Why Hello, I am Danger
I am a stiletto in the shadows, ready to slit your throat
Should you gloat about laws I broke
I am precariousness in a dress
Peril, hazard, and risk, I'm menace sitting on a fence
I will take you places you've never been
I'll tell you lies and make you believe in sin again.
I will make you comfortable
And then you shall fall ill
A demons day in madness kissed - still
Danger is my poison, Danger is my pill
Taunting you, haunting you
Daring you to take that terrifying step
Take a chance, hold your breath
If no one's looking - spin the wheel - make the deal
Mistress Death will tell you - kill to win - heh he heh
You guessed it Dangerous.
Riskiness and distress are best friends - a hot mess
With endangerment, there is entanglement
Both factors are a possible part of the experience
Mordacity, depravity, and the unsavory
All of these odious and delicious - found in the essence of Danger
Dubious unrest, a fear fest test, a chaotic crest
A mischance of a tense whisper portrayed as a treasonous event
Hellbound or heaven-sent
Just remember - it's me Danger
And I am Dangerous
And you fearless - Your soul yearns for me....
I miss those days
Yet, I give praise
Memories take me to a place
Reminding of safety and care
Dad's quiet strength was always shared
Leaving endangerment, no space
Reminding of safety and care
God’s amazing grace surrounds me
I miss you so, but now you're free
Dad's quiet strength was always shared
I miss those days
Unspeakable joy left behind
My hero referred to as dad
I cry sometimes, no peace I find
Yet, I give praise
Yet, I give praise
I miss those days

The Blobfysh
Blobfysh Blobfysh your ways are veiled
All efforts to comprehend have failed.
People think you’re just a blob,
But what you really are is made by God.
In deep waters you abide
But scientists take you inside
You truly are a mystery,
Can you reveal it all to me?
Why so slimy, why so squat?
You can bend where I cannot.
You are a fish who is discrete,
Living where you live is a feat.
Your existence is on the brink,
Your dullish grey and your pink.
Most of you is still unknown,
Endangerment is clearly shown.
Blobfysh Blobfysh you are fat;
Why would you be made like that?
In disguise you’re beautiful,
So please, tune out the lying world.
Blobfysh Blobfysh your ways are veiled
All efforts to comprehend have failed.
People think you’re just a blob,
But what you really are is made by God.
Any slide of litany,
and random errant currency,
the sleeping,
the provision and providence,
and then ...
So then there's endangerment,
and the policemen-
then there's pinnacle's of the ages of indifference...
They said in a small circular figure that this is not our place,
when it really is the only thing we love,
as a whole,
our favorites draw us in close,
yet we don't provide them with much,
just...promise.
What If My Beauty
How do I enter my poem into Beauty Contest?
I thought that all beauties had to be bathing.
What if my beauty was to run abundant?
Me and my poems people thought were repugnant
And always on other Soupers I had relied
On ways all of my poems could be beautified.
Use articulate adjuctives and each adverb
Do eliminate all of the things that disturb
And cause much mental endangerment
Drank too much wine that did ferment.
So sorrowful to others my poems may seem
Could never exist or be found in a dream
Why in much sorrow have to be drowned?
Before you forget write each poem down.
Beauty exists in each eye of the beholder
As they grow up and become much older
Some thoughts to you they may occur
All my beauty had become one big blur.
By many each of my poems have been read;
Over and over all of my prayers I have said;
If beauty was found in my poems must surmise
Will be pulverized when presented with Pulitzer Prize.

Fatherhood won't get him down
He'll not dress like a clown
Designer jeans more his style
All the while caring for a child
Into the store to swipe some jeans
Not getting caught part of his scheme
Baby boy snuggled up real tight
Close to daddy his great delight
Daddy grabs a Chap's shirt
No way that he'll hit the dirt
In the baby's carrier jeans slips
From the store planning to rip
A detective saw him from afar
Drew in closer to grab without mar
Daddy realized he'd been spied
On his instincts he'd relied
Took off running from the store
Into six lane traffic engines roar
Police nabbed the irresponsible man
Long before he'll see his child again
This was on the news on Saturday morning..
The officer said that it was one of the worse or maybe the worse
case of child endangerment that he had ever seen.
Raw,
Endangerment,
Dictator.
< life's bare essentials
can become some great assets
in dires time need
predator or prey
endangerment of species
remains that of man

G.L. All
That was something unbelievable to see.
It was the epitome of irresponsibility.
What a stupid thing to do by far!
You left your children sitting in a hot car.
You stopped at the casino hoping to win.
The kids were too young, so they could not go in.
You said you were going to be only an hour or so.
However, you spent more than five hours in the casino.
You were grossly irresponsible without any doubt.
A locksmith opened the car to get your kids out.
The summer temperature was hot enough to fry.
Inside a hot car, someone can easily die.
Without clocks, you can lose track of the time.
Child endangerment is such a hideous crime.
With the proliferation of casinos, this is unfortunately becoming a common scene.
There's never a quiet moment in this orphanage of lost thoughts.
Every night I meander into group therapy alone.
I wonder which lost soul I'll save tonight,
And by the way, who am I?
AM/FM contraband,
Broadcast to the city of the already damned.
Broken bottles shipwrecked again,
Driftwood diaries left to repent.
I never knew what I thought you knew.
Barren, vast, and devoid,
Careful in my reckless endangerment.
Rose colored gas mask of years of "sucking it up."
Prepared for nothing much,
But hoping for the impossible.
What do I do now?
When Once Upon A Time begat The End.
