Nightmares, Pool, Scatter, Spell, I'm not ok



Nightmare: Tyburn
Dreaming
Screaming
Weeping
Grieving
HELP! Im Hurting,  Dreaming, Screaming, HELP!
Nightmares got me Weeping, Grieving, HELP!

Pool: Limerick
I went to the swimming pool
I could only sit there and drool
Mr.Bender was there
WIthout underwear
Why did I come to the pool

Scatter: Rondeau
When we play tag we surely scatter
But when I run it hurts my bladder
But Tag is an important game
My bladder feels like its enflame
But tag is an important matter
I cannot waste time on my bladder
It is necessary to run FASTER
Because tag is no longer a game
When we play Tag
Nothing necessarily matters
Because now I must run faster
IT IS NO LONGER A CHILDISH GAME
ITS SCARY WHAT IT HAS BECAME
There is something strange about this matter
When we play tag

Spell: Villanele
You're under my spell
Can't escape you see
My spell is unbreakable as you can tell

You feel as if all you can do is fall
There is no way for you to flee
You're under my spell

What is that obnoxious smell?
It's my potion I've brewed just for thee
You're under my spell

Now all you can do is dwell
At the fact that you will never be free
You're under my spell

Welcome to He**
Under my spell you shall suffer, A guarantee
You're under my spell

Here I shall say farewell
Have fun, for now, you are nothing more than debris
You're under my spell
You're under my spell

I'm not ok: Sonnet
I’ve got this twitch in my arm, life’s real bad
Can’t handle this, but I must thrive to live
Living has made me remarkable sad
Some days I dont want to live, must survive

This twitch has gotten even worse, much worse
Help, Soon you wont see to much of me
This twitch is getting worse, I need a nurse
Soon i’ll be a permanent absentee

Now my consiocness begins to flee
At this point all i’ll do is sit and plea
