"sland" poems
Gnomadic a wandering, meandering gnome
Misgnomer a female gnome
Metrognome uses the London Underground
Gnominate lazy gnome, idle
Gnomad a sane gnome
Gnoman'sland where male gnomes reside
Gnome de guerre see agnominous
Agnominous a gnome with nous
Gnome de plume not a real gnome, might be a plum!
Gnome de plump An overweight gnome
Gnome more enough already!

In the old age black was not counted fair,
Or if it were, it bore not beauty’s name;
But now is black beauty’s successive heir,
And beauty slandered with a ******* shame.
For since each hand hath put on nature’s power,
Fairing the foul with art’s false borrowed face,
Sweet beauty hath no name no holy bower,
But is profaned, if not lives in disgrace.
Therefore my mistress’ eyes are raven black,
Her eyes so suited, and they mourners seem,
At such who, not born fair no beauty lack,
Sland’ring creation with a false esteem.
Yet so they mourn, becoming of their woe,
That every tongue says beauty should look so.

Are these slander & slurs,
I seem to be hear-
ing with these two ears?
How, men, may you hold valid opinions
of me as a pee-r -
when our acquaintance
has never been near-
er than a distant planet from here? -
Weird, -
you seem so sure of your facts.
However, it seems awfully whack -
as you've never crossed the back-
of my mind! -
Suggestion, sir: --
if I may concur; -
Stop hasting over others lives!
If you've already blown through
seven wives.. - don't you think -
just possibly -
that - YOU - might
be the issue?
Open your eyes!
Take control of your live!
& I'll continue down my own
the way I always have.
Trust me, friend.
Once you can see,
you may even thank me.
Surely- so much more, you can be!

a innnnnnn t th e very beginning of
every advanced society
one finds something the Sunday Funnies used to
be the cutting edge;
The Colossus of Rhodes /roʊdz/ (Ancient Greek: ὁ Κολοσσὸς Ῥόδιος,
transliteration. ** Kolossòs Rhódios) was a statue of the Greek sun-god Helios, designed in part by the world renown genius
engineer Archemides , gigantic L e B ron man straddling to be erected as a m sentinel to guard over in the to look o city of
Rhodes, on the Greek i sland of the same name, by Chares
of Lindos in 280 BC. One of the Inana bronze Seven Wonders of the
nnnnnnnnnnn / Ancient World, / originally of the seven veils designed to a mechanical man;
it was constructed to celebrate Rhodes' victory over Cyprus
& Antigonus I Monophthalmus, whose son then unsuccessfully
n attacke d Rhodes in 305 BC.
that looks like a comic;
they end
book; pictographs give graphic novels are read more closely
than actual news
;newspapers; all lie in social decline
way to hieroglyphs (mythic monuments told tales; & "Mother of the Sun, Theia
of many names, for your sake men honor gold as more powerful than anything else; and through the value you best ow on them, o queen, ships contending on the sea
and yoked teams of horses in swift-whirling contests become marvels."
soon we'll all know Chinese. the Colossus stood 100 feet high— approximate
height of the modern Statue of Liberty
from feet to crown; which was originally designed as a massive naked woman representing Liberty;

I hunger for fame
As most do
I want to share my voice
And make the world a better place
But how can I share a genuine thought
If fame is born of
Clickbait and emotional charge
"debates" used to sland e r
ha tef ul words thrown a ro u nd to
g rab people's ey es and h e a r t s
as gu lli ble as they a re
used to t e a r a p a r t
a n d t a k e the r u b b l e
to bui ld a name
and a legacy

I cried myself to sleep last night
Feeling a little empty inside
All of my tears have dried
For a reason I couldn't deny
What's the reason of my existence ?
Why I am breathing in this instance ?
Where could I find my alliance ?
Or just accept the fact that I'm the island
