It's hard enough to be a headless horseman
But imagine being a headless businessman!
I try to sell my products
To all that pass by,
But it's impossible
To sell anything without a little lie!
So I put my head against a wall
And say my head is in a hole...
They look at me very strange,
And keep walking until they're out of range.
It's hard to live with no head,
And even harder to lie in bed!
I need to make up a plan..
After all, I'm still a man!
So what can I do
To persuade your friends and you?
Must I be a magician
And really emphasize on superstition?
Or can I steal a mannequin's head
And walk around like a normal undead?
But here I stand now...
Waiting and wondering how I can be normal again.
With my head in a fake hole,
And only a briefcase to my name!

Thank You For Entering
LOL! I instantly saw the humor and yet downright reactions you were talking about. to me this would symbolize about how a person may look different on the outside does not count what is truly on the inside. I do like the magician angle at the end of your poem here becaus eit leaves alot to the imagination example how you lost your head in the first place and what business do you do ect. oh well. nice work all round and keep it up n good luck -
Cute cute! Love this, it's so funny and thought provocking. A few of your rhyms seam a little forsed but your doing well.
keep it upp, never stop writing.
*peace*
