Sickos Poems | Examples


List of Member Poems

1990

Go-go gadget, withdrawals no more,
a toast to addicts—there’s treasure on the floor.
X marks the spot, scribbled in Crayola,
connect all the dots—ecstasy, the night is over.

From Rock ’em Sock ’em robots to rocks in socks, a show-off,
hungry hungry Zippos, the money swells my lymph nodes, a lovely something sent ghosts—
right outside your windows,
trust no one, innuendo,
the night piggybacks the sickos.

I feel far from home, yet remotely close to sin,
my coffin’s so inviting—volunteer, I jump right in.
Fundamental frequency, but I only hit the high note,
incidental contingencies, lies in every word that she spoke.

Intentional indecency—my clip could use a reload,
a spectacle illegally, items bought without a barcode.
I yearn for entertainment, chose the red pill, hide from agents,
time’s complacent, me and drugs—true love, it’s our engagement.

And if I ever said “drugs make me a better me,”
I’m sorry that I lied—every night,
I cry myself to sleep.

Peculiar Sensation

Night is pending.
Not even the most anxious
can avoid time.
Day after day I dread the
the death of nothing
that the night spawns.
The TV becomes my 
best friend~
a window of light
in the abyss.
Old TV shows
are brighter than
the new.
Tonight I choose
The Andy Griffith Show.
I put my earphones in,
and turn the volume down
(on the off chance 
sleep embraces me)
and I embrace my fate. 
I watch.
It's strange.
I feel a peculiar force
tugging at the corners 
of my mouth.
The opposite of gravity.
A sensation that pulls
upward.
I had forgotten the feeling.
I laugh inside,
but for a different reason
than my body is currently
reacting to.
It seems even the most
sleep-deprived,
fear stricken
low in life
sickos 
can't keep themselves
from smiling at 
the infamous
Don Knotts

Premium Member Darkness over the land'

Its 9'30 monday morning U K time the skies around London are the
Grey of grime.' Its like in the evening', a somber scene i
Think its taken from 'middle earths book' the fellowship of
The ring.? As by mechanical means the sky is sown.' To
Drown us in gloom, these clouds are grown.' To deny real
Life..To cause the farmers strife.' I consider only sad beings, could envisage and plan such an innings' closing
Churches and pubs.' Which don.'t need the pre-fix of hubs.'
Yet there is great capicity in humanity..' innate intelligence
That will counter insanity.' Dr evil and the devil bankers real Sickos.'  Can only be the answer.' May the evil curse of
Pathogens enter into them and cover them, may no rest be given
Ever.' to these cretins of wicked endeavours.' May they be
Soundly mocked and forsaken. May their very  presence of mind
Be taken.' May every sickness be their portion.' May they
Be a lesson of morality and cause repair.' So to the Bible
Many will hearken to avoid their own souls being darkened.'


Premium Member one word sticks

Why has creepy ego appeared?
D.T. by some sickos was reared!
He fears loss as sin
And smears all to win
But clearly his veneer is...weird

More Lies Said and Bull Fed

many more lies said
laid with women while in bed
more bull us has fed

was kind and thoughtful
a natural born nice guy
you would want to meet

Lincoln supported
by many he never knew
who would need much help

another rumor
Trump has been put to get us
many more sickos

death and destruction
buildings torn to pieces
losses and chaos

Premium Member The Dark Side of Liberty

Dark denizens of the night
    gathering in ill-lit backrooms
      haunts of the night
 
  They tease each other with
    rouged cheeks, their mascara
      their pimply breasts, shaved legs

  Some are known for tantalizing
    tempting striptease, revealing
      hairy chests and knobby knees

  Their hardened faces greeting poor
    unsuspecting 'straights,' who, horrified
      run screaming off into the night  

  And now the Left has lumped these 
    misbegotten sickos of the night
      in with today's 'civil rights movement' 

  of transgenders, kweers, and worse
    too debauched to describe, to be
      celebrated in 'Drag Queen Shows'

  in our public libraries, where America introduces
    her precious youngsters into the fraudulent
      creepy cabals of Satanism, endorsed by 'leaders' gone mad


Insanity

I just realised how common a disease
Insanity and madness really are
It's spreading throughout this small island
Taking over all these good friends of ours

It doesn't matter what the colour or class 
Doesn't matter the race or creed
It attacks black, brown, red and yellow
All mixes and everything in between

Colleen has it, so does Marcia
Roxanne, Gary and Venice
So many sickos, so many psychos
It must be something in the breeze

Anyway sign off time now
A pair of sickheads to take home
But some last advice before I go
Don't let the sickhead sickness take hold :p
