Once "City of Big Shoulders,"
 Stockyards and industrial concerns:
  A man's self-worth measured
   By muscle and energy burned.

Today the stockyards are shuttered,
 The Face of Livelihoods changed;
  From Meat-packing and Manufacturing---

The jokes here about leaders show 
How uniformed we truly are.
Some supernatural......sinless, poets 
living up with the twinkling stars?

What planet do you live on?
The great “unelected” white washed 
masses?

I see many whose...

Deep in thoughts that float 
Into your mind and your imagination

About your ancestors and what kind of life they had

The Rum Runners

Dry was the USA a hundred years ago.
Prohibition just begun, and spirits running low.
Then, to the rescue, fishermen, fresh from the Georges Bank,
Weighed down their boats with “demon rum” instead of fishing tanks.

And it was better for a while.

Put the pork-n-beans

Let the kiddies run wild

then try to reign ‘em in

Publican politicians talk in half-price right angles
Dodge City liberty
being smoking barrel bargain sold 
at a chill, 
Colt-45 degrees
AC (alcoholic crops) bootleggers selling 
Prohibition license to breathe

Drunken Al Capone clones
riding shotgun, 
spit spraying
automatic fire taxable oppression

It’s a Nineteen-Twenties tune—forgive me, I was born too soon,
Going to fake it anyway, and bring back yesterday.
Inka-dinka-do, that old soft shoe—and I danced with Georgia Brown.
Muskrat rag—“can you spare me a fag?”—
And the stock...

My poems are growing longer
When reciting I run out of puff
My lungs, once much stronger
Struggle with long-winded stuff

So, I'm writing this short refrain
To curb my penchant to ramble
I'm trying my best to abstain
From including excess...

If you doubled the size of medium-petite,
that would be ripe for a man like me.
I prefer a jiggle when I spank that ass.
Then watch it spring to attention, extremely fast.
