Saltine
Ultra tasty
Soylent yellow, maybe?
Courage needed when consuming
Cracker

Who's in my cracker box? 
I found a saltine in here...
And it's ready, for a bowl of hot soup..
Would you like to jump in, and join me? 
I'm ready to crack up, and laugh real hard.
Too much salt floating around in here..
Gotta go..

Who's in my...

The Babysitter

Little Patti Mouse
Use to come into my house
And Mom and Dad would leave
And Patti would be mean.

She was the babysitter.
We couldn't do a thing.
We couldn't get a drink
Or go out on the swings.

We had to eat our supper
And nothing after that.
“But Mommy let's us...

I can feel the seemingly invisible shards creeping along my skin,  cutting me like glass. 
The presence of these creatures alone swallows me whole and leaves me restless. 
I promised you and myself that i wouldn’t open the doors to allow them in again,...

I savor sunshine - its voracious heat
as I drizzle sweet lemonade
on my dehydrated tongue.

I dip my toes into the fondant
of lemon afternoon. You’ll find me
wading in the aquamarine swoon.

My coral-colored swimsuit, one piece
tease of a midsummer’s sea;
saltine-salvation with a tangerine squeeze.

Chartreuse eyes, like a key...

black may turn to gray but gray
   may not turn to yellow,

  night may turn to day, but 
  still these clouds hang around.
  
    saltine driftwood and enameled seashells

Condolences Forever Invoked - 9/11/2001

(I sit corrected for typing year 201, when most of America untrammeled by hordes of humanity, and probably far more similar to the garden of Eden, which approximate space/time continuum disparity only about twenty centuries ago, a place unimaginably wine ding...

Saltine crackers have become my worst enemy
Add that to my rapidly-growing list of “do-not-eats”
Along with many common foods I considered treats
Salt, sugar, and fats, in general, are my archenemy.

Sorry, Barbara Bush,* you did not heed good advice
And lived it up with salty carbs and unsaturated...

WRITING WITH WEEPING WORDS

Lucinda runs through the forest,
runs past the barren fields, runs
past the lucid waterfall, runs
with her tears, leaving seeds of despair.

Roses with thorns grow most beautiful -
red, pink, yellow, white, as she grieves,
running, always running, with her paper
and pen. She’s fallen with her...

I’ve taught you well my young elder. The chosen path of the light was handed to you in a gift of sight as I gave you my eyes in a different life long before the land before time. Nothing exists except love and the energy...

Polly Jez don’t ever ‘pologize
Curt cracker tongue
spit the hate cloudy issue high

Got black gunpowder love,
bullet hole
between the breast
And white tufts of tawdry deeds,
foolish follicles 
sprouting on the chest

P Jez Is a belle — 
princess Cain be a sweet talk squawker 
Crooked beak
who loves raising hell

Sucking On Straws

I used to suck on  nickels and dimes;
Metals tasted like saltine crackers
Swallowed a couple pennies many of times;
I just gag throw up like a method actor;
And now breaking the law guilty;
Throat raw, cut, torn, filthy;
I have a fetish;
For putting thing's in my...
