halloween party memory from 1974
my makeup was fabulously light green, lips ruby red
I fit in well with the theme, witches, warlocks and the undead
the blue I had sprayed in my hair glittered like starlight
when we entered the party, a...

Dear Santa
Dear Santa, will you make my dream come true?
Although a little costly it may be,
I still believe there’s nothing you can’t do.
So could you please provide a cruise for me?
I’m not too picky. Any cruise...

A Friendly Exoneration
Twinkly bunch with loaded school bags
Ambition injustice and itching their backs,
Cunning those faces in front of the gate
Heedful pupils well-chosen apparently late.
A fistful primary breeziness
Shared with smiles, tears and silliness,
Together they brawled, together...

Driving Thru Rat Race Maze
I ain't gonna brag, boast, blab...,
lest yours truly suffers demise from backstab,
resignedly taking wheel of our automobile

Drama
It’s a messed up world out there, we all got trauma
Real question is, do you avoid the drama?
When someone tells you secrets, do you blab em to the world?
Or keep ‘em locked up like you...

Turning It Over To Him
I want to be able to care for my child
And maybe just maybe feel normal for a while
I haven't felt emotionally right
When I lose my patience my guard goes up and automatically I want to...

To Endure
some endure this wasteland because
they have to,
not because they want to---
yes, optimistic idiots,
this means that they stick around,
that they don’t put the gun in their mouths &
blow their skull out onto the wall behind them
because
others...

Secrets
Some secrets should never be told
Other secrets are too big and bold
Some secrets bring you so much joy
A lot of secrets aggravate and annoy
There are so many secrets in this world
So many that we could...

Illusive Unicorns
I’ve never seen a unicorn,
I do not know their source.
I know PD has seen them
Because she says she loves them.
I think she fears someone would come
To take her pets by force,
So she protects her unicorns

Accusing the War Criminal
when the “dignitary,”
the president or the lesser puppet
stands down from their post
to “write” their book &
blab on the lecture circuit,
those who remember the bloodshed
of which their administrations
were responsible
make their way to the front
to grab...

Babel

Babel: “A bottomless pit of violence, a Tower of Babel where all are speakers and no hearers.” Alexander Smith
The preachers preach what they've been taught.
Reporters say what they’ve been told.
The politicians lie and lie.

I'M Mad As Hell - In Trump's Own Words
I'm mad as hell
I thought I had it in the bag
But this leftie groundswell
Throws in an unexpected snag.

Gorges on the outcome
They shout it's me you have to blame
To the beat of...

Shy Unicorn
Shy Unicorns
When Noah built his sturdy ark,
he was supposed to save
two of every creature.
Somehow he missed the shy unicorns.
God with His all-seeing eye,
watched him mess up.
He took two of them and placed them
high on a...

Whatever You Say, Dear
“Whatever you say, Dear”,
Seemed like a safe thing to say;
It’s a harmless enough little line.
“Whatever you say, Dear”;
I was repeating every day;
Got me out of trouble all of the time.
It didn’t even matter that I...

We started out sailing in a sleek sloop
To find poems planted in Poetry Soup
Until after we had looked in plain view
And it turned out to be oyster stew.

Dueling Parents
one starts by talking about
what they did on the weekend,
subtly sliding in the name of their
kid &
the bragging rights get pulled
just as quickly as the pistol at
high noon in a
spaghetti western---

Racking, fracking, fricker dickers -
there it goes again stirring all my inner jitters;
my pc, tablet, phone and friends
blank screens locked immovable in place again
while tweets and texts disappear in phantom space.
Techno blab excites me
