaring taker.
With your undue influence
You spent her money
On your own selfish wants.
Under false pretenses, you dragged her along daily,
Using her vehicle for your own personal errands.
Like a foe you fought our family!
As we became wise to your machinations.
And when your goose was finally cooked,
Your last act was to vandalize in secret,
Leaving her heartbroken.
Oh, Uncaring Taker,
How unconscionable were your actions.
How hateful you became.
Why were you this way?
How I would like to make you pay,
But it's her wish to leave it this way.

Regardless of reasons, no one’s heart do tear
Beat your chest, but dare to care
In every eventuality, display care and concern
Above all, blame and game endeavor to discern.
Regardless of reasons, no one’s heart do vandalize
Beat your chest, but dreams dare to analyze and stabilize
In every eventuality, display courtesy
Above all, let personal pride amplify and dignify your partner’s mercy.
Regardless of reasons, no one’s heart do pulverize
Beat your chest, but your thoughts and actions dare to sanitize
In every eventuality, display consideration
Above all, multiply and satisfy amiable affection.
Regardless of reasons, no one’s heart do break
Beat your chest, but prized possession for love dare to stake
In every eventuality, display humility and honesty
Above all, for your partner’s sake cultivate tenets of temerity.
Some parts of poem to think about using in other poems.
Mention Apprehension
What I really had been meaning to mention,
Is that when there is a lot of apprehension,
May bother,
Each other,
And always affected by all the pretension.
Jim Horn
With deep regret mind was set
And worse yet was deep in debt.
Hemisphere had been here year by year.
Adipose was gross dose by dose.
Battle, rattle, tattle
Enact, subtract, crack, lack
Animosity, curiosity, viscosity, velocity
Realize, stabilize, supplies
Ostracize, cries, vandalize
Surmise and surprise and realize
Validity, stupidity, felicity, complicity
Concupiscent, reminiscent, extent
Circumstantial, exponential, potential
Exceptional, perceptional, still
Convey a way today
Illicit, complicit, visit
Directed, selected, corrected
Devoid, annoyed, tabloid, destroyed
War, For, Anymore
Adore, deplore, ignore
Artistic, realistic, humanistic
Evicted, convicted, restricted, depicted
Rain caused water to drain resulting in much strain
Convey a way to display
Emanate and create a way to celebrate
Mettle, Settle, kettle
Riddle, middle, fiddle

my decrepit, shellacked, pain
it stretches my melodic thinned soul
into flickering multi-colored
shattered pieces
of what could have been (Might-have-been)
of sad, no-one gives a dam tunes
stroked on loosen string
sounding like two lovers crying in the night
till my cracking stiffen back
slowly bends over
as I try an musically scrutinize
each fallen departed melody (piece)
but my imperfect memories
brake my vandalize, person
and my meek legs become weakened
I buckle and fall shamefully
on jagged hostile rocks
because I, let myself realize
just how forcibly violated
I truly am
no truer look, need be closer
and i fall
upon my own bed of soiled grief
shouting and crying
only to ball up
in a self aware hate
I loathe, you singing liar
not because you stolen
my words on paper
but how you came about it
hurting little souls and tiny young fingers
to reach your goals
just to sing
on a glittering cover hell-bound stage
This wallpaper is dying
never having seen the sun
light crucifies all dark
This life has stained my ears
stolen my sight from seeing
I am a house without a heart
Beyond all sins
Dark red rivers I swim
for sanity is knocking at my door
From these pores, I seek
A truth that now has spoken
Etched in the gallop of stolen time
In the garden of discontent
The lilies have withered
stigma of scent
Falls upon me
You are a book of skin
You are a book of history
Sometimes I thought I could read you
When I skipped a page etched too deeply
In the echo of your memory
I spoke , once too often
I spoke, once too late
My vagabond dream still floats
And only to you...
Now crush me kindly
Vandalize my aching spirit
I am a book of skin
I am a book of history
Now read me not
No more...
We’re upset when vandals
desecrate a cemetery
and disrespect the dead
not so much when doctors
vandalize the womb
and desecrate the living
Donal Mahoney
Fly with small wings
To admire the serene sky
Hover the nice views
Wing lonely, afar
Recall scenic motherland
Colorful forest
Evergreen mountain
Clean, clear lakes and rivers
Yellowness rice field
Timberland in fire
The human deforestation
Vandalize the nests
The nest shattered
Will rebuild for surviving
Hold up with true song
Challenge all dangers
To keep the powerful mind
Confront the lubbers
Feathers stripped
And the wings and legs broken
Hold up with brave song
Fly with small wings
Stand tall with long-lasting song
Prevail tyranny
Protestors are in the streets, blocking traffic even causing death.
They vandalize cars, ignite fires with continual crimes and assault police.
The president speaks to them now, tells them - do not remain silent!
We watch a clear act of empowering these actions right before us,
Instead of condemning this lawlessness and anarchy.
This is not speaking for the law abiding victims of these riots.
It is giving the message to protestors in the streets - continue.
Do not remain silent?
This is not about freedom of speech being stopped.
This is not about peaceful assembly to continue.
This is about the destruction of property, businesses,
Violence in our streets and lives lost in the process
With a president who thinks they should ‘march on’.
Heidi Sands
As my fingers punches each letter
And vandalize the blank wall
Purging what's inside, at most all bitter
The lonely journey of the bliss less soul
Why? Of all emotions
At most I choose the time of my pain
To evaporated into the clouds
And turns the season into rain
I am looking for that colorful sign of hope
But sometimes I'm getting tired
Living my life on this endless loop
Misery always transpired
But why those blind aren't quitting life's game
Hopeful and thankful to the mighty Lord
By then my eyes shattered some tiny white grains
That touches the face of my keyboard

Mysterious Aries
This feedlot of ancestral glitter
how tiresome, now a rummaged litter
a mitigated financed quitter
the addict, driven to mass rid stir!
As nature's boundaries pray beauty
the homeward bound, lost soul's forced duty
is to give in, give up, take booty
as dignity's rebuff thrives loosely!
Monopolizing wealth's consider
the numbers game, let live on bitter
your choice is here, from us, don't quiver
but take the drug, that made you sicker!
The addicts prayer is but a flicker
of hope to ride out, faith's endeavor,
as saying NO, still presses lever
insidious pressures force is ever!
The pushers living off receivers
to modify their conscious efforts
then vandalize the paycheck's rather
and hypnotize feeling together!
