Fishbowl Mind

Fishbowl eyes

Stuck
On the rash
On the arm

It is
Redder
and
Redder

Does not
Cease
to grow

It climbs
limb
By
limb

Ever present
It eats away

First
It gets at the skin

Just a sink hole
Fishbowl Eyes

Seeing
Only
The
Inevitable

Void of Solutions
Harping

What’s outside?
What’s up there?

Surely
That fishbowl
Has an Opening
But

Fishbowl eyes

Can only see

From

Left
To
Right

Side
To
Side

Red Woman

Oh,
She lies, She lies,
She lies All the time, And
All the time, They cry, cry, cry,

Please, Please, Please,
Don’t lie to me.

Please, Please, Please,
Just be Mine.

And

Even though
They know, They know
They try their best to turn their head
Blind their eyes
Push up their nose
But
Blind eyes fail to quiet the mind
And still that whisper continues on
Continues to chime
Rings in their ear with that
Same old line

Oh,
She lies, She lies, She lies.

But
They know They know
Oh,
I know
That they know when I lie

And

Anymore
I don’t
Even bother to hide

Anymore
I Just
Don’t Even Try

But

Little did they Know that
Though
There were many
I loved them all
And
Little did they Know
That
Though
There were many
I loved them all--

I loved them all Full and Whole.

Man Meat Prey

Oh, Oh, Oh,
And all those Men
I forced Them In
I did I did
Caught Them
In their
Midnight Grin
Just told Me
They were full of Sin
I wanted In
I wanted Them
All one Man
But
Then again
All those
Other Men
I sucked Them In
I did I did
And
How were They to know that then
That
Every Man
Was just like Them
Just wanted In
And
How were They to know that then
That
Every Man
I
Lured In
Came In Came In
Came In again
That every Man
I lured In
I lured In
And
Just like Them
I Layed Them Down
In My
Lion’s Den
I Layed Them Down
Over and Over
And
Over Again.

To Miss Foxy Roxy

To Miss Foxy Roxy:

Oh Why, Oh why,
Did you turn so badly

Turn so badly
In my Belly

Turned my Throat
To Acid Jelly

Left me Purging
In Back Alleys

Signed,
Your faithful lover, Dirty Dan's sole survivor, Doting Don



And be sure to stay tuned for the upcoming "Doting Don's Dosing Dosier"

Miss Foxy Roxy

Miss Foxy Roxy
Bumpin all night
She’ll shoot you dead
Before she does you right

She comes on creeping
Makes you ill
She’s no candy coated
Sugar Pill

Miss Foxy Roxy
Addictive as hell
She’ll take all your money
And leave you a shell

With her Orange cap
And spoon in hand
She’ll tie you tighter
Than any rubber band can

Miss Foxy Roxy
Says, “come to bed”
Be careful, though, Boy
She’ll fuck you dead

Dirty Dan’s Decadent Demise

Low Down
Dirty Dan
Looks for Jobs
But none are Found
Without Work
No Money Perks
So Dirty Dan does his worse

Disapproved of
Dirty Dan
Cut his White Girl Down
Cooked her in Ceramic Pans
Watched as the Microwave
Turned her ‘Round

Devilish Dick
This Dirty Dan
Went from Soft to Hard
Kept this Girl in his Hand
And walked her to his car

But Dirty Dan
Soon found out
This Girl he did adore
Would not ever be enough
He’d always want some more

Disenchanted
Dirty Dan
Trying to make it Last
Went in too Deep
Then fell Asleep
She was Much
Too Much
For any Man




This is the first poem I have written so far for my "Lindsay's (Future) Book of Adult Nursery Rhymes."

I wrote this early in the Fall 2008 semester for my Grammer class. The directions were to write either a poem or a paragraph leaving out the specified parts of speech. I made a 'D' in the class and recieved no credit for this assignment but I like the poem.
