"pettish" poems
My dearest Frank, I wish you joy Of Mary's safety with a Boy, Whose birth has given little pain Compared with that of Mary Jane — May he a growing Blessing prove, And well deserve his Parents' Love! — Endow'd with Art's and Nature's Good, Thy Name possessing with thy Blood, In him, in all his ways, may we Another Francis WIlliam see! — Thy infant days may he inherit, They warmth, nay insolence of spirit; — We would not with one foult dispense To weaken the resemblance. May he revive thy Nursery sin, Peeping as daringly within, His curley Locks but just descried, With 'Bet, my be not come to bide.' — Fearless of danger, braving pain, And threaten'd very oft in vain, Still may one Terror daunt his Soul, One needful engine of Controul Be found in this sublime array, A neigbouring Donkey's aweful Bray. So may his equal faults as Child, Produce Maturity as mild! His saucy words and fiery ways In early Childhood's pettish days, In Manhood, shew his Father's mind Like him, considerate and Kind; All Gentleness to those around, And anger only not to wound. Then like his Father too, he must, To his own former struggles just, Feel his Deserts with honest Glow, And all his self-improvement know. A native fault may thus give birth To the best blessing, conscious Worth. As for ourselves we're very well; As unaffected prose will tell. Cassandra's pen will paint our state, The many comforts that await Our Chawton home, how much we find Already in it, to our mind; And how convinced, that when complete It will all other Houses beat The ever have been made or mended, With rooms concise, or rooms distended. You'll find us very snug next year, Perhaps with Charles and ***** near, For now it often does delight us To fancy them just over-right us.

My Dearest Frank, I Wish You Joy

My dear, I've lost everything I hold near; you've turned my heart into a constant pit of fear where I flinch at the sight of possible pain and lose sight of the flame I ever saw in us. It's such a shame that I have to put up such a fuss because I never really did much to stop what was bothering me the most, just let it drift away like a coast; might as well take a toast to all the few good times we had and be glad that you could've been the biggest part of my life. I really don’t want to do this, but you've turned my infatuated bliss into something that could be dismissed; I was ready to put all my cards on the table, expose my all like a fable, but everything got blown away when you decided to stop giving me the time of day and shut down everything I had to say. *You're a **** You make me go berserk even when you give me just the smallest smirk. I cant take this. You never have anything nice to say; think that makes me want to stay? I'm over this whole act. Have you ever learned manners? No? Do you expect me to adapt to this pettish play where 'men' are mean to the ones they like? That doesn’t even make sense. Why would you act in anger or give any thought of danger to someone you want to give your heart to? Does that somehow make sense to you? But, when I look into your eyes I can see past all these tries, that I truly despise, and I see the real you. The one that wants to hold my hand; someone who wants to understand everything I demand and commit to who I really am. Playing this tug-of-war will be the end of me. But, the game continues because of this stupid life I wished for. I should just shut the door since this has just become a chore I have to bear because it only seems fair since your eyes tell me more than the rest of you. I think we're through unless you change your ways that have somehow became apart of you. Sincerely, Your almost Love

Just a letter.

I had to let go of your memories As I did with San Fransisco With its innocent corners and places The quaint stores and my shadow "Does it snow in San Fransisco?" My little nephew asked "Not always, but it did long ago" And my eyes filled with remnants of the past It hasn't gotten easier, years have gone by I still remember the golden gate The sunsets and the pleasant sky I need you still and in vain I wait For you to stop by And steady my pettish state

I left my heart in San Francisco
Two girls, With curls, In ALL their hair, I bet only them know where. One has a fetish, The other one is pettish. They are perfect, Only for each other, All though they might **** each others mothers, And or Eesha's brothers, They are quite the lovers.

Eesha & Thalia.
Greate is thy Sin, since Sin is never Small:      And Monstrous Moles of Sin Call home thy Soule. About their Mountainous Molehills they do Crawle.      Play thou (and win) a Game of Whacke-a-Mole.      Unto the Moles be Deadly as an asp.        Beware, take Care, nor Swat the pettish wasp. The Harebrain'd Sinners Sins to him are toyes;      Theyre Entertainments, Gambols, Games with Dice. The Madbrain'd Sinners Sins to him are joyes      Untill he's made to paye in full their price.      The Crackbrain'd Sin-addicted Scarab bug      That liveth but for Sin to Hell is Drug.

Upon the Necessity of Whacking Moles to Death.
My soul… Listen to the pettish sound of the sky He will cry soon by rumbling, prepare your goblet The sky falls in love with the sea and cry without stop in order to touch her The sea fills herself in his love My soul… you missed that his ocean-like eyes? Which you can't touch… if i caress pearls will pour  from his hair Which you never have could felt… Cry o soul with the sky  behalf of holy love without stop flows poems from my lips clock inside my heart stopped my knees tremble by craving I am burning in flames i get cold that have been trapped in ice-heart listen that voice which you never could heard a night will come open unlike bright That night is mine… my left side is silent as much as death this night at the same time the most severe war a soul passed by here with one hand goblet at the same time by digging passed By hurting… Oh my little child soul!! Listen the silent of night Nobody hears its screaming Night loves morning by trying to endure this pain this soul wanders in verses from word to word that soul sews scars that have been ripped from his heart line by line the pocket of a coat hid his combative spirit i'm drinking behalf of that soul on behalf of every wounded soul…
