Best Bite To Eat Poems

Sipping cherry limeade, driving in the car parade, 
we're cruising in the Lone Star state.
Didn't want a bucket seat; the thing it couldn't beat, 
was sitting up close to your date.
One hand on the wheel of daddy’s Oldsmobile, 
my arm around my brown-eyed girl,
feeling pretty...

As dawn unfolds today beyond my fractured windowpane,
a breeze beguiles the ashen drapes. Like snakes they slip aside,
revealing wanton worlds that race and run aground, insane,
immersed in scenes obscene that savants strive to mask and hide.

Outside, the twisted streets retreat. Last night they seemed so...

The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.
And He scatters His poems below and above.
You can see a poem singing on a tree branch at dawn,
or falling down as dew on a neighbor's next door lawn.

There's a poem in a soldier's returning smile,
as he...

It took time for the soldier to realize,

that no one was truly self-sufficient,

after the raids and the bombings, hunger materialized,

and life seemed insufficient,

the villagers took refuge in a form of weakness,

as they watched their government fail,

and their lives sail,

unable to ask for any kind of...

Disheveled and dirty she sat 
A guy walking by just spat 
It caught her off guard as she wiped it away 
Wanted to move but decided to stay

She looked forlorn and beat 
Begging for a bite to eat 
I approached and offered her a tenner
Her...

She sat there waiting, patiently,
Assured of her success,
Indifferent to the certainty 
That she would cause duress.

She'd spun a trap so beautiful
It seemed a work of art,
Its gossamer perfection
Like the poison in a dart.

My bird's eye view allotted me
A close-up of the scene,
The window pane the...

Fuzzy socks and crocs, oh my
Try some, buy some
Wear them high
Pair them, share them
To be nice
Take them home
For half the price

Crocs on socks are best displayed
When you lead 
A big parade
When your socks
Are clean and pressed
Other folks
Will be impressed

Wear your socks to beat the crowd
Fuzzy...

Vance Plans a Vasectomy

By Elton Camp

Vance heard a vasectomy was the way to go
He didn’t know a lot about it, though

But had read all that he wanted to see:
That no more children is the guarantee

In the waiting area he had to have a seat
Since the...

Not Like We Did

Sometimes I wonder about the good old days
Growing up and parting ways
Sometimes wish I could have stayed a kid	
They have good times now but not like we did
Painting ghosts on store fronts for Halloween
Stop at Mike's and play the pinball machine
Go for...

I approach you 
with these fragile 
hands, begging 
for a bite to eat.

You see it's been
hard for me, living
in these streets...

Life's been cruel 
to me !!

I haven't slept in 
weeks, haven't
showered in months.

I get kicked 
and spit on.

I'm walking around 
in these crowded 
streets, alienated...

They ventured in to Amsterdam to have a little break.
Alas it all went very wrong when they tried a slice of cake.
Before that fateful moment it had all gone very well,
Dinners, walks and seeing sights – and then they really fell.

They stopped to have a...

This is how it all started. My brother and me were watching Larry
King on CNN. It was his talk show. His special guest was Dr. Ellen
Crystall. She had written a book called Silent Invasion. It was about
UFO's in a little Township called Pinebush. His topic...

In the midst of the 
    asphalt homeland 
One does see 
   Some natural life at times 
As I sit on a bench 
    in a park 
on the Lower East Side 
   a squirrel...

Can't decide if there's anything ever  worth sayin'
Done a lot in 23 years but feel like I've done nothin'
Opportunity cost, I hear the clock tickin'
Killin' time in Vietnam people watchin'
Seeing the way these ppl live has me thinkin'
Seeing the way these ppl live kills...
