Some examples of poems by Surprisingly Happy Nick.
Dr Kemal And My Useless Ear Canal
The written word revels within its elegance, its beauty
But the spoken word resonates
Bringing with it radiance and splendour
Flooding my desires, fulfilling my want my need.
Oh how cruel how twisted, confining my yearning
Imprisoned, shut away from a world
Scattered with sound, Oh beautiful noise
My ear fails where it once inspired, it longs where it once loved
My purposeless ear clings to me, taunting
Abhorrent in its very nature, redundant of grace
Ignominious ear, revolting drum the skin decay
I once loved commotion and clamour, I shall not hear of it again.
(Psycho-Dynamic Poetry)
Mary
Everybody came to see Mary taking ecstacy
The hummingbird was watching too
With words of love he hummed to you.
We were all pleased to see Mary laughing merrily
The hummingbird was no fool
With words of love he hummed to you.
If they sought then they'd see Mary lives within melody
The hummingbird loves himself
Words of love he left without.
(Names And Morality)
Image
Even as she poses
She hides herself, pretending to be
It shows where it seeps
The sadness, those longing eyes
That for modesty, refuse to weep.
Even as she stares
To remember, for she forgets
Her vision a screaming shrill
If it passes, the tone sustains
Thoughts that won't perish leave her still
But screaming
Thrill me, thrill me
Yes she cries, cries
Thrill me, thrill me
Yes she cries.
