Guttersnipes Poems | Examples


Night Soil Man 3

On the streets, mothers grilled  guttersnipes,
   Not to squeeze runny nose and runaway,
   Perchance met by chance,
   Sangfroid song is sang by heart,
   Just an air breath of dare devil juvenile hector,
   A furious broom, soaked inside grub of soil,
   And chased until bedaub with blessed syrup,
   On the contrary, likely dumped the grim green on the
   street,
   While keeping odourful astonishment long after,
   Some swore that ground should open.
   
   May not tell if lives in a hovel or cave, 
   A scary terror fleet flit streets stinking bum of the
   underworld,
   Possessor of all waste, his living chamber are painted
   With umber dung with dumber grey and dummy dawn,
   Shower rumble and wet sickening dapple flower,
   Crawling vine holdsway and stranglehold,
   Blood sucking vampire pods looking unhealthy,
   And bobbing Piranhas in his muddy crystal ball
   aquarium,
   Fed soft wobbly creatures with no nose, nonsense and
   eyesores,
   While Dung Beetles are the beloved pets.

The Inivisible Hand

The invisible hand that rocks the cradle
Also rocks the grave
The invisible hand of Smith’s fable
From a poor hand many gave

Sow the seed of greed
Young indeed
For this is no ordinary cow feed
But that which makes guttersnipes bleed

They suck from those that are dry
They profit even when you die

Away black fly away
Your vices I cannot say
	For God would think:
	“I should shrink
And kick your **** today”

Charlotte says away 
But for pork you stay
	“After he’s done
	Put ‘em in a bun
And squash that spider today”

“Puppet master of death
Give me one more breath
	I wish to be merry 
	Before the Styx ferry
And be buried with my wealth”

The hand is an apparition
But this is a superstition
	For real men drain 
	their pockets in vain
To those in position
