I shared the last poem so you can see the creep in the comments. (If he hadn't deleted them by now)

Corny Me
Him:  "What are you up to"

Me: "Laying on the couch, watching tv"

Him: "I'd give my last bottle of insulin to be the big spoon in all that."

And just like that....the sweetest thing any boy ever said to me.

He intentionally waits to respond to her messages
So she won't know he's hanging on every word

Breaking What's Broke
Within an hour of meeting
He called me "heartbreaker."
I got the feeling
His heart was already broke
And he liked it that way

Go Figure
You ever notice how some of these "feminist" male apologists are more condescending in their apologies, than the men they are apologizing for?

It's OK
I don't need your attention
Or support
I'm not falling apart
You can not entertain yourself
With the puzzle of me
I'm not needy
So I guess I don't make you feel
Necessary
I'm not a person with a
Sad ego
Who can make you feel content about your ego
I'm not academically challenged
For you to  gain satisfaction from teaching me
In fact
I'm probably smarter than you
Do you need my attention
Or support?

WOLF!! WOOOOLF!
Cried for help
Except you don't need help
You crave attention
Pulling at heartstrings
For (What the hell is it really for?)
Someone to give you a thought
I guess
Seems futile
You're gonna have to give it back real soon
But I hope it made you feel loved
All that short-lived attention
From all those uninterested  strangers
Whatever gets your rocks off

Poor kid

(It's true.  There's a girl named "Ladasha" whose name is spelled La-a.

Recent Events
When someone has showed up unarmed
For a battle of wits
Except they don't know it
And you could tell them
But, if you tried
They'd think it was a
Psych out tactic
But they're persistent little buggers
Who honestly think they're winning
And you're having a hard time
Swallowing enough pride
To let them have the last word
Which means,
They probably are winning

Foot in Mouth Condition
Oh Crimeny Jickets
I know there are times
When I sound as ridiculous
As that poem I just read
By that other poet

When I do
Please call me on it!

Weather Advisory
Be wary of men who use the word
"Darling"
I can't tell you why
Exactly
But if you're not
Someday you can tell me

Flying
Boy, you catching me in the feels
I don't think you're even trying
I smile, now, ten times a day
You got this girl a-flyin'

(Tee Hee...Im such a **** , there are probably like six guys on here wondering if this is about them. )  (Yep...I'm slutty and proud of it)

So many boys
With beautiful minds

Too Late
Everyone cared
As soon as she died
Love shows up from all corners
After suicide

(But not before, because if you talk about suicide more than once, you'll just annoy the **** out of people, and if you talk about it too much, they'll start to think you're full of ****)

Higher Sights
If you're getting married
And expecting your wedding to be
The happiest day of your life
Maybe you should marry someone else

Poetic
Earlier today,
I heard Stevie Nicks singing Rhiannon
I was blown away by the lyrics
And thought
My God; I gotta share This!
So I looked them up
None of them really stood out
I realized the poetry was not in the words
But in the way she sang them
(Insert something poignant.)

Futile Search
I really, really, really
Need to find a sane guy
Who is crazy enough
To take me on

Please pay no attention to the last share.  It is plagiarized, and I'm trying to get it so the real writer has access.
(See Nat....you were right.)

Let God Love You
Sometimes, I read peoples' writings of God
And can't help but feel
If any other name were inserted
I'd be reading about
A controlling boyfriend
In a co-dependant relationship
With a writer blissfully unaware
Feb 2018 · 206
Confidence
Sometimes,
I believe
It's easier to admit you think you're terrible
Than it is to admit you think
You're great
I still think about you
How we could talk for hours
Without running out of things to talk about
How you are the most beautiful boy I'd ever seen
How the sound of your voice was music
You are so clever
And sweet
But then
At times
You were stupid
And mean
I could have stuck with stupid
But mean gets left on the curb

Pretender
He's not the guy who knows what women want
He's the guy who says what he thinks women want to hear
Without taking the time
To get to know any women

What???
You used some entirely too obscure words in your poem
Except
I wasn't compelled enough to look them up

Critique
Unfortunately
There is no nice way
To say
"Your poem gave me a headache"
I commented on your poem
You changed your poem
(Sellout!)
And left my comment sitting there
All schizophrenicly inclined
And uselessly out of the blue

Cue Eye Roll
Pardon me
If I'm having trouble
Not smirking at the
Lao Tzu wannabe advice
Coming from the 22 year old

Putcha back into it
That miracle daily two-minute cure
You suggested
Would probably work fine
For anyone who has
A daily two minute
Problem
(That **** only works with dental floss)

The Chase is the Best Part
He wants me,
He wants me bad
But he don't have a problem letting me know
He's likely to want the next girl
Without wanting me any less
I'm gonna let him have me
Well, like 22%
Anyways

Everytime
I'm forever stalking someone
And totally give myself away
By commenting on something
They posted four months ago.

Oh...
You gonna fall in love with me
But I promise to set you down

That Boy
He's got this way of saying exactly the best thing
Without even trying
I think that's the only way
His way is
The only way

Impressionable
Ahhh
He wants me to be impressed
He's gonna have to put in work
On what may be a futile mission
He might have to settle for flattered

Peacock
You really impressed me
Before you started trying so hard to impress me
Now you're not saying you
You're saying what you think
I want you to say
I gotta tell ya
Boo
It is unimpressive
And only proving
How little you know me
You were so much more impressive
When you weren't even trying

Bucket List
I don't want to be a
Know-it-All
But I think it is
Imperative
That every adult
Should sing
"This Little Light of Mine"
With a child under ten
At least more than once

What's in a Name?
His greatest accomplishment as a poet
Was picking out irrisistable titles
To name his poetry

Self Stranger
You describe yourself
And I can't help but notice
You have no idea who you are

Stubborn is Sexy
He doesn't love you in return
You fall apart
Proving he was right

Helpless
It's not a poem about suicide
It's a cry for help
But help doesn't come with instructions
So we're all sitting here
Trying to figure
...
Just trying to figure
How to be helpful
Helplessly

Plaudits
It's unlikely I'll ever make "THE DAILY."
(Woo hoo, to you who do)
I'm more of a chipping away with a pick
Than setting up the dynamite
Type of writer.

Fortune Cookies
Your poems remind me of
Fortune cookie inserts
Offering advice
Instead of wisdom
Without good advice
Or
Enough stupidity to be entertaining
And fortune cookies are so **** bland
When paired with bland fortunes
But maybe those in the far East
Will find your poems exotic
Pay no attention to my critique
Because I don't know ****

If Only
I loved him because he was smart
And so good-looking, for sure
Not once did I tell him I loved him
Where he didn't say, "I love you more."
But he lives so far away
More than a thousand miles
And neither of us could up and leave
.....
No rhyme or reason to this one.
Feb 2018 · 98
Yuck!
He's one of those guys who thinks
He's being totally ****
Except women get queasy
Reading about his
"Quart of love juice."
That he honestly believes
We are dying to ingest
Dude has watched more ****
Than live *****

Pretenses
You lost me at "cacophony."

Mr. Perfect
I like everything about you
All I know so far
I feel your presence on this Earth
Exactly wherever you are
Your humor
And humanity
Such a huge turn on to me
I'll probably never tell you so
I'm not sure that you need to know
Telling you might change our way
A lot to lose with just one say
Feb 2018 · 225
Hmmm.
It's odd how we imagine
Winged-humans with
human arms

Yup

All about how you never

Has blocked me because I told her I didn't want to hear about how she has been sexually harassed.
