Long Batty Poems

The summer is over and people are getting viler
The sky is overcast and the birds are flying around
It feels like a stranger has just entered the town.

The sun is burning the passion out of me
And water is springing up all over me

She was a dairymaid, oh so sweet;
many a year ago.
Her figure was trim, her hair was neat,
with ringlets tied up in a bow.
And many a farmer would leave his plough,
the turkeys and chickens, and even...

is a terrible, Transylvanian host
Mister Tarantula Fangs serves watered down pâté:
Fermented, sour liver compost

campy lip sync way too much on the fly
Playing air...

we don't think she's a good person, because she doesn't look and act like us.

Nutty grandpa president

His little Chucky thumbs

on the hate hot sauce bottle
stashed in his KKK closet
Now he’s sporting a Commander-in-Chief cap,

S'more sprawling poppycock

Chock·a·block discombobulated poem
for your reading pleasure
dashed off ad hoc

I had a dream — 
different ... dark ... obscure
Mine’s wasn’t like Martin Luther King,
it was different
So very dark to the core
In my dream I saw his dream
masquerading as a fantasy
There were separate, reality TV...

While we dwell to this dreidel,
I seek to know before a sear,
Even in the most ineluctable dandle,
The fruit to which may indeed bear;
In the imbue oblivion, I tell a riddle,
Most morass yet merely in fear,
For...

Going to Connie Mack Stadium would be good.
However, I don’t like walking through that neighborhood.

That damn weekly times (circa 1900), 
Afternoonified with Gigglemugs
sending me off my chump
Editors Half-rats, Not up to dick,
the meater.

Genderfied, I am
A woman of incredible script,

deemed a whooperup,
yet her prose is
umble-cum-stumble.

The longing expressed
through the lovers...

The Tweetamol as you will see
Is strange beyond deformity.
You’ll gasp, then gape and then declare,
‘I’ve never seen a bird with hair!

A hairy bird- what’s that about?’
You’ll hear yourself begin to shout.
And if you’re lucky you...

Not to walk this lonely dark road
For this was the night that they would all come out
This is what Halloween was about.
Out of the shadows they all came

She’s fascinated whenever

Hard of Hearing.

I went to visit Gran
to brighten up her day.
But that crazy batty women

and how her bunions hurt, then she'll ask,

The different paths we are on
You have money and I have none
You are a star

Has Granny gone batty?
She tells us of love,
Of flowers and trees  
And a thing called a ‘dove’.
But none of these things exist now today,
Since the world heated up
And the lakes turned to clay.

It is true that Jamaica is rich in tradition
and history,

Jamaicans don't view the world as everybody else
