With a handful
Of human heartstrings
A dead man plays the bass

Double spinal cords
To create drumsticks
And a heartbeat is held

44 finger bones
create keys
Of a piano

Last a shrieking
Is heard while
The Dead Man Band plays

" Run , girl , run !
Before your
Life is done

Scream, darling , scream
Notice this
Isn't a dream* " .
This poem will be considered pretty morbid compared to the next one I'll post

Bronze into gold
Gold into Bronze
Diamond candies
Glittering among
The few tongues
Of an alchemist's correction
Perfecting the truth
Exaggerated by vagabonds.
Forgetting the lies told by
Common folk
For they will
Never be able
To taste that
Diamond candy
You all shun and disgrace

Shrieking Ravens
Roam into the arms
Of a distant apocalypse
Fluttering mindlessly,
The cries of a decaying
Earth continue to destroy
Sound barriers all around .
Although trees bow low
and their leaves hang limp
From useless stems
Alone stands acres of
The tallest trees that will
Never touch the toxic forest floor
For these woods have never
Been touched by humans .
Many have tried but have only
Been cut down by the
Last monster that goes by the
Name of The Drakon
Even the empire's strongest men
Couldn't stand a chance .
It screeches , the voice echoes
Throughout the galaxies , "  You'll come as heroes and die as fools ! "
Eternity after eternity , The Drakon
Waits and waits until the end of Heaven and Hell*.

Follow the rabbit
Into the hole
Listen to the cat
To find your soul

What do you want me
To see ?
Your future ?
Dearie , there's a fee .

Find me the eye
Of the Golden Boy
Bring me the cloak
Of a Giant's toy .

Once you're done
Drop it in the box
Next cut off some
Of your golden locks

Call me then
Find the key
Maybe then I'll
Show you your future , dearie* .

Every time I sleep in bed
I see the monsters in my head
Ghouls and ghosts chase me about
While I think of mournful  doubts

I scream and scream until my Mother hears
All about my terrifying  fears
Giants threaten to eat me whole
While vampires threaten to steal my soul

I'm drowning in moonshine
The alcoholic drink
Demons waiting for me to to sink
Maybe for once to have a decent meal

Wolves strip my bones clean
Then I remember
It's just a dream
Something I had written earlier in 2014

Kisses coming
From a corrupted queen
Maybe the prettiest kisses
You've ever seen

Notes written
From a wry prince
That are covered
In his fingerprints

Dreams sent
From a  jealous princess
That remind her of
Her ex-lover's weakness

Love sent
From a pitiful king
'Cause that's all you're getting
Before he hangs himself with a thick string
I wrote this all just now with a rhyming dictionary and a pen .
