"condescending" poems
Found myself at a dental clinic... He was the best there was. Unorthodox and eccentric, But to the specialised craft, he was boss. Ran through the bits and bobs Like any normally would. The poking and prodding and the mandible X-rays. Everything cold and clinical, so was the mood. Strange was what happened next... Specialist and I then stood facing each other. He leaned close and pressed his palms against my rib cage. Held them there over a few breaths before it was over. Then a brief chat, small talk initiated by the man. Bespectacled and exceedingly chatty, small in stature. Talks of politics and odd human behaviours... What started off as friendly turned into a heated banter. I then realised that along with his decorated credentials, Was his propensity to be condescending and arrogant. Him being the best, I thought I could let it all slide, But soon enough I opted out of being a willing participant. Couldn't stand his abrasive cockiness! I snapped out of being cordial and passive thought. I wanted him to just stop talking! I went, "Well, are you going to fix my teeth or not?!" He was stunned momentarily... I suppose he hadn't seen that coming. Then his features softened to a blank I could almost read the unspoken words he was conjuring. With an exasperated sigh of resignation, He uttered his next words swollen with regret "There's no need...for you only have four years left." It dawned upon me that my timer has been set. And then I woke up...

Strange Dream
Life is a beautiful condescending labyrinth of emotions. Some of us just get mixed up in between it all. Feeling nothing.

Numbness
Not an enigmatic smile Like the constipated, condescending smirk Adorning, and inexplicably adored, on the Mona Lisa's smug face; But a smile to justify God's existence; A smile that, when dazzlingly bestowed Upon one fortunate soul, caught rabbit-like in its Wondrous radiance, infinitesimally, and cumulatively, Increases the World's joy. Where every living thing - Whatever exists on the planet, imperceptibly hums To a new, more celestial pitch - An effervescent vibration celebrating Life's mysteries: A reason for existence. It's a smile to make an Alchemist cry - Turning a leaden heart to gold in an instant. It's a smile to make a mediocre poet struggle To articulate an adequate description Using all the hyperbole, simile and metaphor at his limited disposal. Inestimably more brilliant, and more valuable, Than the most flawless diamond ever found - And, perhaps, just as rare. Thankfully, a renewable resource, Enabled to enlighten and heat The recesses of any beneficiary's Heart and invigorate their soul. Helen may have caused a thousand ships to sail, Destroying a nation as a consequence; And Cleopatra nearly caused the collapse of an Empire; But Tao's smile, unleashed in all its glory Could melt the Antarctic ice-sheet - Drowning us all in its magnificence. Mayan's have a myth that states such a smile Only comes around once every twelve thousand years, In the Great Galactic turning. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity Is often mistakenly considered to concern gravity, But is, in fact, concerned with one's relative position To Tao's smile - an inescapable vortex of pleasure. No music conceived of the fabled Celestial Spheres Compares to the silent, ethereal harmonies tattooing my heart Whenever, beacon-like, that smile flashes fleetingly in my direction. And Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle has not a Quantum core, But revolves around the statistical uncertainty of being blessed With the ephemeral thrill of a benign grim.

Hyperbole of a Smile

I'm stressed, I'm angry, They don't understand, The rage that burns within me, The fury in my veins. "It's adolescent thinking, That rush in your brain, The twitching of your fingers, The scorching of your heart." Yet they don't seem to see, With their condescending eyes, That the feelings trapped within me, Are more than adolescent. The rage I feel to **** The need for blood to spill, The coating of metallic liquid, Over my pristine knuckles. To them I'm very simply, A 'normal adolescent', And my fury will flee, When I finally mature. But I can see it in their eyes, The suppressed demons that they hide, Away from the public eye, From their 'adolescent' years. So until I'm what they call 'mature', I'll just have to stay, Angry, uncontrollable, And simply adolescent.

Darkness. Laying here, alone weary empty I've withdrawn into deep shadows I can't see the pain but your voice, your condescending rage rattles against my cage. I've never understood you...I blame the drink for randomly possessing your eyes seeing me as a target. I don't know what to expect. physical or mental it's all torment. I'm sick of walking on the eggshells which litter that fabric which we used to lay on together. Now I hide from you, from your demons that can't find me in my darkness. Darkness.

Darkness
Your first position of power Feeling you don't get the respect You think you deserve I almost pity you Treating us like dogs But with a guise of politeness "Ma'ams" and "pleases" can't hide your contempt Your patronizing tone washes it all away Doctors bark at you, you say? Patients don't respect you? Poor you, you deserve the world Right, try being us for a day Your lying mouth never stops Complaining, explaining As if we're completely ignorant As if we can fix your problems Your favorite activity The one at which I roll my eyes Is telling us how much you hate The profession YOU chose Perhaps you're just upset That all our young minds Can change our paths Nothing for us is set in stone Condescending, you sneer "I am your boss" ***** you've been here Less time than I have What gives you the right To judge these people? Sure, they're self-entitled Demanding and belittling But have you looked in the mirror lately?

It's that time of the Patriot's year Postseason playoff games are in full gear The road to the Superbowl, I cheer But not for the big, bad grissly bear That takes every opponent's fate without fear That's right the big bad bear without peer I'm snickering the Patriot's to cry a tear Nothing would make me so happier, I swear Fricken, dicken, bitchen Patriots beware To see another Bostonian tea party, I glare I do show respect at the Patriot's lair Brady and Belicheck what a podded pair Steady, stoic and simulcast, condescending I declare You see a Patriots playoff loss is so rare Their team profile is beyond compare A well oiled machine that wear Goliath close over David with regular fare The road to this year's Superbowl Sunday, I say a prayer That the other teams flag is flying patriotically in the air Logan Robertson 1/11/2019

No To The Patriots Road To The Superbowl
In the worst of times, martyrs will march barefooted  into foreign lands   To toil its earth with flesh and sweat and blood They jaunt  north to south searching for milk and honey   and gold coins to put in their empty pockets They stop to find out that they cannot walk barefooted For the road is nothing but thorns and hot sand that scorch the feet The merciless air is aloof and condescending These people, they suffered   for their skin cracks in the winter and burns in the rain Their tongue aches from speaking a different language:    voices turned into an unfathomable cadence Frail skin torched like a hot tar to tissue paper    leaving only blackened soot They come home with a dry mouth and scarred heart These heroes will look up above into the cold night sky    to look for inkling of stars that guided them For there is nothing sweeter than to bring food back home To where hungry mouths and empty hands suffer in pain

I see the purpose now Those who use insecurities Those who are condescending They only put fear into their coffee A fear that someone will see the world's opportunity Bitterness has never been fact nor reality Their statements will never be anymore, always less stability Turn their sentences into silence and keep smiling Never let someone's weakness destroy your happy

For every condescending syllable, that has slipped out of your. Serpent like tongue. Wish I could squash you with my black leather boots & watch you squirm. & Gasp for air. Like I have done, so many times before your black-hole-eyes. But, that wouldn't be the Christian thing to do. Good thing. I got excommunicated. Now, suffer.

I hate you.
I dream of a society Where the ideals of beauty Are less focused on superficial concepts like one's waistline Or how decrepit their smile lines made them appear But rather one where the focal point of unanimous adoration is, As corny as this may sound, One's morals and where they land on the gradient of human compassion In this utopia, The elderly aren't seen as catalysts for repugnance and a wrinkling of noses But rather as symbols of eruditeness and beauty The type of beauty that influence or money can't obtain And it may be conceivable that instead of wasting my days squandering over my physical appearance, I can just fritter away the days Strumming my ukulele along to the tune of my American dream For I have yet to actually awaken from my adolescent slumber Breifly enough to grasp my dream from the bubble floating above my resting head And nestle it securely in my pocket So it doesn't forgo me In search of someone less complacent with bewilderment about their future Who dreams of social and economic prosperity Instead of someone who's apathetic at best about whatever career choice they've chosen for the week Maybe that's just it That maybe I don't want the conventional American dream of fame or fortune or recognition Is it feasible that maybe my American dream isn't to rise from sqaulor into a soulless mansion Whose corridors boast success But lack warmth and presence? I suppose that my American dream encompasses more than just America itself It lives in the eyes of every human being on the face of the earth It's nestled in the gaze of a starving child And the stare of anyone who's ever felt a tongue's razor edge And all I'd have to do is delve into their eye sockets and plant a seed A seed of hope and compassion Or whatever I deem fit Perhaps I just want to shield myself From the world's disapproving glances, Those fleeting moments of eye contact that convey condescending judgement Maybe I'd just like to make a difference to things sans the media’s snide opinion But despite my juxtaposition to society's critical assessments, I know that I can't run away from my fears or problems So maybe I dream of a society Where I can remain headstrong even in the face of opposition Because I'm aware that not everyone's going to love each other And spout sweet nothings about peace and understanding from their hind quarters So maybe I'd like to help be a driving force That wards off the world's shadows So the sun can continue to shine on my American dream

My shoelaces flap side to side like one of those car-dealership inflatables arms- My veiny stompers pump puddles of pure procrastination from perceptive sprinting- Underneath the tune-buds, I cannot hear my sneakers scraping the scrap rocks of gravel- To my left- a hooting owl habitats itself in a hushed game of charades- To my right- a slick tree frog flies freely from a lofty leaf and lands in the lagoon- Elapsed images of elastic languages fill my mind with everlasting wisdom- Entertained by the watercolors, my canvas curdles and secedes the state of mind- Pressing harder- the curtain continues to close as I chase the condescending daylight- Pressing softer- the tuner in my temple turns into a terrorizing shriek from my tibia-

You wish for me to put in words What I have to say Like the answers that I've given On their own Could never relay They come and go Touch on fate Dissipate and replicate The disingenuous nature That you frequently necessitate Extend your olive branch Then act like you feed me When the branches are famished Needy, condescending and deceiving Conceiving that I'm the villain When I don't respond to how you react Like you could perpetuate in me The supposition for your tact The fact that you lack any original clarity Is the reason I'd never reach to you Like I was Seraphim The simple reason That I'm writing all of this Is simply just to prove to you That I don't have to convince I don't have to persist Rehash, then reminisce Like treading through faded memories with you Will satiate my daily fix I resist Because I know exactly where I'm headed And you insist because that truth Is what keeps us separate Every second You playcate on a pretense When your intentions are crystal clear And I can't provide that service Or serve that purpose While I'm standing here To be perfectly honest I never promised you anything All I did was sigh and reply To how your heart would so readily sing Then you project your insecurities Directly to my face As if I was the one who gave them rise Within the first place Protecting your manipulations While contemplating your motives Are exactly the reasons we're done Before we even started I'm sick of being a punching bag For someone acting devoted And now it's been denoted I've written you off, this story is done This time you're in the subject line Because you are truly NOT the one

You people never took me seriously For you, I was just a problem child Who needed to be molded According to your whims and fancies You never saw me as an individual Who has his own thoughts, feelings and emotions My opinions never mattered to you You wanted me to improve my verbal communication As well as my body language But you never even tried to understand me properly It never occurred to you That there is a reason why I am different Or even if it did, you never truly cared What bothered me the most, though Was the fact That you believed you were acting in my best interests Of course, it was my mistake Not to leave this accursed country While I had the chance And seek my fortunes elsewhere A mistake I may probably regret For the rest of my life Anyway, as Arabella Figg once said "There's no good crying over spilt potion" I was a fool to listen to you But I have progressed in life Far more than you would've expected me And not because of you But in spite of you Well, I would love to meet you one of these days And prove to you That verbal communication is overrated Just like you yourselves are We autistic people can do equally well, if not better As compared to you neurotypicals Who are obsessed with correcting others Well, please look into the mirror And just leave us alone Worse than an enemy, is an NT with a saviour complex Well, we can see right through you You may think you are being kind and empathetic However, in reality, you are just a bunch of condescending wankers Who believe they are always right Well, there is nothing wrong in having your own views Just try not to force them down our throats I will end on this note Autistic people are human beings too It is time you learned to appreciate that

Sometimes when I look at myself all I can see is ugly worthless **** I learned this from you. You taught me that nothing I ever did was good enough not for you or anyone else I would never be enough Most importantly, you taught me what love is That to love someone I have to give away everything I am my confidence my body my self-worth until I am only an empty shell of a person so they can hold power over me Sometimes when I can’t find these pieces of me I can see your face contorted with rage insistent, pleading until I obey or smirking, condescending I can hear your voice *you can’t wear that, you look like a **** I’m the only one who really loves you *I did it for you, you owe me* I don’t owe you anything. I taught myself how to love who I am Reassembling all the pieces that you stole from me took everything I had but I am beautiful. I am loveable. I am worth something. No one can ever change that.

I am worth it.
I don't have pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. I'll stay away from Yellowstone. If one's asthmatic in the Eifel region You don't pronounce the "P." This won't **** me. I don't have COPD. Everyone coughs in blue smoke. My throaty itch won't **** me. I won't constrict and choke. I don't have an infectious disease, Despite my personality. I run for shelter in acid rain. I drink water with ice cubes, And spray my green out back. As much as I hate to, I avoid rusty nails. *** is safe... and at a distance. Despite being repeatedly told to, I never eat **** The great imitator Is a snivelling mime. If I'm bitten, I recognize the marks. The erupting of the ring of fire won't **** me, but perhaps I was precocious To drop the "P" in Pneumonoultramicroscopicscilicovolcanoconiosis. I haven't succumb to animal flues, I stay clear from the bars. I donate to the SPCA, Bet on ponies or the odds of SARS. I don't have meningitis. I like lights and loud music. If I get the night sweats, I turn down my electric blanket. I haven't the minor or greater pox, I spurn comparisons. According to the scoop and scope, I ascend and descent C free. But the time spent on Referrals Might be the death of me. I don't have botulism. My smile still concaves down. Curling convex above it, A condescending frown. I'm not a ***** I feel every poke and like. My digits number twenty... Twenty one. My glasses are smudge free. If anything I see too well. Alcoholism can't **** me. Alcohol can. I haven't cardio entropy, But I'd be remiss To dismiss The wise counsel Oz gave me: "Hearts can never be made practical until they can be made unbreakable." So true. So true! Anyway, none of the above will get me. But, I do have what you have. The young and grown. The able and ill. A hand. A sweeping hand. A second hand Setting those infectious nonogerms Like diamonds In my Time-x.

The world is not complex People just say it is to hide their bull **** excuses for self justification Let us give them our admiration for their condescending inspiration Lonely is fun when your enticingly crazy Never entirely board when your consumed in self argumentative rambling A gesture I call exciting I don't deny the chaos erupting from my skulls siding Nor should anybody I have a tendency of getting delighted the moment I put my animosity on display It's kind of like my you have a "blessed day" Yes I'm ok I have daily meetings with the counselor in my head and he said this is progress

Confused good
oh, lovely – another of my ugly insecurities has come undone – unraveling from my heart, tumbling across the space between us, ungainly in its amble towards your feet. if i’m sorry, will that be too little? if i perform an even bigger act of affection (not always only for compensation) will that be too much? was it too much the last time? as you watch me scramble for words, for explanations, for comprehension of my own actions, are you sick of me? does it make your stomach turn to see my flaws? it sure does make mine. i can’t tell you 𝘪 𝘸𝘢𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 without lying that 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦, 𝘪 𝘸𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥. anyway, would you like some tea while we watch this show? this tragedy of errors on an endless timeline? anything else to make your experience better? am i condescending when i ask for concern? is it fun to battle my quiet anger with your quiet neglect? i’m sorry, maybe i assume too much. actually, i’m sure i do. it’s so humiliating to find meaning in everything even when i know better. oh, lovely – yet another insecurity.

_A monkey's wedding:_ our elders told us it was, each time it rained with the sun out. Pink skies, white clouds, golden tears and the good times of being young. Tree climbing to touch the sky as high, fruit picking, and stone skipping at turbid puddles, The smell of after rains, wet grounds, dew tear drops; all at the nights condescending condensation. Chasing rainbows on rumours of Peter pan's hidden treasures at the end. As a guileless manner supposed. Sunlight creeping through cracks of clouds, the remainder of light showers, reminisced in the mud. Sculptures we'd try our best to carve, playing house outside, under the upcoming sun, And trying our best at reciting parent's love. Tell me have you seen anything as beautiful, as the beauties after the rain?

After the rain
**All Hours of the Night That range of time is too random to be alone in the dark with yourself It's the loneliest time to think you over because like the sweetest stanza of the prettiest poem no one will ever read; we were pointless If I can recall you said so yourself My faith in the possibility had been exhausted My heart... I've since changed the lock with no bother about a spare key Sounds like some slick **** a poet assigned to you would say I found a reasoning you should try yourself... I trust nothing; I know me too well to believe I can talk myself into getting over you You must be proud of yourself the way you get all up in me right under my nose My defenses though... just in case My personality splits All Hours of the Night I captain this hook and refuse to pardon heartbreakers with three strikes at love I rob in the hood I'll take everyone for everything and give anything I can get away with to you Those are my instincts There's nowhere to go to get around yourself I work like a fool but when the struggle rises above my head I learn to swim again What's a synonym for dope boy Started as a runner Stick up kids out to tax when bust your gun is all you've got going for yourself Around and around and I hate that I love your badside All Hours of the Night By the rim of your ears and nape of your neck To the point of your ******* and past your belly's button Until my mouth found your flower's fruit and sipped its juice; Until your *** was trickling down my chin I wanna lick you senseless Imagine that... I thought you were ready but knew about the clause in your description denouncing heavy lifting And our love was like dead weight back when At least there's that... I'd have to eat the blame one way or the other I've seen you zing it from your index finger at everyone but yourself You ain't for this life A mountain lion would knaw off it's leg to escape capture... Is that a chill or a phantom sensation All Hours of the Night You were on some other **** yourself The way you captained this hook and made me wanna pardon heartbreakers with three strikes at love Those are your instincts; Never trick where you lay your head Keep your family close and your haters closer Improve yourself Progress Prevail And money before good **** Sounds like some slick **** a demon assigned to a poet would say in the condescending tone you've owned since the very first frame I found a reasoning you should try yourself... I trust nothing You must be proud of yourself**

****
**All Hours of the Night That range of time is too random to be alone in the dark with yourself It's the loneliest time to think you over because like the sweetest stanza of the prettiest poem no one will ever read; we were pointless If I can recall you said so yourself My faith in the possibility had been exhausted My heart... I've since changed the lock with no bother about a spare key Sounds like some slick **** a poet assigned to you would say I found a reasoning you should try yourself... I trust nothing; I know me too well to believe I can talk myself into getting over you You must be proud of yourself the way you get all up in me right under my nose My defenses though... just in case My personality splits All Hours of the Night I captain this hook and refuse to pardon heartbreakers with three strikes at love I rob in the hood I'll take everyone for everything and give anything I can get away with to you Those are my instincts There's nowhere to go to get around yourself I work like a fool but when the struggle rises above my head I learn to swim again What's a synonym for dope boy Started as a runner Stick up kids out to tax when bust your gun is all you've got going for yourself Around and around and I hate that I love your badside All Hours of the Night By the rim of your ears and nape of your neck To the point of your ******* and past your belly's button Until my mouth found your flower's fruit and sipped its juice; Until your *** was trickling down my chin I wanna lick you senseless Imagine that... I thought you were ready but knew about the clause in your description denouncing heavy lifting And our love was like dead weight back when At least there's that... I'd have to eat the blame one way or the other I've seen you zing it from your index finger at everyone but yourself You ain't for this life A mountain lion would knaw off it's leg to escape capture... Is that a chill or a phantom sensation All Hours of the Night You were on some other **** yourself The way you captained this hook and made me wanna pardon heartbreakers with three strikes at love Those are your instincts; Never trick where you lay your head Keep your family close and your haters closer Improve yourself Progress Prevail And money before good **** Sounds like some slick **** a demon assigned to a poet would say in the condescending tone you've owned since the very first frame I found a reasoning you should try yourself... I trust nothing You must be proud of yourself**

Condescending Technique
I am a puddle in the ocean Blended in a blue dream With wandering waves That capsize in captivity Condescending from freedom I am a puddle in the ocean Struggling to stay calm In this vicious storm As the wind is whirling Whipping my family around I am a puddle in the ocean Lost in space like a star Wishing I could shine Like the ferocious flame Of the sun's searing rays I am a puddle in the ocean Drowning in earths tears Shed from the sorrow Of all the pain in the world That never washed ashore I am a puddle in the ocean Fighting to stay afloat Holding on to a rope With a grip that's groping But safety is far from sight I am a puddle in the ocean Tired of being tortured By tricks of the truth Seeking to expose them With a splash of sunshine I am a puddle in the ocean Looking to ride a wave One that will carry me Far away from the storm To be soaked up by the sun

A Puddle in the Ocean
In my home city of Dhaka, there is an abundance of bananas. Their sickly sweet aroma hangs heavy in the air, mixing with the stench of human toil and chemical wastes to produce the true odor of despair. The lives of these bananas are relatively short. They start off in a poor farmer’s tree, dragged to market in a broken-down truck, and sold at a cut-throat price to the vendor. In a well-rehearsed play, vendor and consumer haggle over bruised bananas. The tired consumer brings the bananas home and hangs them in the kitchen where cockroaches stalk empty cupboards.                         The next day, we, the children, will carry the bananas in empty lunch boxes to school. Together, we will sit through vapid lectures, tailored to make the clock tick slower. Not once will the teacher pause to encourage us to achieve. During lunch, we will devour our bananas with unwashed hands. Despite our best efforts, we will be corralled into our parents’ lives and become the next generation of factory workers and office clerks.                 Sometimes though, a child manages to get a glimpse into the other world. I was fortunate enough to be one of these children. One afternoon, my father came into our tiny living room with a smile on his face and an object protruding from his shirt pocket. He told me that he had a special present for me. With a practiced flourish, he took out an orange from his worn shirt. My eyes widened with amazement.               To me, oranges were objects only celebrities and corrupt politicians could afford. They were luxury items, myths seen on television. Yet here I was, nothing extraordinary, holding a real orange in my palm. Slowly I peeled the orange, feeling my old impoverished self peel away simultaneously. As I tasted the first tangy slice, I heard the shackles of the banana chain fall. It was then that I truly felt that I had the power to become anything I wanted. That day, I was liberated from the vicious banana cycle.                From that day forward, I looked for positive events in my life, for signs of hope and change. One day, I saw my strict, condescending teacher discreetly hand an orange to a classmate whose family was unemployed. For the rest of the day, the child stood a little taller. For that day, he was no longer living in a destitute environment, but residing in the warmth of human nature.

The Butterfly’s Assumption Gown
Your eyes, bringing despise, continue to pierce me With their glowing incompetence And fluttering instances of jealousy. Your thoughts continue to reach me With their condescending demeanors That strike with utter prosperity. Your hatred continues to elude me With its striking usage And power that proves deadly. Once, just once, I know you can only wish To wrap your hands around my neck And squeeze until my breath has been abolish'd. Once, just once, I know you can only pretend To plunge the pencil into my chest And apply pressure until my beating comes to an end. Once, just once, I know you want to violate me And, once, just once, I may allow Your reaching desires to overpower me Once, just once, I will see your anger As you wrap your hands around me and decree, "I'm only putting us out of our misery."
