Penny Dropped for Derek

Penny dropped for Derek. Derek awoke Nothing on his mind Nothing in front Nothing behind And there and then decided He would become hedonistic Since he was the only person That mattered He wore an old dress His mother once left And a pair of steel toed boots He gelled his hair spiky And sprayed himself with air freshener He went outside into the world. In a bus shelter Derek kicked and punched His victim bled on the ground An old woman, almost killed her He strolled on Into a park And pushed a toddler Into a pond He strolled on Derek walked into a butchered meat warehouse And swung on a hook Letting his dress blow up and out As he kicked the corpses harder and harder He had fun and left in chuckling laughter. He walked up a hill Exposing himself to a football team He pissed and spun in circles Like a sprinkler Rotating And spraying Piss landed on a woman’s dachshund And when she complained He struck her with the back of his hand And he laughed. He walked down a hill Derek entered a baker’s shop Helping himself to the freshly made stock Running up alleys in his mothers old frock He puffed and panted And then defecated On a doorstep He strolled on Derek got onto a number 9 bus And head-butted a pensioner Helpless and blind The police turned up to take him away And he laughed saying ‘Who cares?’ In prison he punched and kicked And was sedated With injections Which he hated Since it made him unable to be himself Hedonistic and doing what he likes. So he waited a while And then killed himself Using blanket as noose And choking to death.

I'm into poetry that flows through me, more as an emotional art-form than a traditional construction, but I do appreciate most of it.
