Best Usual Poems
As Usual She Did Not Take PartI’ll never forget what’s her name
A PE teacher and ogre she became
For I was such a sickly child
it really made this ogre wild
Held in my hand a medical certificate
exempted from all things physical
with Rheumatic Fever and St Vitus’ Dance
for me to take part ~...

Business As UsualRock Hardon just called a staff meeting
To hear a complaint about cheating
Our Xerox machine
Could not be wiped clean
So privates were publicly sheeting...

Not the Usual Surgery
An important man suffers a serious head injury.
It’s a cerebral blood clot requiring surgery.
However, it cannot be performed the usual way.
Here is an ultra modern method available this day:
This is a scientific advance quite difficult to realize.
They shrink a submarine and its crew to microscopic...

"politics As Usual"Nary earthly idea what needs done next,
each candidate seeks his opponent’s hex.
Their Agapes are sloppy,
carnal mistake they copy,
lost in a googolplex of carnal fix!
All their tables are full of their vomit,
very much so with all idle comment!

That one called this one a dud.
Neither could be clearly seen,
Once they were done slinging mud....

The Usual SuspectsEvery day at quarter to four
There is often a rush to the library door
The ‘usual suspects’ are often there
Sitting on a library chair
They speak to the teacher who they have upset
It may have been deliberate or even for a bet
They could have been fighting, swearing...

The Usual Mistakebrutalized senseless happenstance
with a corkscrew conscience
full of cheap wine.
daylight rammeses unraveling the
sheets in the morning.
three bottles tipped sideways lieing
against the alarm clock.
such a strange cracked nautilus,
my eyes flushed with water
in a cheap sink.
but i will...

Usual ClicheUsual cliche opening line
A trite and superficial rhyme..
Now exposition maudlin-
about pain or love or the weather.
A clever offset bit of sing-song;
Stuff like ding-dong or even King-Kong.
And, as usual a line to make-
this thing too long. Now finish strong-...

Mindfulness As UsualIf I had an IQ of 17,
would this be normal?
My son,
with cerebral palsy,
no language capacity, no LeftBrain ability to read or write
or speak using linguistic tools,
with no hint of verbal or violent dominance issues,
has an angelic peace-loving IQ

Business As UsualOur boss employed a receptionist
Whose beauty we could not compare
Double D cups woke up the knights
As pheromones surged through the air
Her chair is usually empty
Excepting this handwritten note:
"I have just stepped out for the male"
Exactly as written I quote...

As Usual AgainAs Usual Again
My and my elegant wife must excuse
We're driving to Florida going on a cruise
Of course my wife won't think I am funny
When I said we never had enough money.
Going on great cruise did desire to do
After brochures we looked through a few
Naturally wife...

The Usual WaitForgotten what it's like to be thought consumed,
Feeling a little rough while appearing well and groomed,
Something on its way and I sense it more than most,
A choice I haven't made already in the post....
