This Horrific Poem
First of all, forget the rhyming - it's not gonna happen.
Or - if it does, by happenstance, be mildly surprised.
No loft or glory here be found - AR!
Now, like a pirate I do sound.
Dammit!
I promised you no rhymes.

A hazard spun from occupation;
a rhyme, a rhythm:...

The horror of dreams
Crashing and causing me flight
I saw him fall
Like the crashed plane

I had a hope
That of waking up
In blinking of an eye
The horror of reality

Men dressed in foggy
Singing an unknown elegy
His face upside turned
In his only chattel

Adieu Amis curiae
A tragedy without raison...

HORRIFIC HIGHWAY

Driving at the speed allowed
On Highway N17, traffic ploughing,
Zig zagging, racing, and over taking
Accidents in the making,
Motor bikes screaming past,
Driving fanatically fast,
Showing off thinking it’s a blast,
A terrifying scene,
Spades, The queen
Of death on the road,
A taxi collides with a
Garbage truck,
Taxi overloaded, what
Incalculable bad luck,...

Or have I been terrific
Be more specific.

Distance Is Horrific
Rose cut letters
and lines on useless trains,
Cardboard cities
and coffee cut blankets,
At the end of leaving you
I saw you once before,
how incredible
to see you again,
some time...
Stance of bleep calls
ruffled admission
a million windows a go...
Doorways will light up forever
through the wooden combat I go
to open and pass
back...

Horn Horrific Haiku
found natural flow
now where will I have to go
who would tell me so

my poems are greatest
unless may be a sadist
read my poems latest

they slowly dissolved
what around had they revolved
with poems are involved

reality stark
either daylight or in dark
read my poems in park

a blanket statement
make sure you...

Lynn's Horrific Experience
A noise startled her, and thinking of cats, she didn't bother to look;
it turned into a groan, a scratching noise, a squirrel loud munching.
She ran to the kitchen and jumped on a high chair holding a book...
" What could that thing be? " It emitted...

Prolific used to refer primarily
    to people, animals and plants
  Those who produced abundant offspring
    like kittens, puppies, and ants  

  Today we hear about prolific authors

Premium Member Horrific Climate Trends
Any difference between feeling horrified, on one hand,
and disenchanted terrifying thoughts, on the other,
seem connected to punishing error and folly in others
unlike our self-righteous ego identities
trained to settle for a Win/Lose anti-communal
anti-trusting world.

Such disparities are even less wise when paranoid
and manic,
a difference in degree
between tragically...

Horrific
Cognitive disruptions becoming commonplace
In a world where decay is perversely normalized
A society so infatuated with chasing
the next dopamine fix
Fiending for a superficial recognition

The days of beneficial discourse
And genuine regard for the well-being of others
Have withered away into a most malicious wind
One that carries good intentions...

    Hark, hark, thus the lark
      Bark, bark, from in the dark

    No dreaded sounds of killer sharks

Flesh That Virtue Takes
The glass chatters, clanks, and shatters
As it hits the ground
But makes no sound
The only thing heard is the
Screams of pain
As I get hit into the glass
Blood everywhere
Pain unbearable
The ripping of flesh
Cracking of bones
Screams of pain
Yet no one hears the screams
No one to save me
From this...

Death
The man staring back at me
I knew what he’d done
He killed my friends
He killed my family
We had lost our battle

What would I do?
I knew what was coming,
That dark forsaken fate
That soon would surround me

For I was locked
In this mans chains
Of Cell 25
The day that my...

Birds and Seeds
I received a bag of mystery seeds in the mail
I didn't know what to do with them so,
I took them outside to be sorted out
When some birds swopped down, grab 
The seeds then flew away, three days later
Some giant birds flew in my yard an...
