I hate untitled poems but I have no name for this

By ThuggingWithMyFannyPack

Is this dark enough?

 

-- 

Punctual punctuation marks

Needles like alliterations

So repetitive

Who needs E?

Shoot some XYZ, get higher than an apostrophe

and come fly away with me

 

Is this dark enough?

 

-- 

Blazing blades and

Dalliances with the Dali Lama

Cutting deeper than commas

Oh for grammar’s sake!

Stop looking for reason

In the mind of the fucking lunatic

And learn to lean like italics

 

Is this dark enough?

 

-- 

Heinous hayrides

With Jack the fucking Ripper

He’ll tattoo a semi colon

Right through your chest

Where mechanical hearts bleed

Cue laughter from the peanut gallery

Throwing asterisks at the stage

Take a bow bitch, we’re all glad you’re done

 

Now tell me darling, is this dark enough for you?

    Crazy, clever poetics loaded with wicked humour..And that "title" is ingenious whether intentional or not...A perfect fit to the irreverence of the content. Bloody brilliant.

Shoot some XYZ, get higher than an apostrophe and come fly away with me" I don't even know why, but this struck me as one of the best sentences I have ever read. If this is how you deal with your anger, my selfish little self thinks you should get angry more often. Simply exquisite.

    I literally wrote this poem down in my journal so I would never forget it in case he deleted it to make room or something. I forgot to book mark it on my way back in with a new name. Shall remedy now.

    Loving the metaphors and thoroughly enjoyed, but the last stanza seemed to have an ulterior motive perhaps, still pondering, thanks.

  • A former member wrote: This is going to sound strange, but I want to lick your fucking brain. I am now inspired. Shall write a poem about you, yes...
