"Dandylion" 

The guy was a

there was

roaring non-garrulous

declaring

Me, an aging baby boomer
long haired pencil necked geek
burning, depleting, using... fossil fuels,
thus a global nonrenewable resource(s)
repentant consumer
admitting heavily trod carbon footprint
additionally deeply enmired
within very late adolescence,

hence I shriek
with utter dismay
starkly aware personal hygiene
suffers direct...

Me crazy, frenzied, rabid. But lo how I love

In the beginning was the word
Before that, no noun, no thing
Then no sound was ever heard

Rodents can be loquacious
That includes your average gerbil
They love to prattle, chat and blather
They really are quite verbal

Hamsters are talkative too

Where breathing seeks to set example
For future generations on thresholds
Of honest wit staying apt and ample
Poets questioning meaning in long life
While judging and evoking honesty
They hold themselves above impending strife

 let the truth be known;
politics are garrulous about freedom and what they’re going to do

Fake furs, fashionable fools, firm friends fleeing...

TODAY’S WOMAN
