#nagging - Hello Poetry

He stood on the front porch wandering through Anger in his voice as he speaks The message on his face could be decoded He roams with misery everywhere he goes His reputation preceeds him

The Nagging Stranger

He stood on the front porch wandering through Anger in his voice as he speaks The message on his face could be decoded He roams with misery everywhere he goes His reputation preceeds him

It's paining, My heart is aching Something is sadden Because I am feeling, a Joylessness and hurting, If I see you, I am boring I am suffering I am nagging Feeling hatred and Fall in hatred

Fall in hatred

It's paining, My heart is aching Something is sadden Because I am feeling, a Joylessness and hurting, If I see you, I am boring I am suffering I am nagging Feeling hatred and Fall in hatred

Don’t cut all your food up before you eat it: Slice as you go. And don’t mix up your curry and rice first: Take some curry, add some rice… “But I can eat it all at once this way”. Cut your box hedge only once or twice per year. “That will let it grow six foot high instead of four though”. Do all your shopping at once. Plan ahead so you don’t have to nip out for things. “Hate shopping. Rather buy as and when.” Put your Geraniums in pots over winter. “I’ll need hell of a lot of pots! Will break the roots Digging them out Of that claggy soil.” Your Artex could have Asbestos in it: That could be dangerous. “I’m not about to drill into it And breathe in the dust am I?” What you don’t know when your car MOT and tax are due? “My garage knows and they look after me. But I checked them on the internet now. The garage is right.” You didn’t know you’d paid off your mortgage And you claimed for a moat? “I’m a politician”. Why do you put all that ******* on Facebook? “Because my friends Love my posts and say so.” You are supposed to… You shouldn’t… You should… You mustn’t… You Must! "People!"

The false crisendo of your words Grate against my every nerves. Wandering round With ****** feet How many expectations Have I failed to meet? What more do you want Of my sorry soul When I cannot bring My self to breath anymore? So I watch your hopes all tumbling down It feels quite cold Down here in the ground. I'm sorry that I wasn't enough I tried to be what you asked of me But I didnt think it'd be So tough. My weary bones creak and ache, My wrist all burned and ****** Can you not be quite just once for my sake? I understand the gravity. I know Im failing at life, But you dig right in, spreading the cavity, How to ignore the strife? Whispered arguments bleed through the walls How much longer until we fall? Through the floor straight down to hell All because I could not tell. Should I weep in pain, And slave away, To satisfy you're whimsical ways? Should I sell my soul, And bite my tongue, Just to keep the wallet full? But "your so young, You've no excuse, So bend your back, Put those hands to use." Welcome to life. Put away your pain, No time for strife, No time for play, Just nod you head, Exit the stage, And get a job, So you'll be payed. I'd sooner live a poor church mouse, Then lose myself in persute of a house. But no, I'll smile my candy grin, And talk with sugar sweet. Hide the weight of the pain, So your expectations, I'll meet.

A beautiful butterfly beams by in the brisk bright morning hours. The alliteration of the first line is enough to make you swoon. Beauty comes in many forms as such as an amazing altogether auspicious line of aggressive, aggrandizing well written word play But just think of the amount of well written expression that was possible with any of those starter lines. Instead you are full of nagging narcolepsy that nags at your knees. Falling below even the fewest standards
