Would You Still Love MeWould you still love me ... perchance I was half a man?
My carnal, physical core torn from me like ragged raiment,
Off to war in courage and heroic sacrifice ...
Returned by...

Ps Poets I Admire-Added LimericksThere are a few gentlemen I admire
Whose lovely poems set my heart afire
Though we live far apart
They all captured my heart
Their romantic verses make me perspire.
I dare not expose each poet by name
Cuz I'm afraid that would make them fair game
To the women of soup
Who...

Trumping KimA Devil's ad
How do we tell
If Earth's about
To go to hell?
Two leaders, dim
Twice immature
Consider carnage
Cogent cure
If in the midst
Of dueling ids
Cans get kicked
While blowing lids
That final conflict
Fools will fend
Reaping us ALL
Our dusty ...

yeah ...
there was someone ...
a long time ago,
lifetimes, really ... eons,
and she burned me ...
oh, I don't mean in a bad way,
like betrayal,
I mean inside - DEEP inside,
like torch burns steel,
she seared herself into my being -
fired her name into my marrow,
with immutability and intent...

GmaAdorable as children can be.
Bounding with such energy.
Cuddles when they see me.
Deciding what to ask Santa for.
Each has so many toys, oh Santa not more.
Fairy dress up clothes for little Eleanor.
Giant dinosaur models for Jon.
Helicopter that flies for Joel and a pony to ride...

KetchupKept in the fridges of
kitchens of my land, the
King of Condiments is
Known to enhance french fries!
Kids at heart love it, so
Kick off your morning with
Ketchup on scrambled eggs!

In a Word SoThere's a point blank
Just south of Soulsville
where common pit desires exude
extreme ego ratios rotating on human gutlike
socioshadow experientials. Slow slug immuno
pain gestures cloud coilshaped reason
with limited intellirespect ids--only
that lonely by product of talking to
the mime chip on your shoulder clasped
hands in a froth...

He's been blamed for everything from (A)ids to this nation's (Z)aniness!
Too bad they cannot remove the log from their biased eye,

Christmas AbecedarianAlternating sleet and snow
Bounced droplets against windows
Children pressing noses on glass
December 24th, Christmas Eve at last
Excitement palpable all around
Flakes gently accumulating over ground
Gusts of wind creating snowdrifts fast
Holiday memories of Christmas's past
I am home for holidays this year
Jingle Bells sung loudly to...

This Land Is Your Landas turf wars go
here
the weapons concealed
before agendas revealed
and courtyard orders sealed
inside wetzel gooey goodness
grand central its not
maybe from the outside
but inside the buzz is low
the reverb high
lingering as smoke choking
on its own asthma
void of cache
or any semblance
of the character
chiseled into posts,
ceiling festoons
and the ethnic parades
chanting...

You Complete MeMy eyes look for you ...
My heart bleeds the truth,
My spirit enters your soul completely.
Where do I end and you begin?
A mosh pit swirl of emotions and ids,
Each breath a swollen anticipation.

Those Lowly EntelechiesImpeccant,
of non-textual matters
one’s covered flesh,
and hidden embrasure’
as diffusate primer
slips life’s veil, and
in agitated pontlevis,
cleaves the universe’ reason…
“Egads! What sorcery is this?”
Holy heart failure, Batman!
“Beavis and Butthead”,
on Soteriology!
or merely, this word wizard’
celebrity; slap...
