As a kid when playing football and rugby,
From the moment of kick-off my opponents,
Dearly loved to get in an early tackle,
Even when it was late.
To try to injure or hamstring.
To cause one to crash and burn.
To remove one early from the game.
People fuelled by anger,
And filled with petty jealousies.
Then when I grew up I found,
Life was like that.
For some people enjoy hurting or try to hurt others.
They would love to see the entire world burn and everyone in it.
They would light a stick of dynamite at both ends to ensure it goes off.
Life's idiots.
And literally just over a year ago when first I joined here,
And to this day,
I am getting day after day, time after time, poem after poem,
Plagued and harassed by one cowardly member leaving,
His vile and jealous comments.
Even on the children's poems I write.
And I found out I'm not the only one.
There are many more,
Constantly being harassed by this poetry idiot.
One I know has even left here due to his haranguing.
I know what he looks like.
I know his name.
His real name.
And his age.
And at his late age he really should know better.
If I ever met him face to face.
On moral grounds.
I'll break his bloody jealous legs.
Now I'll start writing some poetry.
And calm down.
Well said Shaun! We all know who this is, notwithstanding his many guises. I'm now wondering if mummy didn't provide him with enough attention when he was a wee nipper...ah diddums! Just pretend he doesn't exist...ignore him..remove every cowardly comment he ever makes from your page and keep writing your wonderful poems. That pernicious worm really isn't worth it. Anyway, it's a thump the old fool in the jaw inspired five from me!
Very interesting way of expressing your disgust at the behavior of another person, but well-written and well-spoken! Thanks.
part 1 Unfortunately, the world of poetry is a beautiful and spiritual world, in which there is no place for the bad, stingy and aggressive. In poetry it will extinguish the flames and heal the wounds instead of destroying life or hurting others,
part 2 it seems that the pain has struck your pure heart, so you wrote a poetry to express what is inside. but never mind do not correct the mistake by mistake, we all like Shaun as an intellectual and a poet, this well penned poem deserves 5 stars..thanks for sharing, all the best.

People fuelled by anger, And filled with petty jealousies.
