Time to flush away

Time to flush away

A Poem by Jack...
"

To you and you know who you are (and so do we)

"

Time to flush away

by jack

 

 

Are you who you say you are?

What should we believe?

Picking up these café crumbs

Trying to deceive

 

Changing names like underwear

Faces forged for free

Taking poets renderings

Nothing but a thief

 

Preying on the honest

Stalking of the young

Drooling like the troll you are

Speak with forked tongue

 

Jagged little fingers

Still you can not write

Staging every victim

Filling them with fright

 

Carving your existence

On another’s verse

Satan as a poet

Could not be much worse

 

We should slap your parents

For giving you a name

That you are afraid to use

Because you are ashamed

 

Nothing but a termite

Chewing up the wood

I hope your mouth has splinters

No, that would be too good

 

Why not pack a suitcase

Everything you own

Travel very far from here

Just leave us alone

 

Are you who you say you are

If so that is ok

If not, you’re just a piece of crap

Time to flush away

Featured Review

I believe hard not to repeat some words. I have study poetry in college and read all the master of poetry that I could. I tell the young people. Read the old timers like William Cowper, Richard Crashaw , Alexander Pope and John Milton. There are many other. They were the first word-men who used words and thoughts to open doors to thoughts and wonder. I don't get too excited when someone borrow a line or two from me. We learn from each other. To steal a complete poem is very wrong. I believe a writer's goal is to motivate another to think and write. A excellent poem. Few people have style that are hard to copy. I would love to be able to write like Dante and describe like George martin. Thank you.

Think i said similar though nowhere as well to someone last evening who left a wretchedly arrogant comment for a fifteen year old! You've gathered a well.meaning body of people to stand up and be counted, to speak out about those so and so's who think they have rights to be unkind under the guise of helpful reviewers. Thank you so much, Jack.

These words are truly yours, my friend! I love the write...it was visual, etheral, introspective and it really had something to say! So much of what I read, here and everywhere really, is just beautiful words with nothing to really say, and this is certainly something that "screams". I loved it.

Thanks so very much. Just a little steam being released.
no one could steal these words, jack! this is necessary and impressive. i applaud you for this write! now, let's hear a round of swirling toilet water for these self inflated overblown egos who think it is their sole purpose in life to deal out scathing crap to every writer here who is learning to hone their craft and would do better with encouragement and positive reviews instead of "not bad" or "i would have been more satisfied with" what their interpretation would have been if they, in fact, had anything to offer other than drivel and negativity....maybe they should go play with the bigger fish if they are so impressive. thank you jack, for this wonderful write and expose.....

Thanks Quinn, just shooting my mouth off again.
Painted faces on the wall... which one is the most honest one of all?

I found the poem very thought provoking! Like a riddle almost, but not.

Well done! And Bravo ;)

Thanks so much, this was probably not a good first poem of mine to read.
Well now that is to the point isnt it. We here all know those who pretend to be someone they are not. Or just lay waste all they encounter in the name of fun i suppose. And hide behind their avatars. What could possibly be the reason for hiding in plain sight.So Apropos

Thanks Tate, I figured I'd step into the fray and lend a piece of my mind.
Hmm... Apparently there's something going on around here that I'm not noticing. (Not unusual, I don't stay and socialize very much on the site) Powerful write!

Hahaha well that about wraps it up for public service announcements for the night! Perfect with the goings on around here lately... You know the people that this pertains to won't read it or won't recognize themselves....good message, they don't deserve such a pristine bathroom though!
