Really Sucks

My sweet ice-cream treat fell slowly down to my feet like vanilla snow

The Agnostic Acrostic

Such a silly concept is this,
killing men they know exist.
everyone all the while,
put their faith in denial.
till all the people with the power,
insist their faiths will be devoured.
can truly someone say they know,
if everybody wants to show.
something unseen that's truly there,
my guess is as good as theirs.

readily I do believe,
everything I can percieve.
in that I know I put my trust,
given truths one knows they must.
never say fire's not hot,
simply prove to me it's not.

so now I sit on my high horse,
under God cannot be forced.
put your faith in what YOU know,
really I can't tell you though.
enter in to your belief,
make me not religions theif.
everything says that though we dream,
.

Monkey and Me

My monkey and me,
were hanging out in a tree.
we hung out so long,
that he grew a strong,
res-em-belance to me.

That's not where it ends,
but rather where it bends.
we left both our lives,
and left by our wives,
still stayed best of friends.

So what shall we eat,
neither can cook a meat.
I'll pick from your fur,I know you'll concurr
A bountiful harvest of fleas!

Gwen

Flibbety Shibbety
Gwendolyn Geritrude
Blackened the windows with
curtains so plain.

Neighborly aesthetic
peri-precautiously
people all decided
she was insane. 



Robert Dixon
My attempt at Double Dactyl.
Let me know what you think.  
Constructively.

Bedwetter

I never have to pee, as bad as when I'm asleep. I hold it so long, bladder so strong, Thank goodness for yellow sheets.

Going Halloween Haiku Crazy

"A ghoul's parade"
Time remains still for The silent, eternal march Of children disguised
"Fun for All"
Black and orange smiles A knight of ghastly terror for playful sprites
"Darkest night of the year"
A powerful howl pierces the children's laughter The cold hallows wind
"Haunting holiday"
A pre-November unforgiving melody "Happy Halloween"
Robert Dixon 10/12/2011 *Entry for the halloween haiku contest, is this what you meant by more than one entry? I added titles to differentiate them.

My Favorite Cereal

Have you tried the Kix much, much, better than Trix When it hits milk, smoother than Silk You'll know where I get my fix

Dream-Reality

Flying swiftly, surely spinning, swooping, flipping Sunlight, clouds, wind, Earth Screaming, flailing, praying terrifying, tearful Falling

A Cold November Day

In the cool fog of the predawn morning
on a cold November day.
Darkness is apparent, waiting,
A shadow bouncing along the edges of the grey.
The wind howls a melancholy song,
like a Bassist plays the blues.
A dark tall figure looms there,
the wind barely ruffles its hair.
A laborador stand on hind legs,
not the playful dance of a dog, but the haunting stance of a demon.
It stares straight through me.  
I am frozen in fear as it draws near.
A hauntingly human walk as it steps from the shadows on my block.
A deep, menacing growl pierces the winds howl.
It speaks, "Come with me," and the darkness closes in.
My soul was not saved 
on this cold
November
day.

Coal

Coal dirty, grimy shoveling, glowing, burning smoke, soot, heat, pressure hardening, shining, dazzling brilliant, beautiful Diamond
