My grandpa owned a laundry
And my father worked there, too.
A visit from the owner’s kids
Nobody thought taboo.
We rode up on the laundry carts
With giant sacks of clothes.
The workers never seemed to mind –
They couldn’t, I suppose.
The best thing was the Coke machine –
My grandpa had the key,
Which he would use to grab a soda,
Ice-cold, just for me.
I’d place that bottle in the slot;
The cap would click and drop.
I’d gulp that Coca Cola (free!)
And never want to stop.
Though years have passed, I close my eyes
And conjure up that place –
The smell of bleach, the burlap bags,
My grandpa giving chase.
It’s strange how we can focus
On some memories so clear,
While others seem, without a trace,
To up and disappear.
That laundry had a child’s allure.
A visit was a treat;
And thinking of it now, I smile,
The recollection sweet.
a limning rush of sinister
fiery angry flames bent avast
analogous copse,
where every limb bough, bore full
roaring furnace hot blast
spewing weighty incendiary volcanic
magmatic eruption out classed
Krakatoa, no longer the benchmark,
sans most powerful trajectory arc
this latest supernatural phenomena poetic
pre sent dent trumpeting not don
shearing, slamming,
and stripping off tree bark
(most definitely paging the innocuous Clark
Kent, where like loess lain
during Pleistocene Epoch
rendered, manifested dark
kenning shroud likened
to world wide webbing em brace
where lava floes easily did
(like a poetic souped up Chevy)
out to chase innocent prey
smoothing over (akin to mason,
or gigantic glazier) clearly shining deface
of planet Earth with a smooth glassy like face
though starkly barren, bereft, bilked
every last trace of civilization
nonetheless exhibiting amazing grace
which global catastrophic event poo tin brake
fast upon ONE haughty, egoistic
arrogant *****Sapiens chief drake
particularly Reich king machine "FAKE"
superman usurping free reign crowning himself
totalitarian American tyrant,
bare ring his right arms
emulating gesticulation sans dictatorship
of the Proletariat make
pact with credo of Karl, Harpo,
Groucho, and Chico Marx,
where mortals DID NOT quake
especially empowered youths
asper grassroots action they did take.
I'm senile, demented, a has been, a dud,
At least that's the story, the Republican fad,
Yet little they know in their haste to throw dirt,
That they're helping my cause with their views so absurd.
Each arrow they fly with anger and speed
Is akin to a child that as yet doesn't read,
It has no direction it lands off its mark,
Its aim misaligned, a shot in the dark.
But let them continue, this path suits me fine,
For while they're distracted I follow my line
Of making great changes, passing new laws,
Pushing them through despite the known flaws.
My ace up the sleeve I've yet to pull out,
The one that will make my enemies shout,
Trump’s just my ticket to another 4 years
Flooding Republicans in a torrent of tears.
So let him continue to posture and shout,
Instilling in voters that lingering doubt,
The choice never clearer between him and me
And just like the last time I’ll win out you'll see.
Towards thy very best
I project a saving nest
To save the wordy test
From the earthly pest
And to luck, leave the rest
As pure as a blank page
That gets poets' hearts into cage
The worries and bubbles of age
Get some disengage
And others enrage
Don't mind them-- every open tongue
Measuring the troubles of failed lung
Restrains those awesome lines unsung
Drown those swimmers so young
Without a practical provisional aqualung
You, be sure thy laboring sight
Travels horizon beyond their plight
And relinquish to ignite souls' lights
Poked amidst truth and lie to benight
Before thy ever gracious sprite, alights
Thanks for the nomination
I enjoyed all expressed intentions
Though there are some to mention
Dragging my contentious attention
Projecting a consequential convention
Mickey acts as ace basketball player
He soars sky high like a bird with the ball
Big sneakers flutter through airy layer
He isn’t bothered on the hard ground he’ll fall.
He soars sky high like a bird with the ball
He’s happy that’s how he’s able to score
He isn’t bothered on the hard ground he’ll fall
Knowing Minnie can’t be delighted more.
He’s happy that’s how he’s able to score
Big sneakers flutter through airy layer
Knowing Minnie can’t be delighted more
Mickey acts as ace basketball player.

Some say affection is a farce.
I’d surmise a soul who feels as such receives it in sparse parts.
Yet most will one day find themselves in amour.
As the Temptress ordains by coitus sustained, you will remain.
Not out of plight or by oath, but through providence.
For love is the ontological constant, so says the monogamous ominous.
That who created us oxytocin automatons with a volition so insidious, that both our spiritual and biological imperatives became synonymous.
If life were a game, than the deck is 51 cards; bearing one irrational inequivalence that's strikingly obvious.
The Ace of Hearts.
The fiercest and the kindest, as inconceivable as that may seem.
Yet if a boundless arithmetic exist in mathematics, than it will persist; to be the only quantity that realizes it’s infinite significance.
Glide on the wing then bank to the left
Dive with the wind then bank to the right
Soar on the cloud and feel the sky
So many unanswered questions why?
See the enemy's cloud and turn to fight
Picture that love you had in the corner of your eye
Adrenaline surge in the roar of the stride
Pierce the air with steel, give them nowhere to hide
Hear the gnashing teeth under stone white eyes
Strain the body with 'G', feel the tension cry
Dodge and weave, blank out thoughts on life
Fight with all you have in this outnumbered dog fight
Hero you are, hero you will always be
One of the bravest few who saved your country.
#IT'S TIME TO TAKE INVENTORY...
ITS TIME TO EVALUATE CERTAIN CATEGORIES...
JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING TAKES UP SPACE, DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN IT SHOULD...
OBTAIN
MAINTAIN
REMAIN
IN YOUR SPACE, NOR IN MINE.
LET'S KEEP IN MIND, THE QUESTION BEGS...
REGARDING SOMETHING OR SOMEONE,
WHAT...???
PURPOSE
FULFILLMENT
GROWTH
DEVELOPMENT
BETTERMENT
RAISED ELEMENT
WISDOM
ELEVATION
SHARED MOTIVATION
SHARED CELEBRATION
IS A MERE "FILLER" F U L F I L L I N G ?
IS IT OBSTRUCTING, HOW IT HELPING?
DOES IT NOURISH...DO YOU, DUE TO IT, FLOURISH?
DOES IT FEED YOUR NEED HOLISTICALLY?
DOES IT IMPEAD YOUR MENTAL SEEDS, SOBERING, (STARKLY) AND REALISTICALLY!
IS HE OR SHE "FAMILIAR" BEYOND THAT...
IS THERE ANY SUBSTANCE CONTRIBUTING TO SHARED IMPACT OR QUITE THE EXACT OPPOSITE, TO BE EXACT, FOR FACTS. BECAUSE, ANYTHING THAT SHOWS A LACK,
IN MUTUAL REGARD, NEEDS TO BE A DISCARD. WHAT GIVES OFF IN APPEARANCE, CAN CAUSE INTERFERENCE,
BY ALLOWING OR ACCEPTING "FLUFF" AS A WHOLE CONTENTION MEANINGFUL VERSUS
A "HOLE" IN THAT CONTENTION, SHODDY EXTENSION, PERHAPS (FULL OF BULL) AND
NO LONGER WORTH A MENTION.
WELL, IT'S TIME!
NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT TO GIFT* YOURSELF OF CLEAN AND CLEAR CRYSTAL *CHANGE-UP* WEALTH!
LET'S CLEAR THE SHELF...
TIME TO TAKE INVENTORY OF SELF!
ROUTINE CHECKS AND INSPECT...
RID WHAT'S ROTTEN, RID WHAT'S FORGOTTEN.
SAY GOODBYE TO MERELY FILLER AND ONLY
FLUFF LEFT OF FAMILIAR...
DAMN RIGHT! I'D RATHER BE*
REMAIN PARTICULAR; I'D MUCH PREFER TO CONDUCT A MAJOR SWEEP THAN "SETTLE"
DUST ACCUMULATED.
RUST ERODES TRUST, "CONCEPT"...
NO LONGER SITUATED, JUST WASN'T ELEVATED. NO SUBSTANCE.
MERE STUFF OF FLUFF, ENOUGH BLUFF!
IT'S WONDERFUL TO RID THAT OF WHICH DOES NOT BID* US OUR BEST!
NEVER SETTLE (ACCEPT) LESS.

Everybody loved his performances but he can't perform anymore.
Ace Frehley has died after having a fall at the age of seventy-four.
He was a man who millions of people will miss.
Frehley did a fantastic job as a member of KISS.
When KISS became a success, it was partly because of Ace's impact.
This man helped to make KISS a legendary band and that's a fact.
Because of his contribution, KISS is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
He has died and because of that, Rock and Roll will never be the same.
My deceased friend went to a KISS concert when they performed in Tennessee.
If the world lasts for a million more years, people will never forget Ace Frehley.
[Dedicated to Ace Frehley (1951-2025) who died on October 16, 2025]
fruitful is each breath, unpremeditational
dolphins jumping calm sea diagonal
as bumble bee pauses on swaying daisy
industry’s pollen for human folk’s honey
we all are lucky, don’t you see ?
sun rising each morn or hiding in winter
eclipsed by nebula, floating arbitrary blinkers
circling purest love within core soaring
unexpected finches settle, chirping linger
fertile soil unsolicited beneath our feet fortuitous is Gaia, gravity’s a blue-green feat
coffee’s black, sweet an incidental treat
incremental is our luck, not accidental
dribbling raindrops on window pane inadvertent
allow scribbles of verses in puddle concerted wings of wind float seeds, land lacy across loam
nothings by chance, sometimes we roam
naught’s coincidental, every positive serendipity underscores a negative
balance of forces appears chance, though every cookie’s appearance is
ALL’s intention dance
fortuitously I uncovered ageless trace of own
sixty-fourth gene codon, gleaning my life’s purpose previously unseen —- to be
transformational-inspirational poetry was genome’s message unhesitational ~
seemed random, opportune gift graces
unveiling heavenly aces
