"hilariously" poems
And when you give Give like the widow would Quietly and thoughtfully Wholeheartedly and consciously Like you know the value of costly The value of giving til you laughingly Really hurt in your fund for a holiday. And when you give Keep your other hand wondering If it's sufficiently Not knowing if it was slight of handedly Or open handedly So you're tempted into giving more Than you intended previously. And when you give Give hilariously Generously Be gutsy til angels agree On the degree To which you plunge The depths of your karki jeans And if in doubt Just focus on the tree And the costly sacrifice He willingly made For you and me. Give like the widow would - Like it's just between you and God And then you'll be free.

And when you give (remix)
Wouldn't it be weird if JFK was reincarnated as Monica Lewinski? Buddha probably ate better butter than Ghandi. If we keep fighting the divine fellows we pray to will be too afraid to return. This isn't ******* Highlander. Christ, what a hilariously insane movie. They probably show that to people who drink caviar & say things like "pip pip!" Either way, we're all related. Otherwise than that, let's all be LOVE. Except for people who commit genocide. May they be reincarnated as Hitler's final excretion as he killed himself; including ******

My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who is always a gentleman He opens doors, pulls out chairs And is polite to my parents And yet when he wants He can be so hilariously fun He's not afraid to wrestle Or play games, even have a nerd fight But when the day is done We can sit and talk for hours He listens to every word And says more than "okay" He will smile and act intelligent Helping with my problems But he's not too serious To put up with my insanity My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who is always there for me I will never feel shy or scared In his protective hold He will back me up Even if I'm wrong And when we sit together He will wrap his arms around me And sit tight and perfect And he is always there for me When is about emotions too He will be my steady rock To comfort if I cry He always try's to make it better No matter what is wrong My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who is thinking of me He pulls special surprises With flowers and romance He never forgets a special day But he's not the kind of guy Who is crazy about anniversaries He might give a gift once a year To keep it real special He plans dates And makes special days Just for the two of us And while he keeps them Perfectly romantic he lets them Have fun too. My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who compliments me now and then Even if he doesn't mean it Just to make me feel nice But he isn't all worried about beauty He notices me for me And isn't afraid to joke around And say what's on his mind My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who likes the things I like The kind of guy who Shares my dreams And relishes in the insanity He wants to make the impossible come true Without forgetting about now He will think about the Future While we banter with each other My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who doesn't see me as just his girl He is protective and strong Yet easy going too He isn't afraid to get ***** To roll around in the mud He is always up for a game Of road hockey or paintball He will play video games And sports Without going easy He will keep things fun And won't cry about losing to a girl. My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who gets along with friends Who is always charming to new people And who my friends like back The kind of guy who Gets along with a group Yet doesn't mind to be alone My perfect guy Is the kind of boy Who I write this incredibly long poem about He is the kind of guy who is perfect in my eyes He is the kind of guy who likely doesn't exist

To some she is a shining light A flash of hope amongst the dark An optimistic helping hand To pull you from the dark And cheer your sorrow To some she is a black hole Pulling the world down with sadness Reliving the past that broke her And stabbing others with the shards To some she is simple words plastered on a white canvas painting a picture. never more but never less To most she is unnoticeable A tiny footnote scribbled in the corner of a forgotten notebook A wall flower whose thorns push away all but those with the key to her locked heart. When you ask me what she is The answer is impossible Because I don't know But I can tell you what she's not She is not a beautiful face, to stop you in a crowd She is not a chatting girl to talk you into a date She is not a innocent flower Welcoming with open arms She is not a genius to create the next invention She is not a musician, an author, a designer, a star, a doctor, or a hero She is not a loving companion for you to hold, and remember your every need She is not a great friend, always there in a flash. She is not a friendly person, starting up the conversation She is not a good cook, making meals that are edible She is not an unscarred girl, unscathed by the past She is not a beautiful figure That draws your eyes She is not hilariously funny Ready for stand up comedy She is not someone to remember though she will remember you However she is not fazed by judges Changing ways to suit them She is not perfect She is not stopped by her imperfections, only pressed farther to become something more. And though I can not say who she is or what she will be. Here's what I can say To me she will always be the girl staring back in the mirror.

As I lay beside my darling On an early Sunday morn, I could feel her rounded softness Sleeping under blankets warm. My mind caroused the memories And loitered on it's way And found itself deliciously, Immersed in golden play. I remembered something special In the way my little boy would look As his eyes rose up in wonderment When I read his favorite book. And the joy involved in feeding A hungry little mouth When the porridge spooned all over From the eyebrows heading south. A tantalizing moment On the beach down by the sea, In the warm December sunshine With my happy family. We were running in the black sand Drawing circles with a stick As the surging waves approached them Laughing little boys were quick. Laughing, happy moments And some sad ones like the day When dear old Meg, our Labrador, Got sick and passed away. Young Boaz in his sadness Climbed the big tree to it's crown And it took a lot of pleading To persuade him to come down. And young Solly played the taniwha At the Cornwall Park school play And a better taniwha has yet To grace the stage today. A natural in his element This young comedian So hilariously funny As he drew the audience in. The tender, loving moments As we both strolled arm in arm Through the verdant Ferntree Gully With it's sunlit grace and charm. And the towering eucalyptus, Hanging wood smoke in the air And the whiplash resonation Of the lyrebird hidden there. Of Buttercup's wild parties When fancy dress was king, When everyone would whoop it up And laugh and dance and sing. When mum's and dad's and little kids All joined the happy throng With spud mashing as a ceremony And a night of fun and song. Of sitting in the garden With your feet up and a book And a cold beer at your elbow And a barbecue to cook. With the easy feel of family As they go about their day And the joyous sound of summer When two noisy tui's play. Memories of yesterday Moments in the life Of ecstasy and agony And wonderment and plight. And the ordinary ness of everything And the magic everywhere, Like the auburn in the sunlight As it strikes my darling's hair. Marshalg Mangere Bridge 10 October 2009

I could cry at any moment tears pouring deep and wide from the everlasting well of heart and soul buried in the dark depths of my uneasy chest I could smile at any instance Joy spreading like butter smoothly and easily from one side to another as I remember the light rays of happiness who's shadows once graced my face I could yell in a heartbeat at the Fierce Ferocity gaining momentum from the bottom of my toes obtaining speed as it overcomes my earthly being   I could laugh at the corny attempts of your mistaken humor or at the twisted path you push yourself to follow —hilariously distraught with comic ambition I could dance in the silver sprays of moonlit grace ignoring all but the life within myself listening to the music of the rhythmic unknown unsure of what song to play next   I could hide— from fate, from love, from lust, from fear Refusing to be powerless Refusing to be broken in a world made whole by imperfections   I could run my body to the ground the world to oblivion Fueled by Passion or none at all   but I don't I just sit here waiting.

Waiting
Is he being serious? I can't tell Am I being serious? I'm not sure feeling on the brink of something am I dying? is this what it's like to die? I had a lot of good words to say they were going to come out like a sickly ball of ectoplasm like a desperate clawing scream up from the floor but now I don't know what they were everything I consume is somehow related to who I am as a person I've spent a lifetime modeling myself after words, images, phrases, sounds they are like little helpers but they are not me "don't be afraid to care" "what did you see while you were there?" I am bursting with joy I want to laugh, dance, be free to love my love is all ************ right now it's all I know the moon & sky so beautiful this strange winter deadly sunsets and snow crystalline space and stars "how does it feeeeel?" he asks & rolls over drunk, uncaring I slipped her something mid-conversation what was it?: a hint, a look, an eye? I don't even know really Was I being myself or not? "the joke is come upon me" at last, the irony is concrete hilariously, beautifully tragic & yet not at all; more like a lighthearted pun "we all shine on, like the moon & the stars & the sun" why & how did it become so difficult? this is the struggle of every man this is not my father's insanity, nor his father's

Zenia Argos is tired. Tired to her ventricles, but still curious. She might possibly have told the right person on a certain type of night in the right kind of bar that she defined herself by her curiosity. Now she felt that her strange mind and her odd ways probably overwhelmed her and had thereby come to define her. ~^~ Zenia not only felt undefined, she felt amorphous. Like a ghost in a black silk raincoat and black patent leather stiletto  heels, she stalked through airports and the gutters of various cities. She forgot to ask herself meaningful questions. She forgot to ask herself any questions at all. ~^~ One day in some unbelievably high-numbered floor of a high-rise hotel in a city whose name she had forgotten she woke up in a luxurious enough bed with a body on the other side of it, face turned away from her. Her brain tossed up only this inane phrase, which repelled and fascinated her at the same time. "Age has it's privileges" First thought after that was a silly image of an actual ledge, outside of a high rise building such as the one she found herself in at the moment. With a cartoon cat and a cartoon Zenia fighting to stay on the edge, and comically slipping, hilariously falling, and hanging on, in fast forward and then reverse, and she lay there with her eyes closed and watched the vaudeville show for as long as it took to run through it's loop several times. ~^~ Then she wondered why she was thinking in perfume ad cliches, especially ones from decades, perhaps many decades ago? This prompted her to jump, catlike, from prone, to alert, and holding her gun from beneath pillow, scanning the room. Nope. Not a perfume ad.

Falling in love is mutilating and murdering yourself. Sharing your love is carrying the dead body, showing it off, all around. For God’s sake, burn the book or leave it on its shelf. Or at least hide that horrendous corpse; bury it underground. But it’s a ****** cemetery, this witty world is. Every one bragging of decomposed dirt. Yours surely is more rotten than his. So smell the rot, you asinine little flirt. Life should come with a warning label. WARNING: DEAD BODIES EVERY WHERE. Ironic, to be born on a doctor’s table. Then die, massacred in deathly affair. But we can’t live without love, it’s hilariously tragic. For death lurks, immortal, in our hearts. Yet our minds, gullible, believe it’s magic! Beware, beware of Cupid’s darts. **** it up, Romeo, move on with life. Cleanse your soul; stop being sadistic. Sure it’s beautiful, but not when she’s your wife. It’s a dead body, you’re stupid and unrealistic.

WARNING: Dead Bodies!
*"More squirrels" She exclaims And I wonder what In the world Could it be This particular time!?* It usually starts like this... Every once in a while I find her Lost In her own thoughts Gazing At nothing in particular But everything At once. At times Like these She is a genius Gone crazy. I catch a glimpse Of those star-bound eyes And try To guess The stride Of her imagination Without Much luck. Could she be thinking about… A universe made entirely out of glass? Why humans don’t have a tail Anymore? Reasons behind love at first sight? Or what to name the 3rd butterfly She saw today? In her picture perfect Stillness I can viscerally sense A divine flow Of thoughts And it evokes in me The wonder That one experiences While watching A calm river flow Knowing Turbulent currents Are ever present Just hidden Deep inside. If I Shake her vigorously I know for sure At least 23 ideas And 47 musings Will fall around And we will laugh hilariously. But I dare not For the fear Of my life. She is an artist Painting With her imagination And you Don't disturb artists Do you? Once she’s back To the material realm She comments Randomly About how we need More squirrels In the world. I almost always Immediately concur. Then slowly ask “why?”. She gives me One of those looks. Like the ones You give your dog When it’s looking At you eating food And you’re deciding If you should Give it a small bit Or not. If I am persistent enough She gathers All her thoughts And illustrates With one of the most Amazing stories The important role Of squirrels To save our Doomed world. After listening To her Seemingly logical And Completely weird Stories I nod obediently Then carefully Check If her coffee Has something mixed in it. The gesture Makes her Burst out in laughter Every single time. And we repeat this Day after day Night after night. I'm so used to it That now Even if I hear "Cement flowers" "popcorn candies" Or "balloon bullets" I am mentally prepared To understand The story Behind all of it. That’s how it is. She keeps daydreaming About stuff And I keep dreaming about her.

I told you after I ate all those wild mushrooms "I will kick that bowl over...I'm sorry, but I will do it and I don't know why I can't force myself not to." And the bowl tumbles over, and out spill all your secrets and emotions. I didn't expect the carpet to soak you up so easy. You're sinking in like water in skin, an IV drip with ivy grip I got no reason to fight this, but it's gonna happen. So I stand here listening to you unravel yourself And it starts slowly, like your hair falls out And then your nails begin to peel back And your skin disintegrates into human ash. Your muscular system falls off like wraps from a mummy And then you tumble apart. So here I am, I told you I would do it, And I did it. And I didn't want to. Because now I am picking up all the pieces. Do you have any idea how long it takes to put a person back together again? This is a lifetime project. I have to put it on the backburner. Otherwise I'll starve to death, because hilariously enough We live in a place where we must pass the buck, Like some other things... Enough. I don't want to last here I don't want to keep myself in a state of hypocrisy I haven't had enough time for change As drastically As I hoped to have done I haven't Had Fun In Years So much sorrow for someone so young. I feel dumb Sort of like a dream Asleep but I can't see Only hear the random speech Muffled like I'm in the deep end Listening up. I haven't had enough Yet But I don't want any more.

I wish heartbreak came with a manual. But honestly, would it even help? I imagine it would be contradicting and maybe go something like this: "You may experience the feeling that you are walking away from the rarest love you'll ever experience... But don't you worry, because even if you stay a little longer, eventually you'll convince yourself you don't love them anymore, just enough to finally end it. Give it a week. Oh, there it is... You feel that? THAT feeling is the numbness wearing off and only remembering the happy parts." Or some ******** like that. Probably nothing that specific though... Only enough to have the majority relate. I imagine the narrator would sound overly enthusiastic...Which is hilariously inappropriate ... But, really, is it that hilarious? I thought getting older and having experience in dating would result in all of this **** becoming less confusing... But it really just feels worse every time for me. At the end, I couldn't even differentiate the pain and anger from the source. Did he create this suffering? Was it my reaction that set the course? Was this all in my head and I was just overeacting? Or was I justified to feel this ****** Even if I was justified, would it have even made a difference? It really got lost in translation, and I feel like I got lost in identifying that. Was this a hypnotic trance from narcissism manipulating the narration or was it using my reaction as an excuse to self-sabotage? I just want to know what really happened. I think that's the scariest part. Am I so broken, I convince myself it was them? Well, **** What are you still reading for? I don't have the ******* answer.

I am merely a poet a writer an igniter of fire the designer of a prior desire to admire the harmonious choir but quick to tire of contriving liars as the potential buyers hold strangulation wires about to lay me in a pile of blood soaked fliers until my life expires and all this illusionary harmony is alarming me stalling me in its comedy they think they're disarming me with talks of peace and prosperity as i hilariously smash their conspiracy theories as i am seriously furious when i deliriously remove the sanctity from your sanctuaries sketching lucid rhymes in obituaries as corrupted school kids watch me curiously i see your timid hands when you approach me nervously as i hiss cyphers murderously while you atrociously fumble satisfactory rhymes i miraculously summon these mumbling mimes ducking before the holy and unholy shrines no god but father time laying low tumbling dimes still ducking swine from misdemeanor crimes making local news and the seattle times as they run and hide with their nines im packing verbal calibers of all kinds and splitting minds with my lines enshrined

Someone has defaced my library book. Gone to the trouble of reading, pencil in hand, ready should the opportunity arise again. The graffiti is hilariously specific: at every mention the author makes of England, my fellow reader has added angry punctuation - question marks, exclamation marks or, at moments of presumed frustration, simply scored the word through. The book is by Kurt Vonnegut, an American humanist who would doubtless have sought to avoid such deep offense but who would have had no earthly reason for imagining that a Scot somewhere, years after his death, would ignore the story, the tragedy, the humour and the beauty in the prose so fired up was he by his conviction that Kurt should have written 'Britain' instead of 'England'. You see, proud Scots are often peeved when the rest of the world pays as little attention to them as they pay to the rest of the world. So it goes.

Annotation
I write everywhere on paper, on stone, on skin what's the difference? Each one an be erased desecrated, torn nothing is forever much less this shell with words as its framework curses and promises in the hollow of its bones what's the difference? Heart's walls paneled with mirrors everything is a mere reflection ribs are splinters with serrated edges a prison of blades, pain and anger and hate mouth is a cavern of stars emptied of illumination to see the lights fingers are claws of the beast inside always turned against its owner mind is a labyrinth of fiends forming walls against fragility, pierced and perceived when did it get so complicated? I just wanted to say I write everywhere how did it come to this? why would I want to write about that anyway about paper and stone and skin ink smeared with demons from inside the body is hilariously breakable words seep through skin as if it were paper what's the difference?

Written On The Back Cover of My English Book
The restlessness of the people The elegant city Along with the formless game of our nervous and sporadic games I admired the gardens And the pale gold odor of the kiss-me-at-the-gate It certainly was lovely And I, a beautiful little fool Hadn’t ceased looking The astounding presence And his well-loved eyes And we danced while the church bells rang in the village alongshore The world and its mistress Twinkled hilariously on the lawn And living an illusion never felt so extraordinary

The World and Its Mistress
There's a point you pass, It's when you know that no matter how hard you try, You're not going to sleep. No matter how much you want to, You've passed that point, That point of no return. You're no longer tired or exhausted, You're just hyper. Then the hyperness turns into boredom and restlessness. As the hours drag on and on And you stay up later and later, You hit the emotional breakdown. You hit the point where everything Goes from hilariously funny To tragically sad. The final point comes When you everything that comes out of your mouth, Is unfiltered! Raw emotion, Words tumbling over each other, Not making sense. And then all of a sudden, You don't know how it happens, But out of nowhere, You're lying down somewhere, Waking up from 5 hours of sleep.

Insomniac
I see it as from outside a window, Myself walking fast, head bowed, Life happening all around me without sound, Distanced even then, not sure I know why The paces of development grow hazy around that line. My heart was soft, My head curiously empty, A balloon floating along, Not certain where she might belong It was the best of times, I still go there in my head, I don't remember the feel of the wind on my face, But the feel of the wood I sat on in my classroom The urgency every time the bell rang for lunch hour, The acrid taste of isolation when I hadn't enough for the tack room It was the best of times, I still go there is my head, My friend had a bag of coin in the desk nearby, I saw her put it there and, I took it, I don't know why, They found me out, hung me dry, From then on I tried not to pry, Kids really know how to crucify. It was the best of times, I still go there in my head. When my child's eye was pure, Boys hard-wearing, still demure, I used to think I would never be self-assured, I'm still not, Confrontation ties my insides in a knot, But I live for those days, When Saturday mornings meant cartoons, Followed by hilariously misguided cooking attempts at noon, That would get you later whooped past sense All your friends watching from the fence. It was the best of times, I still go there in my head.

I Still go there in my head
Don't call Trump a chimpanzee. Chimpanzees can't talk. Don't call him a pile of **** A pile of **** can't walk. Don’t call Trump an Orange That would be indiscreet. You see, different from an orange Trump is in no way sweet. Don’t call Trump a swindler Take his fat *** to court Because when he needs proof He will always come up short. Don’t accuse him of bribery Unless you have the proof. He’ll just change his residence To another unlisted roof. Don’t call him a squanderer. He’s not if it’s his money. Trump likes stealing from other people He finds that hilariously funny. Don’t accuse him of gross lechery He feels that is his right. Don’t appeal to Trump’s conscious. He doesn’t have one quite. Don’t expect Trump to speak the truth. He doesn’t know what that is. When they were passing out ethics He was off taking a wizz. Don’t whine to us about that **** And how he disappoints. He’ll claim you heard him wrong And that is his only point. Don’t hope everything will work out In any way in your favor. Doing what’s right for regular folk Is not Donald Trump’s flavor. Don’t look for anyone in authority To rescue you from the dump. And, of course, most of all Don’t call Trump.

DON'T CALL TRUMP
i've never been happier. because last night (everything i waited for). where do i begin? i suppose with the way that lying in your arms laughing at the scary movie flashing from your tv, i felt so incandescently perfect. i suppose with the way that our first kiss (if you can call it that) was the most hilariously, adorably, endearingly awkward thing that has probably ever happened to anyone ever (i could taste your nervousness) and i suppose with our smiling whispered teasing conversation about how much better we'll get. i suppose with the way that you told me i was beautiful. i suppose with the way that your stubble scratched against my forehead when you would talk. i suppose with the way you laughed at me, quietly, when i would get scared (there were ghosts on the screen and i don't believe in them, but **** did they look real) and the way you laughed at me, loudly, when i would babble to your sister, uncontrolled and verbal-vomit, because i just want her to like me (my quirks? the reason you love me, you said.) i suppose with the way that our fingers twined together. i suppose with the way that you stroked my hair. i suppose with the way that you told me how long you loved me how long you tried (and all of it paying off now.)

how it began (two scary movies later)
It's hilariously funny to see That being random and crazy Has become such a norm to be I yearn to see the ordinary folk Being unique by being themselves Not cheap imitations of popular 'quirks' Never spouting stupidly bizarre phrases And shrugging it off on their peculiar freakishness Thinking it cool to obsess over rainbows and unicorns When in fact its just sad to see them all become The same shade duller inside; monotonous gray

Ordinary
The sludge seeps into my marrow. Filling every pore, every entrance until I’m suffocating in it. It roils and slurps with its oppressive heat And gurgles and spits until it wraps me up completely. It hardens. The shell so thick nothing can penetrate it. You chisel, and chisel away and I watch you And I laugh at you. I laugh so heartily at your futile efforts to get to my center I watch you grow frustrated I watch you get angry I watch you try by force I watch you give up and walk away And I laugh. Because I drank the hate you poured And I let it consume me. There is no hate more hilariously poisonous than yours. The delicious malice of armor created by you. Does it make you feel weak? Does it make you feel inadequate? Does it make you feel hopeless? I swim deep in those feelings until I bottom out in the ecstasy Of their prison. Bitter. My return to the present is bitter. The aftertaste of your shot of hatred is putrid. It festers and infuriates me. I want to bathe in its luxury of intoxicating drama And shoot you down where you stand until there is nothing left Of the bottle but puddles. Forget? I’ll forget when you perish. When I watch the heat From the sludge devour you inside and out. When I see the steam rise from your burnt ashes. When I pull the trigger and see the fire melt your hateful eyes into the holy oblivion of uninterrupted agony... When the world burns you as I stand unfazed in your corroded armor of hate... Then I’ll forget.

***
i hate you. i hate every single little thing about you. the way you laugh way too loud, and smirk way too much. the way you flirt with other girls, and dress like a *** the way you are hilariously unfunny, and just a tad bit to mean. the way your hair is unkept, and your room's never clean. sadly, i'm mistaken. it was once said there's a thin line between love and hate, and i really don't hate you at all, quite the opposite actually.
