Original Poetry by Mary McIntyre-Terranson Once, when my soul was truly ensconced in the west So Present and Home I saw a Timber Wolf, who In the Infinite "wisdom" of those with thumbs
Wherefore art thou? It's been much too long Since last we met My lover awaits At my window The portal to another world In his heated embrace.
I'm scared of the dark, She says. In a wave of humble confession. No, I'm terrified of it.
You ooze confidence Seeping through that sleazy smile But I know just what you are Won't fool me anymore.
You are the scumbag king The narcissistic liar Manipulative coward Embodiment of Evil. The snake that slithered Hissing secrets That led to Eve's mortal mistake.
You look at me I avert my eyes It's like avoiding staring Straight into the sun. Like I will be blinded Should I look too long.
My mind may seem like a dark place to most Full of monsters, untold horrors That are present in my artistic expressions But I do not fear the same monsters that others might. I do not fear false monsters.
In a world where we worship False prophets and pop stars Instead of praising intelligence And peace makers...
I always get asked, "Why is your poetry so serious and dark? Why don't you write about something happy?" I could be wrong on this, but aren't poets supposed to be Somewhat angsty? The world isn't all rainbows and unicorns. It has real pain and suffering Sadness, disappointment, death....Sarah Palin.
You know that feeling Deep down in your gut That tells you When something isn't right? I ignored it.
I am that dying star Hurdling through space at unimaginable speeds Leaving a trail of light in my wake I will not let you see me fall...
A zombie courted a pirate wench Upon the seven seas Decaying smiles across the miles He only wished to please.
Day and night, I ref an internal fight. Nothing seems to win, nothing loses life. Of all the thoughts and all the prizes, I never once knew what a pointless life meant.
Chosen generation. It is time. Shout your victory and let it be Mine.

2 birds, Dave and Bob are hanging out in their favorite tree in the backyard of a nice, upper middle-class home belonging to a small, but entertaining family. Dave and Bob are perched on the branch closest to the house, peering into the large sliding glass door, curiously, as they await their friend Larry's arrival.
Dave: Hey man, ya got any seed?
Bob: Nope, I'm dry dude - But Larry's supposed to be here with the goods soon. I'll hook ya up, buddy.
Dave: Wow, you'd do that for me? I love you man!
Bob: Yeah, ok Dave, Chill - You're freaking me out, dude!
Dave: Ok, cool, alright man.....So...Bob....Whatcha lookin' at?
Bob: Shhhhh! She might hear you!
Dave: Ummm...who Bob?
Bob: That chick....see, she's there in front of the window, looking RIGHT AT US! She's really weird dude.
I saw her in the garden the other day - she saw a big, fat worm - and she didn't eat it!!!!! It crawled right
onto her shoe, and she kicked it off like she was AFRAID of it!
Dave: That's just messed up, man....hey Bob....got any seed?
Bob: No, I told you, dammit - we're waiting for Larry! Remember?
Dave: Ummmm....
Bob: Cool, here comes Larry with the stuff!
(Larry Flies in and lands next to Bob on the branch)
Larry: What's up guys? Whatcha lookin' at?
Bob: That chick - she's one of the humans that lives in the house. She's always watching me, so I decided to keep a close eye on HER.
Larry: Cool - people watching! I love it! Hey guys, sorry I'm late - I've never been to your tree before - I like what you've done with the place.
Bob: Shhhhh! She's REALLY watching us now!
Dave: Hey Larry....ya got any seed?
Larry: Yeah, just a sec....wow - she IS watching us! I want a closer look.
(Larry flies toward the girl)
Bob: LARR - LARRY! WATCH OUT FOR THE -
***THUMP***
----glass door.....hey man, are you ok?
Larry: (partially conscious) Uhhhhhggg....
Dave: Heeeheee - don't feel bad Larry, I've lived here for years and I still fly into the sliding glass door once a week, AT LEAST!
Bob: Dave, you're just an idiot - shut up!
Larry: Where am I? What happened?
Bob: Sliding glass door, buddy - they use windex - its just not right!
Larry: Bummer man - well I'll remember that next time. Did the chick see me do that?
Bob: No, she missed it, luckily. But look! She's back again!
Dave: Hey, she's kinda cute Bob....
Larry: Dude, you're sick - she's not even your species!
Bob: Don't mind him - he's kinda, ya know - how do I put this? A DUMBASS!
Larry: Hey, what's she doin'? She's opening the door....
Bob: LARRY! FLY AWAY! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LARRY!
Larry: I CAN'T MY WING'S BROKE!
(Bob and Dave fly back to their tree and watch in horror as the girl opens the door and comes outside. She bends down, looks at Larry, lovingly, and dumps an handful of birdseed beside him. Bob and Dave exchange surprised glances, and fly back to Larry.)
Dave: Hey man, I thought you were a gonner!
Larry: (smiling and stretching his "hurt" wing) Works every time!
Bob: You sneaky little bastard! How'd ya do it?
Dave: Yeah - how come I don't score when I crash into the door?
Larry: First of all, Dave - you're just dumb - Second, I've been observing people for a long time. It's a hobby of mine. I know how they think. They are quite simple creatures, stupid really - like Dave here. I know how to manipulate them.
Bob: You lying bastard! You know you didn't fly into the glass on purpose! Admit it Larry!
Larry: Ok man, ya got me - it was an accident, and my wing really DOES hurt!
Bob: I have to admit, you almost had me fooled - until the part about manipulating humans. Your imaginary scheme would NEVER work though. Sure, maybe once in awhile, but who would be dumb enough to do that over an over and....
Dave: Hey Larry, Bob ---- got any seed?
Bob: Can't you see I'm having and intelligent conversation? Do me a favor Dave, and go fly into some glass!
Larry: You might not wanna say that.....
Dave: Wheeeeeeeeee!
****THUMP*****
Larry: (To Bob) Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Larry, Bob, and Dave: SEEEEEED!!!!
