I Loved You, John Wayne
I loved you John Wayne!
I wished you were my father
or maybe an older brother
who’d tutor me to be tough
when manners weren’t enough
and toughness was needed
that civility be heeded
and not to brag or complain.
O I...

Deep Sleep of Foreigner's Flagon
For twenty years,
Tears in-between,
Rain and rust
And gray-beard dust.

A languid man snores
While robins lay eggs
In his briery beard.
Blue and yellow eyes
Startle awake.
Oh what trouble
To sleep...

On a table laden with condiments;

And say grace which presupposes our content.
But as we eat, the elephant harrumphs
To lead our banter...

Puck's Mistake
Puck, being a dummy is something you can't deny.
You took that flower's nectar, and put it on the wrong guy.
