10 Hypnotists

10 Hypnotists

A Poem by theta sigma
"

A little homage to 10 little Indians . And the queen of crime.

"
10 Hypnotists dive off a boat,
9 came back and one didn't float.
9 hypnotists have a marathon,
8 set off, except one shot with a gun.
8 hypnotists rob a bank.
7 left, with one in a tank.
7 hypnotists got all the dosh.
6 left the island and one lost in the wash.
6 are now totally rich.
5 had casinos and one lost the pitch.
5 buy yachts and go for a swim.
4 come back, now that's grim.
4 find the law at the door.
3 got off light, except one on the floor.
3 run in haste on new soil.
2 evade capture and one only boils.
2 playing the waiting game .
1 plays one on one.
they play with revolvers .
1 switched blanks and now its over.
1 sits alone in a chair.
a suicide bid ends it there.

Ha!! Theta! I love this..the rhyme is pristine..
The countdown works brilliantly in execution of intensity and decent into a "Lord of the flies" type madness..not sure exactly why that popped in mine, but it did.
... this boys club castaway survival with riches and they all wind up in stiches thing..loved.
And so witty and truely i laughed out loud several times..

5 yachts and go for a swim.
4 come back, now that's grim.
4 find the law at the door.
3 got off light, except one on the floor.
3 run in haste on new soil.

Bout there the speed picks up and your thinkin..oh f**k this ain turnin out no kinda good.

Love and wishes for guiltless booty!
(hope i can get mih RL functioning..prompt has bern defunct..would like to keep this)
