Earl Schumacker Poet Free verse

Amuse Me

Amuse Me

Take my babies and drown them in sin
Turn them into savages
Remove my soul with pliers
Walk me hand in hand to the alter
To my slaughter
Claim my house, car, wallet, friends and family too
Steal my heart but not my sons and daughters
Leave me one key to your heart or a reason for being
Lock me out of heaven for a start
Bring me dirty sex 
Sodomize me with sardonic love
Chant names of others in the process
Give me your blessing with a demonic smile
Smother me in lies
Disease my brain
Sing love songs to my tomb
You were my muse
Amuse me

Keith Merritt June 20, 2014 at 7:16 PM All I can say is...WOW !!! Why do I feel so deeply about this poem ? Hey, I tread the dark side of the Farce which we call Life. Great read, Earl !...Keith Merritt Earl Schumacker June 20, 2014 at 7:55 PM Hi Keith, Thank you so much. I appreciate your comments. I try to crystalize elements of real life into smaller elements or compartments. Mostly, I like to entertain the reader. You might enjoy my, "Romancing The Turtle." It is less sardonic but equally enjoyable. Thanks again. Have a great day. Earl
