Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Ex Friend

In high school, we two started out

As best friends, but quite soon I found

We were growing apart, no doubt,

As more to "in' crowd I be bound.

And when accepted in that clique,

I knew that right away I need

Be selective of friends I'd picked,

When my old best friend did indeed

Tell me right to my face that I

Was turning into a mean snob.

Of course I gave a mean reply,

But down deep felt guilty a gob.

So horrible some truth can be.

Such truth my ex friend dared tell me.

 Weighing Thin

When I was a kid I was fat,

And ate lots of junk food, no doubt.

I got kidded a lot 'bout that.

What goes wrong in can come right out,

Became my guide on what I ate.

Regurgitation, answer to

My being able to lose weight.

Yes, an eating disorder, true.

But I keep a picture of me

Close, ever a reminder of

The kidded fat kid I did be.

Of course the junk food, I still love.

Once a fat body I was in.

Now I'm obsessed with staying thin.

 Insecurity Accusation

When I fired the pool boy, the wife

Said my reason for firing him,

His youth and good looks caused me strife,

So acting on insecure whim,

I fired him, feeling threatened by

His attention to the wife, and

I could not compete with this guy,

And simply could not understand

That such an unwarranted display

Of childish insecurity,

Shown in passive/aggressive way,

Was make the wife just feel guilty.

The wife must think me quite a fool,

'Specially since we have no pool.

 Faith in My Creator

I was born a child of God for

Living my life in a good way,

So when I die, forevermore

I'll be in Heaven, so I pray

That each day I do live God's will,

For others be usefully good,

God's purpose for me to fulfill,

Praying for wisdom how I should

Fight against evil all around.

I am created to fight sin,

And with God's help I'm ever bound

To fight for good and right and win.

My Creator gave life to me.

Faithful to God I seek to be.

 Just a Bad Dream

Thank goodness I am now awake.

I was having such a bad dream.

I dreamed that a nap I did take,

So confidant that it did seem

That I was sure to win a race,

My opponent being so slow,

Who no way could keep up my pace.

So very sure I'd win, and so

I thought my taking a nap would

Show what good sport this rabbit be.

In any race I was too good,

There was no one who could beat me!

The race, just an awful nightmare.

How could a tortoise beat a hare?

 Consequence

You were my first and only love.

I let you have your way with me,

As you whispered sweet nothings of

What loving couple we did be.

But afterwards you acted strange.

Big cry baby I was said you,

But all my bawling would not change

That you and me were done and through.

Then talked about by kids at school,

That you and I just had some fun.

Now I was acting like a fool,

Making too much of what we'd done.

Hope lots of gnawing guilt you're bound

When this note with my body's found.

 Painful Removal

I really thought she liked me best.

Oft used me to point something out.

Made me feel special from the rest,

So glad to be with her, no doubt.

But then today, an awful thing,

Sudden mental breakdown she had.

And on me she began chewing,

With my outcome being quite bad.

I was so stunned, I must confess,

As pieces of me disappeared.

Now left of me, just bloody mess.

My being gone just felt so weird.

She went berserk, I understand,

But caused me to get out of hand.

 Simple Solution

How to heal the world is the ask?

Only who made this world can do.

So cannot be a human task,

Humans have proved unworthy, true.

Only God, if God sees the worth

Can heal the world as need be done.

Since God chose to create the Earth,

Its true healing, God's only one.

Why ever God made humans is

Surely a failure by God's will.

Correcting such mistake, God's biz,

Up to only God to fulfill.

The only sure world cure to find,

Eliminate all humankind.

 Queen Jewels

Queen Jewels upon my household throne,

Where I have reigned since schnauzer pup.

The years have passed and I have grown

Into a giant fur ball, yup!

All in my household serve their Queen

With all the best of loving care.

I'm quite used to pampered routine

Given to me in full fanfare.

A fun and busy life I lead,

Never a dull moment, no doubt.

I am a happy dog indeed,

Decreed when my tongue's hanging out.

Queen Jewels, my human subjects be

So loyal and devoted to me.

 Tragic End

In the old abandoned house, we

Would stay together, all agreed.

But then just minutes later, she

Went her own way, show off indeed.

Shortly after, her screams we heard.

We all moved slowly toward that sound,

All wondering what had occurred.

And then that answer, we all found.

The floor had broken, she fell through

To the cellar, where she now lay.

The fall had killed her, we all knew.

It had turned into a sad day.

Yes, old abandoned houses scare.

Real weakened floorboards to beware.

 Rivalry for Iris' Affections

Words, "You love her, but she does not"

"Love you," Severus did reply

To Successus, rival, both sought

Be Iris, the barmaid's main guy.

On a Pompeii building wall, they

Wrote graffiti back and forth to

Show Iris, in public display,

Who be the better of the two.

Reply of Severus was last

Written by the rivals before

Whole city of Pompeii was cast

'Neath lava from volcano core.

Which of the two Iris preferred?

Buried when eruption occurred.

 School Bullying

The high school boys bathroom oft is

A place of lower learning sure,

Where bullies come to do their biz,

That those bullied have to endure.

The most vulnerable bullied be

The nerd with his pants caught down who

Is the target of some bully

Seeking some mean mischief to do.

Today, the messy bully plan,

Catch mid number two the poor nerd,

And toss at him a full trash can,

Whence lots of spillage then occurred.

Of course who gets to clean up all?

I'm the janitor gets the call.
