:snap: Kewl, CP

The ferris wheel
takes another victim
up into it's cold steel grasp
Another helpless child
taken for a ride
Under the clouds
Above the sweet broken carnival soil
The screams are inside,
Fear will only make it spin faster.

When John Candy passed away, I wrote

Another comic genius is gone.
Maybe life is getting a little less fun.
Or death is getting more serious.

OMG, I remember when everyone wrote it that way. :eek:

Here's another. My computer teacher had us do journals and she usually gave us a topic....not today.

Cool dude. You're almost inspiring me to post something...

Sitting on a hydrogen bomb eating fig newtons
Maiming a crocodile with a salad fork
Eating a slab of Chernobyl Canned Ham
Drinking milk from a crusty lead pipe
I'm sorry my dear but it's all very true
I'd rather do all these things; than have lunch with you

What if earth's crust is really a rind?
Would you call a bankrupt diner a dined?
Is a sour grape really unkind?
Or maybe. Just maybe, I've lost my mind.

Violets are Blue
Roses are red
We're coming aboard
Prepare to eat lead

Johnny comes limping home
bullet in his leg ain't it grand
Somebody quick! Pipe up the band
Just think what they'd do
If he'd lost a hand

I think I had a really bad day when I wrote this next bit- I had probably also had too much caffeine and spent a lot of time playing Vampire: The Masquerade.

When the sky curls up and reveals
it's ochre underside laced with
glittering stars
The wind will howl through oaken reeds and herald the arrival
of your doom
The mountain will cower under the seas drowning out earth's sorrow
The world must pray I don't create tomorrow.
