Michael Fischer Poems

The skeleton key
to the universe
lies beneath our flesh.
...

The lovely couple hold hands,
parading the street at night.
They stop at his front door
and give emotions a dry run.
...

Death has studied me since birth!

He keeps his pen and pad close by,
taking note of my every downfall
...

Standing stiffly at the glass doors,
zombies wait to feed on my mind.
Please take this back...I don't want it!
...

Hm...I love you...
'cause...you snort when you laugh
And you laugh out of time
An'speaking of time...
...

You pinned me down and beat me senseless
at the time I was defenseless;
How does that make you feel?
...

Blackmail traps you inside its cage;
Your face is crimson with thundering rage.
You told your “friend” your greatest fears;
Fears you didn’t want others to hear.
...

Good evening my snow angel;
I am your gallant white knight
who's come to save you from dwindling hopes.
I bring with me my star lit love
...

The rains skip over the dour desert,
leaving it dusty and unpolished.
The immense heat is its pestilence,
as it drives away its potential guests.
...
