Do you ponder over shit that shapes itself?
Komorebi...
with timid leaves
sly sunbeams play
hide and seek--
Through supple branches
breezes sigh melodies;
shadows waltz beneath
Author's note: Komorebi is a Japanese word that translates to: sunlight filtering through branches.

Creeping visuals on lsd
Perception warped and fickle see
My fixation, can it be
The melancholy of a dying tree

Claw Hammer
My faithful claw hammer
Shiny metal rubber handle
Such a helpful heavy tool
You are quality in purchase
You’ve been with me a while
I trust you to do a good job
My mothers’ cranium was no match
For one clawed swipe from you
The repeated blows unnecessary
Just purely for my pleasure
We made a professional mess together
A necessary culling put to bed
Then buried in the cellar
Thank you my friendly hammer
I’ve just rewritten this song
‘If I had a hammer
I’d skull whack my mother
I’d skull whack my father
All over this house
I’d hammer out skull shards
I’d hammer out brain chunks
I’d hammer out the hate between
Me and my parents
All over this house.’

"Record Static is Underrated"
Someone once told me Needles are for pain
I told them no, because needles are for music
and that's why I own a record player
it spins
like young girls in frilly skirts
while I,
wish on planes that look like shooting stars

Thanks heaps everyone for having a crack at the comp, there's some really great entries being submitted, so keep your muse jacked up on vodka redbulls and continue churning out your short poems. Remember there's a limit of three poems per poet.
Unfortunately, there are other poets who have broken the foo king rules! This is not a freestyler idowhateveriwannadosofuckyou comp. This is a SHORT POEM COMP with a maximum of TWENTY [20] WORDS!
So before this comp begins to snowball into total anarchy, I kindly ask you to read the FOO KING RULES! And then perhaps you could revise your entries.
Thank you deeply!

personalities who unfortunately can't escape
their destiny of simultaneously being
the same cockhead

Cups runneth over
when unfulfilled black kettle pots are
insecurely emptied of contributions to society,
displacing usefulness with uselessness

The push of this button
will last but a moment.
Ridding the world of all of you?
A lifetime achievement.

Silly Silly Putty in my hands
temporarily tattooed,
you're shit that shapes itself willy nilly,
mirroring society's latest tabloid fodder

The cotton shirt off my back
has more blood
sweat
and tears
poured into it
than your hemped up poetry

Vampire walks into a gay bar asking,
Whose dick does one have to suck
to get a drink around here?
