Very Bad Poetry

Welcome to the last refuge for the world's worst poetry.

It's difficult to understand how, in this age of information, poems that merely miss the mark can be tossed into the cold world to fend for themselves, only to whither and be forgotten.

Please help us to help them to help us.

Dirty Tricks

Robert Hawkins

A generous mixture of saltpeter and brown sugar
with a magnesium strip for the fuse.
Piled atop the hood of someones car.
You have a slag where once
their car was.

A drop of mercury in one shoe works best but even a
shirt pocket.
A heavy metal poisoning theres no cure for.

Need a binary nerve agent?
You go to your pool supply
company and buy a fifty
pound can of clorine.
Then you ump plixal gelixyl.

I'm only a little crazy.
But you can blame our military.
They taught me all those
niceties while I was in
Cuba. But damn If I tell
you people.
Some of you are even more crazy than I.
I would look sane by comparision.
If you think I am going to pass on allotropic formulas.
So you can wipe out your neighborhoods.
Do us all a favor yourself
included put a drop of
mercury in your own shoe.

There are those in our world whom would compare the USA
to Quintus Fabius Maximus
Verrcucosus.
Called Cunctator.
9-11 was a dirty trick. To them I would say go hide in the deepest cave you can find. Just how many neutrinos sleeting through
your body. Before you cease to exist.
