Premium Member The Shocking Christmas Parade
He heard commotion, "Well Land O'Goshen!! Whatever could it be?
It stirred his notions, and came invading, to wake his fading dreams
As he raised his head, the dreaded clock had invaded peace instead
He dreaded rising, was compromising, while lying in his bed
The tick and tock, it...

Limerick : Once a shocking Norseman crowned Viking

Once a shocking Norseman crowned Viking
Took his flaxen men on an ice outing
They lusted for fat Finns
Knocked walrus and dolphins
Why Arctic now with Vi-wal-phins seething.

Shocking Bushfires
Every man, woman and child really admires 
\The men and women fighting the bushfires 
Some deliberately lit, the worst of all sins 
The fires roar fiercely in the strong winds 
Hundreds of square miles have burnt to the ground 
Poor people watching their houses burning...

SHOCKING!!!!!!!! WHAT? THAT?


Bad taste?
They know not what is at stake
They do as they please
Then later beg for forgiveness
A right sin
And a dismal business

Nothing is shocking anymore
To thump each other
They go to the extremes of bad taste
The exotic of the past
Is now the mundane of today

We can't hide our tears because it's painful
Let us cry,lets the tears drop it can heal the pain

It was like a prepared journey for them to go to heaven
It's sad with their school uniform they got...

A Shocking Sight At Burger King
A Shocking Sight at Burger King

By Elton Camp

What I saw at Burger King the other day
It is sort of hard to find the words to say

It wasn’t a sandwich all filled with fat
Or too much salt--nothing at all like that

Nor was it a shake entirely...

Insulting Shocking Horror
Not many, will ever get, the pleasure,
not many, will ever get, the chance, to be.
Instead one is standing, in the place, of many,
whom for all, fight for, those, to be free. 

Staying in unfamiliar, unwelcome countries,
where one is a target; while there, at the scene.
One...

That night, I stood beneath the tree
as rain was dripping down on me,
then it thundered; lightning struck -
'Ohhh no,' I sizzled, 'just my luck.'...

Premium Member Shocking Pain
My arm hurts, that is well known
The damage it has bestowed
Upon me is very great
Nerve damage shocks me

Russell Sivey

Nerve damage, like the damage I have, does this “phantom pain” in the damaged area; you feel this incredible pain anywhere from 6 seconds to 30 seconds....

Premium Member The Body Possession Horror
It started as a whisper, faint,  
A voice that slithered through my brain.  
Not my own, but just as clear,  
A presence lurking ever near.  

At first, a shudder down my spine,  
A fleeting thought that wasn’t mine.  
Hands...
