Super Man come through
Super Man come scoop
For this chili and biscuits has given me the poops
Come as fast as you can
Bring me to the can
For if I soil my pantaloons
Are you really a super man?

Love is what
Is it doing whatever to make her smile
Is it the late night phone calls
What is love
Is it telling her she is beautiful every day
Is it your heart skipping a beat when you see her
Love is love
It’s knowing that she makes your day
It’s that you think you aren’t good enough
What is love
Love is a crazy and beautiful thing

Dexter is a serial killer in Miami Florida who kills other serial killers. Nothing can stop him besides his weakness for chocolate. He desires it so much that he eats it every meal and it might even kill him!

entry one:

Rosco

My best friend he is, brown with a black spot
With a coat even an expert shant tweak
His big brown eyes puts my heart in a knot
These are what make rosco so very unique
At night he nudges me, a sign to cuddle
At dawn he licks my face, a wet awake
And during a storm he whines in muddle
One night he even fell my loved birthday cake
In the gleaming sun, shining a fine coat
He loves to make new pals, fetching a ball
So graceful he is, yes a friend to gloat
At home he struts like a king down the halls
My best friend, whom i will love and behold
Forever in my heart, shall he grow old

Mid-dreary day, I was dragged by chains with a tough force. The walls separated into halls of categorical characteristics of those around me. Shrieks and loud pounding echoed through every halls, alarms were roaring every now and again, and the grey concrete walls trapped all the pain and tears of the broken. I struggled against the force, screaming until my throat was strained and raw. “Let me go!” I cried. “Just kill me already!” No one listened; no one cared.
I passed by a room blocked by maxi glass and bars. My old schizotypal friend laid upon the room, pushing away the plate of food a wretched old man was giving to him. He snapped and slapped the food away and screamed horridly. The old man immediately struck his head with an axe and the last thing I saw was his blood splattered all over the glass. My body was weighed down by panic and the bodies of those detaining me. They hoist me up and force me to stare at the glass. Squeezing my eyes shut, I screamed and cried. Kicked and struggled. But when I opened them, he was there fully conscious. Like nothing ever happened.
I awoke.

Why do dogs have to leave us so soon?
15 years really isn’t enough.
My best friend,
My companion,
My loyal,
Furry,
Four legged friend.
My fantastic little pup.

Night was dark and the outcome clear,
Shadows grew as end came near.
A monster tall as day to night,
Preys on kids and adults alike.
Thousand fangs, grotesque tail,
Sloughing skin filled with scales.
Endless claws with sharp barbed ends,
Stabbed and hooked and pulled right in.
Expect no escape from evils grasp,
Prepare to die and breathe your last.
Fear no evil, embrace no sin,
A heart of darkness within all men.

Not all is lost at hallow’s end,
The souls it reaps will live again.
Send the gathered, a breath of ash,
Seek the damned, and pull them back.
Voices stolen never to speak,
Feel burning breath across your cheek.
The kiss of death to seal the deal,
A rush of cold bites as you keel.
Care to dream of softer nights,
Where family embrace by candlelight.
Brighter days, drifting thought,
Careless love and endless fraught.
Sun rise calls in dazzling display,
Opportunity arises alongside day.
Remember the monster’s found within,
Keep light close and never give in.

A long summer night
I just wanted a bite.
The munchies were bad.
It was making me sad.
The movies were rolling
And the dog was just strolling.
He looked at me with puppy dog eyes,
And I knew he wanted pies.
To hell with what he wanted,
Someone had just screamed.
I ran outside to see,
I thought it was a bee.
It was wonder woman
Eating pizza with a newman.
“Did you want a slice?”
I just wanted rice.
“I think i’ll pass”
“Don’t be an ass”

There is a place,
Where people come together,
and spend time with their families.
There is a place where the air is warm,
and the ground is sandy,
the beach truly is a paradise.

The smoke consumes us,
Fills our nostrils.
Our lungs.
Us,
We are children,
We are mothers,
We are fathers.
We sacrifice our health, our wellbeing.
All for what?
The smoke consumes us,
the thick darkness blankets us,
smothering.
They bathe in money while we breathe it in
Day and Night.
Grey.
