Best Attacker Poems

Now this is my definition of love
It's much like wrestling in the mud
You get down and dirty
And say things quite flirty
Then it all comes together with a thud

You scream out bloody murder together
Promise your undying love forever
Roll over and whisper
The name of her sister
Then you...

The man on the porch looks out
over his property and towards his daughter.
Nervousness seeps through her plum-dark flesh.
Each eye contact signposts a wicked meditation.
Women are voiceless in those days, yielding to
males and manipulated Bible verses.
Poverty and childbirth loiters the screen.
White men protect segregation and Black...

she had enough curiosity to kill a thousand cats but not about sex

she awoke to him on top of her AGAIN then a quick blow to the head

she had been stricken temporarily dumb

I read about a person
Who, within a city park,
Attacked a woman and her dog
At 6 a.m. (still dark).

He was rooting through the garbage,
Yelling crazily, before
Tossing urine in a bottle,
Then proceeded to do more…

With a stick he hit the woman,
Next her dog across the snout,
Which a...

Pleading with me for full control
There’s a fire burning beyond within
Suffocating me in all my sin
There’s a revolution brewing beneath and between
All I have ever known and seen.

At times my life feels like a dream,
At times my...

How the housefly gets attracted to organic decay
and an infant child traces the voice of its mother
are nothing compared to the intense attraction
Michelle and I possess on the guy owning not a strand of hair on his head
but is in command of all forms of...

The Fall of the Onomatopoeian Empire

By Elton Camp

Onomatopoeia is a literary device
Appeal to the senses is quite nice

The comics often show us how
By using biff and bang and pow

The telephone loudly does ring
The cash register goes ca-ching

Mary’s heels clacked on the floor
Cook clanged the pans...

Escape the Matrix

Escape from madness (Lesson23)  
 
 
Attack on freedom
Attack on war
Attack on cancer
Attack all we deplore

The attacker is hiding

He betake himself to his room
Does a clear blue sky betokening a bright day?
His motivating memory needs to retrace the day,
The reverberating revival and the doom.
In the boulevard, sloppy and slippery
Derelicts yet living on the streets
Where are the members of the expedition?
Buster! Prominent players on...
