"pokin" poems
It's a beautiful day,birds singing as I'm walking Mill Lane, listening to a few Me Fein Refrains, I'm whistling,feeling pretty fine and dandy, with my eyes red rovering all the eye candy, when I hear it,brakes shriekin'-women Shriekin', a mans voice-Hoarse, "Jaysus Someone do somethin", I spin on me heel,eyes centred as **** wishing this was all a dream-A runaway Truck, tires peelin' brakes smokin' rubber burnin', A runaway load,it's not gonna make the turn and it's **THEN that I feel true terror in me soul, I see a little boy playin' at the edge of the road** , he's a sturdy little lad,stick in hand, pokin' at the grasses growin' up from the path, and he's right in the Path of the Truck from hell, Theres no decision,I'm runnin' like a bat outta hell, and it's then that I get a feeling it's a Lucid dream, languidity covers me,no more screams, theres a Figure in my way that's wasn't there the last breath, then I'm literally starin' in the face of Death... and I FEEL his thoughts as he turns blank Orbits, on me and his words are like this "One Obit, uary in my Ferry is my Task today, do you really want to be the one who gets in MY WAY?(way way way), and he can HEAR my thoughts,just as I heard his, "get out the fuckin' way you long streak of **** "you said one has to go,well that's fine with me!", "I've got coins in my pocket if you need your fee!" and with a glint in his eye and a plangent refrain, he touches me centre forehead and declaims "NO PAIN" Then things speed up and I'm off fists pumpin', feet slappin' on the pavement head down, heart jumpin, I'm not the Flash,but I can move it when I need to Run, and the long drawn screech is a Hell of a starters Gun, I'm across the road like a bolt from the blue, grab the little Man and throw him,then BANG there I flew, its all earth,sky,earth,then a terrible jolt, but no pain as was promised as I come to a halt, then his Mother is there(he's on her hip) and she's holding my(only)hand, tellin' me theres ambulances and I'm gonna be grand, but theres a Grand Piano layin' on my Chest, and no pain,but to be honest here-I'm not at my best, and just as I start to think of family and friends, before Distress can manifest too much in my mind, a tall RATHER BONY figure stretches out his hand, and intones into me bones,"OFF TO THE NEXT LAND(land,land,land)"

Drinkin and Smokin
My mama’s shoes, Fit my feet too snug, now, For me to look cute, still, slippin’ them on. I’ve no need of her lipstick, nor her raspberry rouge, To make my face look, more, like hers does. I’m a big, daddy’s girl, who has known the world, But, not quite enough to really fit in. -- I still heart, Sunshine and rosies, And, playin’ with mah toesies - Eatin’ froot loops and pokin’ at roly poly’s, Makin’ colourful cupcakes, covered in sweet gummies, To eat inside forts filled with last winter’s lights, Too, Eatin’ Caramel Delights, sneakily, Stolen, in spite - of the weight, I was fightin’ so easily. -- Perhaps, When the adults are all done - playin’ house, for fun, I’ll bring my cookies from the fort, to the table. We’ll have coffee and speak of the stats, For the week and laugh about, Hart's becoming unstable. And, I shall wear loafers, That pinch at my, Toesies that fidget, Crazily, Beneath my seat.

Little Lady
Boy is my *** fat ten pancakes for breakfast, washed down with malted shake by the end of first class, I was searching for some cake wasn't paying attention, tripped over old black cat had a hard time getting up, cause my *** is so fat kids are staring at me, Walking through the halls rumbeling thunder, stuff falling off the walls a large dose of poundage, with my backwards baseball hat trying to look so cool, but boy is my *** fat saw Sally Sumter, on my way to advanced math 2 said I had an algorithm, I'd like to run by you wanted to stick around a while, you know like maybe chat, she said I really like you, but boy is your *** fat tried to skip gym class, said I had no **** did not know the numbers, to my combination lock coach said that's no reason, I ain't buying that one thing i will say though, boy is your *** fat its the story of my life, all people pokin fun ask me how much I weigh, do you way a ton want to tell them **** off, but they'd throw me on the mat not very agile, cause my *** is so **** fat Gomer Lepoet

Boy is my *** fat
:/ Some people         just gotta live. That means twistin blunts and shoutin till your red.      Some people            just gotta survive. That means pokin their head out                    on occasion and showin how green they can be.     Some people have simple ambitions like one a day vitamins, and blue Berrys. Some people just live. And some people hate those people for doing what they are afraid to do. ;)

With apologies to Edgar Allen Poe. Once, upon a weekend morning, while I slumbered, loudly snoring After many a workday of quaint and forgotten chores While I nodded, well past napping, suddenly there came a scratching, As if the paint was gently stripping, ripping from the bedroom door. “He’ll stop,” I muttered, “scratching at my chamber door.” “He’s only bored, and nothing more” Deep into my blanket hiding, there I lay in fear abiding, Doubting, hoping I could sleep as I had ever slept before; But the silence then was broken, and the door way, old and oaken, Swung open as the clever kitty, made the lock a simple chore And then my dreams were gone as are the winds of yester-yore I knew I should have fixed that door. Open then he pushed the doorway, then, with padded foot and whisker, In he stepped, the ebon creature who I bought that cat food for Not the least obeisance made he; not an instant stopped or stayed he; But, like he who owns the household, perched above my pillowed snores — Perched upon the feathered pillow which my sleeping bonnet bore — Perched, and silently implored. Then, methought, the cat grew braver, thinking of his breakfast’s savor Poking at my sleeping visage, poking more, and more and more. "Wretch," I cried, "the devil’s sent thee — a witch cat sent to leave me No respite and no Nepenthe, but only the memory of the sleep I had before! Let me quaff this kind Nepenthe and rejoin my final snore!" Purred the black cat, "Nevermore." “Be that word our sign of parting, cat or fiend!" I shrieked, upstarting — As I threw him into the darkness of the Night's Plutonian shore. “Leave my slumber unbroken! Come you not with purr and pokin’ Take thy paw out of my nostril, and take thy **** right out the door! Leave no black fur as a token, you eat at nine, and not before!” Cried the black cat, "I like before." But that **** cat, never quitting, still is sitting, still is splitting The recently repaired latex on my bedroom door; And his eyes have all the burning of a feline that is yearning, For the cat dish full of kibbles, sitting, sitting on the kitchen floor; As my soul rose from the blankets, with a howling, futile roar: Sleeping in on weekends — nevermore!

The manly cowboy put back his hat, closed the door, and so manly, walked away. Down the path he trod, avoiding all the rolling rod. Upon he came to three little young lasses, crouching over looking silently intent, little sticks in their hands. There lay a little grey mole* dead to the world. Stiff as tree eyes no longer to see. “Good day ladies” said he, the manly cowboy, tipping his hat so very gentlemanly. “what’s  that i see you a pokin’?” ‘Only a dead mouse.” said the three. “Why don’t you move the little guy, over a little there, over a little that way. "slowly with your sticks. gentle as tongs. "cover him sweetly with a blanket of wild flowers. "and leave him lying there so lovingly." i give you this advice be nice to the mice, instead of poking death death in the head so innocently but so disrespectfully.” Then tipping his hat, he was gone.

Tales of the Manly Cowboy - walkin' on a path through modern suburbia
Now really peep the game though Gotta change my scenario Sit back and charge a cigarillo Stop ******* with them kilos Hopped from a Benzo to low low Glasshouse with the pokin' 84s Foes is hoppin' guns is poppin' Body droppin' Once I let off aint non stoppin' Claimin' I'm insanity in these streets Wish I never met pistol pete Cuz of life he greets In the presence of where Darkness meets And enemies love to compete But everyday is a battle Stuck In a. Give with 24 **** hours to live Yeah So beautiful life used to be Well hell naw lets turned Back to slavery Where all of my peeps used to see Bright and sunnt Locked in whips and chains For the entertainment industry Now that I gotten a little wiser My mind explodes like a geyser On the earth in the wind Blowin fire hot as a dryer To my flows I kick ya desire Many rhymes come in a style Been a wild since I was a child Played foul never did I smile I'm givin sonic booms like guile Been while Since I step on the scene Mean as Joe Greene Aimmin' macks at soft peens Being a hero ain't what it really means.and it seems No matter how hard I fight live I only got 24 mo' to give 24 hours to live

24 Hours to Live
Hey, Ma Remember when ya forgot my birthday? Well, how could ya? They were zappin' ya brain like a moth to a flame, riddin' ya of the worms that crawled there. Well, it was my birthday, and ya didn't quite know it. Ya didn't even quite know your own age. "You turning how old?" It was funny cuz ya knew it just a week before, and the chances were slim that ya would forget at all. Oh! And hey, Ma? Remember when ya forgot the entire English language for a night? Well, how could ya? Ya went into your chambers and screamed the lord's name or at least I think ya did. Ya wreathed in pain and cursed the devil out of ya, clenching The Holy word. Ya remembered Spanish, Ma. Ya hollered what coulda been my name, or maybe the word for ***** There's no tellin'! Ya always said the word for Dog was "Perro," but I think ya might have called Ol' Miss Daisey a ***** as well. The similarity in the two words is amazin'! Well, anyway, Ma, ya were hootin' out about somethin', probably how the Devil and all of mankind had hurt ya, and Jolly Todd was the only one who could fix ya. He hushed ya like a baby, like he were the Holy Father himself. Ya sloped into sleep and didn't speak again. I love ya, Ma, and I'm glad ya don't remember those times, the ones where they were pokin' into ya like a sewer rat for science. Maybe this year the Prince of Darkness will loosen the reigns, release the bugs from ya head, and maybe ya can remember the cake this time 'round!

Gotta do it fast It's already too late • Here we stand •• On the loose --- --- Truth within the mind Love within the heart THE DEVIL INCARNATE •• ( are ya just gonna sit there With yer childhood memories Pokin yerselves with hate And rusted razor blades Thinking yer Jesus Christ ? ) •• OH OH NO! •• Demon 's on the prowl In your soul and on your street You and the beggar boy You and the police man •• Death and rebirth The Demon's got it all The only thing ya got to know Is that life and death's the same That life and death's the same •
