Charisma Rhapsody
​

​I was charismatic
I was born Farrouk Bulsara
I formed a band that is named
After the opposite of king
I performed at Live Aid 1985
My surname is named after the Roman Messenger God
I gave it my all when I contracted
An incurable disease but kept it hidden
A movie was named after my song
I bit the dust at 45 years old in 1991
But the show went on without me
Who am I?

Never Going Down

​I was the face of Marvel Comics
I created heroes such as
Spiderman, the X-Men, the Avengers and other superheroes
With Jack Kirby' s help
I made cameo appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
I am a legend to my fans
I made my cameo in Teen Titans Go to the Movies
Who am I?

On Social Media
​

​I am a creature
That lives under a bridge
I live in shadows
To avoid turning into stone
By sunlight
I am known to prey on
And follow people on social media
That put me in social media jail
Three goat's defeated me
When they crossed my bridge
Who am I?

For Money
​

​I am not an enemy
I am not an ally
I play both sides
For profit
I am called a turncoat
I am another word for treason
I am a word similar to betrayal
Who am I?

What is Light-Dera?
​

​A realm of light
Formerly known as the Light World
Now called Light-Dera
Because of the regions
With names that escaped me
For the moment
This realm of light
Frozen in the modernized medieval period
Appears to be connected to Heaven
A realm of angels and good souls
Paradise
A realm of happiness and delights that reminds
Me of the Garden of Eden
Purgatory
A realm where souls are forced to wait endlessly
Limbo
A realm between the living and the dead
Where unrest souls are unable to move on
To the afterlife
Hell
A fiery realm of sinners, demonic souls and heathens
And the Underworld
Or what is called the Netherworld
A realm of dead souls with unfinished business
The world of light is also connected to
Other realms full of living and breathing
Inhabitants
Such as
The Dark World
A realm of darkness
That comes in form of the bleak desert
Depicting a setting from ancient Egypt
And the ancient Middle Eastern times
The Gray World
A realm that is gray gloomy grim
Frozen in the Colonial period
Through the Victorian Period
The Renora World
A realm made of realms
That looks like the nine realms of A share
Fused with Ancient Greek
Ancient Roman times
And regions of the swamps
Deserts
Mountains
Urban areas
Rainforests
Forests
Plains
Beaches
Amazon's
Islands
Arctics
Subterranean
Meadows
Fields
Medieval villages
And steam punk cities
The Spirit world
Is a realm of ghosts
And unrest souls
With infinite doors
To other realms in time
And in space
This leaves the Ancient World
A realm forever frozen
In Medieval Europe
Filled with magical wonders
And gods
A realm of light
Is connected to
The mortal world
That remains unseen
To readers but depicted
In various fairytales

Signs of Power Manifestations by DC Comics and Marvel Comics

The signs of power manifestations
Occurs when the individual
Becomes emotionally distress
Hit puberty
Or
Develops minor injuries
Such as headaches
Or stomachaches
Mental distress
Or
Physical distress
Power manifestations
Ties into physical mutation
Because when a superhuman
Fully activate their superpowers
They begin to physically mutate
Yet their physical mutation
Is believed to be part of
An ailing affliction that some doctors
Can't identify
There is no cure for Superhuman Syndrome
Because it is not a curse
But a gift inherited from their ancestors or their parents 

The Untouchable Pied Piper of R&B

Known as the Pied Piper of R&B
With a reputation and taste for
Women under 21 and women in their 20's and 30's
He briefly married to his former protégé
When he produced her album and created
A song in regards to age being a number
His taste in younger women
That he preyed upon with a promise
To make them into stars in exchange
For laying with him in bed
An inappropriate and sickening price
That he used on female dancers
Singers and songwriters
He got away with the crimes
In relation to making a sex tape
Of him sleeping with an underage girl
And whizzing on her
That court case became a parody
On the Boondocks
And the Chapelle Show
Yet it is not that funny
Because they identified the girl
On the tape but not the Pied Piper
This allowed him to make music
Go on so many tours
And prey on girls
That he can date
Sleep with
Possess
Abuse
Or imprisoned
His surviving victims
Are lucky to come forward
During to Me too movement
When new allegations revealed
That he has been holding the other girls captive
In a cult like setting
That he denied
Like the previous allegation against him
Shame that one particular song
"You are not alone" has a different meaning
Wonder what happen if the Pied Piper of R&B
Sang the song
I now dislike
He knows he will not get away with this
Now that the mini docu-series
On him through his victims' words
Added nails to his coffin

Salem Haven Center Opened and in Session

The building of Salem Haven Center
Opened on January 9th 2019
So many students born with superpowers


That they inherited from their ancestors
On their mother or father’s side of the family
Along with their ancestors’, parents, relatives or grandparents’ reputations


As superheroes or supervillains
The purpose of this enormous house turned boarding school and safe house
Is to teach them to become independent


And create a path for themselves
Rather than follow in their families footsteps
They are assigned dorm rooms on the first through eighth floors


And dorm rooms
At four dorm buildings
Within Salem Haven Center


There are also four classroom buildings
A school library
A massive workout building


A common room adjunct cafeteria room
Two apartment buildings
A football field


And a track field
Salem Haven is cloaked
By an affluent neighborhood


To conceal the students’ identities
These students are ready to enjoy
Their fresh start while following the rules
And live normal lives among humans

Arrows
​

​Shoot the arrows
In the sky
You lucky archers
From the non-fiction world
 
Shoot your arrows
Into the sky
Archers
From the fiction world
 
Shoot the arrows
In the sky
Like no tomorrow
 
As today
Is another
Day to live

Map to Illinois College
​

​The map of Illinois College
Leads you
To your destination
If you get lost
At night
 

Paper Lanterns
​

​Paper lanterns
Blossom
At the festival

Wall of Postcards
​

​Her wall
Filled with pictures
In form of collages
With postcards
 

Three Panda Bears

​

​The pandas together
Like the 3 little bears
In the fairytale
Only in China
 

Book of Inner Demons
​

​Stared at the heavens
For the first time
At the break of dawn

She came to class
With a smile
In her eyes
And sadness on her face

He wore a mask
Of lies
To conceal
His real past

She met her fate
When the Angel of Death
Sealed her demise
With a kiss

He met the girl
Who watched his father
Die in her arms
When his revenge against her
Turned into an obsession of her

She let her three children live
After what happened
To her

He relived
A painful memory
Of his broken childhood

She looked up
Other ways to
Cure her depressive sanity

He is rendered weak
And completely confused
After all of this

They lived
An unexplained life
Now turned into books

Never to
Be revealed
For all eternity

My Poetic Apology
​

​Issued my apologies
After leaving a trail
Of poetic words

From the dark side
Behind
On a campus

Full of promises
After seeking proper
Help for suppressing

Demons in form
Of negative emotions
Born from two words

That young people
Die for
When their antidotes and cures

Did not help them
At least I am
The lucky one

To live through this
While looking at nature
That kept me going

Then wrote words
On a private level
In some books

That will never
Be revealed
Decades later
 

Courage
​

​Courage is in your heart
When you relax
Courage is a voice
That tell you to take
Deep breaths
Courage is karma
From within
Courage is the source
Of actions
Courage makes you
A soldier of your war
Against the inner demons
That wants to break you to pieces
 

Unlimited Poems
​

​Left unlimited poems
For the readers
As they uncover
My real name
As the poems
Are written
Under an alias name
That the people
Will never know
 

Ms. O Bared Witness To…
​

​Saw the angels fall
From the sky
As the demons
Assume human forms
The humans pit in the middle
As the monsters fight
Some of the fallen became
The dark angels
As other fallen became human
The remaining fallen became demons
When the whole world ends
With three ways to start the apocalypse

Feminicide a.k.a Femicide
​

​He has no remorse
After murdering a young woman
Who preferred the company of women
 
He is a pure homophobe because of his Christian beliefs
About marriage between a man and woman
And not between two women
 
He spouted his sexist beliefs against women
Being troublesome shameless harlots
He implied to killing his mother
 
Because she betrayed his father
By sleeping with his paternal uncle
He sits in prison serving a life sentence
 
Without parole
Still spouting his anti-female theory
About women
 
Thus gaining misogynistic followers
Who believed his words
At the same time he made enemies in prison
 
That explains why he is stabbed
In the neck within the prison showers
When his blood is mixed in with the shower waters
