Dramedy Poems


Black Snowflakes

black snowflakes on the wall
dash away, dash away, dash away all
now there is a bullet in the center of a shopping mall

black snowflakes in a dream
the medicinal needles of my fingertips makes her cream
i'm breathing in too much cold air, and i am loosing steam

black snowflakes in the ocean
bloody teardrops substitute as an odd sort of love potion
the vomit spit is now the main catalyst for every speck of motion

black snowflakes are now diamonds in the crown
the throne has lost its meaning and is now drenched in the dramedy of its frown
a scythe is now my royal scepter, and i am a peasant descending further down

This Stew Tastes Funny

I personally like to use the more established dramatic processes, but feel free to use your own version of comedy!

Dramedy (serves the whole family!)

Take the character, drive them headfirst
into a community of oppositions
that inexplicably attract,
cue a flurry of activity, sprinkled lightly.
Leave no weaknesses un-attacked.
When the conflict begins to rise,
place them in roles reversed,
have them recognise
that conflict yields no prize.
Leave the melting pot to cool
until each moralistic monologue ends with cheap slapstick verse.

HAIKU STRAINS 1


Busy feet meet
On Monday streets;
No time to greet

~~~~~~~~~


Crowded avenues
Distant faces;
Private To-Do lists

~~~~~~~~~


Wet dawn
Overnight rain;
Messy footpaths

~~~~~~~~~


Blank faces
Anxious distractions;
Too much data

~~~~~~~~~


TV dramedy
Laughter riots;
Good medicine here
