   Five-and-Ten, a ‘Mom-and-Pop’
      just down the road
   Ye olde-fashioned ice cream shoppe

   Round the corner a little bit
      an old barber’s pole
   Enjoy the flavor of candy-cane wit

   Near the station, a musty news-stand

Spawn Variant: a Magic That Changes the World

Spawn Variant, with powers unheard,
With magic and strength, your every word.
Shadows and darkness, your timeless reign,
Variant shows a world that's not in vain.

With flick of wrist and flash of light,
Variant transforms the world in sight.
Changing landscapes with spells so rare,
Anything is possible in Spawn's dark lair.

Rivers run red, with blood and fire,
As Variant's powers take

Useless

It was the second morning of “daylight savings time,” and the change was noticeable.

My BF Peter has a doctorate in applied physics, he's an expert, so I asked him, “How do they move the sun?”

He gave me one of his patented, blank looks, “What, who moves the sun?” He answered.

“Well, yes,” I said, “I suppose

Kids Comics

With The Dandy, The Beano
The Eagle and Dan Dare
Dick Barton on the radio
The Goon Show on air
Riders of the Range
Journey into space
We kids of the fifties
Had our special place
Glued to the wireless
No screens in sight
The Third Programme the
Home Service and the light
When Sunday night came
Waiting patiently about
For Radio Luxembourg 
Fading in and out.
Carters little liver

Flying Ace Kills It

Snoopy was slamming through the skies
At top speed, stealthier than the other fliers
Flying ace of the year, he assured anyone who would listen
Tweety bird sat in the co-pilot seat, knowing he’d best be quiet
They looped and whorled and rat-a-tatted the enemy
Guns blazing, fierce and untouched.
Sixty-two bullet holes, and they were unscathed.
Snoopy stretched his hand out

Captain America

Brave and bold Captain America was always there
Standing up for truth and the American way
Captain America flew through the air,
So justice would prevail and save the day.
His distinctive star and billowing cape
Signs of the legend from Marvel’s comic books
He was always able to get out of any scrape
To the disappointing dismay of professional crooks.

Princess Diana of Themyscira

Some know her as Princess Diana of Themyscira
She jumped onto comic book pages in 1942
Thus, she is eighty years old, but always drawn as much younger
Super powerful, taking on villains in a fashionable way

We recognize those legs and the high red boots
She has a magic lasso that holds the bad guys in place
On November 7th,

Griffin

Not a mythical creature,
or the patriarch of a lewd, cartoon family,
you are my roommate.
Well, one of them,
and you have been for two years now. 

Superhero posters make your room your own.
Perhaps you’re concealing a secret identity
when you refuse to hang out with us;
 on late night drives,
lunch or dinner,
all we do is make awkward small

The Sexy Graphic Novels Aka Comics

Some of the sexiest women are Vargas’s 1940 pinup girls,
They are drawn with long hair, sensuous legs, and the right kind of curls.
Enhanced in all the right places, there is nothing that exudes sex faster 
Graphic drawings of cattish women are not the kind you put out to pasture.

Do you remember Cat-Woman drawn fearlessly by

Aquaman

He talks to the fish
And they hear his every wish
He swims in their pee
Way out in the sea.

Comics

A crisp art form
As drawings storm


Words and pictures
A strong mixture


Comics tell well
How format dwells


A lovely spell
As tale now tells


Plain black and white
Or colours cite


Pictures frame poise
In vivid voice


Sheer comic art
Touches my heart


Stories of old
In magic bold


Comics speak up
To flood my cup

Comics

Find drawings here
In comic art;
Fine lines speak clear
As etchings start.


Sketches now pose
To tell a tale;
Art in fine dose
As plot avails.


Comics can be
A source of ease;
Tension you see
Can play and tease.


Good versus bad
In clash and fight;
Feelings now pad
What's wrong or right.


Seduce the mind
With evil spice;
Watch good you find
Turn not so nice.


Read the story
And smell the plot;

Sonnet For Comics

These sleek pages make my bimonthly bible;
Like Last Supper savored, with conviction.
They are rooted in something old, primal.
Inhaled so fast; it must be addiction.

The roles, though imagined, are dynamic.
Caution, the plots are filled with dreamy mist.
These are new classics, tragic and epic.
Triumphs are true, but failures too persist.

Reds are bright, matched only by warring Mars;
Blues
