Best Slice Poems

Who ate the last slice?
I don't hear no confession
Who scarfed the last slice down?
Everyone seems to have a finger pointing obsession
Don't know why we have house rules,
when no one pays them no mind
He who calls last slice first,
is supposed to have their belly rewarded
whenever they...

Slice of Glory

A crescent moon hangs in the winter sky
A shiny slice of glory to the eye
Its brightness guides the way across the snow
As I glide through all that I love to know
Its tilted smile, shines happy in the dark
Inspiration spreads, from this single spark
While...

She answered the door with delight in her eyes,
as I gave her the plate with a piece of warm pie

My afternoon's rushed, but she invites me to stay,
and it's hard to say no, as she tries to delay

I have glanced at my watch and the...

A slice of Americana
love their Mar-a-Lago cream cheese pastry
immorality a lot
They crave their leadership cake ...
spin-sugar batter laced, 
full of vulgarities and obscenities
in a profanity pot
Call truth to them: 
this is guaranteed to give your soul gut rot
Response be a fork crooked limb:
give us another...

Go to the sea if you feel slight
On a blue draped dreamy night
When the sliver disc of the sky 
Dances with the sea on the sly
Riding silent waves rising high
Reach the moon you would try
Cut slice of still sea on its side
Like the birthday cake...

Slice ham so thin, your in-laws will never come back

This pearl of wisdom came my way
So many years ago
A TV ad that to this day,
The funniest I know

It sliced and diced, did everything
A kitchen chef could seek
In fact, it claimed that it could make
ONE tomato...

Crowds in Times Square
Tourists blend with locals 
   and hit the theatre district

 Keep moving along with the

Calorie counting ceases
Decadent and so delicious
Every single crumb is savoured
Forget sharing, it’s all mine!

Going to start my diet … tomorrow!

I sit , look around
Only water to be found 
The white clean sand
Falls like an hourglass in my hand. 

Feeling so far away
Lost at shore, held at bay
Laying flat under the sun
Island living is pure fun. 

A tropical oasis sitting sole
Escaping into a fishbowl
Waves lapping...

I opened the door and there was the pain and regrets
I met the drugs and the alcohol
The addiction and the abuse
The prosperity and the failure
The screaming bones and the tainted commandments
The effects of a life that lived on a tightrope

I couldn't take it anymore
So i...

The bus station is empty,
three hours to wait.

The girl behind the counter,
long black hair hanging in ringlets,
stares lazily as we approach.
"May I help you?"

The homeless man wanders in slowly,
takes a seat on the opposite 
side of the room, facing the wall-
escapes through sleep. 

Hours pass;...

The Story: 

ragged faded 
lady hoarder, 
dumpster-diving 
diva boarder, 
dancin' to the tune 
of her Dandelion Wine. 

milky-eyed maiden, 
peddles paper posies, 
masticating carnivore, 
toothless, useless whore. 
not on her best night! 
not anymore! 

acclimated alleyways, 
rodents without fear, 
muddle-minded Faustian , 
soul redeeming martyr...

The plaguing tictocs, of the grandfather clockProduces an electric current upon my skinAwakening cobwebs in my mind like a frockThe horrific chagrin begs the question of sinA subtle distinction mid death and extinctionNot entitled to a timely refund by the kinetic forceA fiery necklace swings...
