AND THE ANGELS CRIED

Albanese tried to end democracy
He cheated, he defamed, he lied,
And way up there in Heaven
John Curtin most certainly cried.

Ben Chifley was teary-eyed as well
As he watched Albanese below,
Wandering how much further down

V FOR DEFEAT

Albo tried to defeat democracy
With the evil, racist voice,
He lied, cheated, defamed us,
Cried when we made our choice:

Because we chose democracy
And rejected V for defeat,
In his black apartheid reign
He wanted a black elite.

By the...

ALBANESE'S BLACK APARTHEID

Only three-point four percent
Yet Albo says they have to reign,
The Voice was only for the few
And would wash democracy away.

They have five percent of pollies
But Albo says that's not enough,
The truth came out despite him
We all saw...

ALBANESE'S BLACK REIGN

ALBANESE'S BLACK REIGN (19/10/2023)
An evil black rain was falling
Down under within Australia,
Driven by Anthony Albanese
A man who cannot take failure.

He whines that we're all racists
Because we all dared to vote,
Not for Albanese's...

BLACK RAIN

Black rain is falling
From a loathsome black sky,
Even birds hide atop trees
Terrified to try to fly.

Black rain and black snow
Both spread across the ground,
Turning daytime into night
Within a small luckless town.

Pollution fills our...

SEED PEOPLE

Seed people are flowering
Within a doom-cursed forest,
Where only nightmares live
And nothing worthwhile rests.

Growing like spreading bushes
Seed people reach to the sky,
Hoping to feed on the birdlife
As innocent avians fly by.

BLOOD BAYOU

Blood Bayou is calling you
Enticing you from your home,
Hoping to make you set out
For a horrid, watery doom.

Gater-like men reside there
In the smelly, slimy dank,
Even they fear the waterway
Sticking to the mud-slick bank.

Screeching...

EYES IN THE DARK

Red eyes glowing in the dark
Watching innocents go by,
Following courting couples
Through the murky night.

Endless evil lurking nearby
In the loathsome dark,
Watching happy people
Late partying in the park.

THE GREEN DEEPS

Out of the green deeps
Comes slimy piscine horror,
Seeking out human food
Bring the beach to terror.

Deafening silence reigning

Above are people swimming
While below them evil creeps.

Finny tentacles following

Live entirely for today,

The past is long forgotten,
A lost continent.

Become one with us.

SHADOWY FIGURES (II)

Shadowy figures are soaring

To add to their bill of fare.

Then feasting through the night.

SCUTTLING

Scuttling fills the awful night

DARK MEETING

A dark meeting held late at night

ROAD TO NOWHERE

On the road to nowhere
Only losers ever travel,
Those whom hope abandoned
Whose lives and loves unravel.

An endless Macadam goes on
Right to the distant horizon,
Welcoming the broken-hearted
Whose reasons to live have gone.

NOBODY GETS OUT ALIVE

In the land of the dead
Nobody ever gets out alive,
Only toxic plant forms grow
And only worthless things can thrive.

In a place where no-one goes by choice
And nobody would ever call home,
Maleficent creatures are abounding
So never dare...

With nowhere safe to stay.

Evil dead things start to stir
All living beings run...

THE FACE OF TERROR

The Devil wears the face of terror
Upon his malformed evil head,
A face only a monster possesses
Pocked, torn, and scarlet red.

Broken bones protruding
From his leathery cheeks,
Yellow pustules abounding
From which fetid ichor seeps.

TERROR FROM THE DAWN OF TIME

Terror from the dawn of time
Long before true life began,
Æon-dead creatures run wild
In the current age of man.

Horrors far too foul to see
Without surely losing your mind,
Far to ghastly for human eyes
Hideous enough to drive you blind.

Unsuspecting holidaymakers
