Ribbit
Froggy went a courtin',
"Ribbit," he did sing,
altho' singing weren't his thing,
more like the punchline to a joke,
'Please don't smoke or I might croak.'
In the deep end of the pond
true love was his goal,
and by the dawn help to spawn
a few more tadpole souls.
Hopped on to a water lily
where he espied
a fine-looking froggy filly,
and in her...

Jersey Belle, My Jersey Girl
'twas at the country fair I spied her
outstanding in her field
(in many more ways than one)
beyond compare second to none
eyelashes long and lovely skin of velvety down
I insist who could resist those eyes so big so brown
(limpid pools?) 'twould make a fool of (almost) any man
but I'm her biggest fan and I won't lie I...

Silverback
Silverback led his gorilla by the wrist
out into the fog and missed,
lost his heart and then his way,
sadly, he was heard to say,
"Don't get me wrong,
I'm no King Kong,
it's plain to see,
so, don't make a monkey out of me."
Silverback took his gorilla by the hand,
looking for the promised land,
a jungle bungle at very best,
made him...

Different WhipsLil mama in a Q50 infinity
Known to handle drama
Pulls up any vicinity
know a broad in a Amg
we hit the drive through theater
And we blow on trees
I know a hottie in a Beamer
She fiends for the d
Trying to have my baby
in a swooped up m3
Another shorty in a Tesla
Always smoking...

LOVE AND LIFELove has no rhythm or rhyme.
It strikes anytime.
It is like lightning coming from the sky.
It hits a person straight out of line.
It can come from far away, or by just looking at a photograph.
It can come from someone close by.
It can be someone we would never pick.
It knows...

All For The Thought Of SexAll For The Thought of Sex
Make the beast with two backs,
Give a girl a green gown,
Let's rock the bed and shake the sheets,
Sometimes it sounds kind of creepy,
But hey, lets take another leap,
You can go get your berries razzled,
Maybe let someone poke your hontus,
You can tickle the pickle,
Possably cup the coconuts,
Go rock your rump,
Let them...

Me vs the Floor vs Youi’m on the floor
not by choice,
but by gravity
and the kind of despair
that smells like vodka
and the day’s last meal.
the room spins,
those ethnic carpets under my head
you bought from a guy who said
they were “hand-woven,”
probably made in a factory
by a 12-year-old
with better dreams than us.
and that painting?
i still don’t know who did it.
maybe god,
maybe one...

THE TEASESHE DANCES JUST BEYOND YOUR REACH,
A WHISPER LOST ALONG THE BEACH.
A SHADOW CAST BY THE SETTING SUN,
A GAME BEGUN, BUT NEVER WON.
SHE SPEAKS IN RIDDLES, SOFT AND SLY,
A LAUGHING GLINT BEHIND HER EYE.
A BRUSH OF HAND, A FLEETING DANCE,
THEN VANISHES MID-STEP OF DANCE.
HER LIPS, THEY PROMISE UNTOLD BLISS,
BUT VANISH JUST BEFORE THE KISS.
A SILK OF...

For the Sake of the Children
Let’s not make a scene—
not in front of the metaphor-curious.
We owe them a semblance
of shared syllabic stability.
You take Tuesdays,
I’ll keep weekends and the enjambments.
Let’s split the metaphors equitably—
you keep flame, I’ll keep ash.
No one touches liminal.
I’ll speak highly of your similes
at open mic,
nod with gentle gravitas
when they ask if we’re
still...collaborating.
We’ll stage polite reposts,
perhaps a comment...

ClassifiedsIn the quiet still
in the sable night
dreamy dotted with
punctuates of light
I recall
my youthful days:
no balcony too steep
nor high – those I could
not climb, then~ simply I
would fly
Wanted: old Juliet, with
sympathetic elevator --

Big Blue CowI saw her in a meadow high
Where red flowers touch the sky
Her eyes were mournful, so much inside
I looked within, skepticism died
(chorus)
I'm in love with a big blue cow
And a big blue cow loves me
She don't have a job, but she survives
Without that college degree
She don't take drugs, and she don't drink
We agree about politics,...

Bottle Caps And Belly Button LintYou collect old bottle caps
and belly button lint.
I don't find you strange;
I find you endearing.
And maybe it's because
we're both locked up
on the top floor of a
mental hospital.
And you're the
only other person
I have to talk to.
Yeah,
that has to
be it.
