I do not want your love
unless you know precisely how repulsive I am,
and, knowing it,
find yourself compelled to love me all the more.
Slippery squat salamander squinding,
Sucking, slurping under my sailboat.
Deviously deciding a dindling,
Grotesque gargoyle giants squind your throat!
William.Hogarth did his satire at his desk
he liked to portray the grotesque
Similar to Dickens,but in ink& paint
he lampooned people who were *****&quaint
Another farfetched story from Helen Louise
Bizarre, fantastique, grotesque if you please
Eccentric and strange, decidedly *****
I ran out screaming, for embellishers I fear
My naive picture of Burlesque
Some lovely ladies junoesque
Slapstick humor risky
Dancers rather frisky.
Mom would consider it grotesque.
For Miranda's contest
won an hm
Wacko mind born confused
With grotesque ugly face
Web of deceit her game
Worshipping evil eyes
Wicked soul casting spells
Wordless wrathful weaver
Wounding beautiful hearts
Touch me reflection
let me feel the nothing
in your grotesque
moulded water undulates
shadows swims
the amber fades
something in the drifted lights
and beauty finds the shape
CIRCUS
Exiled from native homes
Slave creatures imprisoned,
Forced to do tricks,
Tightrope lions, clapping seals.
Elixir of grotesque clown disguises
Drab animal lives.
While Trump Did Ware Diaper
We saw Trump while he wore a diaper,
Looking grotesque being a big griper;
When near,
Pain in rear;
Wherever he has been is always hyper.

calling the dark, dismal, fear involved, painfully grotesque, cemetery, she’s still gone

Galactic blood red sky
Gathers for Halloween
Goulish grotesque, zombies
Gross witches and black cats
Goblins, plus gruesome ghosts
Ghastly, grim, while groaning
Guarantees goosebumps.
Gates of hell were opened
Guttural groans were heard
Grotesque ghouls overhead
Gowned in gossamer gauze
Gnarled fingers reached for me
Guilefully, they took flight
Gory night of bloodshed
Behind the veil of beauty,
reside darkness
waiting like lover
peering through the windows,
counting the ticking of clock
cometh the hour,
transported from illusion
to grotesque,
all beauty decay.
A Glandular Strangler We Should Deter
Greeted general area that is glandular,
When he started becoming a strangler;
Grotesque glands;
Spastic hands,
Who we should be sure to try to deter.
Jim Horn
The teacher's feet flew up on the desk,
Striking the class as rather grotesque:
It caused quite a schism,
As she'd just escaped prison!
Was this a school-room or house of burlesque?
Grotesque
tall
neurons
sprout into the sky
screaming anarchic omniscience
Green
gold
pulses
in
incandescent eruptions
Hot
humorless
jagged
rocks cut through
omniscient anarchy
Profound Dazzlement!
Icicles formation. And
dripping as sun shines.
Brushing off the grotesque gloom
Inspiration, I oft zoom.
gigantic girlish ghouls gathered at Gate’s gazebo
glabrous ghouls glistening grotesque globs of gloom
gothic goldbricking good-for-nothing gossips on the go
green-eyed grandstanding grifters, guests of green groom.
What's something
really gross
you've seen lately?
For me,
it was a toothless old lady
on a bus stop bench,
gumming Cheetos she first
softened up
in a paper cup of water,
her mouth and chin
bright orange.
Caricature is a picture, description, or imitation
of a person in which certain striking characteristics
are exaggerated that will create a comic or grotesque
effect.
Capture rapture caused by a caricature.

I pray for you;
for I am nasty.
I pray for you;
for I am mean.
I pray for you;
for i am grotesque.
I pray for you;
for I am demented.
i pray for you;
for I am horrific.
I pray for you;
in hopes that you pray for me.
My heart a grotesque thing with teeth,
And its eyes pale to the shadow of the moon.
While the still nights air reeks of its stench,
Lust, love and all emotions, are but strings,
Weaving, it out of my bosom and into seclusion.
Crisscrossed
your cat's eye
and I pray
you anesthetize me
Now.
Before I speak
Up and stumble
onto this
ridiculousness.
Far fetched and
grotesque is this
self-afflicted
ignominy.
Dismissal, readiness
without a backpack.
Gothic creatures of old
gaze down from their ledges
glaring at unseen threats.
Grotesque legends of stone
garner my attention
garish symbols ward off
ghoulish evil demons.
