Heavy Metal Rocker Man

October 31st 2007 09:59

I am power in a can
I'm heavy metal rocker man
I slice through cars just with my beard
My air guitar is widely feared
I crush beer cans on my forehead wide
with the beer still trapped inside
And my muscles don't even start to ache
When I Karate Chop Justin Timberlake
Smashing up in a powerful riot
Of sound and fury; a perfect diet

When you're stuck on boredom's page
Open wide and show some rage
Strum the right note on air Guitar
And I will come to you from far
To bring a bit of passion back
And set you up for a full attack.

Rah!

Letter to a Poet

October 30th 2007 08:59

Dear Mr and or Mrs Poet
Your days are numbered and you know it
Words fail to slice inot a heart
When use for such a skill as art
And so it's easily deduced
That they work best when mass produced
And recirculated through your TV
Spoken loud to you and me
From greasy politicians lips
And written cross the buxom hips
Of a sex symbol used to make
us buy 'pure water from a lake'

Words from you mean nothing now
Time will simply not allow
Your voice to be heard over the roar
Of a violent propaganda war
With loaded words and connotations
Mass produced across the nations
Leaving you alone, with your tears and howls
Solitary and broken in your pool of Vowels

Emo Kid

October 29th 2007 12:47

Hey little Emo kid
With the fringe on top your lid
And Chemical Romance in your pocket
The face of lovers in your locket

Why do you there look as sad?
Surely it is not so bad?
Please be happy, please just smile.
Oh Emo kid, just stay a while?

Similies that are not used enough

October 25th 2007 12:41

Her face was a red as a cat; a cat that hat been thrown into a vat of fire engine red paint.

She gave a smile that could melt a mans face

Zombie Ducks line the sky
Rotting flesh and malice way up high
Tearing into chickens and crows

The Truth About Unicorns (First Chapter)

October 3rd 2007 03:33

You know how at the end of Rumpelstitskin the little guy is so pissed off that the smart arse blonde chick worked out his name, he stomps on the grounds and disappears in a puff of smoke? Nope. No way. When you look at the old version, it says he drove his right foot so far into the ground that it sank in up to his waist. Then in a passion he seized the left foot with both hands and tore himself in two. Which is sweet, but try selling that to little kids. Nup. Not gonna happen.
You might think that’s the least of it. But trust me, there’s more. A whole lot more. Like, for instance, do you think Unicorns are sweet? Yeah. Thought you would. You know what those horns can do to a human skull?
Trust me on this one. It’s not sweet
