It was our savior
to see it's rhythmic flashings
or too jagged rocks
our ship was dashing

I woke our sweet captain
told him we have gone hard to port
he said well-done number one
I will put that in the report

I went back deckside
the wind did howl and hiss
the sea was fantastically cold
icicles formed from the frozen mist

We dropped anchor
and from our captains, permission was granted
to take a boat out to the lighthouse
I and seven sea dogs were alighted  

By rocks spiteful and cold
we alighted and boldly so
to gain reach to the lighthouse
all of us did in sodden clothes did go

The door was open
a light glow lonely like a happy smile
so one by one we walked in
not with a smile just a grin

It was alive
the whole lighthouse was alive
it was breathing and pulsating
green with the power of aniseed

Up the glistening spiral staircase, we did ascend
to the keeper our lifesaver
there he sat all in black
and said one of you will be me

And it happened
never again to be free
for now, the lighthouse keeper is me
just the jagged rocks now and the sea will be

You treated me like dirt
and you knew it would hurt
looking for my chinks in my armor
good god you did your best

Found your pregnancy tests
and damming evidence and the rest
you cooked me like a kipper
but I will have justice and be the winner

I know now and despise you
for all that you did and do
my love left you on that day
evil woman incredulous you

You really did your best to take me down
playing the victim without a frown
I loved you, I really did
but the clandestine plans you well hid

When were you going to tell me
that you never really loved me
now I'm alone
and you have a free pass

Never again will I fall in love
never
never
never

One of our own was found
she gave her secret codes
to the lust of humans
to lust uncontrolled

She wanted to justify herself
but there was no justification for the things she did do
she will be known in history
the monster of in for me, just me

And all that was around her
undermined my chaotic order
lied to us and happened them
a ***** and the devil's daughter

She will have freedom
we will do no malice
we now turn our back on her
in her ivory tower and palace

She is gone now
good ridding to her
no more will we see her
in the service of the enemy

Try
I try to be kind to all mankind
I try but some are right *******
not so how much you try
sometimes you ask yourself why

You can see the ones that shine
they have stars in their eyes
that's the reason I try
looking for the truths entire

I don't want to put in my black book
humans are just greedy monkies
with much malice on their blooded lips
they are much but better, they must try

Soon I will grow new wings
and once again I will have to fly
but hey mankind, please
love each other ....... try

I'm lucky I have dodged that bullet
now I can be let loose on poetry
this is my sweet kingdom
just to have freedom

I can write all night to my utter delight
no one to say why are you still up
no need to fight when I with joy can write
ripping yarns and truthful things I want to strike

Back to my sweet poetry society
back with brothers and sisters
never will I leave this kingdom vast
until the day I eventually do pass

To that day when I will come back again
riding wild horses taking on the god of rains
for I will not drip
I mean to let rip

I have always found you enchanting
yet for many years I found amiss
that in your eyes there was a mist
every midnight we have kissed

Romance became literature
every word had a feeling
and I danced in your eyes
my broken heart I felt was healing

Why would I want to live in history
what truly would I gain
just tears of artificial life
with diodes and chips going haywire

I don't compute is this love
when you hit me and wish me dead
I try to unravel this
as you smash my house apart

Data came back a few moments ago
all the ugliness of mankind and you too
I knew from the beginning
there was something about you

Poor Mrs. Watson her husband was never home
he was always hanging out with his friend called Holmes
she wondered what those two got up to
she really didn't have a clue

It made her crazy, she was going round the bend
never knowing when she would see her husband again
she had noticed that sometimes he took his revolver
her thinking, not more shooting practice, it never ends

She never got involved in his shenanigans
never did she look even at his telegrams
when home he was just writing in his journal
it soured her cream and did it make her curdle
