Who said that?
Me
You
Nobody
A ghost
My cat
I
Really
Need
A
Hobby
Masque
Masks make my makeup magically moot,
My mind magnificently morbid,
My mouth more mysterious,
My motions mindful,
My mood morose,
My mother merry.
Masks, my medical mission.
A lot of men team up and go on a silly and pointless journey to look for something that they never find, but they do find a lot of rabbits.
Confused
In this my twenty words
I find my tongue has stalled
Like those confused herds
Of cows when curtain called
Hopscotch, I watch
So you like to play hopscotch
How about I sit and watch
And make comments at my leisure
Really it's more of a pleasure
Kick it up just a notch
No Place To Go
I would fly but I have no wings anymore
I would run but my legs have melted
I would drive but I forgot how
I would come if I could
But I've just forgotten how
I Scream, You Scream
It's here
It's now
It hollows you out with an ice cream scoop
Until all that's left are chunks of frozen strawberry
It's life
It's torture
Living here in the freezer beneath a cardboard lid
Behind the frozen waffles that are covered with freezer burn
The spoon feels like a screwdriver
It twists in your side
You wish you could shiver
But you can't even hide
Someday you'll reach your expiration date
Someday they'll throw you out
And you'll melt into some sewer grate
Until you're all run out
People of Earth, I have just one question to ask of you: has anyone seen my phone?
Ugly
Ultimately, Ulysses understood
Underneath, under ugly
Uses utilitarian uranium
Understand, Ulysses utterly
Undid ugliness, undid
Utter undoing
Untouched urchin
Ugly urbanity
Uptown, uproar, upend
Universal umber
Unkempt upscale
Uninhabitable
Unclean
The Kraken
Deep inside the roiling sea
Swallowed by an oyster
There lives a tiny part of me
A part that is a monster
Black and grey and full of teeth
It slithers and unfurls
It slumbers while it waits beneath
A shining bed of pearls
I tried to bury it and run
I tried to weigh it down with rocks
I hid it far from everyone
Down below the salty docks
But it woke up, it got away
It slipped back up upon the shore
Escaping through the solid quay
To join with me I'm whole once more
Although to call me now complete
Is the saddest of sad lies
I think it's time that you should meet
The one inside, my sweet surprise.
I hope you like it.
Happy Anniversary.
