Everyone Wears Makeup
Everyone wears makeup.
Not just blush and eyeliner
but masks we paint in silence,
to hide the storms inside us.
We wear it
when we’re trying to come clean
from telling a lie
that lived too long in our lungs.
We wear it

I Will Make Her Proud
It had only been a few days
Still unfamiliar with my grief, (it was my first time, you see...)
I was such a novice to the proper routine
Of condolences, phone calls, and flowers
Pity in the air, ...a...

Bank Robber's
we were young and dumb,
but not reckless,
two boys skimming the edge of fear,
a twenty-year-old shadow
and his seventeen-year-old brother,
riding the spine of Interstate Ten,
from Tallahassee to San Diego,
then back to Florida—
outlaws without blood on our hands.

like visitors from outer space
they came with tears, and lined the sidewalk
long in face, and arms embracing
some (I have no inkling) who
they were or why they felt compelled to come
dozens came with casseroles

illegal aliens
One evening, in a sleepy Connecticut town, the locals saw a peculiar sight,
a UAP had landed in an empty field, and man, it lit up the night.
They were, axiomatically, from a distant galaxy, here to...

Taters
They're known by many names - taters, potatos, pertaters and spuds.
As a Hoosier lad I toiled hoein' taters and flickin' bugs off their buds!
So I was very well qualified when I entered the service, by...

Ballad of the Happy Valley Baptist Church
Accordin' to my totally unbiased and very detailed research,
Jerimiah Flood pastored the Happy Valley Baptist Church.
From the pulpit he flailed his arms as if fightin' a hive of bees,
Elicitin' "Hallelujahs" and bringin' sinners fallin'...

She is deliciously unhappy.

Autumn
How can it be that autumn so soon again is stealthily approaching,
With its pleasing sounds, scents and varied hues steadily encroaching!
The bouquets of summer have faded and their petals they have shed,
Now, the maple and...

Stinky Pete Cooper - Poop
My neighbor, Pete, is very frustrated
For two weeks he has been constipated
Then, in Poetry Soup
I heard him yell, "Whoop Whoop!"
His laxative had been activated!
He eats spicy food and lot of legumes
Where he shows up, a...

The Color of Love
How to describe the color of love? Might you frown in surprise if I spoke of brown? Dull, pockmarked, ocherous brown.
A tarmac of grain, stained the color of earth, that never saw...

As Seasons Change
Which is it?....
An ending, or a beginning?
Seasons, circling around each other like rustling leaves...
Which one steals the show, takes the glory?
With crimson crepe myrtle blossoms bursting
Yet struggling, hanging on in spite of north wind blowing.

Spice of Life
Eat and enjoy life more
Eat and don't forget spice
Spice makes many things nice
Spice is great on vegetables
Vegetables with nutrients
Vegetables you can savor
Savor salads with leafy greens
Savor buttered corn or potatoes
Potatoes stuffed with chili
Potatoes in casseroles
Casseroles...

Where Were You Tonight
The wind beats blue against my chest tonight
Of all the days you could have left –
Nail my palms to my eyes I don’t want to see
What the world has done to me.
The swollen silver...

Rare Cooking This Fine Morn
Rare Cooking This Fine Morn
To have deep-thoughts, dreams a poet slowly eats
Or spiced casseroles of ink-piggy feats?
Meals written on yellow paper to enjoy.
Chinese fried rice with steamed adjective soy!
Experience new dishes, of rare flavor
Spread like...

I Recall the Smell of That Place
I Recall the Smell of that Place
I recall the smell of that place.
It came from the small side cafeteria.
I ate there daily for two months of my young life;
From the heat of September 1959,...

Green Bean Casseroles
Shame on those who malign the green bean casserole!
It gustatory delightfulness I shall e'er extol!
With 'fork in cheek' I'll take nonbelievers to task,
And their foibles and biases will strive to unmask!
Folks who disdain this dish...

Nudnick
Nudnick
By Sy Roth
Self, I say
Self,
Wake up.
Your ganglions
Are asleep again.
Wakey, wakey…
Those around you, nudnick,
Are whirling dervishes
Those who come and go
In the Speakeasys of their lives
And I am a silent partner.
Wake up...

Ode
Evening With the Neighbors
Allegorically tangled
with pink braids and lips that sparkle with blue paint
deeply connected to nature
while waxing the house plant's leaves
to a green, clean shine...
Perhaps that's me today.
For, tonight, we will invite the flamingos for dinner
-these...
