Premium Member Barbecued Ribs
In summer, we grill them in our backyard. 
Preparation of spare ribs is not hard. 
Just light the charcoal, and let it get hot. 
Is there a special brand of barbecue sauce you've got? 
Spread the sauce on the ribs and let them cook away....

Crocked Ribs
They have command on me
my posture has been so
since birth and even now
a grown up, no change
The back has followed
the legs are going there
why can’t a guinea fowl
produce  penguins, swans?
Why is choice in nature
so elusive, so limited?
Why can’t I become really
what I admire in...

Ribs
Political leaders globally surmise our economic stability.
Their mind desires maximization of their capabilities.
They seek power that is not to be.
Do they enmesh via history?
Does it matter what occurrences have already manifested?
These are the questions that are answered via their dogmatic presence.
Radically, they decide in an...

Ribs On the Grill
Honey smoked ribs on the grill
Come and eat your fill
Roasted corn, drips with butter
Taste buds aflutter
Peach pie on the sill
Ice cold beers
Cheers!

Premium Member Cracked Ribs and You
My shower last Saturday
Brought throbbing pain to my day
The soap made me slip
Got bruised on my hip
My ribs might be cracked they say

It hurts when I breathe or sneeze
Or if you give me a squeeze
The good times are gone
And so is the fun
My life’s no...

Ribs, Lungs, Head and Heart
I want you to touch me until
My ribs become piano keys and my 
Lungs are filled with sheet music I 
Want you to love the way that
Art fills my soul and blooms in
My head, I want you to hate
The way that I can't let go
I...

Smoking Ribs In My Backyard An Epulaeryu For Nancy
A rack of ribs bathed in smoke,
Rubbed with lots of spice
Tender meat falls off the bones
Juice runs down your arm
There’s no need for sauce
Hickory
Wood!


I should clear up the confusion. This is for a friend of mine, Nancy, who has asked me to smoke ribs for...

Six Ribs and a Collarbone
She's tough.
Ana's tougher.
Barely seventeen, five stone
Gaunt and battered, she stands alone
Dependent on the lone knife that slays her.
I wish I could, she tells her food.
But Ana says I can't.
One day, she'll win.
She's tough....

Treasure From the Ribs
Here I come in peace
And at your service
Sent to back you up
To fill a vacuum in your life
To supply your world 
With the same kinds 
And of similar features.
I am to care, love and be selfless
My heart literally comprises 
Of precious minerals
And unique behavioural patterns
Priceless,...
