Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Work

The sycophant danceI watched the sycophants bow low, adoring the new CEO.These slavish followers of those with status large as their egos,do not intend to disagree with those with great authority.These toadies are just puppets born, and parasites, and hangers-on.You see them everywhere you go. The 'yes men' who just can't say... More..

RetirementCold days, with snow sparkles on the ground. Soft as a bird's white feathers.Oak trees, leafless, barren and at rest. Dreaming of Springtime after Winter's rest.Retirement was a necessary thing. So why do no birds sing?There was a time it seems, that February brought me many dreamsof what I'd do when Summer warmed m... More..

AbusedShe waits with dread behind the kitchen door, shaking and scared and praying hard once more.Will he come home again in ugly mood? She hopes and prays he will enjoy his food.If he does not, he'll start another row. Calling her names like 'lazy stupid cow'Then, if she tries to pacify his rage, and cook him something else ...

Depression DiaryDecember's dark loneliness, rain, anguish, and pain.January's chill, ice in my veins, I'll never feel warm again.February's blues, despondency, when will this feeling let go of me?March's winds screech, soul battery, please set me free.April's bright promise, fails to excite, despair the night.May's merry morn...
