Short Evil Twin Poems

Oh Larry,
Don't get harried-
Lack of sleep you say?
Keeping your evil twin at bay?

Don't try to cheat,
we all know you are just too sweet
To be an annoying creep!...

The idea came and sat and stayed.
Smiled at me serious and staid.

I ignored it for a week.
‘til it began to speak.

My listening self was eager to begin.
But what would we do with my evil twin?...

There's a doppelganger that looks just like me
Everyone has an evil twin, mine's nasty as can be
But I save the day
With my charming ways
Not to brag but I'm the charmingest from “see to see”...

In this life full of sin
I thought of ways to win
Where do I start
Where do I begin
Taking time to search within
See me with a worldly grin
Two sides a evil twin
Pain brought by kin
Here though thick and thin...

Envy is a curse,
with the darkest shadow

All yearning left unsettled
—in a greenish cast

Jealousy its evil twin,
beyond veracity’s purview

Coveting the stolen torches
—of all darkness past

Envy is a curse
  with the darkest shadow

Its yearning left unsettled
  in a greenish cast

Jealousy its evil twin
  beyond veracity’s purview

Coveting the burning torches
  —of all darkness past

Unleash the darkness!
The shadow beside me
My evil twin!
This devil inside me…

Peculiar ways,
Our similar curves
The demon in the dark
Ruthless and bad nerves

Right versus wrong
A strong coercion.
Conscience in mind
Causes trouble and friction

My symbolic deception
Heaven and hell
Like fire and water
It packed me so well...

Harley Quinn,
Harlequin.
Evil twin.
Don't cross her.
You won't again.
She uses a Slugger.
Louisville bat.
The Joker dumped her.
A very Mad act.
Ms. Quin's not chagrin.

She runs a Rhino.
A big Sixty D.S.
Was in on that deal.
To end the Enchantress.
She's been there and back.
No pretense yet a fact.
Harlequin is a genius.
She'll easily escape prison.
It Seem's as Ms. Quinn
Sees with split vision....

the patched up scarecrow has the saddest smile
You can find him at the corner of the ten foot mile
I wondered what happened to this poor little creature.
He is horrid-looking, a frightfully pathetic feature.

Grandma’s eyes were slipping when she made him.
He is lucky to have a smile said my evil twin.
I sometimes sit and watch this scarecrow toss and spin.
Feeling sorry that she made him during her dementia whim....

At first you’re here, now you’re not here.
You’re on a time schedule, I see you every so and so.
Its the same reoccurring, non-assuring facade of
emotion; logic’s evil twin wrapped in sugar whispering sweet
nothings.
All the while stirring up episodic dreams:
When it is good, time is ignored.
When it is bad, time is watched.
Acceptance sets in.
Just as quick as it came, fate claims
its name again. And the good and bad become olden times.
I hit rewind 
At first you’re here...

Kill this monster
growing in me
his threat to kill
makes me believe 
i'm all alone
the room is spinning
it starts to groan
i know i'm not alone
kill this thing
let me breathe
his arms hold tight
speaks to me in the night
but you can't see
his eyes blaze right through me
his grin swallows my body
you can't hear 
he whispers in my ear
"Just hold tight,
I'll find you in the night."
kill this disease 
creeping over me
crawling in my skin
my ugly evil twin
kill this monster...
Don't
Let
Him
Win....
