Paul Falconer Poems

Benito the mosquito was having a field day
Biting and siphoning my lifeblood away
Avaricious by nature, feasting on my bod
Bites were so painful, from this nasty little sod.
...

The time has come to get my life back on track
Time to look forward, I'm not going back.
Discarding awful memories, I'm glad
Away from people who treat me so bad.
...

Eight tenths of a second he had
Young boy dead, really too sad
Looks like there's no gun in his hand
Just  blood on the gravel, blood in the sand
...

No souls, no mercy, no nothing inside
With knives and weapons they went
For drugs, not food, they skin you alive
Ten evil men their money all spent
...

They say the cubs of Polar bears, are being poisoned every day
One thousand times over tolerable limits, results of Man's decay

Global warming and climate change, casts the hemlock in the Arctic
...

Let's start counting the bodies
Reveal the truth about femicide
Killers once walked away free
But from forensics they cannot hide
...

The Best Poem Of Paul Falconer

Benito The Mosquito

Benito the mosquito was having a field day
Biting and siphoning my lifeblood away
Avaricious by nature, feasting on my bod
Bites were so painful, from this nasty little sod.

For hours he hid and couldn't be seen
Using the curtain, a cunning little screen
At last when I started drifting off to sleep
He got to my ankles and bit me so deep.

But greed was his downfall on that fateful night
Too much to drink, as he staggered in flight
So heavy and awkward, he struggled to fly
Tally ho, old chap - prepare to die.

With the greatest of glee
klapped him hard against the wall
Burst into a red bomb, and died screaming
Mzanzi, I had a ball!

Paul Falconer Quotes

'There is nothing so rare as common sense'

Marriage is what you make of it. It can be an ocean of happiness for some or a mountain of despair for others. Sadly in modern times, it's more of the latter.

Despite the world being so messed up, I'm very happy to be in it

The more time I spend with animals, the less I like people
