Yeah Yeah
you didn't know she was your first cousin

Contempt breeds within the one who lets it bend them over.

The opposite of familiarity breeds contempt.
strangeness, unfamiliarity

and

it all has to do with seeing yourself as some kind of perfect being, and really doesn't bother the one you have the contempt for...you

Contempt of Court? God will tell you.

(another poet's favorite saying murdered by logic and love. Yes, I know there are people who will say my writing is violent...that's the same people it smacks around. It will be okay...when you're gone. Do you get it? Someone who is ****** has kind of a right to feel contempt for the most familiar of all.)
Stop inbreeding sickos......BOOM

Money may not
grow on trees
But far too many people
are willing to go
out on a limb for it

I have never been one
to eat my words,
no—

I regurgitate
and spit them
back into your eye.

I cut off my feet
at the ankles


so as to ensure
they never set foot
in my mouth again.

Having to eat our own words
should give us food for thought.

So sheer!

No coverage
In the rear!
Testing to see if this post gets seen or just disappears into thin air...
So many poems from other writers not showing up on my stream page.

Fireworks are a blast
Until they go off
In your garage
With you trapped inside

Success in today's
Business world
Often comes with consequences

Like finding out
The little people
You stepped on to get
To the top
Were your own children

Don't just settle
For being someone's
Flavor of the month

Learn what it takes
To make love stick
Orchid T Aspen May 2020
these birds nest out of your ribs
like heart worn on your limbs

looking game
lock picking
scrapped

from compassion for birds.
