Best Guzzled Poems

Now Bobby, don't try to look coy.
You mischievous naughty young boy!
You've guzzled my sweets
From 'tricking or treats'
I've seen through your devious ploy.

Oh Bobby, say have you no pride?
You've acted so sneaky and snide.
Your ankle-length socks,
You sneaky young fox
Are stuffed with marshmallows inside!

Don't flutter those big...

One day in Soup Creek City, 
There was a duel 'tween Cunningham and Watt 
Tom said to John "I hear you're good, 
Let me see, son- what you've got" 

John said to Tom "You're not the only one 
With a gun that fires ink 
Tom...

He stumbled in, as drunk as sin
with a limp and a nose full of red
He ordered cheap gin, and the blood dripped in
As he raised the drink to his head

He sat on the stool,and the drops formed a pool
He could feel all the eyes on...

"Open Oceans"



Kneeling on pearls
wisdom preys

praying
preying

hungry hearts
count the days 

wasting away
in all that preying 

for prayers 
to be answered

children become
strangers

reading 
strange words

finding 
themselves puzzled

genuflecting to a deity
they do not know, nor wish to

fumbling
mouths closed,

swallowed hole
in the mouth of a black whale

hidden deep 
within an obtuse family

voices...

A Night On The Town

While searching for a book, one that I hadn’t yet read
I stumbled upon a critter and this is what he said:

Although the library is quite cozy and nice;
Could you fancy a night out for the right price?

Howsabout we meet by the...

Driving my car across the country, numerous years ago, going to a new place,       
     Changing who I’d know
A loud bang broke the boredom and blue smoke filled the air, engine was

Send me a lover
Send me a goddess
Send me the rain
To wash away the pain
To wash away the stain
On my heart and brain

Extract the poison
she spilled in my veins
Lord knows I am going
Insane there's a female
Dragon I need it to be slain



She wasn't dumb
But she was...

It was the "Old West" and the town dusty
When in on his horse came a galloper named Rusty.

He ran into the saloon and shouted aloud
"Big Red's a Comin'" ... which stunned the crowd.

They started to disappear as quick as they could
Big Red's reputation dictated they...

Taxicab driver
Midnight rates apply;
Moonlight serenade


Tipsy bar crashers
Stepping out;
Cigarette break


Alcohol buffet
Free flow of beer;
Sorrows guzzled


Chit-chat combat
Happy hour banter;
Bartering progress


Too much stress
Nobody seems to know;
Things will be better


Complaints collide
Bar time gripes;
Bad bossy boss


Pain in the neck
Grumpy buffalo;
Home on the range


End of day
Work retreats;
Until tomorrow cheers


Profound exchange
Gin and...

"Christmas in the Cathedral of the Forest Deep"




The silent heart is found 
embedded in the 
Cathedral of 
The Forest Deep

The lost jewel
shines in the dark
see the reflection of emerald eyes
endless hazel woods scried

On Christmas Eve
when all lost souls walk 
and those content in life
without sin,...

I know of a witch, with a wart on her nose
Day after day, we have watched how it grows!
It is thought of by some
That it might weigh a ton!!
How big could it get?? ...Well, nobody knows!!


It itched, and she scratched it,  then rubbed it...

Your image, I still see when I gaze at the clouds, 
Your voice, I still hear when the wind blows,
I see your petite hand prints on foggy windows.
I still see your love flaming when I turn on the stove,
The memories are much to eat, 
Your...

Wearing thick glasses
and braces on her buck teeth,
Professor Harriet carried
her pile of books while accidentally 
stepping into the wet cement,
going into her lab to go wash up,
afterwards she decided to work 
on a different kind of experiment,
tired of feeling nutty, mousey,
klutzy and insecure,
she whipped up...

When Johnny guzzled three ice-cold beers
   There dawned on him a feeling of fear
     He fled, but he couldn't hide
     Crossed a river a mile wide
   Burned out his motor ~ all in...
