my aunt loves her leeches
She was an advocate of blood-sucking leeches, my aunt
A wish to be tortured, she would gladly and quickly grant
Her leeches are ready; they love sucking human blood
I would rather jump into a tornado or be carried off in a flood.

Speeches and leeches
Speeches peaches,
Just like leeches,
Sucking my blood,
Sucking my nards,
It’s really hards,
Just like a rock,
They’re in my sock!

Exsanguinating Leeches
Exsanguinating leeches
Rich cream on ripened peaches,
Or Riviera beaches,
tickling the ears it reaches
Exsanguination is to bleed
A practice we no longer need
Now, Coumadin can quickly speed
The death of rats, poison indeed!
Like Sisyphus, his rocky hill
Now Eliquis, without the thrill
For those with fibrillations still
‘Tis clots, not rocks, the bitter pill
So now I think to bleed a leech
Might

By practicing doctors
Glad that is over?

You hate mother America
but gorge from her plate
and gulp from her cup.
Then smash the tablets over her head
and blame her for not bleeding enough
is
enough...leeches.

Leeches In Life Waters
God made the earth with life waters 1
For ages, waters flowed in each spring
Each human had his own spring
Respected was the neighbor’s spring
Up and down ran the waters
At the start life waters were pure 6
And humans desired their lure
They wanted to taste the liquid
Just for the waters were limpid
Strange rains brought

Leeches
I get haunted by things around me,
Especially the leeches on my mind,
They cling to me until I have no power,
They creep up on me from behind,
Will they ever let go of me!?
I guess it's only myself that can flick them to flea,
It's time I save myself now and discard from any negative identity,
Haunted memories of

Leeches In Power
LEECHES IN POWER
As old as the sand on the earth
So do I in power.
All colours leech on power
The dark loves me more.
Either you want me or not I will never flow in your direction
Those that want me to flow; frozen in their graves.
I decide when to flow; no fellow dares me.
Longing in

Sapping away all my dreams into the darkness in which they roam.
