Premium Member Parting Shots
a couple......from my younger daze


Deep in the Ice House
On Loop Twenty Four South
He motions.........
To fill....his shot glass

Meanwhile at the Eagle's Nest
On old Sixty Nine west
She's shooting...........
Tequila  down fast

They're getting....Their parting shots in
They said it was over, but they won't let it end
Round after round.......Nobody...

Gun Shots
Sudden as thunder they crack in the night,
the boys in the lane leap over fences,
bottles crashing into stone walls,
and bullets whistle with echoing sound.


Political war,
Tribal war,
Gang war.
The boys fight with one another for the release of "the Don"
they rampage in the little town,
and round up...

Premium Member Who Will Be Calling the Shots
It’s a swill no one interrupts— 
A pill that consumes and corrupts 
Our honor's been jailed
And truth’s will is impaled
As the blood PAC tempest erupts


Author's note: Many of the super-rich (who do not yet have it all) are determined to have more of the pie...

Yesterday, the snow fell, laced lazily 
all across the frozen field; grace fell down.
My heart raced, apace in a minor key
troubles fled erased from me, was my frown. 

Seemed semblances filled my life-weary head 
so God's beauty nudged my heart-weary soul;
far off, hills became instilled...

Premium Member I Call the Shots Around Here
You must be kidding
Game's on and no one called me?
Ok, break time's up
I've been ignored long enough
I call the shots around here

Shots Fired Anonymously
gunshots, gunshots, gunshots
shots fired anonymously into the night

Why are so many shots fired in vain anonymously in the night
governed by unknown purposes on behalf of opposing ideals
engaged in conflict from behind a mask of camouflouged intents 
through the eyes of unforgivable hate by innocent hands...

Angry Shots At The Bright Howling New Moon


He saw in himself, door into the dark.
An empty house with wicked black windows.
Such dreaded truth, he thought a brilliant spark,
lightning caged there for use by brave heroes.

Death, that odd illusion he did deny,
why give it power and...

There once was a young dentist called Claire
    Upon scanning a dental repair
    Very soon was red faced
    When she took in her haste
    X-rays showing her own derrière.

Take Shots
1/11/23

Typical that they have doubts
It's often dragged out
All this crap being bragged about

Moving over the speed of eight knots
At a great cost
I had to take shots
In order to make lots
Otherwise just stuck in the same spot
Meanwhile all these fakes and snakes watch
From that pettiness I...

Premium Member Who Calls the Shots Eh
kids are all tested
on reading writing and arithmetic

trade workers are tested
to ensure they know what standards fit

industrial and institution leaders are tested
before they take over to eliminate personal 

why then are presidential candidates not tested
for their humanity and mental abilities as well as their logic
