Best Overdoing Poems
Chapter and Verse a Live Poetry RecitalGood evening Ladies
May I say, I am honored and privileged
As this is the first ever time

A Part of HistoryA PART OF HISTORY
Our failures in cities burn-forget-
Our failures haunt us-biting heels
We choked rictus stun their neon
We are awaiting instructions-but-
His masked beings see us but do not touch us
They can not protect us day by day our failures
Frenzied adjusting the struggles to not overdoing
I see...

Check PleaseOh my God! Is it morning already?
Check! Yes, I can see things in my room quite clearly now.
The sun, at least, has started on his appointed rounds.

But not too hard, those cramps that you get...

Veggies, Veggies, VeggiesVeggies, veggies, I sure love my veggies
Just about any that you can name
A salad a day for more than two years now
You'd think I would tire of 'em but hey, not me
Still the best meal of the day
With my favourite Poppy Seed Dressing
What could be...

Change In Temperature11/11/15
Birds of the same feather
Eat and stay together
You yourself can possibly make it better
But not if you take forever
Such strange weather
And in the water a change in temperature
The mouth of an animal with rabies begins frothing
While the degrees continue dropping
The windows start fogging
As many...

Get out your ruler, measure one more...

Do You Kinda Like Me ToOne, you waved at me at the stop light
Two, we bumped carts at Target last night
Three, you were behind me at the line to get coffee
Four, nah... forget it, just couldn't be
Is it just my silly imagination
Could it be my eager anticipation
My own funny...

What's Up With HimDo any of you guys wake up feeling great
And can't figure the reason why
Don't question it, just go along with the flow
High five everyone passing by
Some will smile and wish you a good day
While others will walk on by
Mumbling things like “What's up with him?”
“Escaped...

Earth's Creation ParablesOnce upon successive times of
economic and political revolutions
slow-grown bionic ecosystemic balance
suddenly emerged
where form with functional health potential
had been submerged.
When Earth
was Yang gusting wind
and surging surfing yin waters,
light's emergence each Yang sunrise
was daily revolution news
for dualdark Yin economic-oceanic understories.
Then Yang submerged volcanoes,
turbulence from within Yin's...

The Book of CharmWhat is this charm that others have?
Magnetic attraction and attention grabbing,
Playing the room like the Pied Piper of Hamelin.
Charm like a souffle needs careful attention to detail,
practice and handling with care.
Overdone it flops and sags to disaster pudding.
The first ingredient is...

Dang it
Still doing the same s***
On a planet that is overpopulated
Always getting faded
And intoxicated
Often facing Goliath, call me David
I won and was elated
I also loss and got frustrated
My ego rose or it deflated
The one continually shaded
And blamed quick
By those that are jaded
They're amazed if
I actually...

Too Much of AnythingIt is generally said that excess of anything
Good or bad is not ultimately benefiting
This, therefore, calls for firm controlling
Of whatever exercise we are conducting.
Delicious foods in surplus do huge damages
This is verily true of all fleeting belongings
Their enjoyment breeds additional desires
And induce the mind...
