Best Dead Man Poems

I shall delete my existence says the dead man
	No more do I breathe	
	No more shall I rant
	Although often I recant

I shall delete all my poems says the loud hen
	No more am I here
	I shall disappear
	Like a child with tuque over head

I shall rescind my tantrums...

Bob had a special talent
That only worked in his men’s store.
He had ‘clothing ESP’.
He knew what his customers wanted…and more.

When customer would come into his store
Bob would invariably say, 
“Hello. I'm Bob. Don’t say a word.
I already know what you need today.”

And he was always...

her sweetness turned to  a fiery storm brewed
a two sitter for the loo

Dead Man Tales
shards of glass pearl the emperor's rise,
his arms embracing upon our sins and lies, 

do not deceive yourself , my friend.
in the twilight of our beings our corruption merges and blends.

there is no pride. no honour.
no love remains in the barren 'morrow.

feeble and...

I am free as a bird
Ready to discover this wondrous world
I am dressed to the nines
Seeking a knight in shining armor

He will be handsome alright
Defending me from life’s lows and sorrows
I shall be his flower, ready to be plucked
Oh my petals shall lust for his...

“Dead Man Walking”


Feeling as if my life is an object that is kicked, torn, separated, squashed
Pieces to be formed into one object, always missing the one piece needed
Eyes searching for the treasure map for the one piece to make me whole
Hands holding up this frail...

Death hides in the curtains as it creeps upon you in the night.
May it find you at your strongest, as it always finds you at your weakest.
Let it come fast like a thief in the night, and let you be blessed. 
Death watches over you...

Unconscious minds, perpetrators of pain,
oblivious to karma they accrue,
continue their feral sadism insane,
until grazed by the magnetic bliss dew;
then love enabled ~ destiny soul drew.
We are insentient to inner light,
being what we are, aglow day and night,
for free will’s chosen not path of wellness,
falling from...

So how can sorrow and scorn be formed  by the tears of a shadow...

Took my newspaper down to the cemetery last week,
Set up my soapbox and I commenced to speak.
I read to them of bombing overseas,
An article about the discovery of a new disease.

I read of a robbery on a downtown street,
And a tale of the homeless with...

There's a dead man hanging near the chapel wall,
from a rope tied around his neck.
They say he got what he deserved,
his life was such a wreck.

He took a life that was not his
despite the consequence.
They caught the guy red-handed
though he denied it then and hence.

key rattle, chain rattle, a keychain rattles 
hanging from my wrist, it sways back
 and forth keeping time as i walk.

keeping the metronome and sundial
 disk near to me, nearer to me still is
 my life so precious to me. 

 now cyclones of hardened...

"stop playing silly games , Your pain is my delight
this tree is where you’ll hang, I plan on that tonight

but darkness has it’s grip tonight

your shadow hears but won’t reply
cause it’s only there to watch you...

I am still alive but am not living,
My life is gone am just existing,
Am still in shock am barely breathing,
Waking up from this dream is all that am wishing,
But this is the reality there is no escaping,
The chains, the bars, am slowly rotting.


I was not...
