Ted Sheridan Poems

This is for you...who called me a dreamer
if I thought for one minute I could shut your mouth....
How dare you tell me to shove it up my ass...
I'm not the name caller here....it's you
...

Last Tuesday afternoon
when you stood outside the Catholic school
waiting for the young girls short skirts to catch a breeze
and blow you....into Friday's confessional...
...

I can sum up my life in a hundred words or less....
I don't like ketchup on hotdogs...mustard and onions only
and that goes for burgers too....
Unless forced by necessity I never drink light beer...
...

I want to have a big party
Invite 1 million or more Americans
To all meet at the borderline
And then we immigrate into Mexico....
...

as long as she doesn't think about it
it never happened
and if it did
it never mattered....
...

I was up all hours last night
insomniac that am
...

somewhere in my darkness there was a spark
today it ignited rare thoughts of you
only seconds before....
I had stuck the cold barrel of a gun
...

The noisome breath of his unbridled hatred
wilts even the healthiest of Life's vines
...

Bang Bang! Bang Bang!
'Your dead', shouted Jimmy
...

True Horror is Truth
Can you handle the horror
...
