Best Spite Poems

Of fair love I dreamed
Of true love I received-
What rose could be
So sweet?

But now my heart grieves
For the love far from me-
What thorn could be
So spiteful?...

T-ill the end of time, 
R-emain faithful and steadfast, 
I-n spite of trials. 
C-omplete the great race 
I-n life set by the Lord God, 
A-s you obey Him.

(Tongue planted firmly in cheek)





In spite of my loving nature

In spite of being an Olympic skater

In spite of my charming way with the ladies

And my absolute love of wee babies

In spite of having a voice that rocks

And looks so dashing wearing just socks

In spite of...

I know I act annoyed or put out when you call me frequently
during the day in spite of the fact your only doing it because
you miss me. Yet you still place me on a pedestal.

I know at times I complain about something you cooked in...

No safe harbor free from storms
Only a calm lake resides in the heart,
Surrounded by rugged mountains
And the angry sky with flashing light.
 
Out of the dark clouds fell rain
Fear abode in the lightening display,
And waterfall tumbled down the mountain,
While animals and people scurried away.

Just a little word with
So many guises 

Incoherent inefficient ineffective reaction
Inconsistent blame 
Vengeful malaise
Conscious disregard 
Blameless resolve
Sanctimonious irksome indifference
Creative revenge 
Wreckage for sport 
Intensive bigotry
Hyperbolic generalisation
Disinterestedness
Complacent autocratic dogma
Crass philistine opportunism
Nimble forgetfulness
Vigorous ignorant diatribe
Impotent nostalgia

All in a day’s work for those
Whose envy knows no bound...

IN SPITE OF MILING FRUSTRATION

Let not the miles and mile
Downs and frustrates
Our longings and hoarse feelings
As distance is another promise
To remain steadfastly true.

Frustration is wishful distraught alkaline
Keeping us to be alive
Through artificial life sustaining button
Hindrance is an insulin
To be posted from time to time.

If not...

No reason to complain, us North American dudes
We've even got wives with nice butts and boobs
Ten little kids running around
My aching head does surely pound
But in spite of the mayhem I'm still in a great mood

I walk towards you with my eyes in a mist
I think of what might be and still i am drawn towards your kiss
Your anger echoes in my head sometimes afraid you might raise your fist
But still i stand and face you in spite of all...

"The Spite Syllabub"



The daughter 
is not 
The mother 

Sylvia’s bees were
left milk, bread and butter

Plath by name
but not 
the daughter’s path

in evolving nature
not the mother
nor the father

Love for art’s sake
Art not for Love’s sake

Amy G. Dala
a spoonful of honey
taken with the medicine

This is Love
The tincture...

In spite of my efforts…
to Break the relationship…
or efforts to totally Forget about you ...
I still cannot understand why my tears start to break so silently...
something cries deep down in my soul..
Which still could not forget about you...

They say what goe's around come's around
You know I'm sure that you will soon discover
To some probably seems a little bit profound
But what you do on one come's back on another

So I ask what is the point of being so bendictive
If it is only going...

~Don’t spite the child to hurt his dad
This practice is both harmful and sad
~And you wonder why he’s always mad

~He loves him as much as you 
Was by your side while in your womb he grew
~Raising a child takes more than one – it takes...
