Fore score minus xv orbitz ago

strong contractions forced me
to pass thru cervix,
buck naked bare lady,
I ranked as only grandson sharing
same surname as Aaron,
(mine paternal grandfather)
me the sole heir –
foreshortened to Sol Aire

evinced scrawniness then (as shown
via ultrasound), which at birth
became crystal clear,
unbeknownst to parents
obsessive hidden compulsive

Calm Cruise

Out to sea in a small ship,
No land in sight, just salt sea,
Beer to chug, and wine to sip,
Plenty for all in the galley!

Under a Large Ominous Moon

Under a large ominous moon
A deadly storm begins to grow
The clouds show signs of a typhoon
Now the freebooters wildly row

As large waves smash into the ship
Under a large ominous moon
They fear that the galley may flip
Praying the storms end will come soon

Urgently seeking a lagoon  
Whilst the clouds glow wickedly red 
Under a large

Galley Slave

Galley Slave

Unsung heroes of the open sea,
Not captain, nor navigator he,
Not the brave sailors before the mast,
The lowly ship’s cook we think of last,
Who makes meals from hardtack ‘n jerky.

Seamen always needed a ship’s cook,
A chef who needs no recipe book,
In the boat’s kitchen, known as “galley”, 
Prep food to please, no time to dally,

Galley Slave To Obsessive Compulsive Behavior Part 2 Part 2 Part 2

outrageous constituent rare
lee if never seen before, though still insured,
a novel boot nada so critical freak of nature ma lord
hirsute component part in a triple tier moored
substantial pressure upon the head, 
 
entwining, looping, spilling somehow 
   interweaving umbilical cord 
into a mass of whirled wide webbed wear suitable for
four seasons, which bamboozled,

"My Tyrian galley waits for thee" - Oscar Wilde

*************************************

"My Tyrian galley waits for thee",
and breakfast is getting cold.
The maid was here to cook the eggs
but now she has gone home.

"My Tyrian galley waits for thee",
but I cannot wait much longer.
The crickets sing upon the hearth,
and I am getting older.

So come down, Miriam -
have your eggs

Galley Kitchen Peace

galley kitchen peace
i prepare my cinnamon crunch bagels
i put the blue bonnet on it
i sink my teeth into it
then i prepare the bean and bacon soup in the crock pot
the smell takes me to a place where affordability was king on throne
i steal a taste before it is fully done
then i put the honey glazed
