Long Airbag Poems

he was not dumb 

but he struck his thumb

now he was dumb-struck

and screamed jolly good

his hand in plaster

and bad luck his master

he could not drive his truck


to bide his time

he drank some wine

set out to...

I drove home from a party one winters night
I'd had quite a few drinks but I felt alright
It was pouring rain as I approached our town
My girlfriend said to me, "John will you slow down"...

The car started to skid…
I was having a catch with my Dad;
I re-attended every birthday party
that I had ever had.

This fleeting love was so
Mustang GTO
One zero zero mpg galloping flow
Past percentages said: don’t make the wrong turn
Cool convertible joyride took a cardiac slow burn,
lip swerve around the infidelity curve
Rubber denials hit the road,
asphalt inquiries...

Hey! What if a computer were a car?
So much more economical, by far!

You see at once advantages galore

A virtual computer set on wheels.....
This surely is the very best of...

You never ignore yourself.
You....a finger pointing nowhere.
You flap; make waves,
what else you got?
A flashy kite with no sky
that's what.

If a vulture and a jellyfish
gave birth to an offspring,
they would name it: Ego.

A monstrously beautiful blob...

It was a dark, snowy night,
My blurry eyesight,

I'm just trying to get from point a to B
But I can barely see,

I can hardly walk, talk, stand,
My slurred speech,

I know I shouldn't be driving,
But nothing will...

Full speed ahead on the racetrack of manipulation

Safety belt suspending the breaks in free flight

Tear
A word with dual Meanings,
The effect of an emotion 
And then the other;
To rip apart into pieces 

My Scar of the tear,
Etches on my body in different concepts
One i got from mother nature on my...

Have you ever had a bad day,
You know one that starts out wrong,
And you wish it would end,

Well I had one just yesterday,
And as the day continued to...

Record my voice and listen to my brainwaves.
I'm a dragon ready to tear up the sky, no lie, I'm two-headed with the mental capacity of a possum.

Here is just a little clue,   
Look inside the words I write,
Other words hide in there, too,
When packed in tight, they unite.

Scapegoat is the first one,
I don’t think a goat’s aware,
Escaping from this...

Sometimes I seem to muddle through* somehow
but English "muddle" cannot outline
a Russian sin split in two parts, a dao
divided into yin and yang, a whine
of lonely hummer in the lack of sickle,
a German bread without...

In an empty car lot,

Airbag,
CRASH!

We miss the hounding
We miss the hail damage sales
We miss the drag-it-in trades

Empty lots

Airbag,
Crash!!!

When we gettin’ the bail out
Closing overseas
Closing 35%

Dusty, empty lots

Airbag,
CRASH!!!

Dropping lesser brands
Higher fuel standards
When we getting’ the bail...
