Premium Member the edge
On the far edge of the world there are fanatics of many minds and religions. They have uninteresting histories, jejune existences, and distorted ideas of nature. Some are belligerent, felony-friendly foreigners. I’ve never given them a single thought, because they are nothing to me. They’re insignificant—living curiosities and I grant them no more sympathy than I would a flock of wild birds. Of course, I’d...

Premium Member Ministry Of Mirth
When the sad worldly din, starts to close in- I notice a dearth of humor, the lightness of laughter I seek after, from the ministry of mirth. Last Thursday my daughter told me that week's food bill was $303, we are a household of five, we do our best to get by, instead of a sigh and exasperated moan, I busted out laughing once off the...

What's a Poet To Do?
I sit and ponder, allow my mind to wander And wonder about what I ponder Then put pen to paper, begin to scratch and scribble Hoping endless hoping that someone will read my dribble And then reading perhaps exclaim “This poem deserves acclaim” crickets Ahh, what’s a poet to do But ponder through and through Then wander further afar Find a wonder so bizarre And purchase...

Premium Member A Confession
To soften his adolescent growing pains he was encouraged (can’t recall by whom) to take up painting – to make a name for himself, they said. When that failed, and miserably, he took up drinking which he likened not to a godsend, rather to a bodily need and calling. And so it was, for in little time he...

No Butts About It
I’m surely not the only one Who finds this hard to use And whether it is needed Will produce conflicting views. Yet when in a public restroom I will often face defeat When I try to use the paper cover For the toilet seat. As I peel one from the package, In the process it might tear, But it still could serve its purpose If it...

The Fly on the Wall
The despicable fly thinks he is tall Because he landed so high on the wall But I’m about to show him just how small He truly is when I make him fall All because of a fly on the wall. With a paper rolled tight with a band Held firm in my good right hand, I’ll send that dirty fly to the...

Premium Member Getting Chummy
“Doo-doo, doo-doo,” we hear the beast coming. Music gets under our skin. The worst of attacks, narrated by the boat’s captain. Unsettling sink of the USS Indianapolis. Just below the hull, a giant life wanting to strike a blow. This boat a smaller target. Getting chummy, stomachs lurching. Baited by grimmer details. A solid blow to the vessel. All hands on deck...
