Keefer, the Rabid Dingo
Once there was dingo, rabidly mad as he could be
who thought he was a Bruce of a man by how he spoke
But no man would call him their 'mate,' for you see...
he was a mongrel dog who pretended to be a bloke

The dingo who called...

Rabid Believers
The track marks are exposed, so you’ll have to look twice without getting caught. Your mind starts to wonder what it is he’s been shot full of, Cocaine?  Gasoline and formaldehyde?  Fabric softener or blue ne high. You’ll have to swallow hard because...

As Deep Darkness Its Rabid Cloak Around Me Spread


As deep darkness its rabid cloak around me spread
Dark shadows raced to their images thus display
They that were so bleach white, those old skeletal dead
Thought to play with me and have their damnable way
Yet, my father had...

Premium Member A Rabid Beast
A rising river makes a rumbling sound
foaming at the mouth like a rabid beast.
And it swiftly slithers over its banks
like a ravenous snake sensing a feast.

Its musty odor saturates the air,
forewarning wildlife of its arrival.
And frightened animals flee its advance,
stampeding as they run for survival.

Quenching...

Rabid Curs
The war-dogs chew at the throat of Man,
Killing as canines can,
With drooling jowls and fetor that fouls
The air, with harrowing warrior-howls--
They herald the End with their yelps and yowls....

all get to work late tonight.

Premium Member Rabid Raven
sheep sleep surreptitiously 

spiders spin shredded silken seances

song birds sulk soporifically 

rabid ravens rave rapturous rhapsodies


capriciously caught in clangour

I die dire deceptive dreams

tepid tears tear through torment

viscous vapours vacate venom

pus pelts my pitiful pillow

oozes omnipotent oblivion


alliterations alight anger

freeze fervent fear

reiterate raucous refusal

ruminate reverberate rancid rile


I...

Bark of a Rabid Dog
A chameleon can change his name many times
But it won't free him from the guilt of his crimes
He hides behind fake names
To play malicious games
A gutter snipe who'd dance for nickles and dimes

From keyboard he types a harassment and threat
His pathetic appetite for evil is...

Watching a Rabid Raccoon
stumbled upon a rabid raccoon
(posted on youtube)
recorded by some family
huddled inside their kitchen
looking out the sliding glass door
on a sunny afternoon &
could not make it through a minute &
thirty seconds,
the way the animal 
so beautiful
stood there twitching,
with its eyes drunken &
the idiots holding the camera
commenting
without...

The World Has Gone Rabid
Whatever happened to Jansports and Tevas 
-By the fire side and courage the cowardly dog 
The unending episodes of the famous five 
-And ice pellets we used to pick In the rains .

Whatever happened to good deeds,
and where did all the good people go ?
A...

Rabid
    Faint recognition; 
     ambiance, for hire,
    this job is precarious,
     but can she steal the show?
    Holding the position;
     mistress of high wire,

Sweetie, those thoughts of yours could kill. Are you working towards genocide or complete annihilation? Trap your thoughts in a cage and never feed them again. Let them turn rabid on their own....

Premium Member It Is My Impression
I would just like to say
that it is my impression
that longer hair
and other flamboyant affectations
are male dominant immersions
from sadly dull camouflage
into the birthright
and left
of his trans-pangenderal sex.

And I would also like to say
that it is my impression

That wars
and bombs
and other ballistic
bad depressions
are far more likely
