Member Poem

the demon in my life

I skip along, content and free
To-day has been so good to me
Remembering a merrily
the demon in my life

My life was slow; dull bore, a snore
Punch in, punch out, from chore to chore
Then she came forth and evermore
cut deep her bowie knife

My routine ruin'd, my brain a flash
All color fades, washed out; bone ash
Grand melodies, now thrash and clash
sing loud, the queen of strife

Do not conform, do not play nice
Don't ever have a selling price
Pursue your path, and roll the dice
slamdance to drum and fife

Enjoy the gore, shake hands with death
Make love like rabbits hooked on meth
And scream aloud till dying breath

The brutal goddess, clad in white
Her artwork captures the last wight
The harpy cusses, deep midnight

The demon leaves, to haunt, I fear
Another soul, caught unaware
Attracted to an answered prayer

I skip along - tee hee tee hee,
a'hoping this will never be
the last time I will ever see
the demon in my life
