Today's fun - make a beat poem - Too cool, Man

Type a name, phrase -anything in poem generator-and it will make a beat acrostic (item reads down -first letters) . Example "Democratic Underground":

Kansas: A Liturgy

Don't come to me if you need pity
Entering a near
My lungs begin to tear
Oh, what do you expect me to do?
Call him psychotron
Ready to pounce at the touch of a button
At mach speed we engage
Thanks for the information don't need no
I like the way that you stand in line
Call him psychotron

Used to control and command
Never mind the tree
Don't come to me if you need pity
Entering a near
Ready to pounce at the touch of a button
God something must've gone wrong
Ready to pounce at the touch of a button
Oh, what do you expect me to do?
Used to control and command
Never mind the tree
Don't come to me if you need pity

It's a rough time here at DU in some ways. I was thinking about the torment of people who were once here but now lurk and those still posting but feeling despair. The bolding is mine.


On Interstate 90

Pretending not to notice
Only left alone
Only left alone
Run for cover, run

Blah, blah, blah my soul to keep
An insane place, with insane moves
Now with new hope some will be proud
Now with new hope some will be proud
Escape... you're joking
Don't ask what you can do for you country

Sedate him, heavily
Only left alone
Up on my soapbox, a leader
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Sedate him, heavily

Only left alone
Now with new hope some will be proud
Can you help me occupy my brain?
Escape... you're joking

The venom never goes away
Run for cover, run
Only left alone
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Sedate him, heavily

A Thorn in Red China's Rose

Man I'm gonna try again
A retreat for the damned
You realize you are prey for me
Not even close
A retreat for the damned
Revelation come to pass
Don't look now to israel

Gotta' short between the earphones

Killing for religion
Revelation come to pass
Eat your heart out on a plastic tray
Barren land that once filled a need
Spilling blood across the land

A Thorn in Red China's Rose

Here I come again
If you're fighting to live
Love and war they say all is fair
Love and war they say all is fair
As the money that you bet
Revelation has come to pass
You belong to me

D is for the Dumb views he espouses
O is for the Oddness of his ways
N is for the Nazis he admires
A is for the Asshole that he is
D is for the Darkness of his soul

T is for the Torture he believes in
R is for the Rotten way he treats his employees
U is for his Ugly scowling face
M is for the Money he inherited & uses
P is for the Prayers to God that he won't be elected

Thank You Miami Skyscraper

Escape... you're joking
Life's fabric is corrupt
Escape... you're joking
Country can spare
Tremble you weakings, cower in fear
Is turn around, run through it man
On judgement day
Never disclose, never betray

Foreclosure of a dream
Random turmoil builds in me
Angry again, angry again, angry ow
Uneasy feeling, burning out my eyes
Don't you give me any orders

A Ballad from the Far East

Burning inside
Eradication of earths
Receive a reprieve and be a pioneer
Now you've acquitted me
I like the way that you stand in line
Eradication of earths

Burning inside
One man rules the earth
Now you've acquitted me
Governed by laws set up by me
One man rules the earth

Then I started seeing "bad omens" in my head
Offering their death kiss to me
Mankind has got to know
Blood stains on my hands and
Satan rears his ugly head, to spit into the wind
Then I started seeing "bad omens" in my head
Offering their death kiss to me
New ideas will surely get by
Ensuing power vacuum

Mankind has got to know
Ensuing power vacuum

New ideas will surely get by
Offering their death kiss to me
We run for youthanasia

Satan rears his ugly head, to spit into the wind
Kill them all ... ooh ... oh you're a god!
I will make for you
New ideas will surely get by
New ideas will surely get by
Ensuing power vacuum
Reminisce in the attic

Disco Dance for Congress

And when all is won and lost
No contest, nowhere to run
They can't be seen with me
Hurling through the air
Rules you break and just let it slide
Out to change the world
Part of the master plan
Out to change the world
Call him psychotron
Endangered species, caged in fright
No contest, nowhere to run
Endangered species, caged in fright
