Goat Poems

Say goodbye to the masquerade.
Let Light come in, let darkness fade.
The Word we cannot sugar coat.
It’s what separates the sheep from the goat.
But we simply can’t throw stones.
Or leave the fire shut up in our bones.
We cannot water down the...Read More

What becomes of crazy mixed up kids fifty years on?
They become crazy mixed up elderly he-goats.
I am in part a Protestant,
In part I am a Jew,
But then I am a Catholic,
on off-days an atheist, too.
I’m something of a socialist
and pay...Read More

Trump supporters are quite a riddle
They're for, or against, but no middle
If that gets your goat
Then you should take note
Trump plays every string on a fiddle!...Read More

VALENTINES DAY IN AUSSIE BUSH

Awakening with a romantic itch,
Then a scratch where I had burst a stitch,
looking at my beaut shagger named sheila,
as a randy ram, try to hug her,
tis Valentines Day in Whattabugga.

Love is in the bush out west,

Cheese, did you say cheese...Many have stopped letting it age. 
The pride-of the industry has diminished in grade. 
The process is no longer done in accordance with time. 
The cheesy cheese can no longer be considered- ''fine brine''. 
The quality...Read More

My cabin sits high upon the mountainside.
The rivers valley below both broad and wide;
An arboreal mist shrouds the land below;
As cold air rolls in, the white canopy grows;

Filling the valley up ever so slowly;
Climbing the mountainside thick wet foliage;
Mother Nature’s...Read More

Only one g.o.a.t. in my Lifetime has achieved that fate
Be it 18 or 81, a little more than everything is what he gave
Even though he...Read More

Deliberate donkey was visiting one day, when he went out to play.

Ralph lived on an island
Isolated and remote
His only companion was Gertrude, the goat
He didn't have many possessions
There wasn't the need
As long as he had a roof over his head
And enough food to feed
Himself and of course the goat
I forgot to...Read More

Paying forward kindnesses done...
courtesy family, friend or stranger

Appreciative when nonagenarian
papa telepathically hears me yelp
and/or non twisted sisters,
who time and again offered
unsolicited beneficial help.

Indeed unable to reciprocate
that's not quite all he wrote
when kith/kin allotted this ole goat
specie, paper money, and bank...Read More

I’m Cindy Mae, come walk today
among my village of snow-people and play
with my Billy goat, Fagan and I;
just outside of the red barn, it lies.

I built it with my own two hands,
with smiles, cold fingers, I now stand,
among snow-babies, pure...Read More

She bragged about
Enjoying the embarrassment
Of being rich
She spoke of
Opportunities
That were available
To her thru those
Trends that complimented
What she already knew
And wasn't nervous
About doing
Her strengths were
The Reas n she bragged.
Her weaknesses came from
Those fears she kept hidden
Treasures the shame of
Wealth
Those who long...Read More

A rolling stone gathers no moths
Is a lobster a crushed Asian
Are you all just a pigment of my imagination
This will be my last will and tentacle

If I was a Rocky Mountain Goat
I would wear a furry overcoat.
I would walk rocks
Ignore all clocks
And jump off cliffs onto river boats.

“Fire” alarm sirens
are going off [the audible radar]
stealth silently
Those living deaf 
can’t receive
the incoming Death warning

Sky chariots on the roil warpath
are thunderclap rolling
Propaganda leaflet droppings
did foreshadow 
their cursed dire coming

Ordnance jewels are falling
from hailstone crowns — 
“All hail the GOAT...Read More

I call her name
everybody turns to stare
calling a goat? what a silly game

Her ears rise
head turning faster than the earth
the hapiness reaches her eyes

Speeding faster than a train
her hooves barely touch the ground
faster than a drop of rain

she reaches the...Read More

Tom Sharing Aphorisms

I’ve been told, when younger,
”I could start a fight in an empty House.”
Because often “I would cloud up and rain knuckles,”
and later “was a sight for sore eyes”
Sometimes “I just had a conniption fit”...Read More
