Pathos And Nightmares: Poems 1 To 5
3 April, 2009
Author: Colin Stewart
Their lives were interrupted and cruelly displaced
by fading into the mystery of a cold case
with the most haunting invitation of them all
to the Missing Persons Fraternity Ball!
--
Dr. Jekyll would find a lovely new bride
with whom he could lay down beside
but the beast in him had surely lied.
On their wedding night she met Mr. Hyde!
--
In this Druid circle many have tread
with stories of guilt and eternal dread
as unfinished business has surely led
to this group therapy for the dead!
--
Said one effigy to the other one burning
"I wish I had pursued higher learning
instead of being stuck in a dead end job
abused and mistreated by this unruly mob!"
--
Certain lovers are doomed by the same fate
but Anthony and Cleopatra still patiently wait
to meet their destiny on this double date
as Sid and Nancy arrive fashionably late!
