Life in a Jar
Life in a Jar I’d like to find a special jar To put aside some life, A jar that keeps both face and form, And stints the scourge of change. I’d put therein, a rusted leaf, Or summer’s one perhaps, To always have the seasons at The twisting of a wrist. I’d put therein, my true love’s kiss, To always know its...

Heroin, China white, or just smack, took him into lost dreams and an altering of gritty reality Chasing the dragon, didn’t seem enough to balm a wounded psyche Losing to lust demons An iconic face of his late father A boy destined to see an assassination Shot at the hands, of Sirhan Sirhan Grief stricken is the neon nod, duji the catalyst that would...

Premium Member The Scourge of the West
The meanest man in town, That everybody feared. Shot anybody down, When anybody neared. The scourge of the West, And the ultimate sinner. The Devil gets the best, From Dirty Dick Skinner. Had a scar on his cheek, With a patch on his eye. He'd prey on the meek, And make women cry. His bad whiskey breath, Made everyone sick. The Master of Death, Was Ole Dirty Dick. No Sheriff lived...

Breath Taking Scourge
It started when he coughed. Then we made jokes and laughed, Hoping the curse we are is vindicated. But the malady on lungs it feasted. In its toxic smolder we chocked. Rich and poor our doors we locked In desperate timid fear Of its heinous air scare Disguising as fever it tripped Through air as lungs it ripped Taking many more caged Victims, as its attempts...

Of the Dreaded Scourge Currently Afflicting the Municipality and Environ of My Nativity and Youth
This dread disease that has afflicted my home, This malady, this plague on my house; This making convertible the former quaintness and provincialism thereof Into something wholly despicable and disgustingly homogeneous, Yclept "cosmopolitanism," and "worldliness," and "globalization," (Or, perhaps "globalism"); That force of rude power that recognizes no potency but that of itself; The rising tide of puissant, unfocused...

Tired of the sufferation Real menace of earths apparition Dont judge me with my appearance We are the great ones No time to mingle with pagans No religion I believe in no legion Tread the right road even if in poverty Try hold on in this world of calamity Even though we work so hard And still get no pay Maintain Godly way Try kill the...

Scourge
God,these companies are a scourge! Please stop ringing me is all I urge. Ringing me every day, why don't you just go away. I don't want to take your call, I might not answer it at all. So please don't ring me anymore, like I've told you, loads before. If you ring me one more time, I'll have no choice but to block my line. Then maybe I can get some...
