Dennis the Menace is Gone

As a very young man, his career went far.
On television, Jay was a popular child star.
Success as "Dennis the Menace" could not be denied.
Dennis was a constant thorn in Mr. Wilson's side.
As Henry and Alice Mitchell's bundle of joy,
Dennis was quite a funny, but mischievous boy.
Despite his immense world-wide popularity, 
he had to deal with

Dennis and Carolyn

In a time when bell bottoms danced with the breeze,  
Two young hearts collided, as wild as the trees.  
In the glow of the disco, beneath starlit skies,  
They found in each other the spark of their lives.  

With laughter like music, they twirled through the night,  
In the warmth

A Street Clown Named Dennis

has he got 
the balls 
to juggle? 

doesn’t he 
have 
balloons? 

only a knife 
and a photo 
of his mother

not meeting 
their gaze
only walking by,
fixed eyes on 
the horizon

he walks down the block party
where mothers
hold children in fear

and Dennis is in a trance 
dancing toward
the uncertain nothing to leave

toward another town 
start anew 
parties in

Untitled

there was a young man named Dennis
who staggered from a pub in Ennis
he thought he boarded a train
but woke up on a plane
and found he was headed to Venice

Eyes Fastened On Tennis and Dennis

Some girls’ eyes were fastened on Dennis
Doing wonderful Tennis
In boxers poorly screening ,
Much to the dismay of his First Niece,
His sometimes-raging, Girlfriend Eunice,
A Christian Mother he’d rendered service
But not to Arch Enemy Elvis
With him competing in their office…

“For long have I been expecting this
From a man who’d named me Novice”

The Incredible Disappearance of Six Year Old Dennis Martin

One of the greatest coverups of Park Rangers and The FBI took place in
The Great Smokey Mountains National Park in Tennessee on June 14, 1969. It involved a six year old named Dennis Martin who was on vacation with his father and grandfather. William Martin and his dad and son were camping near Spence Field.

Dennis Disler

I miss his laugh
the smell of his cologne
I miss driving into another
state just to see him
I miss cutting wood
and living in the country,
 but i didn't like
that you were sick
or that you lived basically
by yourself
I hate the fact that
there was no warning
you died peacefully
in your sleep,
but most of all
I hate not seeing you!

For My Brother, Dennis

You, always searching.
                    Searching through the remains of dusty city archives
               That led you wandering, through rows of granite headstones
  

Dennis and Johnnie-F

2000 miles is a long ways, and 50 plus years is a very long time.
It spells the time and space that have separated me and my two friends.
Back then, whether it was hay, ammonia, cowboys, sling shots, or rubber tires,
somewhere in the mix were my two friends.  Presently, there is a loving memory of

Athol Fugard, Alan Paton, John Kani, Kessie Govender, Dennis Brutus

Athol Fugard is a leading voice in theater of Africa
 will he condone silence about the street execution f George Floyd?

Dennis Brutus was being deported from USA in 1980s, from U. Penn
(I helped get him to speak against South Africa's Racist Constitution,
at Ohio University in 1984. I confess, with Libyan money as donation!)
Would the late

The Sad Tragic Tale of Dennis Lloyd Martin

His parents' worst nightmare that left them disheartened
is the sad tragic tale of Dennis Lloyd Martin

On a family outing at Cades Cove park
Dennis, his brother and some friends on a lark

Playing hide and go seek as they always had
well within sight of their grandpa and dad

The father was watching them horsing around
and he saw, that

A seaman  called, "Octopus" Dennis
Was known to the girls  as a menace
A sign from Above
