Quotes about cursing, page 4
Yellow, bright and brash wherever I see
Yellow, bright and brash wherever I see
innocent and yet living free
with the spring they are rising,
as their seeds are spreading
as in blasphemy to every cursing industry.

On Napoleon's Death
Cold hears thy soul the praise or cursing of posterity.
Quit of the human race, thou man of destiny!
They only could o'erthrow, who thee did elevate--
Forever thus remains thy greatness great!

The Same Mouth
A fountain of salt water,
Resist the devil and she will flee from you;
The ultimate result,
Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing;
But how great a forest is,
A little fire kindles it all!

Four Epigrams in April
When a man has a lot of money
True friends are a rarity.
When a child hears profanity
He'll be cursing you surely!
Vulgar words destroy poetry
For they express no beauty.
Friendship is a masterpiece of art
A diligent work of the heart.

The good have no place
The one who seems good
Gets credit more than
The one really good.
The one really good
Is left well behind
The one who is bad
In getting credit.
This is the world where
Merits have no place.
The good find pleasure
In cursing themselves.

I stalked the
I stalked the
Love of Richard
And relentless
My own faded
Childhood together
An illness of poems
Of television and
Anyone’s symptom
Encroaching in on
The cursing man
Of the darken street
Where he hope
To meet his new lover of
Dark ways.

Late wisdom
With time in progress,
Relationships fade,
Friendships fade
And courtships follow suit.
Goodwill established
Will die a slow death.
All would turn to you
As ungrateful dogs.
Who has met his death
Without cursing himself
For the good he did to others?

Thunder stroke
Outside the office
suddenly a thunderbolt smashed down blue-white,
splitting a tree with bird nests,
blue-white fiery tongues hissed and danced
when it perfectly cleft it from the top
in into the ground, right up to the roots
with weavers that were chattering and cursing.

Of Course I Like You
Don't be foolish.
Of course I like you.
Do you think I'd waste my time,
Arguing and cursing someone else?
Someone I did not know?
Who else but 'you',
Can get on my nerves the way you do?
Think about it!
Now...
Are you going to get back into the car?
Or are you going to walk?

Broadway
I shall never forget you, Broadway
Your golden and calling lights.
I’ll remember you long,
Tall-walled river of rush and play.
Hearts that know you hate you
And lips that have given you laughter
Have gone to their ashes of life and its roses,
Cursing the dreams that were lost
In the dust of your harsh and trampled stones.
