poem of the day 04.03.13


bad guy archetype

i’m the villain with the twirling black moustache
the black hat and the black suit
the shroud walking into town in the fog
snidely whiplash tying you to the railroad tracks
the eye-rolling, cackling, leering, hand-rubbing
bad guy archetype of your nightmares
who dreams of ruling the world in wicked bliss
the scoundrel, the crook, the rascal, the rat, and the rogue all in one
the cloaked ghoul sitting here before the dawn
dropping poems on your head like middle eastern bombs.
