    It's not the best suggestion...

Acid Rain
My dark deeds
Of shame and filth,
My coward confessions
of cupidity and sin,
My redblooded eyes
Murders of innosense,
Yahweh! to you I cry,
Wash away my stains
Pour some acid rain....

Premium Member We Eat Red Meat
we eat red meat, fish, eggs 
and plants for food

we cut down trees to build our homes

in the twenty first century
history may look upon us 
as murders, cannibals, 
and a savage brood...

rivers drying water scarce
resonant springs flow less silent space
rancor sprouts mindless murders chase
remembrance crying thoughtless tussles

The Darkest Night of My Life
I couldn't sleep as normal,
I was half asleep I knew something was bothering me,
Then i started to recall my childhood,
And there it was the iceberg,
7 child murders in my area while I was growing up....

Best Armed Mass Murders
Best Armed Mass Murders

America's mass murderers are best armed;
This is why many people they have harmed;
Injuried and died;
Then people cried,
And all of us have forever became alarmed.

Halloween Haiku
The devil trembles
Feeling the autumn wind's rage
Children eat candy


Red mask covers eyes
Blind to first fall carnival
Her pockets picked clean


Nevermore  lovers
Halloween murders-blood found

Premium Member Green has sway

More murders in East Chicago today.
None of it matters, the green dollar has sway.
Drugs are the main cause of urban decay.
It goes on and on without any change
You gotta, know somebody's getting paid.
People are Dying in a Moral Hurricane....

Premium Member An 'Orphan' Pleads for Mercy
    A young man murders his mother and father 'for fun'
      throws himself on the court's mercy, 'cos he's an 'orphan'

    The young man is Hamas, his mother and father, Palestinians and Jews
       the West is the court, on whose jury sit fools

Premium Member I Am a Super Sleuth At Night
TV people take up oodles of my time.
They turn me into a police officer,
A detective,
And a forensic genius.
I solve murders, and mysteries
And save gobs of people every night,
Luckily I can do it from my recliner
With my dog snoring away next to me...

Witches
So as a sequel to my last poem,
I gave the unsloved child murders in my childhood a thought,
And oven coven,
I had dinner and talked to the three hecate,
'What does the wise man want?'
We agreed retribution for him,
They suggested I requested but I  said,
Leave it to you....

Happy
I'm fresh as a daisy
and happy as a clam
refreshed and replenished
Enthused is what I am!

It helps I'm off work now
I'm not watching the news
No murders or mayhem 
To bring me the blues

Sublimely oblivious
Spells "happy" to the letter
As far as information
Sometimes less is better!...

Texas - 2022
With a $10,000 peg
A Texan has no need to beg
Inside Burger Kings
A money bell rings
When anyone "murders" an egg*


*Unlike civilised people, Texans
count their chickens before the
eggs hatch, so they do not under-
stand why the Supreme Court won't
declare an egg to be a, "Live Birth"!...

Premium Member Dracula Daughter Murders Alice
Alice, murdered by Dracula’s daughter
White rabbit keeps secret as he ought’er.
He sits on her throne
As Halloween gnome
Skulls laugh at the smeary night blotter

Striped legs and a red hair bow pretty
Dracula’s child morbid and witty
Secrets secure
Alice has no cure
Crying from the bowels of evil city...

Germany
GERMANY 


From Black Forest’s leafy velvet
Breathing fresh air over the land;
From the fertile earth of the sheltered Rhine,
Or where Goethe and Handel wrote their elegies;
From geest and damp marshes
Teeming rich with sea birds : 
From this ground rises a misty eulogy,
A breathy chorus of myriad murders....
