Premium Member A Rocker and a Cigar
I may not be happy
with the way things are,
I may express dissatisfaction
In my local bar,
But I refuse to burn down
my street in extreme reaction
to some civil distraction--
seems to me somewhat bizarre.
I must take care of business
in my own neighborhood,
Being no part of any fringe faction.
Give...

Premium Member The Cigar Box
The cigar box reposed upon the closet shelf for nigh on fifty years.
Oft his family wondered what it held.  Perhaps some treasured souvenirs?
The old man, a veteran, had fought in the European Theater of Operations.
He never talked about that nor did he ever boast...

Dip Your Cigar In Your Whisky
You say that you're drowning
Cos your good girl is gone
Gone with her makeup
and her swollen silicon

You're begging for pity
Well here is a plan
Dip your cigar in your whisky
And take it all like a man

You say that your world
Is falling apart
And you good girl's departure
Is eating...

A Man and His Cigar
A man in his later years enjoys a cigar.
He holds a fat brown rolled stogie with his fingers to his lips.
He puckers at the end of the stimulating stump, pulling a large puff.
He lights his vice with a blow torch.
Blue, red, yellow flame jets out...

Premium Member A Puff of Cigar
quit that smoke...

cause, if you got hook..
oh my!! take a look..

lungs will turn out black...
As health be on bad luck...
As problems starts to pact..
You'll need some bucks...

Either remain or stay away...
So you'll save another day...
To live a little bit longer...
Far from any trace...

Close But No Cigar
Close but no Cigar.

I have tried,
obviously, you don't mind.
I heartily fell and stumbled,
but I stood up in the midst of battled.

I have cried,
obviously, you don't mind.
I have knelt down with tears falling,
for loving you is a gambling.

I have dried,
obviously, you don't mind.
Heating up myself for...

Premium Member His Black Powder Cigar
Once had a boyfriend handsome,
    he had a black motorcycle that roared;
oh, how we soared down the highway wild and carefree,
      he loved black powder cigars and whiskey;

The Cigar Box
I have a cigar box with corners
frayed and lid barely holding on.

Its contents being small things I've 
made and objects that I've found.

An odd-shaped rock, a marble, a feather,
are three of many that lasted well.

But the little objects are no better
than the stories they could...

Cigar In the Sky
The sunset is golden above the lake
The dreamy surreal scene clouds make
But deep to the east eerie mist forms on that lake
Something mysterious, celestial like a splinter in the eye makes soul ache

For there is something in the sky
That one sees from the corner of...

Premium Member No Offense But You Stink
Someone smells like smoke.  I can barely stand to sit here.
Clenching my teeth, I have a headache, everywhere near.
A friendly smoker has sat next to me, oh, dear.
I jump up, because her smell is killing me, so clear.

I am an asthmatic, and I cannot...

Premium Member Undeniable
This Friday night was as-black-as-coal, he ignites a blackberry-colored cigar,
His belly is filled with fried chicken, Hennessy, and caviar.

This is, without-a-doubt, undeniable…

The intoxication is accredited, and honest-to-goodness notarized,
The spirit hypnotizes critical-thinking, the caterpillar forgets the past as a butterfly.

This is, without-a-doubt, undeniable…

Each step is measured,...

My Life As a Smoke Ring
With a nice cigar
I blow a perfect smoke ring,
And the ring holds briefly.  

I consider that focus of energy-- 
The snapping of my jaw.
The ring succumbs to the evening:

       Hard-edged blue smoke
      ...
