Limerick : Once a Great Doubter climbed Jack’s Bean Stalk

  for the raped 5-year-old Indian girl next door

Once a Great Doubter climbed Jack’s Bean Stalk
Cried : « For what Crime 5-year-old was debauched ? »
He got no true hearing
Slid down no more doubting
Now stalks...

What a long day, so sore are my feet.
I feel so worn out, oh am I beat.
     I see you've returned home
     and you think you're all alone.
Think I'll skip, brushing my teeth.
I just want to lay...

Don’t let the worms touch the brittle petals,
Just blow them to my empty palms
As gentle dream. I can no longer settle
Be lonely as a leafless stalk.

And coltsfoot not roses,
Just coltsfoot surround me
And nothing comes close
As close as a dream comes.

It rains all over our roofs...

I can not run from his history or dodge a best forgotten past,
I'm constantly reminded of his flings that did not last,
You can run but I've learned you can never hide....
I get swept into his embrace but pulled out by a historical tide...

Oh you stalk of corn,
How withered you look now,
Stripped of honour and full of scorn
Oh you stalk!, now you bow,
 you have remained standing only
 as a provender for stalls and fodder

Once in full bloom, you were the
 cynosure of the farmer
Paying homage to you...

Turn up the lights
Fold up the bed
Turn up those voices
outside my head
Lay out for me
Feed me with lies
Just hold me up, your patron saint
Do matronize me

'Cause I can't make you stalk me
if you won't
You can't make your mind think something
it don't
Here in my light,
in these...

I’m gonna stalk you

Follow you around

And harass you

I’m gonna

Show up at your house

I’m gonna

Show up at your place of work

I can’t seem to get my mind

Off of you and your personality

I can’t seem to turn the other way

I want to love you

I want to hold...

You pulled us apart,
To try and bring you two together.
I’m not going to let you,
You aren’t going to make it.
Just shut up and stalk off.
He’s mine,
All mine.
And he always will be,
Because we’re getting married,
And there’s nothing you can do. 
We’ll love each other for eternity.
So...

A smile cracks my face
can you hear the joy?
Delight wreathes eyes
hidden from your view
fullness blossoms 
because of you.

There’s a bounce in my step
can you see the joy?
Longing be not the villain
but the harbinger of delight
when unhidden from your sight.

Because of you
fullness blooms
on the winter stalk...

Stalking the weakest prey
Before you, your broken hopes lay
Praying that they will not stay
To haunt one more weakest day

Submissive in all your mistakes
Poison in us and among us
All around and inside us
against the wall, the window breaks

Far from grace and poise
Away from the ambiguous noise
Taking...

Don’t stalk my territory again
Stealing my sleep
Making me cry in vain
Which under servitude you can no longer keep

Whether all the weapons on Earth you deploy
To cull your desire
To employ
Ruse, fuse or fire

In a bid to finish
My ambition
To diminish
The mission on which I embark with passion

To...

Like a leaf stalk
Forever 
I will hold 
You-
My leaf blade....

My garden plots my demise 
Haunts me like a living soul
The care I give is appreciated, yet expected
Each time I weed takes a toll

When it's time to prune
All hell breaks loose
The clods grow stones to throw and wound
The ears of corn hear all that I...

Following down the sidewalks
Watching from my backyard,
Everywhere I go, he stalks
Waiting to catch me off guard

Even in the safest places
My town, my school, my home,
The shape of his masked face is
Hiding wherever I may roam

Lock yourself into a closet
Behind dresses and blue jean,
Fight back and...

In the darkness, I am shapeless.
Formless I slink through the gloom.
Witness, for a moment, death near.
Your breath is deep in its tomb.
In the darkness, you are helpless,
Senseless and fearful forlorn.
Blind to what’s within deep shade,
Displayed in expression adorned.
Your heart beats quicker in darkness,
Your hardness and...
