Best Off Her Head Poems


Millicent
Millicent Portia Ponsonby-Smyth
Could speak fluent French by the time she was five.
By the age of just eight she was top of her class,
There wasn’t a test that she couldn’t pass.
English and maths she coped with just fine
And quantum mechanics she’d mastered by nine.
Her parents were...

The Sounds of Colours
Thunderous is the sound of Black
darkening the sky and
booming with a loud crack

Soothing is the sound of Green
leaves dancing in the breeze
and making one feel serene

Loud is the sound of Red
blood streaming from someone
screaming off her head

Silence is the sound of Blue
in a clear sunny...

In Love With a Poetess
In Love With a Poetess
_____________________________________
I'm in love with a poetess/
Her words choke my feelings
Lifting me up to the ceilings
The thicker her words,
The faster my emotions move upward
She metaphorically strategize my heart
Turn my love into imagery like art
Exaggerations tearing me apart
_________________________________________
Totally disorder in my vain
Leaving me...

Bang the gavel. Bang it again.

To pronounce Judgment from my seat in the sky.  

It's Judgment Day for my...

Mr Wiz, Munchkin Land
Be so kind to lend a hand...

Cartwheeling cottage? how daft is that
Landed quite safely, all level and flat
Some midget fellow said, who else heard that
I think ‘Wicked Westie’ might just have gone splat

Tin men and lions and blokes full of straw
Red shoes...

Malicious Eulogy
Dry rotted benches all splintered and frail. 
Transparent spirits fill the isles and the air. 
   In the old decrepit church they try to stay seated,
while the Malicious Eulogy is hellaciously completed.
   Out in the graveyard down below, the Demons arise.
The...

Premium Member Gustybot Melly - Not For Refined Folk
This is the story of Gustybot Melly
His really small nose and his very large belly
He'd finished the biscuits, the cake and the jelly
And munched all the crisps like the ones on the telly

And when he was finished young Gustybot Melly
Went down to the shops where...

Premium Member Grandmother Elephants Hat
Grandmother elephant’s sneezes were loud and long.
They came from her gut and they were incredibly strong.
They started the moment she put on her new hat someone said.
You mean the floral arrangement that is plunked down on her head?

There were lilies and cone flowers and roses...

A Dead Rose
The rose grows unbalanced to the right
Because she is deprived of light,

Water is scarce, but when it can run,
The rose soaks it up and leans into the sun,

Her thorns are stunted and endearingly tender,
Though this means they do not have strength to defend her,

Her petals...

Fatal Limerence
She simmered in the warmth of his gaze
Sugar of his lips set her ablaze
Skin quivered at his slightest touch
Changing hues-red, crimson and such

A look at herself now, in the mirror
Skin pale with no trace of color
Sunken eyes set in deep dark rings
Painfully waiting for the...
