OverthinkingI leaned back in my chair and carefully thought,
'bout what is to be, and what is not,
and the things that are and the things which was,
and what doesn't and that which does.
Just then, I leaned too far and fell on my head.
I'd finish the thought, but now I'm dead....

Dog ThoughtsHe sat with slightly tilted head.
He didn't wish to be misled.
The command seemed arbitrary,
and, frankly, pointless - very.
Why would he want to sit like stone
when he could be burying a bone?
As a proud bulldog of station,
he had some reservation.
Chewing on nonviolent resistance
and his owner's strange insistence,
he decided not to risk it.
After all, it was a...

A golly whopper's catchThere was a young woman who yearned for a mate.
Sadly cat food was all that she ate...
The cans with seafood she clearly favored and from
this diet she never wavered.
Many thought her an attractive gal, in spite of slight
whiskers and her woeful meow.
None dared go close as her breath was so foul..
Come night on a twinkling...

The X In Xmas
Give me a kiss under the mistletoe
as
Christmas comes but once a year
gathering friends and family near
and
if X is a kiss is kissmas a word
if it is it’s the sweetest I’ve heard
X marks the spot now Christmas is here
peaceful joyful and full of good cheer
I’ll give you a kiss here under the mistletoe
as
Christmas is the time...

Rare Bird
'It takes one to know one', so they do state,
but that won't take you far,
as we're never told exactly who these 'they' are.
'It's not what you know, it's who you know',
so the saying goes,
but the devil is in the details,
and I say, 'It's what you know about whom you know,'
which really goes to show,
whomsoever holds...

Who You Calling Decrepit?Decidedly, no longer a teenager
Even older than the president, I'd wager
Curmudgeonly, "that's not music", he mumbles
Reliably, "prices are too high", he grumbles
Each year, his age is closer to infinity
Perhaps that's how many times he wakes up to pee
I guess the time has come, I must accep' it -
To tell you the truth, it's me who's decrepit ...

No Calling Her Decrepit"As the day ends, one is closer to heaven." By Poet
My neighbor is old,
she can be very bold.
Loving to wear lots of fancy gold,
and decrepit I am told.
You know age is just a thing,
numbers one wants to ring.
How old are you,
that number may make you blue.
They tell me I am a decrepit ninety-two,
but I can...

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi - 1918-2008
The Indian guru's

tho' somewhat strange,
goes this way...
'When words fail
and at a loss,
contemplate aural hygiene
with transcendental floss.'

A Piggy Bank For A Dream TravelI have a dream to travel abroad
I tell myself, do everything to it
One day to make it happen when
If not I can make what I want
Come what may I still wish it
Is it impossible, no, I'll try
I keep on dreaming, walk, crawl
Lie in that direction far away
But I don't betray my dream well
So I got...

Real Girlspurple waters and a palm; drops
coconuts on the sailors. mutts -
the enlisted; maritime props
in greedy hands - bum hat of klutz.
weave of straw skirt - she laughs him off.
the nail in his coffin; alive.
she’s ugly with mesmerized cough.
without real girls, how to survive…
yellow and green mists, pink and blue.
misfits would sell their souls, embark
on this...

Thor's Toaster Troubles
Thor, chief of thunder, so grand,
Tried to fix a small toaster by hand.
With Mjolnir's great might,
He blew out the light,
"This 'appliance'," he boomed, "I don't understand!"

DecemberDecember
I’m ready for cooler weather.
Can’t wait to see the snowfall in December.
With pretty lights flashing from the Christmas tree.
Looking at the presents you could only wonder what it could be.
We all should drink some warm apple cider.
Sitting on the ledge next to the fire.
I remember driving at night...
