Whist Poems | Examples


Premium MemberI'm Not Playing Whist

Here's my list
you'll get the drift
I'm not playing whist

The game has a twist
and rules may shift
here's my list

Cross the rift
please do not resist
you'll get the drift
 
Here's the gist
you'll find the gift
I'm not play whist

When claims are questioned?
Don't try to explain!
Or admit you're wrong!
Double up, Go All-In, Misère !

Whist Then Is Neither

leave it  alone
it aint worth fixin
o many actor
in this kitchen
turn it loose
leave it alone
what was love
it's now gone

alway someone else
involved in your business
knowing things
that keeps you senseless
i'm so tired
they don't won't me relaxing
turn me loose
and let me go
you aint changing
cause you aint honest
 a shady character
in our affairs
you let him in
and you won't let him
go
i'll tell the world
for all to know
turn me loose
and let me go
guess I complicated
what was decent
you needed clarity
from someone else
strengths and weakness
to gain a better understanding
I look to tomorrow
for recommending
sorted answers
leave me wondering
what opportunities
you offer to me
to recreate
our goal and mission
turn me loose
if that aint so
stop your falsing
just let me go

Pifferlaun

feeling a need to belong
she conformed to the group
and rejected my love for her

"yet the nights are long for nothing
and I am alone and ashamed
what nature is it
that men are to be alone
and what world should create the norm
as it is wrong.
speak me as your lover
and I am the happiest man in the World
Speak me as your strange and I am the saddest"

she adopted a certain dress and mannerism
this to conform to belonging
her need to present her self in a particular way
then she changes her attitude to be with them
and began thus in comparison
to find herself equal amongst them
only done so we should be apart..
might other determine how well she fits in.
that I might be wrong
in description of
her behaviors and attitudes.
all as if I never knew her

Premium MemberBe Careful When You 'Whist Your Turds'

His teacher said he was a ‘shining wit’
Little Jimmy was SO pleased
But when he told his mum and dad…
They could not be appeased!

Oh Sadness Whist

At the house of grief ..
On the beat of groaning night,
 I continued to dance.
....
Everything inside me cry
Oh sadness flakes, whist.
