Ego between stints -
narcissistic derelicts
scope the classifieds.
Vanity cracks masked mirrors -
Arrogance need not apply....

A Non-Voter Asks
Educated derelicts,
Professor of fools,
Scholars of crap,
Leaders that moo;

What is then intellect,
If honor is your weight in gold?
Such mineral torch can test,
Molten like poo....

Premium Member A Fitting Prayer
Someday. In old age.
My well-being will be in the hands of: 
Underpaid cutters and x-addicts 
serial texters and sadists
tide pod eaters-assorted derelicts
the odd minister, 
lost Christmas carolers...

I pray to remain somewhat fit....

Hotel Alley
Skid row bums
Dress for no occasion,
Refuse raiders
Need no reservations.

Drug-addicted tenants
Beg for coins and candy,
Deadbeat derelicts
Reside at Hotel Alley.

Gutter renters
Lounge against brick walls,
Vagrant paupers
Rise to no wake-up calls.

Psychotic transients
Cruise dim lit corners
Wayward sons
Fight without honor....

Premium Member Orgy Island
Rich devil fashioned a money net
dangled it over forest of chrysalis
awaiting the emergence of innocents.

Dragged a kaleidoscope of butterflies
off to a hell hole called orgy island.
To fondle their wings for a little awhile
then vomit them to the slag heap pile.

Rich devils -virgin powder on their fingertips.
Will beg and barter for freedom... again.
Karma chants they'll spend their slippery years.
In semen scented metal nets, with other derelicts....
