Cannibal Poems

Premium MemberThe Vegan Cannibal

Every law enforcement official out on patrol,
was desperate to capture The Vegan Cannibal,
so named from a note left with one of its victims,
leading to a series of murders that terrified every vegan.
It read, "I am a cannibal who does my best to eat healthy, 
and vegans are the healthiest of all my desired meat.
Only a

Hannibal Not Cannibal

I dream to be Hannibal
But my neighbor Cannibal…
Hannibal might be A Failure 
But he`d owned some Tense Tenure:
A Nightmare to Tough Roman,
Some shaking like A Woman… 

I long to be Hannibal
But a good friend, Cannibal,
This trusting for Strange Riches;
His night visits to Witches?
But how would it taste: The flesh?
And - tell us - how would

Cannibal

slave to a cycle of lies
held on so hard i'm paralyzed
living a life as a book already written
the end is here next to the beginning

blood and tears all in my dreams
sweat a little so they know it's me
the feeling of void is familiar
i crossed the world with a dare from a demon

mimic what i see

Animal Tangible With a Cannibal

An Animal Tangible with a Cannibal 

knew an animal
we think can be tangible
with a cannibal 

what we said out loud
about things are always proud
to God have head bowed

heard that a bunch of
Indians who are half assed
were called semi holes

have called home a lodge
ran over in my garage
now need a massage

say it enough times
everyone will believe

Premium MemberWords Will Flood

Words will flood like torrents raging, 
Deep immersed in waters wild;
Languishing in languages 
Of liquid pools of prose,

Each time a laughing mannequin 
Would somehow dare suppose.

They walk along with voice on leash, 
Leading the park with cannibalistic eyes, 
Bending over benches waiting, 
For the next remark.

Together sharing repartee 
For all they may experience 
Between their

Sulfuric acid
 Contact lenses blinded

Pupils dilated as my spinal cord

Premium MemberCannibal Picnic

Foreword: we’re all aware of the ’pot ate oh’ and ‘pert arter’ debate... well, in some English accents (including my own) there is a third version: ‘per tay ter’. I lean toward this pronunciation in this poem... So please don’t throw stones... or pertarters.


Two cannibals went hunting humans one day
Hoping a decent meal might come

Tin Pan

Blood to heaven and blood on the post.
Severed builder's head in the oven.
Slowly cooking to a succulent roast.
Enraptured by the local witches coven.
What happens now is anyone's guess.
His body wanders angrily wanting a job.
Will he communicate with Rudolf Hess?
And delicately turn into a door knob.
Then fly high like a dodo on a rocket.
Singed **** feathers

Purple People Eater Viz Hits Sleep Deprived Cannibal

Began during wee hours
of December first
tooth house sand nineteen
steeply self immersed

within insomnia, hence
sudden creative cloud burst
fingers slower than
fleeting thoughts, I cursed
nonetheless stitched,

doctored and nursed
the following continued
hours later with pursed
lips seriously, silently, and soundly

trying to craft lame poem, the worst
among feeble efforts,
among countless attempts
showcasing, (no rhyme nor reason)
yours truly versed.

Found muss elf unable to easily doze
haint

Egomania

The narcissistic eye ogles itself in the glass;
Which egoistic orgy well paints Man's greed.
His self-elevating smiles mirrors easily prove 
As crude hungers only selfish deeds can feed. 

And so do you still continue to wonder why
Conceited doctors thrive while patients die.
You know the inscrutable reason lawyers grin,
All the way to the bank as grimey outlaws

Premium MemberCannibal Prophets

Prophecy is risky
and peculiar.

Prophets so seldom unveil opportunities
to win resilient integrity
without concomitant risks
of unhealthy failure.

Prophets of booming doom
and gloom
far outweigh voices for Golden Rules
and healthy tipping points
toward organic wealthy Ratios
to thrive opportunity rich
and risk free of threatening less
for any players
and for our working/playing Habitat,

Earth 
and Her interdependent spacetime webbed ecological Universe,
also theologically known as Heaven(s).

Prophecy

Darkness the Cannibal

A breakfast of sunrise,
clear blue sky luncheon,
and a supper of sunset
defeats darkness rising.
 
Shadows remain behind,
lying down buries their existence.

Total darkness is a cannibal 
that feed on lighter shade shadows.

Where the Sea Meets the Sky

At the end of the world where the sea meets the sky,
there's a small strip of land where the mermaids lie.
Where they  chit and they chat, or play and have fun,
and top up their tan in the midday sun.

Now it's rare to see a mermaid, and you may never again,
so to see a whole

Coco the Clown

Coco the clown went sailing one day 
to a holiday destination far far away

Suddenly, the sky went dark and the wind did blow
and the waves beneath his boat did grow and grow

Coco lost his oars as the winds blew and blew 
and he paddled his way with a size 50 shoe
                                                               
Through his telescope he

Cannibal Lies


American Daughters of the Civil War Revolution
are so madly in love with their Bluish-Gray metal sons
Incestuous desires borne of slave tax oppression

Give to Caesar whatever tribute he crown heavy lay on you,
feed three-fifth portions to the hungry publican lions
Let the Den Mother Lying famine devour your children too

Cannibalize every ink spot known self-evident truth,
marginalize any
