I hear him vomiting in the toilet;
a hangover, recall
when he would crawl,
baby drool hung on a dopy grin.
I'm frying breakfast eggs for us.
He tilts back his chair,
looking at me, with my own
-eating smile.

Lessons on Head Containment
People lose their heads
It’s what they do
And should it happen to you
Someone could use it for bowling
Let us pray for containment
Generally and specifically speaking
It is advised
Don’t be born
At the time of the guillotine
Or be of any political persuasion
From that
Or any other era or period in time
Though guillotine is
The great weight loss program
(“2 pounds off the top please!”)
Keep your head with you at all times
When going for a walk
Place your left hand firmly
Over the left side of the head
Place right hand on right of head
And do not prance
Do not look at the sun
It’s already compromised
Decapitated
Removed from other celestial bodies
If someone chases you with an ax
Run…. (Aspirins won’t help)
Bring a bread sized basket with you
If something should happen
Avoid the cost or loss of head containment
Soak it in cool water
Hide your head under covers
From headless horsemen
Or is it horseless headmen?
Beware of pigmies with their stitches
Try not to dangle in the wind by rope
It makes you look silly & dopy or worse
….. Dead….
If all else fails
Go gambling but
Don’t lose your head

grumpy
doc…
bashful
sleepy
sneezed a lot.
happy now ;)
we do indeed
have a spicy snot
twice the mice
and a monkey
at the helm…
came a lot
she did
to read these men
disguised as
snoozen
eighth dwarf
is a gem
...she puts rouge on
and climbs a tree…
psst… “Snow White?”... she ain’t me.

"diminitioning returns beyond the event horizon
mariginal lines of visibility as solar flares
light up the sky there is no noise i wonder why"
i wonder how
an event such as
her eyes are on
can stir such wonder
on events unheard
noize is what i said
3.14159265
it’s in the air
and in my head
but when i turn
to see the sun
i thought i saw
inside a one
but honey it said…
nine slides on
and a cone
of silence
doesn’t work
without fun.
:)
I wondered why for a while
but then no one answered
so I’m making up my own how.
that's what.

Form: I do not know?
his skin is hot, ocean-air scented
as he burrows his head into my shoulder
he does not want his mother
her wild ways and loud voices
have frightened him enough today
have taken every good moment in the sun
and darkened it
as always
his arms are tight around my neck
and he hides his eyes
I love his scent he is pure
boy
salty and clean
he knows my firm hand on his back
is a safety net
and I step away and in front of my wife
to avoid her
keep her away from this boy
who hurts too much too soon
ahh oooo what a cute boy the old woman says
as I juggle the keyes and the towels to open the
car
and is that your wife
through my sunglasses I look at her standing there
hair wild
looking dopy and defiant at once
glaring at anyone looking her way
"oh god yes" I say, unable to swallow "God Help Me"
