Fatal Poems

Fatal Shots

They rang out clear on the spine of the night,
Smashing stained glass of basement churches
And disembowelling pots of truths.
Aiming at the tendons of hate from
Lone-eyed monsters,
The slugs, flaming and fertile,
And with sparks of racial rage,
Penetrate America's gloom
With a boom.

A Fatal Wound

I hold my heart in my hand
carved out off my chest with a machete,
My bleeding heart still beats!

FATAL SURPRISE

    DoctorDoctor, doctor, how did the operation go?

– But what doctor, what nonsense! Look, I'm Saint Peter!

FATAL ALLURE

Drowning in this abyss, 
I lay down flat after a long thrive. 
I sink down deep, I strangely feel alive, 
Always into taking those chances, 
I admit I was a bit naïve. 
The pain numbs all the high, 
it numbs all the excite. 
It’s intoxicating how alluring this game is, 
I slip through the depths

Fatal graveyard friendship

Fatal graveyard friendship

On the last day of my human life, I was sitting on a tomb in a cemetery, in an incredible garden of death
(In an outer district of the city.)
Just sitting, nothing special. Meditation, contemplation, thinking about death and life’s matters, and God
It was a beautiful day in September, windy atmosphere, the rain just

FATAL DIVORCE

They were the definition of marriage
My parents' union seemed flawless
Their bond was built on courage
In their hearts, love was fearless.

But that night, the thunder struck
I saw a broom and a hen weaponized
I saw the danger anger and trust provoked
The story of their divorce, never fully realized.

Their separation to me was scary
Though I wasn't in anyone's

The Fatal Attraction

Oh the fatal moment of us
That enticing eyes and broad thighs
The soft voluptuous round lips
The soft garden in the front - 38 
The stylish back well formed

You are the epitome of gorgeousness
You are the queen of kamasutra
I am lost in your curvy body
Your neck is so smooth
Your hands are like a baby cute

My passion knows

Fatal Kiss

Time ticks away as a new dawn strokes your splitting heart,
with your mood swings re-writing my emphatic poetical art.
Although the fear of your demons may grip my soul
I am now immune to all the personalities you can't control.
I am lost without the warmth of your crystalline eyes, 
so let your tears implode upon me under

That Fatal Year

2023 brought sorrow that broke me. Death defeated thoughts who say we’re unshakable, stronger than death. We want to think the end, for us – for our people, is inconceivable. Yet, death calls and we must answer. It refuses to be snubbed. This year brought more personal dealings with death than I care to remember!

Foreseen Fatal Accident

I feared for The Soon Traveling Fire,
When I saw who was going to drive:
Jack, who did thrice of men's lives deprive,
He himself lucky to be alive;

Now, with a left leg fracture does strive 
And Lord God knows that's no way to thrive

Kept I trembling for the moving five;
If I were among them, bound to dive
When

A Fatal Flaw

Home invaders
Climbed the fence;
Huffed,
Puffed,
And blew the windows in,
Suddenly, they're inside a mansion.
They came prepared
With large duffel bags.
They grabbed all they could -
A family heirloom,
Jewelry,
Knickknacks, etc.
Then one walks out to the balcony
And a caged parrot locks eyes
With the stranger,
Bows its head,  thinking - 

"Please, don't take me, too! I don't want to part with Mr.

Poem For a Painted Mouth

Her mouth drawn in carmine
paints malice temptation to
my wishes...
if she calls me in smiles
I shudder with pleasure
anticipation...
that fatal mouth
hallucinate my
sanity, the
powerful sensual catalyst... !

Fatal Attraction

Let us call a spade a spade, 
    You are making feeble excuses for your mistakes.
    My respect you must earned,
    All the trust between us you have burned.
    Playing Russian roulette with my feelings,
    I am sick and tired
