Lab Rat


I feel like a lab rat
Property of this or that
Choices no longer mine to make
What’s the point to life for goodness sake?
A pill for your troubles and a pat on the back
Compassion for others is what they really lack
All the pricking, poking and a...

They look at us
as if we were just lab rats,
and maybe, we are.
Who knows or cares?
I definitely do care.

I know that
I'm part wolf and human.
I don't want to know how much wolf
is in my DNA.

If I knew, I would know
that I am a glorified lab...

Half-buried in a mud pit,
a polluter bares all, body and soul.
Hands bound, ready to be stoned
to death.

A god was going to kill a god.
A dense judgement of planet green
of an unreliable sun
scribbling a code of conduct.

My god, I will go insane.
Save my woods I say....

Don is the ultimate user
His deals seal you as a loser 
When Trump holds the cards
The lives now in shards
Bear witness he’s an abuser

The Don has a trick to reveal
He’ll dick you and cancel your deal
Like hands on your neck
Trump voids your paycheck
And feels ecstasy...

This was my favourite friend
when I was growing up
a black Labrador dog
especially at first being a pup

But like all of us
dogs will always want to walk
always needing exercise to grow
but sometimes their bark is their talk

My lab has such a lovely coat
love to run my...

Wisping kitchen sunlight
                          through dust and wood smoke.

     I adopted a friendly old dog,
     a black Lab named Ken
     He's not much of a watch dog
     but we're great friends

     Ken, has...

Made it into 
the 
community 
college 
where I have worked for 
          many years 
Stopped off for a large 
          green tea 
  before dealing with...

I am tired of visiting pubs but let me be found in knowledge labs.
Assimilating words like water filled in cups. 
Today, tomorrow let me hold a book on my lap. 
Being soaked in knowledge and becoming wet as clay getting wet or damp. 
With illumination...

Some men came and rang my doorbell
They barked To your pen say farewell!
Since you dared insult
Our Trump lover's cult
It gets ten to life in a cell...

Good Neighbor Rick's Labrador Dog

They were kidding by saying Rick was a road hog
And you should be sure to see his adorable dog
Searching up and then down street everywhere
With pounds of superb energy always to spare.

Rick's leaving to see a ECU game today
While his delirious...

Today, I brought my earbuds. 
So, while I'm surfing 
Facebook™ 
 in the computer lab 
I can listen to music 
on youtube at the same time. 
I clumsily molest the 
backside of the dusty monolith, 
as my left ring finger 
discovers an abrasive crust. 
Someone...

Just imagine this
A little rat in a lab did sit
He was the test subject for hypertensive disease
Well the blood pressure cuff was too tight too please

All he could think of all day 
Was how he could get away
Knowing that very soon 
The cuff would balloon

The...

When we retired we were so inspired:
To live free and rest from our labors.
This mobile home park has lived up to the mark,
But oh, goodness gracious, the neighbors.

Jay the old peeper can snoop through the creeper
And tell if the ladies are bathing.
At times he's been...

MUSIC IN THE LISTENING LAB
 
Notes!  Notes of music
Bouncing 	
Off of walls – off of chairs
Off of ceilings and off the floors
Running down the hall in half steps
	Flooding every inch of space
	In atonal tangos - rhythms searching for their time.

Notes!  Notes of music
Bumping
	Up...
