(You Can't fool everyone)


1#      fooled by the sun leading the perfect crowd, one cow left behind.

2#     twisting lines, he shepherds a flock into a dark corner

3#     endless buffet in question,  his...

Haiku Licentioso 
('They who quaff this cup shall see god
and The Magdalen')

with the *powder
that goes in the tea
comes the instructions:
''dump into the brew
mix salaciously
drink licentiously
and feel like a libertine''

''caution's for the birds
toss the birds back into the leaves
grab a broom
aim for and dip on the...

The Shoot Out At The KOA Corral


Six more days of dust and heat
along this lonely trail, 
Although I thought
'Til I caught sight
of a horse, quite sick, and frail
There was no saddle on his back
no bridle and no reins
and as I...

Haiku Alley

five and dime
jes' lookin' aroun'
give me dime
give me five
and I'll give ya' dime to take yo' time
that's givin' ya' zen in change

there ain't no rhyme
in the zen of five and dime
and time lives only
in the jail of yo' darkest dreams
beyond the dark, beyond the...

Dogpatch Haiku Anthem

wailin' blue-tick blues
heard only beyond the ear
struttin' your rooster
in boots just made for
walkin' all over the bull,
pick it up and
use it
or hit the road!
'cause if ya' cain't crow
ya' ain't got bull or zen

death ain't got no sting
like slappin' the bull
spiders no good
unless they're...

(alternately titled: ah me go march'n home on derange)

I'll play the devil's advocate, yet
prepare a stance with pitchfork
     against misinterpreted faux attempt
     to describe, how whet

patrol, police, and poison tranquil casa...

It's fun time at “Old Uncle Jack's Corral”
I'm here to tickle your fancy
That's just below your “you know what”
Things are getting a little chancy

I'll give you a hint it isn't your armpits
Or even the crook of your neck
And it isn't behind your wiggly ears
So where...

Wild Stallion
Chased by modern cowboys
Hooves fly in pursuit of freedom

Fantasies of a Lovers Corral invaded my mind
Pronounced reality I could no longer find
I didn’t know, one could be turned on so much
It was just my tenderfoot that he did touch
Forbidden thoughts excited even the most conservative side of me
Could this be?
It was electric, I...

even though Correa has finally 
granted asylum to Julian 
so that the empire’s little concubines 
in England & Sweden can’t 
pass him off to the growling beasts
salivating & waiting in the shadows of
the US (hands twitching fervently
in seething anticipation, all ready to
to torture him far...

I have waited centuries for your touch,
And even now I can barely get enough.

I cry to you, baby don’t ever leave,
For you are all I need to believe.

Believe in this journey they call life,
I can no longer feel the tip of the knife.

When with you...

Rattling  hocks
And that mane flowing free
Stirrups adangle 
You danced around me
Wrapped up in reins
And enraptured it's true
It was a cinch I'd be saddled with you...

Stallion 

Mighty, was his look, 
rendering tall, as he provokes. 

The attraction that he emanates drawing to its taming, 
which we sought. 

A stallion as he stands, 
the silhouette is what we have seen. 

It was that of a wild horse 
waiting for his taming...
