I dislike litterers
I see them, the cow-like chewers
Always spilling and always littering
How can these large lifers be so reckless
The environment is helpless
I see them smear the earth
They are guilty of chocking their own breathe
They are litterbugs that deserve a nosebag
With jaws incessantly grinding
Munching and crunching
In my mind I am punching
In my mind I am emptying a bin of refuge on their heads
In my mind I am tattooing a recycle sign of their foreheads
Their mindset needs a reprocess
Litterers give me so much distress

Disarray? Me? My house? My family?
Thank you! Yes, we certainly have earned the title, the crown and the sash.
You apparently were let in by one of the carpet chewers?
The watch dog is pretty much a come-in-and-open-the-frig-dog
Furious barking ceases the second a stranger, robber, or lunatic enters the premises.
Disarray? My writing? My painting? My leatherwork?
Thank you! Did you look under the couch too while you were incessantly snooping?
You would have found varmints, toys, a hot glue gun, pot holder, and last year’s Christmas brownie.
Oh, you did not get that far?
Disarray? You have not seen anything.
Let me show you the attic, the basement, the shed, the garage, and my mind.
That is where the real disarray happens.
Insanity runs in my family,
I am proud to admit. Not everyone
can claim this but it would be futile for
us to deny it. The man with the axe?
Grandpa Zeke. He wants the refrigerator
opened too. He and the watch dog are watching
your every move now.
Choose wisely.

chewers, how i feel,

Her heart is located in every part of her being
and bones, calcified with the vitamins of meekness.
Peace begins and ends her collection of any intention
and her reaction, irrespective of situation
always avoids its rights of being thorough.
Softer than a hot dough, and more flexible than a rubber band
even in the midst of hungry chewers
and the threat from playful band stretchers
she holds strong to the emblem of her personality
putting the eyes of calm in a shock dilation
to the awe of her tolerance and irritability.
If nations were like her, humanity would have no scar
her deeds incarcerate pride and incriminate greed
with an intuition structured by static trees
beside a slow moving river
enveloped by the faint whistling of happy resting birds.
The healthy mystery of such an existence
adds royalty to the privilege of being human
because she gets hurts
only when the devil himself directly strikes
with the mercenaries of hell yet unknown to possible actuality.

Bringing out waves of electrifying glamour
fully captured by antennas of nature
giving matter a new meaning, science a new puzzle
and all phenomena, something to ponder
makes even your stains worthy of adoration.
Oh my lady!
so shining and robed
with the feminine light of the Shakespearean days
the women of fine ligaments, with jars of wine,
barbecue dances, chewers of berries
and admirers of calm and still waters
in the courtyards of medieval architectural dwelling places
you top them all,
even if you're from a different era
Provoked fires get injured and the sun shrinks to a cup size
when tears flow down your cheek.
All written articles both in the heavens and the earth
would be too insignificant
for a worthy honour of your elegance.
A faculty of goodwill
from your exhale,
it's finished product
many are dying to inhale.
Existing in the class of your own
with inscriptions of Angels
makes men go round the borders of the oceans
until they find all appropriate words
to sing the praises of your charm
and the psalms of your tenderness.
