Baby you go chop no bodi knew its glory;
You go starve for affection
Hungry you de going to sidon
Go shion darling
You’re Jimgru
U de going to sidon
Go shion darling
You’re hungry later on top
Baby love me feed me
Honey you no get be hungry
Wetins go on
Baby you go chop
Baby you go chop
Baby you go chop
Baby you go chop

The muse has no fingers
Possesses no internal abacus
Cannot fathom fractious patterns
…take one word from line A
And two from line B
Skip line C
Use it as line D
Drop C into C
With six you get Egg Roll

Pro life chop shops
sanctity botched
chain your baby makers
inspect your baby’s crotch
laws ban
lives hang
hangers wrought and bought
the worst of how we’re natured
belts
you’re just another notch
fit in
or sin
resisting a rest
existing erased
pop up chop shops
for furl of brow and fraught
the worst of how we’re natured
belts
you’re just another notch

I cut a mango.
Oh no, where did my hand go.
Fingers In a cup.

The flower I gifted you.
You didn't wore it anyway, did you?
I would've liked to chop it off,
So why are now,
Trying to spread your pollen over the meadow,
While you,
Are elergic to that?

Like Animals in a plantation, so is life
Monkey must slave and Baboon must chop
Monkey must sweat and Baboon must miliki
Monkey sow, Baboon harvest
That's life's philosophy
Like Animals in a plantation, so is life
Monkey gather, Baboon plunder
When Monkey hussle, Baboon go Rustle
Monkey be chauffeur, Baboon balance for back
That's life's philosophy
Monkey be slave, Baboon be Master
That is life.

Lamb Chop really wanted to ride the pink bear
The bear shrugged and said “I don’t care”.
Donkey friend stood on carousel on a dare.
Elephant tried to outpace the solemn bear.
I watched Lamb Chop’s eyes, from my white mare.
She was laughing in earnest, happy with the fair.
Donkey friend brayed, his voice hoarse in the air.
People in the stands turned to stop and stare.
It was the best time ever Lamp Chop said in her lair.
Which was a shoebox under Sherry’s bed, so fair.
The lid was shut, which made my eyes slightly glare
I thought we needed another ride on that pink bear.

Chop wood, carry water
before enlightenment
as a mundane action
conducted in stupor,
thereby lacking traction.
Chop wood, carry water,
since body has it's need
and so there's some vigour
but we still feel empty,
for love's not the trigger.
Chop wood, carry water
when light of clear truth dawns,
mindful actions slower,
knowing that God breathes us,
thus He is the mover.
Chop wood, carry water
after enlightenment
in wonderment childlike,
as dance of life itself
causes bliss beats to spike.

I have to own up to a crime;
I've chopped a few heads in my time.
It's not what you think
They used to be pink
And fragranced with perfume sublime!

My pork chop ran off with a leg of lamb
Had a car accident and I mean - BAM!
The first one on the scene was my sweet old gram.
Luckily she had her video cam.
Filmed the lovers running on the lam.
We laugh at that tape whenever we can!

The Queen of the local beaver
Is crowned "Saturday Night Fever"
But all of her dates
Meet quite dreadful fates
Her dad is the Rabbi Cleaver

Each seeming small challenge
we all face each & every day
occurs as a repeated test
to see if we can make work play
The slightest flicker of agitation
during day to day mundanity
signals ego borne stagnation
attachment disturbing serenity
It is only when we truly transcend
affinity to the subtlest ego urge
that we obviate need to reincarnate
divine entwined in a bliss surge

Her late husband was a fault-finder
And she wished that he had been kinder
But not her fault
She spilled the salt
When he caught his meat in the grinder!
