List Number Something: Words I Hate
1. Cremains. Please save such sporty word fusions for the likes of 'J Lo' or ;bronde' not what is leftover from the immolation of an adored one. Additionally, cremains sounds like macaroni. Wasn't there a brand
of macaroni called creamettes? No to "creamins". A thousand times no.
2. Moist. Yeah, I know. You hate it too. Let's form a Moist Haters club.
3. Classy: If you call yourself classy, you're not.
4. Spendy. Tacky way of saying expensive
5. Supper. Don't ask me why. Unless it's a light evening meal taking...

X Axed
Ironic
That the letter X
As the first letter
Is hardly x-rated
It's use now
Seems a little dated
Xanadu, and xylophone
No longer alone
Could easily begin with an S
And x-ray, and x-rated
Soon to be ex-rated
Without excess
Now the ex x

And man,
I cannot say
that everything is okay,
it's turning into a problem
and I don't know if anything
or anyone can stop it
and man, I cannot speak
for something you did,
i'm a watchtower and
the search lights are
burning your eyes
and man, I cannot do
anything to help you,
the only way out is to
face it all through by
breaking that code
and man, you
oughta spend
it looking in
the mirror.

Not Sure.
I want to write poems, lines & things.
Through not sure what is right to write.
I've written things not yet published.
That may sound bitter to another
Not my intention to offend & blame.
But rather myself to be as I am.
My thuth to my self to be,
As i'm perceiving it to be.
I'm going through a thing at moment.
Thoughts are clouding my mind.
Confusing me further.
Sure there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Hope it not a train
Coming from the other end.

Makes you go hum
🙊🙈🙉 There is always gonna be good versus evil forces, no matter how much you don't care, to stop and look and listen, for even through centuries back in time of biblical beliefs. WE stood as one nation under one GOD OF COMMAND. But yet instead here we are still fighting against the evil forces, for political games that they say that the greatest, thing the devils in human skin has done was to have some of you to believe, that he doesn't really don't exist. 🤔 YET here we are now in 2025, still going through things that are really unnecessary, and for what...

Pun blossom
In the garden of words
I plant a pun or two
Cultivating humor
with a laugh that's overdue.
I carrot all about you
you make my heart beet
lettuce turnip the fun
don't squash the upbeat.
You’re a-maize-ing.
A real fungi to be with.
Mushroom for love
in our punny myth.
You're the apple of my pie,
the cherry on top.
Together we’re grapeful,
we’re the cream of the crop.
Even when I feel
melon-choly and blue,
I know I've got a friend
who's truly grape and true.

A not so wordy poem
Words can never cover
all the things i want to state
but may make some faint impression
with the facts i now relate

Wordsmith
I am the architect of words; a verbal alchemist
Weaving rhymes so seamless; they transcend the mist.
Each syllable I sculpt; a diamond refined
A tapestry of thoughts; the rarest you'll find.
I'm the new age sage; a Shakespeare upgrade
A timeless cascade where brilliance is displayed
A wordsmith supreme; with verses tailor-made
Crafting lines so sharp; they never will fade
I breathe life to letters; make the mundane explode
A master of the metaphor; I decode and reload
Each stanza’s a canvas; each rhyme’s a parade

Stretches across borderlines
How did we get here in this moment in time when the good shall verses the evil forces, that are hell bent willing to destroy this country, over power and corruption something that has no weight when it's about human life. BUT yet it will leave behind, trails of blood stains that stretches, for miles across our borderlines. But instead we are going through some rough times. 😭 THAT by the grace of God Almighty a blessing is on the horizon, that will bring the world. 🌎 Back from the belly of the war hogs setting the stages for world war 3 😠 But instead it comes as a...
