Your SIMPLE Life Needs EXCITEMENT

Weather forecast for tonight: DARK.

Sitting
beneath a banyan tree,
a fulgid fluid spoiled my shirt;
Fresh Blood.

Eating
a sinful chocolate cake,
something stirred under the creamy layer;
A Lizard.

Climbing
inside a crowded bus,
an eerie silence greeted my arrival;
No Faces.

Going
on my first date,
her toothy smile left me chilled;
Lady Dracula.

Sleeping
with my latest girlfriend,
a cold object stuck my chest;
Dead Hand.

Driving
on a lonely highway,
a flash of lightening revealed everything;
World’s End.

Jogging
along a rocky shore,
a soiled paper caught my eye;
My Poem.
