WARNING: This poem is really dark and really weird... and I wrote it when I was angry, at about 3 in the morning. It's really hard for me to post this just because it seems to grate against me... or at least the picture of me I'd like to preserve in people's minds. .... Generally I'm a happy friendly person... agh... oh well.



I had sex with your wife for free
I declined when she tried to pay me
I really think she was a bit of a whore,
but not anymore.
She was a girl who had aspirations
Had tits and ass and an application
Miniskirt and high heels,
How did her breasts feel?
You had sex on the photocopier,
and in the hall I was a voyer,
I know you heard the way she screamed,
Her acting’s supreme.
Trophy wife had a trophy life
til you came at her with a carving knife
Saw her banging the gardener
Guess you couldn’t handle the whore in her
She was a beauty at 17
She could have made it on the big screen
Instead she ended up as your wife,
impaled on a carving knife
she would have cried to see her son
growing up to hold a gun
Don’t you see that you ruined his life
with 18 slashes of your knife
One parent’s dead, the other’s to blame
look at him now can you see his shame
He will always be scarred
and his life will be hard,
But at least he had respect for his mother
and at least he’s not much like his father.
But you know he won’t ever forgive you
No matter what kind of things you do
But one day he will take his gun,
and no one will know who won.

WoW Hannah...when did you write that? That was a good story. Compelling.

I don't remember when I wrote it. I just remember being really sick of hearing of the same things over and over... and then like... the first few lines popped into my head and I went from there. I don't know.

Well you did good with it...I was amazed at the story line. Told in a poetic form. You did really well with it.

Thanks... it kinda makes me think of a punk rock song or something.

You should try out for band practice, some one could so make that into a song.
