Nor echoes past the dying sun,
Gifts given gone but not...

In Words Alas Drown I~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Madam! rhymes I defy,
for they displease my eye.

‘I’m Ava,’ I write free verse
in words alas drown I

she’s level-headed guide.
Drinks tea with me at high noon
sings a boring,...

High up in the hills

Comes to close
He falls and knocks
Over the casket
The dead man rolls out
Onto the floor, then opens
Up his eyes and
Then tells...

Wish She Would Show Me Some LegWish she would show me some leg an eighty-year old guy said.

For cocking his leg on the yew

Dogs-be-gone!
All the neighborhood dogs I can see,
have now lined up at MY back yard tree.
What a nerve they’ve all got
to be marking that spot.
Dogs-be-gone! That is MY place to pee!...
