eyes

eyes are following me everywhere i tread

eyes,eyes,eyes filling me with dread

they are chasing me to everywhere i go

following to places only i know

green mean eyes blue prying eyes

brown eyes of the darkest hue

they are hiding in the shaddows giving me no clue when they might appear

eyes,eyes,eyes how they sear into my soul

eyes behind cameras and cctv controls

eyes paranoid paranoia alienpoet poetry poem hooks

I feel the distance

The quiet room becomes loneliness

Walls, distance between me and you

But the real distance between us is in our hearts and minds

Lines drawn, boundaries made

You say numbness is your friend and you can’t trust.

Trust in our friendship or all is dust

Rusting tears and drawn out fears

I have to come to about your well being

But your only seeing lies right now

The madman

The mad man laughs out loud

he has no pride left

the silience between him and her will never break

it collides with everything he stands for.

Life is door shut

walls closing in

room spinning

we have no time for losers when we are winning

no time for the broken, when we build our houses tall

and our garden walls taller still

to stop waifs and strays from g...

witchcraft

sex, skulls and voodoo dolls
stockings and suspenders and mad benders
I fell into her arms.
her hips moving like a snake
trapped my wandering an eye
too quick to avoid like an earthquake
making your heart shake and body quiver
deliver me the darkness
I deserve.
as my head swerves around you and your lips
and your whole body
did you see me in your crystal ball
walking tal...

poetic Justice

poetic justice
if poets did justice and the law

loansharks would get baliffs knocking on their door
animal abusers would have to go to the vets instead of the doctors
muggers would be beaten up by old grannies
scientists who test animals with cosmetics would find themselves dolled up every morning
by cosmetics that give them a rash
and bankers who get big bonuses would have to ...

Just people

Words fail me
Sentences derail me
Thoughts ought to set me free
But they drag me down with new responsibilities
Catch 22s have got me in a fix
Why do people have to be such dicks
Adulthood a myth
Just children in suits and ties
Surrounding themselves with lies
And they like to blame each other
Oh brother!
Who’s gonna get the job done
New world order
Same rules
Made f...

hiroshima

From Enola Gay the mother of horror comes the little boy of terror
a bomb which falls from the sky
600 metres above ground it explodes as a fierce fireball
280 metres in diameter 1 second after the explosion it slams into a population of 350000 civilians
at the hypocentre its 3000 to 4000 degrees celsius
people are incenerated
raditon rays burst out and ashes and black rain fall fro...

my superstitions are eating me whole

A  Black cat is just deciding whether to cross my path

A fairy just sprayed me with fairy dust just for a laugh

Stupid cupid just shot me in the bum and I have fallen in love with a tree!

And a dog just peed on me and the tree as well.

 

I went to my friend’s house and their kids put my new shoes on the table

I touched wood to break the curse but I wasn’t able

I thou...

some men treat women like

Some men are like animals

When it comes to love.

Depraved they crave women

Eating them up like cannibals.

Some men are hopeless romantics

they see love as an escape from monotony

They want a family and wait for the right woman to arrive.

Some men are cowards they hide from love

Because they can’t stand rejection.

They have no strategy

I fall into that cat...

The watcher

The watcher

He watches all the comings and goings in the park

Always standing always leering

No one ever speaks to him

He is silient as stone

He watches for weeks and years

A marble heart and a marble soul

No tears form on his cheeks he captures only one expression

He watches with eyes that never move or close

Birds are his friends they perch on his shoulders

romantic distance

Romantic distance

I rip out my heart for you to have and to hold

Does it feel cold?

This pound of flesh it’s all I have.

 I have already given you my soul

Which hangs in the corner of your bedroom

This gloom won’t shift, this love would have been a gift

But for the romantic distance between us

We may talk dirty in our minds

But the shutters the blinds are dow...

romantic distance love dan hooks

love is out to get me

Their lips drip with salvia
The hounds of love are out to get me
But I am a survivor
But how can I survive
When I know I am going to get caught by the bees of love
with your honey on my lips
but I just can’t let your honey go to waste
it drives me wild just for a taste
I am like ravenous beast
And on you I would feast
For hours and hours I would rise and expand on you like yeast
I have...

who betrayed rhyming poetry to its literary death?

who betrayed rhyming poetry to its literary death?
who poisoned it and made it take its final breath
who cut it up into words of just prose
poets did,
poets did i suppose
with thier quirky non rhyming, non flowing literate shite
they put out the light of rhyming poetry from the new books on the shelves
because they wanted to make themselves look good
with their  eloquent poems that take an english degree ...
