Best Blacklist Poems
Satire in Limerick Acts
Act One: the stage and scenery are set
I was told the play, I'd not soon forget
But if truth were to be told
More like the game, whack-a-mole
I needed a hammer, not a lorgnette
Thespians were vying for the limelight
Popping up everywhere, ready to fight
Sarcastic words ill spoken

Interesting enough
in these crooked times
it is impossible to make a man like you,
or your art,
especially with unbounding determination.
Nevertheless,
It sure is mighty easy to attain their...

The Great Ordealthe marked must go quietly in the night
without a word of farewell
through the trembled dust
down the dark road from which they say
no one returns
the gods who made Africa
strike fear upon the living
comfortless
vituperative
rampaging through our lands:
freedom is a hoax
we abandon ourselves
to the crudely dug dungeon
the pit...

Elites Who Are Not EliteWe see them sitting in towers
carved from ‘learned’ ivory,
insulated by their tenure
from the world of reality,
poisoning their students minds,
putting bad ideas in their heads,
the kind that in a century
left one hundred million souls dead.
They know they face no consequence,
they even blacklist all others,
it’s the students...

To the Pe TeacherI'm over it
I'm giving up
I don't have to do it
Yet you force me to like I'm a chump
I avoid it like an illness
You let it go
But today is the day
You took it no more
You didn't yell
Yet you exchanged insults
You hurt my feelings
That was the result
You...

The SnakeTHE SNAKE
The terror of night; the terror of day,
The longest creature on earth and sea.
In length, I am fearful to men, In braveness, man worship me;
I have no hands non legs, yet I move faster than others.
In the...

One Man Army of the Appocalypse2 million suicidal babies

ModestyModesty where has it gone
Does it no longer exist
Are there no boundaries now
Is morality on the blacklist?
Everything on display
For all the world to see
Oh ,how times have changed
In the world of modesty
Young girls in early teens
Dressed so scantily
Unaware of the effect
Of the message...

Sliders of Candaharthe 400 undercover cops
that have been trained to solve your drug problem
that you don't recognise creeping across your land
gaining information and proof
the cult of cartoons to mark you for what you are
1st things first
your precinct will be informed they are under citizens arrest
quite frankly the...

The WondererIn this land I have the will to stand free
Once lying to faith of that of wretched kings and wench queens
Walking the earth against the hot blistering winds
Life has always tried to take my breath and damage my sight
But still I live
I’ve experienced the abomination...

MeditationsThis funny thing we come to know as life,
Both a blessing & a curse in darkness & in light.
Old men sending youngins to fight.

Is it truly out of mind when done out of sight?
The unseen shadows see what is not...

Richman ShenanigansHow is it my fault that I took a leap of faith
Like any naive girl in townships looking for good life
I mixed with wrong people who promised me soft life in Dubai
Excitement journeyed my mind to things I can buy
Little did I know...

Sonnet No 9Oh demonic inner anguish! How can you persist,
Like a never ending torture in my childish mind?
Will you never let me go and leave my name behind?

Please! At least remove all happy days that still...

Wicked WindsEye of the tiger among forest mist

Or jaguar with that has a bite force caiman’s armor cannot resist
