Side of the Hill – Varied Poems...
Nick Armbrister
Freeze Dried Human
The man had lost his canoe
It floated off down the river
He was stuck now
Up shit creek without a canoe or paddle
He thought about swimming the river
But it was a scary thought
Being so wide and long
If he did swim
Would he cross it?
Or go downstream?
An idle contemplation
He would wait for a floating log
And then hitch a ride
There as if by fate came a log!
He doggy paddled out to it
Getting aboard was tricky for it moved
Then he was on it and lay down
The river bank sped past
It was a swift current
Mother Nature aided his escape
Now the law men wouldn’t catch him
The freeze dried human was with him
Safely wrapped up in foil
It was protected in his lower pocked
Later on he would eat the human
After finding a place to hide up
Winter was coming and he needed time
Time till spring to rest and gain strength
Jail had weakened his body
But not his mind or determination
He was a criminal but innocent
Having been framed for another’s crime
Later he would have revenge
And freeze them all and eat them
Ah look there’s an island!
I think I will land there and hide
It was six months till spring
Then his revenge would be searing
He would enjoy the wait...
Purple Chair
Daddy sat in a purple chair to drink his whisky
It was his throne and he was mighty proud of it
Being the king to his own empire
An empire of one drunken man and his booze
And a purple chair made from plastic
Not to mention a red toilet
Straight from a 70s porn film
Perfect for the drunken man
King of his own world
Where he was boss
Of his chair and bottle
And toilet
