Best Bongos Poems
Taking It Easy In RetirementSo much for my ideas of slowing down,
Taking it easy just sitting watching TV.
I moved to a peaceful seaside town,
Since then I have found a few things occupy me.
I play bridge at least three times every week,
Read poems with a group on Thursday afternoons,
For extra...

Oh No, Oh NoOh No! Oh No! What has my son done? I hope it’s, not already to late!
He lives at a fraternity house, and surely, you know THAT intense mental state.
March has St. Patrick’s Day, Spring Break, and has, of course, Easter in it, too.
So they decided...

Light Verse
Sheep And Other AnimalsSheep
next door to 19 chimneys
and 'the dark satanic mills'
a flock of sheep is grazing
oblivious in the hills.
Other Animals
goblin sharks and pangolins
sea pigs, star-nosed moles
mata matas, sugar gliders
shoats and water voles.
aye-ayes, dik-diks, wobbegongs
chicken turtles, loons
shoebills, snipes and yeti crabs
and cozumel raccoons.
pink fairy armadillos
bilbys, 52-hertz whales
the red-lipped...

Good Night and Sweet Dreams of the DayA whispering word is a whispering void cantering over airspace. Clear but unclear. Oh the sheer detectable ideology of the fungal worm. Chitter chatter consume. Consumption is the eruption. And like a fine wine to a palate leaves no bereft anarchical wonderful wound. It leaves...

He Brought Us MusicMany times when I would here a song, I would get an almost joyful longing, but I could never pinpoint the moment in my past that I wished for so deeply.
I would feel a certain peaceful joy, hovering just beyond my reach.
And as I stared...

Enclosed Rhyme
Pizzas Jumping Over Garlic Bread With Coleslaw Hairbands and Onion Ring PiercingsIt is not a mind altering parade of substances that questions a rotting ship. It is not a threefold tankard buried in an Abyssinia besom of beads for only a technological advance actually shows such a word and such a word is neither an acute...

WarriorBorn in Ivory Coast
but never would I boast.
Raised in the Democratic Republic of Congo
playing the bongos, but couldn’t make it my logo.
On a quest from east to west,
I made Cameroon my nest.
But the traveler in me took me to Paris
only to find out it was...

An Opulent Donut Wears a SuitOpulence is not flatulence especially in a house. And onion peel is very useful for persuading a plant to float in a prism. It is often great to watch a pea boat sail past. Rather remarkable it is. Round swirling orb. The balancing of a...

Tablecloth Telling the TimeA weasel wibble wobbling can be said to have ingested copious amounts of indemonstrable indelible ink today as it soared into doorways, hallways, cloakrooms, and buffet tables. Buffet tables are neither buffaloes or bongos. In fact they are a pleasant sight to behold. Many colours....

KittensA translucent snowfall is far better off financially than a transmitted radio signal. This is not monetary moments. This is mystifying mystical movements. Falling thick. Sticking. Good. Now kindly remove the heavy iron stockings from that shire horse. It really requires delicacy. Hay is a...

Smell the RosesBe Bop Bop, Hey!
The bongos sound hollow today
Burned out is me
Countless years of intensity
Toasted to black
Headed for a real heart attack
Never thinking this possible
To a man invincible
Stop to smell the roses they say
Nope, they're just hay
Woke up a couple weeks ago
Thought I had died
And
The...

Do you…puke also

…summon the Janitor/custodian

…measure the splatter radius
…Quit – because...
