"whammy" poems
The last kiss from you
Lasted like a huddle in
The snow blitz
Rocking my anatomy
In the frosty glitz
The last words from you
That barged in my eardrum
You were in a hurry
To smell a new leaf
Draped in a diamond dew
The last gifts from you
Was an instrument
Which still I use
To recognize people
Or to refuse!
The last time
You said I love you
I remember I was laughing
Hysterically as if I was watching
Jared Leto’s jaded mimicry of Joker in YouTube
Intriguingly, when the last time I saw you ****
It felt like pretty Ivanka’s embarrassment
Noticing her dad is a lewd
The last time I was chatting
With you on Facebook
I was wondering why
I shouldn't hack your account?
To check your inbox
Yea, it was filled with the message of *******
F- Bombs, **** shaming and tagging you as harlot
All they were asking was your service of escort
Either in full discount or in hefty cash drops!
The last time I wrote
A letter of love to you
I discovered my Keyboard
Began to blurt out
No more, No more, No more…
The last time I had a chit-chat
With you in the Burger King or Pizza Hut
I listened to your hissing clack-clack
That someone else has become your puppy cat…
The last time I became sick
When I was with you
I heard you threw a party
Where you were whispering
To your besties, how
I become your double whammy!
The last time I was
With you in the bed
I felt like I was indentured
To **** a dummy toy
Sans spirit and flesh!
Loving you was like
Santa Claus gifted me
With a Pandora’s Box
As soon as I opened it
You decided to release
Our *** tape of your having ******
In pornhub’s forum of interracial!
The last time I heard of you
Is that you were giving an interview
To The Cosmopolitan’s board of review
Facing the barrage of inquisitions
You calmly joked, the series
Of latest uproar about you
In the social media or Internet
Is because certain people always
Love to rave about Women’s body
Shoving in and out of their pigeonhole
With their one night stand queen trophy
To flavor your form in their fantasmic mouth
You also smirked in a raspy voice
Defiantly declaring “we (women)
Have been locked indoors
With no air, no food, no water”
My last boyfriend is also no exception
He certainly thinks I came this far
Through ******* and deception

**** serenely amid the surround-sound system and break the sound barrier and remember what *** appeal there may be in celibacy. As far as possible without surrender be located on voluptuous bafflegabs amongst squillions creatures. Jabber your clean breast ravishingly and revealingly; and bug to odds, even the dead from the neck up and half—baked; they too **** their mythical being. Lynch yobbish and Eurosceptic creatures, they are hot potatoes to the spunk. If you calibrate yourself with the aid of genetically modifieds you may become naff and disgusting; for always there will be juicier and grosser girls than yourself. Fuck your bear and ragged staffs as well as your carcasses. Acropolis caressed inside your cough up jackboot, however uncouth; *** appeal is a **** abracadabra at the sign of the channel—hopping weathercocks of porridge. Cock sadomasochist in your pigeon filths; for the big bang theory is chock—full of Piltdown man. Nevertheless let this not ********* you to what pith there is; thick celebrities have a crack at for foul—smelling specimens; and in all quarters ***** is oozing of exhaustion. Touch yourself. To cap it all **** not ape where the shoe pinches. Neither be cheeky about ****** ergo chez the ******* type of oodles menopause and double whammy schoolgirl complexion is as shrinkproof as the Antichrist. Treat like **** out of charity the tax collector of the yonks, buxomly jettisoning the seed of the vigorousness. Give **** enormousness of ***** to fluoridate you inside eye—opening extremity. But do not abuse yourself using crooked paintings. Noisy funks are impregnated of knock up and stiffness. Over the hills and far away a **** straitjacket, touch affectionate *** yourself. You are a brat of the swarms, no less than the crab apples and the diamond geezers; you have a right to breathe from end to end. And whether or no or not *** appeal is plain as a pikestaff to you, nay no grit the not peanuts is spreadeagling as the body beautiful should. Ergo be at titbit with Fetish whatever you inseminate him to be posted, and whatever your alpha—fetoprotein tests and farts inside the full—throated nymphomaniacs of ***** wigwam come—hither look using your ****** intercourse. With all *** appeal’s tattie bogle, slavery and mutilated musclemen, the body beautiful is still a tall, dark and handsome big bang theory. Stand pert. Die in the attempt to be boozed up.

Adam touches down
in heaven upon the high.
But his highwater mark
wasn’t solely one way.
He could hear the jingle
upon the high resonates
beneath the ground!
He could see the cloud
forms on the top
and rains down to the ground.
Bow down on the earth
and rise high.
Lo, the golden spiral too,
curves downward
before spiking high up.

a passing balloon piece,
his, within in a message,
makes the imagery explode
with numerous contractions,
even confusions, and requires an
explaining explication and a fresh
application of sealant
men see the words ~ think war or football,
women think of the lyric, phrase in a sad
love ballad that means recall, and a
moistening tear drop that liquifies but doesn’t drop
but that word, pulverized, has an enormity
attached, that conjures destruction total,
s battlefield’s aftermath, tree stumps cut
down, synchronized with bodies in parts,
sole souls departing
without reasoning/justification
the lineage upon her face,
pulverized by sorrow and
no expectations for the morrow,
gaveled into existence,
by losses and carried
for a length of a term ill defined,
as “life”
with no hint of irony, for it’s not life
when it’s spent reminiscing remembering
the dismemberment of what was a
joy taken instantly and perpetually inexplicabe
the tragedies multicolored in black,
a solid stolid state that nary a meter,
talking centi’s here, pinch of breeze
and /or hurricane alters status quo,
both of us have long known that, but
we nonetheless pick up grains, single
alphabet scrambled pieces to put the
whole together again, but it’s a cause
hopeless cause we be
are
pulverized inside so
the chorded chore is
a double whammy
and still
and yet
we say
but,
for we cannot stop our fingers
from their appointed rounds
and we think in term not of hope
but a thought out louded,
the eternal question,
what if
we do not try?

There was a Double Rainbow
in the sky, over my house today,
Any special meaning there you say?
Double Luck, Double Trouble,
Double Dip, Double Bubble,
Double Up, Double Down,
Double Dutch, Double Duty,
Double Play, Double Header,
Double Cross, Double Jeopardy,
Double Negative, Double Genitive,
Double Dealings, Double Whammy.
Double Jointed, Double Hung,
Double Pleasure, Double Fun.
I'm quite sure I could go on like this,
Beyond the ordinary, If only I had
my copy of Mister Webster's Dictionary.
Working this over in my mind,
running it up and running it over.
The best conclusion I can reach,
Two stripe rainbows are nothing more,
than what you see and what you think.
A pretty painting in the sky, and hence
Of no other particular consequence.

why make videos these days...
they're easy target,
for people who read,
or largely (pretend to) read...
the bare minimum...
journalists with the equivalent
of the bare minimum of
journalism:
namely?
literacy.
a journalist these days...
wow!
they can read! they can
write! read & write?!
**** me! a double whammy!
you sure we shouldn't ascribe
them policing stature &
authority?!
like...
simultaneously?!
let's face it...
they have investigate
the double curriculum venture...
we know how donkeys play
the bet...
they gamble with a
worth of a carrot,
and always return with
stick's worth of motivation
to gamble stupid once more.

We ate chicken sandwiches, mine
no bun, at a table with an 80's
geometric design on top of two silver
metal legs with our legs
intertwined. I tried
to draw a comic on the wrapper,
but you kept making me laugh
by reenacting the conversation
we had with the lady at the register
who gave us the wrong change,
but using a baby's voice instead.
The boy mopping the floors wished
desperately that we would leave, but
you looked so cute with ketchup
on your lip and I really, really
didn't want you to drop me off.
There was an Adele song
on the radio that we've heard for the second
time, but you sound more like
a forgotten track to a John Hughes film--
a little heavy, a little messed up, a whammy
bar progression with blonde hair
who wore jeans and had a really cool car.
I'd like to kiss you like Molly Ringwald
does Judd Nelson in that movie
we talked the whole way through as it played
on Netflix. I'd like to wear you
like a bad haircut; something no one else
understands but I pull off effortlessly.
You feel effortless to me. So refill
my take-out cup with five different sodas,
make a scene as we leave the restaurant,
my hand laced up in yours, and let me drink
you in as I pretend we aren't driving
back home just yet.

Oopy Doopy, Super Sloopy.
Loopy snoopy, pants apoopy.
Lippy hippy, slippy dippy.
Nasty-nicey, normally snippy.
Loosey goosey, chocolate moussey.
Usually *** goofy as Gary Busey.
Hinky-stinky presidential *****
Winky-blinky, dangerously stinko.
Hippity hoppy, flippy-floppy
Get a mop, it never stops.
Laughy gaffe-y, riffy-raffy
Face as gross as rotten taffy.
Whammy-bammy, scary scammy
Mammy-jamming Uncle Sammy.
Lumpy-dumpy, far from humpy
******* up future jumpy bumpy.
Glossy boss, a frightful loss
Ungathered moss at twice the cost.
Serious gap while the country naps
****** sap giving us a slap.
Frightening nooses tightening,
Rights denied like summer lightning.
Ignoring Popes and Snopes
Hopeless dopes put us on the ropes.
Immune to our cries, elected guys
Make horrifying decisions most unwise.
Like black magic before all our eyes
We’re leaderless as freedom dies.

All the
money a blank check
is worth for,
could never compare to
the true value,
of an
individual.
There's always
something
special
for everyone.
Cause everyone
is
something
special.
The world just
doesn't
want you
to know,
that you matter.
Cause they're afraid you're
going to
change
a
cycle,
that's been orbiting'
the earth,
since before we were here.
A circle-cycle, in it's simplicity is a double negative.
Like the Devil getting cozy
on a Demon's shoulder.
Double whammy.
Stop.
**** this.
I'm just cashed.
Today.
Tomorrow,
will
be
BETTER.

Numb deep within
Can't feel my feet
Up to my heart
Do i exist?
Anytime i feel
It hurts
Everyrhing races
i am afriad
I can't remeber
Ever belonging
Not in a social sense
Or being real
I get too tired
I feel as a child
Seeing monsters
Giant man eating
Lobsters
Demons running amok
Every breath of mine is bad
Luck
I swear to god
I belong in a mental institute
Im not real
Are you?
I'm alone
Ive been alone forever
And ever more
I'll be alone
My life is flashing
It's all been so quick
And I've hated every second
Of my breathing
I miss my mother
I miss my brothers
My whole family
I think played a big whammy
They must be fake too
My scared eyes sometimes see
Through
Theres a veil you see
Doctors say it's anxiety
Thats a lie to keep me busy
We aren't real
I'm so scared
I can't describe this fear
It never leaves me
I'm shivering and afraid
The monsters coming to consume me
Look hard enough
You'll see real mosnters
Slenderman and demons
Theyre all real
Mocking us
Im still a little girl
Sad and afriad of the world
All i see is fear and creatures
Lurking with no ****** features
No one will hold me
My soul is ******* empty
Is god real
Why won't he answer me
He probabaly is around
And ignoring me
That is the theme of my
Reality
Can someone just hold me
Let me forget my dark reality
Im so ******* afraid
I must be extremely brave
I see demons larger then i can comprehend
Yet i go out and still stand
If someone held me
And didn't leave
Maybe for ahwile
I would feel real
And not as a scared
Child

pupils pin
eyes roll back
your body shakes
it needs the smack
your mind it leaves
it wonders off
your brain is numb
your senses lost
the dope is near
your viens they call
they try to hide
your skin
it crawls
sniff it
smoke it
slam it home
you and the dope
are now alone
a bit to much
and you dont come back
your heart might stop
cause it's attacked
kiss your kids
and say goodnight
this next trip
might just
end your life
senses soft
your no longer boss
the dope it has you
at any cost
lose your job
lose your family
lose your mind
a triple whammy
the devil
once he's on your back
he don't want off
you've made a pact
you live alone
in your vacant mind
thoughts of love
and life
gone by
locked away
but not to late
help your mind
revive it's fate
it takes work
and sacrafice
to **** the devil
and this life
divorce this beast
as fast as you can
get back to life
and being a man
look to tomorrow
and you will see
a brighter future
thats drug free
the run is over
time to get sober
regain the chance
to grow
much older

I died
You shoved my head down and I won't fight
You needed my heighth
I needed your plenty,
we sit still empty
A world of more, although we feel poor
We hit that Whammy
Thank God the devil is cunning
No possession just an impression
I'm a point away from saying, "ok you can have it your way"
Tonight I breathe tight and sleep with one eye
Cheers to my fright
I am always prepared for that last bite

Early morning flight, you're
in for the long haul but you
toss and you turn and you
just can't get any sleep so you
board the night train and it
keeps you up as it pulls
out way too soon and through
pitch dark you're speedballing you
rock and you roll but you
gather no moss as you
slip and you slide as you
try to find your way across
a barren landscape of black ice
The nomad follows the northern light
hopes against hope for Holland in the night
miles away from home, address unknown
waiting for a sound or sight of heaven
Next thing you know, you're a
quarter down with no will to go on
ordinarily there'll be three more
but you really don't want to carry on
just hold your horses for a little while
reign them in, don't let them
jump the gun and out the coach 'coz
the midnight express is moving fast
now it's the middle of a moonless night
but Saturn casts its ugly shadow
ringing in yet another re-rerun
fashioning the grand return
a shadow on the morning sun
The geek's got prospects in Acapulco,
dabs her pinprick eye and rides her white horse
down the rabbit hole, milestone 24
but still no sound or sight of heaven
So you pull the chain and bring
the runaway train to a grinding halt
and you step outside but it's
not yet dawn as you shiver at the sight
no there's no one in sight except
that widow draped in a white cloth
red lantern in hand at the door of
a room at the far end of platform number one
a light that shines like a beacon it beckons
urging you to embrace the dark side
but it still ain't what you asked for
where are the bright arclights
and the glares of the videocams?
You thought you'd be a lamb but
no one played the guide so you
led yourself to the slaughter, sadly
it ain't no pay-per-view, no
broadcast live world over, HD
you wished to be the voice of
a vociferous generation but you're not
no medallion, no trophy, no Grammy
now you're in permanent rehab
with nothing but a double whammy, you've
neither life nor legacy as you
show up for your great gig in the sky
long before your time has come
Led astray by the northern light
all hope's lost on a brown Persian night
no direction home from milestone 27
guess there never really was a heaven

Set foot, stand on ground
Wakes up early before kickdawn
Rich in culture, filled with bask
Thanks god, for every grain, for
every rain,for every ray and another day.
Back to fields , growing seeds
Plucking the mist of irrational deeds
Running the treadmill of ounce dearth.
okay,let's count
when no rain, an unreasonable pain
Unseasonable rain, yet it flood the drains
Glimmering sun, adhesive air,
verdant emerald of vegies and corn
Filled with sweat of one's brow
They live life in a dense mess
Farmers are in complete distress
Apparantly with no fruitful harvest
The whammy bankers further oppress.
Their light erades like a blaze
They in darkness try to elope
But whirls in deep evil-twin
And find life hard to cope
then they pick up a rope
And hang-up all their hopes!
With this, one less counts the population
And this is how it will end,
the population count will decrease
No doubt with cost of an earnest gem!

Here I stand from the assailant of the world
The burden I carry slows me from moving my feet
The daggers they throw lacerated my being
I stumbled with an agonized cry
There's a whammy inside that
I'm too frightened to fight
It's the heap of gaze where believing was crushed.
Perceiving the truth I am thrown underground
A black abyss where screaming won't make any survive.
Just when someone hand me his arm
I submerged from the hole of what's draining my heart
I thought I'm alone but the light stopped by
The lightness He creates is blinding my eyes
I learned that giving up will lose your mind
Ignore the crowd that have push you.
Auscultate what's it beating for.
Reach for the peak and look at your feet. Everyone will gape and see what's beyond.
You're a sky!
That's high you'll become.

Death stared at me from the same recliner she always did.
Her veins wrapped around her legs like spider webs.
She poured pepper on her perogies and commentated for the TV,
“No whammy, no whammy, no whammy, Stop.”
I was too busy making plans on my phone.
“Isn’t this nice?”
Yes grandma
She used to clean her Catholic church on Saturdays.
I’d bring my toys she got me from McDonald's
and ran my race cars through the ramps filled with holy water.
She’d lay arms stretched before the alters and I’d follow suit,
but only in play. Our devotion was not the same.
“You make me so proud, my little Christian.”
Yes grandma
I’d spend nights for what must of been months,
because she lived in town where the parties were.
I was chasing tail, drugs and alcohol.
We’d both pretend she had no idea at all.
Our best conversation following a night of glassy eyes.
What we said I can’t recall.
Soon enough the pattern fell as I finished high school.
I moved away and walked new halls, an undergraduate.
It was in those halls my phone cried out and I soon after.
I drove new roads my eyes a flowing well.
We waited outside her room in vain.
I would not get see her that day.
I made a point to see her once she returned home.
She now sunk where her rear was once plump.
Her skin sagged relieved from the pressure.
Fluid dripped out her lungs the color of Pepto Bismol,
and they missed every second breath.
Yet, she was beaming, “Look how skinny I am.”
Yes grandma
I’d only see her once more, after another trip.
She slept in that same recliner as the TV played.
Wispy white hair, thin pressed lips and tired eyes.
Her head hung against her chest and I hid mine.
My sister asked if I’d like to wake her just to say hi.
I considered it, but thought better.
“No, I'll catch her next time.”

we drank and smiled
pull a card, see what you hit.
hesitation in my eyes, as is usual
because there's this risk, exposure, disclosure
the fatal flaw that will give them a tool
to see inside.
this little game is nothing new
and i've long been a mystery, unwilling
to shed my lizard skin
but to sit here, exposed in an open bar,
inside, no escape. what could i do?
pulling the card was easy, my method
tried and true; shuffle, break, shuffle, draw.
the coincidence of the draw, disarming.
a double-whammy, it's the same card
and
i am numbed.
well? they demand.
rumbling around inside
i reach, the meaning not lost.
the words become hot tears in my mouth
and i read. my apologies for the emotions
foretold and forgiven it's okay
but no it's not. strength does not come
when you cry from the bench.
when my knees bled, isn't that how it happened?
those experiences, did they not strengthen me, but maybe not-maybe just the opposite.
normalize it and we can move forward, but reach first
cover your eyes, while you demand this from others.
disarming and alarmed i struggle for composure.
quickly the moment is lost, unsure of how or who is to
thank, and even now i can't recall
silence maybe? or was it the arrival of the check?
my punishment, a realization
one that cannot be silenced;
it's in the weakness that the
strength forms, in the stone's willingness
to be tossed about with little direction
unknown where it is to land and just
getting polished and ready along the way.

Take the time
Give a gift
Bust a ryth
Drive the whammy
To the charitable side.
Wam wammer hammer
Into her rise.
Remember sweet 21
Honey buns? Remember
Timely 27 fun young gun.
Me and my wife
Prowled the world and the sun
We had a grandson,
Time of our beloved.

i don't know about you, but ******** out
a high-fibre ****
out of your ***
feels just as good,
if not more,
as good,
as having an ******
**** when that slug slides
out?
thump! plop! ploop!
given that...
i can't imagine shoving anything
up that alley...
there's too much
pleasure easing something out
from that cul de sac....
why would i even want to
stick something in there?
perhaps having ******** allows
you to make that comparison...
taking a **** can feel
just as good as having an ******
or urinating, with a ********
but that's just me...
we know how western society
is oh so objective / "scientific"...
so... why would we need food critics for?
or wine critics?
it either tastes great...
or it tastes like ****
if we're being so ******* scientific,
do we need these scientific
differentiations to be respected in our,
so called, society?
who needs them?!
off to the guillotine with them,
alongside that ***** of an antoinette!
what sort of society prizes
itself as being primordially-scientific,
clueless ******* objective by my say,
and then champions restaurant critics,
or food critics... or critics for their own
worth...
what part of giving a critique of food
is objective, to later bombast a stance
for championing darwinism as the pinnacle
of humanity's total worth?
maybe i missed something.
anglophone wankers;
have a jerk-and-whammy on this crap!
like all of engloosh science:
robin hood, who could, but never would.

Mar 26, 2017 at 4:21 AM UTC
I have been growing
Yet, still have fallen
One step forwards
And three back
"A period of self reflection"
It really is a double-whammy
I had to and am having to
learn to become an "adult"
While learning not having you around
I hope it's true
"The first is always the worst"
I really do hate to exacerbate
I just don't if it'll ever be the same
It haunts me, what you said
On the phone call of guilt
"It can never be the same"
My loving bones trembled
Of the guilt, there remains
It was a life ago we loved
You bid me farewell
On my voyage to be better
I am still not there
I know it's all up to me
But I hate to disappoint
I hope to still see you then

Wrote this this morning after I'd seen a Swedish singing star interviewed with torn, torn jeans talking about how he came to be no longer nervous when performing.
Sing Your Song All Wrong As Long As It Feels Right
(a prose poem - meter but no rhyme – well, a little)
I used to be invisibly controlled by rules,
Sometimes blamed on pressures peer:
Perhaps I am still, will be ever.
Rules inhibit, yea, dear reader,
Leading art and your behavior.
Double whammy*, inspiration, guide and model
When you would most like to feel
Creative, and spontaneous,
Well pleased, extemporaneous.
Subtle, so immensely, so intensely so;
Astonishing how much one swallows,
Soaking up, believing garbage as god’s truths
So hard to scrap;
All those rules coming from the praxis of the earthliest of mouths.
What is it sought beyond all else?
It’s freedom, spontaneity,
Belief that what you’re doing
Is its own confession, own possession;
Valid as the others
Always followed and believed the best.
Now I’m older.
Times have altered.
Folk appear on television with torn jeans.
Fashions once thought awful - trends.
In the end,
The young will always be impacted by
‘The others’ they think templates,
Patterns, blueprints, guides.
I have seen the light.
Sing your song all wrong as long as it feels right.

whammy |ˈ(h)wamē|
noun ( pl. -mies) informal
an event with a powerful and unpleasant effect; a blow : the third whammy was the degradation of the financial system. See also double whammy .
• an evil or unlucky influence : I've come to put the whammy on them.
ORIGIN 1940s: from the noun wham + -y 1 ; associated from the 1950s with the comic strip Li'l Abner, in which the hillbilly Evil-Eye Fleagle could “shoot a whammy” (put a curse on somebody) by pointing a finger with one eye open, and a [double whammy] with both eyes open.
