Hoarding Hope - the Odd Ball
Get me feeling well
For, I am sick as hell
Brain orgasms and headaches rape my mind and left me thoughtlessly behind
Trying to keep the Kingdom in remembrance before I grow blind or lose my mind
I am under sin's spell
Can’t everyone tell? 

I am wanting joy like...

Something Odd Goin' On
What's up?
What's going on?
How come it's 3AM?
And bright as noon?
Have I finally made it
Into a Looney-Tune?

Who left me a hot breakfast,
Then disappeard?
How the hell did I
Overnight grow a green beard?

And that new Lamborgini
In my driveway
Painted purple, black,
and red, each a circle round

Am I a mad...

An Odd Couple
A dashing, young field mouse
Once married a shrew,
And they set up housekeeping
In an old tennis shoe.

"Odd Lovers"



I feel your reign o’er my warm skin
your eyes cast their burning cerebral majesty
sharp diamonds cool blue sky twinning rays 
the same time dawn and dusk glistening towards me
like the rapturous Sun in debate with boiling Ocean

I am Queen’s Land, nubile and unconquered
a spent...

Premium Member The Odd SOCK
At our house we had what was called an ‘odd sock drawer,
A place which the whole family could keep odd socks to store.

Quite often the matching sock was to be seen no more.
When the drawer became quite full Mum declared war.

She bought a sizable pack...

body builders have an ab-sense
girdles are just an abs-tractions
to communicate is to accomplish-'meant'
to know your limits means know-'ledge'
too much wine means too absorb-'bent'
a purebred can be a cat-as-'trophey'
being elected does not come with a flag'grant'
women's gossip is gal-'lore'
a thinker is as an idea-'list'
a divorcee can...

Premium Member Proud To Be Odd
He is a failure, my cousin Tee said.
How so?  
He had two businesses, neither of them made it.
Yes, he is a loser, Cousin Dexter chimed in.

What were they?
A bakery, and a laundry mat.
So he can bake and do laundry! I said smartly. Sounds like...

Odd Hours
The world is asleep
But I, awake
She lies in slumber deep
While I, the hours, take

The world is asleep
But I, awake
She lies in slumber deep
While I, the hours, make

The world is asleep
But I, awake
She lies in slumber deep
While I, the hours, rake

The world is asleep
But I, awake
She...

Premium Member Odd Hours
It’s four AM
I’m wide awake
no chance of more sleep
clicking noises 
from the dining room
low hum
is it voices?
I get up
pad into the dining room.
daughter and grandson
playing Yahtzee
at the dining table
laughing together
grandson worked late
daughter insomniac
I sit down
join the game
daughter finally
peels off for more sleep
grandson and I
continue playing
he...

There was a little girl that never quite seemed to fit in
out of step with a world that seemed to her full of sin

No matter what she did or tried there always was a gap
that seemed to grow even when she sat on her dads...

Premium Member Odd Petaled Daisy
a chance meeting
digits fleeting
each I could recall

days so lazy
odd petaled daisy
I gave you a call

from one hello
how would I know
in love I would fall

would not our fate
cooperate
you loved me not at all

fifty Summers passed
they seemed so fast
then another Fall

and in the end
we became friends
under daisy's...

______________________________________________________________

In a world of normal minds, they say,
As thoughts are bound in an adducible way,
A crucial realm of wisdom, often quoted,
Resides in books, yet remains unnoted.

What matters to those commonsensical souls?
Who dread leaving their safe zones of control,
Who adheres to the...
