"mummies" poems
Box fresh protectors. How can 2 items take such a pounding day in day out? My feet are safe in their leather enclosures. Bound up like 2 Egyptian mummies.

Flicking through your magazine, you want that perfect face. Put it on your credit card, become the perfect Wife. May as well go the extra mile, book yourself in for a new hairstyle. Get your nails done, you might as well. Something bright so your friends can tell. What did it all cost? You went too far but at least you look like your favourite star. After all, let's have no doubt. To look like this is what life's about. Isn't it?? Poetry by Kaydee.

*We bask in light when morning comes, yet tremble in the night. Halloween must be the cause to give us such a fright. Ghosts and goblins haunt the streets where moans and chains abound. Ghouls and vampires lurk in shadows, scared of holy ground. Werewolves stalk unwary victims. Frankenstein is loose. Ogres, trolls and spectral zombies hanging by a noose, Gorgons with their "stoney" eyes and bats with leathery wings... Mummies wrapped in yellowed cloth with rotting flesh that clings, Pirates, gangsters, space invaders, just to name a few, All in search of "Tricks or Treats"(or just a head...or two). Beware the time when darkness comes. Be sure the door is locked. But most of all .... to just be safe ... keep lots of candy stocked.*

Trick or Treat
Camping out is an experience everyone should have The cool grass in the morning and the birdsong Timeless air keeps you alive, energises the soul. Freezing feet and nose is inevitable as blanket or sleeping bag Don't quite make the grade The hard ground or undersheet has a smell that remains In your nose and in your memory Bringing the place back to you in your latter years. Once breakfast is cooking everything seems OK The worst part is the transition of night into day Then day into night, It's easy, stay up and just look upwards No light pollution, no clouds, no sound Drink in the inky blackness as Orion's three winking lights Demonstrate how wonderful life is But more importantly how small we are Tiny dim orange lights glow in the tents and vans Muffled noises diminish as the occupants climb Into their cosy beds and roll themselves up To keep out the cold, the inevitable insects One by one the darkness becomes complete Until no more music can be heard or Voices, rustling sounds or whimpering children Wanting their teddy bear or comfort blanket Mummies and Daddies soothing The silence is deafening save a cool breeze Just flapping the tent canvas, small cracking Sounds as it rolls and then straightens. Rolls then straightens gently, gently, gently The guy ropes straining a little then relaxing Another night comes to the campsite Enveloped in darkness all are safe and inside Their little tent or van Goodnight campers, sleep tight.

Camping out
Young women know all about style - how to fix the decimal point between them and their mothers differentiate themselves from Special K over 40s wanna bees mini skirted and high heeled trying to catch their husband’s eye Yummy mummies in their 30’s are separated from the new stock by firm elastic flattened midriffs no bulge or wobble unlined skin taut sometimes navel peirced or ******* their legs wear the 4” heels again on winklepicker pointed toes for a mid century crop of bunioned feet. No scraggy necks or waddle no tea tray arses only plump peaches in the bend over show of skimpy, lacy thongs of ****** floss So, **** femme fatale is cool body object the thing to be flouncing and preening flirting and ******* random hook-ups on the run in the alleys of time on the net in the warp of space Killer ! Whatever ! Wicked ! Yeah feral !

Feminism's Babes
Between the din of dusk and dawn Runs Sleepy Pillow Lane, Where gators guard the Gates of Thorn And cryptid creatures reign. They glide across the midnight sky Like grime in sanguine sewers; White canines long and talons drawn Spike rodents on a skewer. Gray giants glare from full-moon eyes, A ghastly ghoulish spell; Sweet sleepers swell the wells of Nile While centaurs swing the bell. Horned vipers writhe into your fears Like scythes through strangled weeds; And severed heads of angel hair From shouldered stumps relieved. A putrid pile of newly-deads Awaits the devil's scorn; And legless maggots gorge in beds From which the fly is born. Hungry hyenas howl in packs While circling carrions crow; And chunks of flesh are torn from backs Cracking bones bare below. Scavengers feast on man and beast, No rotting limb is spared; From hanging tongues to napping feet Blood splatters everywhere. Brimstone and thunder fill the air With hail presaging doom; Ten toothless witches shriek and cheer As zombies creep from tombs. Masked mummies stalk with stakes and stones In search of sleeping heads; They crave the skulls and living bones Of bodies slumped in bed. Through R.E.M. you toss and turn And roll on restless wheels; Alas Red Rooster blows his horn To end your grim ordeal.... ~ P (January, 2013)

Sleepy Pillow Lane...
Land of the mummies, Not at all the mothers, The fabled dead people, Draped in crepe bandages, Appearing creepy to kids, Ranging from Aegyptus, To high above the Andes.

The Other Mummies
It makes sense that a mummy was required For the exodus out of my king rut By wrapping me in silk and satin And embalming me with love But my brief time as pharaoh ended A tomb at the pyramid I once attended Thoughts of my sins plagued me Did I get too froggy? Or maybe he just met another sarcophaguy Or maybe I misunderstood him When he invited me over for desert I wanted to conquer you Like Brendan Fraser Now I just want to talk to you Like John Edward I tried unearthing artifacts to channel your spirit But your grave had been robbed And after swimming in denial for so long Wandering through the Sahara feels wrong Your carefree kingdom is where I belong But the evasive Ra warned That the ghosts of snake charmers Are abrasive and horned

so you call yourself pro-life okay, I guess I can pretend to respect that which then means that you must also respect the fact that I am very loudly pro-choice and thanks to science I know that a bundle of cells and a living child are not the same thing because an actual fetus is not fully formed until the third trimester and by fully formed I mean that it is for all intents and purpose alive but before that there is nothing but a group of cells there is no brain no heart not even pearly pink fingernails so now what, huh? you’re probably going to keep protesting Planned Parenthood and harassing the people that work there, right? because all that Planned Parenthood does is condone the vicious and inhumane ****** of defenseless, unborn children, right? right? either way, you don’t care about the child once they’re born all that you care about is making a woman and other individuals who have a ****** carry this thing that is literally feeding off of them and why should a child be brought into this world if the circumstances through which it was conceived are non-consensual? because, if you really did care if you really were “pro-life” then you would care about the child after it is born or better yet you could turn your attention and time and money and anger to all the millions of orphans living in the US ya know, the living children? with no homes? with no parents? packed like sardines in orphanages? what about them? do they not matter because they are not a group of cells, and therefore not defenseless? and therefore they do not matter? because, if you only care about that bundle of cells and because some states actually make women and those with uteruses have funerals for the aborted “child” then by default whenever a man masturbates and then ********** shouldn’t he be made to have a separate funeral for each of the thousands of children that he just killed? because one of them could have cured cancer, ****** and tell me when I was still menstruating should I have said “amen” over all the potential children that bled out of my body and into the pad and the sides of my boxers? should I have said “grace” over all the little pad mummies that I threw away? should I have cried when I flushed the ****** toilet paper? because, since I have a ****** how dare I want and feel as if I should be owed control over my own body, right? how dare I believe that each and every woman biological and otherwise have a say in what they do with their body how dare I be pro-choice, right? well, let me knock you down a few pegs with this closing statement: if you only care about the “child” when it is just a group of cells that doesn’t feel a **** thing and couldn’t care less about it once it is born and homeless or an orphan or queer then you are not “pro-life” what you are is an *******

A World Without Wi-Fi      »by Megha Elizabeth Koshy. ------------------------------------- The people in the world Like machines they go With tiny commanders On their palms At the streets, at the malls At the office, at the homes. Some even chattering to their buddies At the next door! People behave like dummies Who carefully keep ears sharp To there notification  tones, But never to their mummies! Kids who pay attention for their Comments and likes But never bother to brush their teeth twice! People are slaves of technology Like electronic gadgets If not plugged in they run out of life. Now just imagine.... A World Without Wi-Fi For one single day People may fall sick And some will even die! --------------------------------------

A World Without Wi-Fi
"Go Slow", I told my life in January "I want to take this journey at your pace" "I want to build those bridges again" "I want to complete you as I would always want" "Hello!” I heard a call from the near far. Was it really a response from the healing heart of February?! "I hold the right to set your pace" "I hold the right to bless you sleeps" “I hold the right to curse you sleeplessness" “I decide the right for you in everything" Until the obscene April summer turned up, It was not life; but the Cyclone’s desire to fell everything en route. I learned; there might be things to cherish But would not want to own again Rains in Kerala carry the rhythms of life I once again made those paper boats At my pace, as the 10 year old, And as July demanded Life grew deeper within, in that rhythm of rains Nursing the one who nursed me for long I learned, there are only cycles in life, There is only movement in life The flight took off, despite the pedantic reasons thrown over the tarmac In that morgue of frozen mummies, I felt the futility of expectations My Wings of fantasies halted, on top of the panoramic Great Wall In the arc lights of award night, I enjoyed the pleasure of losing Walking alone the Washington streets, I found the walks of life... November comes concealing a lot; it conceive sorrows It grows a detached attachment within and around you November reinforces the relativity in everything Life, love, respect, trust and confidence I like the reds in December, it's flamboyance I like the irony of "hope" brought in by this very end! There are only cycles in life, no gains or losses There is only movement in life, some forward And some stuck in the maze and not knowing which way.

Love the name. Got upset When the man called out, Seen. Stupid man. It's Sean, and not Shawn. A year older than Gerald. Two younger than Kevin. Two older than me. That's Sean. Daddy wrote home about us. Maura was working at the hospital. Sheila was finishing highschool. Kevin won the Science Fair. Sean plays ice hockey with the All Stars, All over Canada and the U.S. I found the letter, penned in '62, A jagged European cursive. They tend to write the same. I've seen the words, run together to hide the spelling; With JMJ's and TG's sprinkled like manna throughout. The last page was missing, Just when Daddy'd write about Gerald, me, and Marlene. Gerald with his Beetles haircut. Me, mimicking ( probably mocking), Some unknown priest, to my father's delight; Marlene, the wee pigeon, he missed most when he worked Away from home. Jimmy, The Bruiser, wasn't here yet. The last of an Irish brood settled in Canada. I discovered it in the spare room at Granny's and Frank's. There was no mention of Michael, Eucheria or Particia. He exaggerated about the harsh, six-month winters here, And our proximity to the North Pole. Suggested Frank try putting copper wires around Granda's wrists; The Egyptian mummies didn't exhibit signs of bone deterioration. Daddy was hard-pressed to be proven wrong when he concocted. Sean had a drawer full of ribbons, medals, trophies and plagues, And a large S, his Senior Letter. He also had sideburns, a much smaller nose, and,  smelled as good as he looked, The Elvis dip-curl, the Connery swag, the Selleck stash to Clooney cool. Sean kept a disposition of hidden pains secreted for others. A heart of tears. A spirit of adventure. I love Sean, I recall. He is always welcome here. Drops by sometimes. It's always a great surprise.

# ***The twilight clouds went scudding past like witches on their brooms. The sound of laughter filled the night as ghouls departed tombs. "Trick or treat!" resounded as menageries filed by... Filling up their bags with loot while candy stores ran dry. Dentists filled appointments books in brisk anticipation... Knowing that enamel would not stand such laceration. Zombies stagger down the street and vampires trip on capes. Power Rangers, Ninja Turtles, Frankenstein escapes! Princesses and knights with swords, mummies by the score... Ghosts and goblins saunter by and darkened homes ignore. Masks of every shape and type monsters and the like... Arriving via motor pool on foot, skateboard and bike. Kids of every age invade demanding tribute thus... (Oh dear... here comes another group arriving on a bus.) People donning hobo clothes adorned in eye-holed sheets... Wearing out the doorbells on the darkened, porch lit streets. Jack o lanterns hiss and spit as candles soon expire. Children head back home to count their swag and then retire. At last the tempest peters out. The pageantry is gone. I look out at the candy wrappers littering the lawn. Another Halloween is done. I hope they had their fill. "Trick or treat!" still resonates I hear its echoes still. But... just around the corner as Thanksgiving season nears... We hear the spiels and ads of all the rabid marketeers. Turkeys gobble restlessly at axes sharp and keen... For them... this is a nightmare... just another Halloween.*** #

My blood is marked by genocide on the two sides of these Atlantic lines My fate was sealed with the blood stains of cotton workers from Marash slaughtered by the ottoman and the mixed blood of conquerors and massacred of masters and estranged slaves The rot of colonialism lurks underneath our 15 second democracy My eyes were numbed by what I hadn´t seen after the ***** war was over after the bowels of the Earth had vomited bones in Uruguay lifeless infant mummies in the soft heart of Africa after the tide brought in the loot of generals, green men of power and no shame My past was carved with knives on children´s bones in the mountains of Leninakan with hanged peasants on the slopes of Ararat My human pride was dumped in Rio de la Plata one summer night in a death flight that time when I had learnt to sing before I grasped the word The word was born from the colonial rot under our soil and under Africa The word was black and cast a deadly storm before the sun The word was Genocide

The Night hosts her socials for the monsters inside and out In the moonlight we come dancing, clinking bottles, wandering about We are goblins, ghouls, mummies, witches, zombies and misfits alike Dressed up in our finest tuxedos, pearls, lace, bloodstains and the like The Daylight wont have us, but the Night plays hostess to our monster bones She slips into her midnight blue party dress and she puts on the Ramones And we dance we dance we dance O, we are the dark psychopaths, the feared, the soulless creatures We companions by the moonlight are shaking, stammering vultures We are friends in wayward trudges, we are spitting, foaming vermin We are in love       We are the World's rejected kin The ghouls and the witches and our old zombie friends, The World's most dark and repulsive in clear-cut diamonds, We monsters aren't alone in the night, drunken, broke and hideous, Charming and disgusting, we are the Night's beloved insidious In the night, we are happy, giddy, wasted children We are the Fiend Club, we are the monster brethren Until we are caught, disfigured, drunk and red-handed        by the Daylight And we make our way home, to crawl under the floorboards        and sleep until twilight Until the Night's long fingers slip an invitation under the door And we will put our party dresses and our tuxedos on once more *O, the moon is out and the Fiend Club has woken The Night is young and we are broken*

Anger making you lash out.            That's a problem,  you see        love is kindness, not anger and grief. "I'm a father and I do a few things right.

Now get the bucket, that rests next to the                                                  little ones bed. Sleep my baby, mummy and daddy are close. A father is meant to show love,                                     don't be a part timer. Were meant to be proud of what we have or had with the love of our life.                         We created someone, who will bring a smile to eithers face just with a look.

Souls wandering, Midnight Mass Rescued hearts, craving less distress Willing participants, for Gods graces Sinner or saint, all worth measured Through the extent to which they Carry this life Dreamers & wishers, take a backseat The strugglers making confessions Their first feeble steps, starts at one Plea forgiveness from those They hurt or betrayed, when they took This path, to not be with another Or at one with the life around them Never in life, will we know another Truly know all of them, exposed Even secrets kept safe, between lovers Parted kisses & naked skin Flesh on flesh keep them together How could she know it would Ever come to this Walking out the door for his next score He swore he was done Baby tears crying into his mummies Eyes, promises made, broken only Hours later, leaving mother & child Losing his family, she remained his last Hope, those wandering souls Lost in Midnight Mass A fall from grace, cupids arrow Wrapped with a bow Then later the bundle from heaven That kept daddy in those meetings Counting the steps, bronze chip Sobriety for a year, lost the day the Door banged behind him Denial his confidant, only friend Left behind a mummy cried Holding their only son Crack ******* **** or smack Choose your sin, lose a life She knew He knew This baby was all that was left With no sign Or clue. © Sia Jane

One Last Hit
I've been adding To my landfill, All my earthly years; Backfilling, Filling spaces, With blades And brushed off tears. The diggers will uncover Loves that now are cold; Wrapped as Memoried mummies, Alive while I grow old. Prying spades will One day dig My community of graves.

Halloween was always one of my Favorite nights of the year, Although the waiting was torturous As the date drew near. What to wear? was always the question. Not rich enough to be trendy, We put together makeshift costumes, And Dad would always pretend he Didn't have enough money To spend on fancy treats. "Besides," he said, "my theory Is basically sweets are sweets." We didn't have Darth Vader back then; Kids were pirates and cats, Skeletons, hobos, cowboys and Indians, Devils, witches, and bats. Mummies, scarecrows, fairies, clowns-- Whatever we could devise. Many kids were simply ghosts In sheets with holes for eyes. Ah, the treats: chocolate coins, Cookies, Milky Ways, Popcorn ***** candy corn, Necco Wafers for days, Abba-Zabas, Tootsie Rolls, Bubble gum cigars, Licorice, Candy cigarettes, And Snickers candy bars. We got Double Bubble in packs, Taffy, Cup-O-Gold, Milk Duds, Jujifruits-- A mountain of treats all told. The experts had TWO costumes And made the rounds twice, As if one giant bag of candy Was never going to suffice. Back at home we'd pour out our candy, And then the bartering started. Since I had two older brothers, I was usually outsmarted. Mom and Dad let us monitor Our own candy stash, And we survived the candy feast Without a sugar crash. Until I was fourteen years of age, I'd never had a cavity, Despite living in Candyland In utter sugar depravity. But I can still eat candy now And not go trick-or-treating, Though, granted, there are more nutritious Foods that I should be eating. - by Bob B

we have our tongues wrapped around things we cannot speak. we have but to open a door. but that's lost all meaning. you keep your secrets. but keep them very loudly... you're always choking on whatever it is you really think about me.
