Night
Dark, clear
Creeping, thundering, scaring
The people should be scared to roam at this time
Never ending, deadly, sneaking
Quiet, maniacal...

An elephant bee zoomed around my head
I had maniacal thoughts, wished him dead. 
His buzz annoying
Never enjoying
Traitorous roses loved him, turning red....

Sick slick trick playing down on you

Mesmerized your eyes with keys to nothing

The miracle of the Xanadu

Surpassed all maniacal distraction...

A graceful young lady named Kate
would shimmy and leap and gyrate.
Her copious whirling,
maniacal twirling
caused Kate to shed half of her weight....

the drone of gossip fills the lunchroom
maniacal laughter bursts occasionally
I eat alone on the other side of the wall
preferring to do anything else
writing poetry, drawing cartoons, loving being me....

annoying rooster crows at four
maniacal or just plain stupid?
it is the afternoon, genius.

yes, I am the neighbor shouting at the rooster.
So who is the bright one?
Want to hear my imitation crowing?...

She was reluctant to take on a pig-faced warrior that day.
Had heard they are vicious, and they do not dally or play.
The sow said, “come on!” in the most arrogant maniacal way.
She turned tail and ran toward the outskirts that day....

Existent justification
denial exceeds reason

egotistical and maniacal

golden tongue 
forked intellect 

controlling and powerless

higher self 
potential serenity
 
eden slumber 
conscious oblivion

mortal, healing, cavernous
self...

Flame throwing flower held by a scream,
Maniacal laughter, dark fantasy;
Blood on the face of a clown
fresh smile an imprint of a frown;
Nothing is at all what it seems; 
Trick me, treat me
by all means, creep me;
Blessed Be, Blessed Samhain....

It has been stated in the witchery world
That the head top notch with will be in red
I have an inkling this book is true

So here is one who has her own goblins.
They are green and maniacal.
I stare, fascinated.

Before
I
run
like
Hell….....

Tell me your stories.
How fickle they are.
Bring me your troubles.
As I bandage defined scars.
Ruthless friend,care only for self.
Put my feelings upon your shelf.
What more can one give?
Impossible trait.
Deal yourself your own maniacal fate....

Giant teeth angrily ripping flesh
Maniacal laughter, internal screaming
Irregular heartbeats 
Insane night terrors 
Paralysis and yet…
Silent screams coming from somewhere

Siarska ran with crimson teeth held high
A laugh so maniacal the wolves jump back
Lurking into the shadows Siarska
Naked and wild no clothing no restraint
Just an animal come to life by a witches hand
On a bloody sacrifice came Siarska
The dead girl jogging...

His left eye was plotting
Taking over the other eye would be easy
But what about the nose and mouth?
Would they go without a fight?

His insurrection was a success
He telephoned the other overbearing eyes
Come on down! He said.
We are ready now to take over the world....

She looks unassuming, dangerously normal
Least we forget she is a maniacal author
There are tornadoes and earthquakes in her mind
She keeps them quiet when we are around
But we know they are there when her thoughts meet paper
She gives me a bit of a smile, and I hear a monsoon coming...

open heart
willing hands
happiness abounds

maniacal feelings
lithium helps
sheer sadness now

high on life
whizzing around room
love for strangers

cutting begins
worthless feelings
life seems hopeless

joyfulness out of bounds
entertaining love for life
falling to doom...

A dandelion in the wild
How small and swayable I am
Your breath a gust of wind
Blowing my mind away
And I am maniacal
In your embrace
In the heat of your arms
Around my shoulders
A passion so hot
I need no fireplace
On these wintry days
Just your presence
To take my shivers away...

Comic
faces smiling.
Maniacal laughter
echoing deep inside the head.
Terror.


This poem was inspired by Cindy Sherman's Untitled #425, a chromogenic color print from 2004.  This print was seen at the Dallas Museum of Art, which is currently hosting a Cindy Sherman retrospective until June 9, 2013....

Psychotic pain rips her flesh from bone
Leaving her ragged skeletal shadow brutally
Assaulted by maniacal horror imperceptible to the mentally normal
Temptation conquers her and she welcomes serene death with poisonous applause, gas her invisible
Hangman’s noose-forever silencing her...

At the sound of the bell,
the boxing arena trembles;
the crowd's maniacal roar
explodes as a thunderclap.

Blood-crazed predators,
these gloved gladiators;
fiercely glaring, rushing,
breathing murderous rage.

Altar of wealth, vanity,
hurried sign of the cross,
hastily mumbling to God
of mercy...a bloodied prayer!...

crazy sanity
excited placidness
terrible wonderfulness
enthusiastically down

mountainous nothingness
unexpected anticipations
insanely normal
conscientiously uncaring

empathetic bullying
horrible kindnesses
guilty innocence
joyful depression

bipolar normalcy
conflicted understandings
crawling highs
maniacal lows...

We will all be on a committee and we will all agree on everything.
I could not stop laughing.
Not just a subtle little titter of a laugh
but 
a
 flat out heehaw-magical-maniacal-crazed—loudest-non-stop-laugh-in-this-world-in-this-century-laugh.
It was the quickest way I knew how to get out of it.
And yes, it worked.
Thank you....
