Premium Member Hands of Goo


   The smeary fingers,
   Left unwashed.
   Leave prints,
   All over the gloss.

   On bright metal handles,
   Drawers semi closed.
   Up and down walls,
   Even on a nose.

   Momma said, "Wash your hands!
                         Your fingerprints,
                         Are all over my things, I think.
                         Makes the ins and outs of kitchens,
                         Grimy with goo!"

   Not realizing of what she spoke,
   Continuing on with grimy fingers.
   The day caught up with me 
   And my nose!

   My hands got stuck,
   To my nose!
   Rolling about on the floor,
   I began to roar.

   "I don't want to walk on my knees.
     Or shuffle on my toes.
     Please help me get unstuck,
    From my nose!"

   Momma just smiled.
   Took a hot wet cloth,
   Got me unstuck from my nose.
   Stretched me out and washed me from head to toes.

   Now I wash my hands.
   Many times, a day.
   Make many bubbles, 
   Put them in my hair.

   Momma just sighs, "Try not to get soap in your eyes."

Premium Member Spice Doesnt Like Me Anymore

Spice doesn’t Like me Anymore
David J Walker

Spice doesn’t like me anymore
A taco would be nice
With a little Spanish rice but
Spice doesn’t like me anymore

Some frijoles with grated 
cheddar cheese
would be fine but let  me
add please, 
leave off the jalapeno 
cause its just No Bueno
Spice doesn’t like me any more

At one time I could eat it with ease
But now not even Chinese
That Goo goo Guy Pan is for a 
Younger man
Cause Spice doesn’t like me anymore

So  what am I supposed to eat
That doesn’t have just a little heat
There are very few dips 
As good as Salsa and Chips 
Too bad

Cause Spice isn’t nice
And nothing will suffice 
And it’s hard to think twice
About paying the price
For guacamole with chipotle  
Once more 

But Spice doesn’t like me 
Anymore

Percipient Papa Guru Courtesy Deux Darling Goo Goo Dolls

Impossible mission for yours truly,
sans this dada to validate
those two most significant mentors,
no paternal biased trait,
(who I helped beget) enroute to great
adventures toward enormously

enviously exciting destinations,
thus birth father doth ululate
eternal burning tears boding
indefinite fare thee well,
cuz propensity to 
become autonomous innate

within each body electric,
and offload emotional freight
unnervingly, unscrupulously, unwittingly...
within impressionable off
us spring psychs did create,
(especially thine eldest)

perceived intentionally deliberate
indelible, unbearable, undeniable,
unforgettable, unlearnable, unpardonable,
untenably insufferable state
psychological crimes, misdemeanors,
and punishments who bore brunt

regarding mine cratered distrait
parental moon unit gravitational pull
thus itching to break free
and cleared eighteenth circuit atop oblate
spheroid around nearest star
December twenty second, sans

(bench marked circa 1996), her birthdate
I unknowingly long fostered
execrable despicableness and did generate
antipathy, loathsomeness, vileness...
ripe opportunity she hightailed out our
reprehensible company she did hate

despising dirt poor existence portrait-
quick to compare/contrast our pennilessness
with rich Mainliners, where dire strait,
i.e. particularly financial since household
income equaled zilch figuratively

queued, hexed, aligned... with eight
ball, cuz we wanted progeny late
in life, despite afflictions
with mental illness
additionally unkempt, unsightly, untidy,
where chaos and entropy did administrate

residence discouraged "star student,"
nee repulsed offering extending
invites to any chummy classmate,
plus inapropos behavior,
I exhibited oblivious impact
analogous bing saddled to heavyweight

see millstone upon first born psyche
even now, she smolders
thus doth dissociate
with this "sir" and missus,
oh yes...much more aye could narrate!

Goo

I called me a worm.
A caterpillar.
I told me to molt.
Become someone different,
And unfamiliar.
Wrapped in a cocoon,
And turned into goo.
In a stage of growth,
And that can hurt the most,
But I’ll pry myself out.
Im something strange,
Something changed,
Less deranged,
But similar.
Still I just feel like goo.
A froglet to frog,
Larva to pupa,
Tadpole to toad.
Even termites show growth.
One day,
I’ll be fully grown.
So I’ll spread my wings,
Not,
Because I told me to.
Not,
Because I said I should.
Not,
Because I said I would.
But,
Because I’m ready to be shown.
For now though,
For now,
I have no issue,
Being goo.

Goo Goo G,Joob - Goodbye To You

I met a man in a playful tune
Who had a thought I thought I knew
He said to me goo goo g'joob
Does anything sound more real to you

We were out standing in a field
With fresh strawberries dancing at our heels
In a moment a bit too surreal
Continue on Bungalow Bill

We moved past a four-man line
As we slipped into dream #9
Being there for the benefit of Mr. Kite
When Lucy and her diamonds fell from the sky

A day in the life left tragically
Our mystery tour on a yellow submarine
The revolution of love has now left the building
In a puddle of memories out on the street

She held your hand to comfort you
The color of love now the color of blue
Till the bitter end, you sang passion true
Goodbye to you Goo goo g'joob...

Premium Member aunt goo is really something

She threw the best birthday party at eighty-three.
With a hip hip hooray and a whimsical whee…
We could barely get tickets, everyone was there.
She was dancing the watusi in her pink underwear.

Don’t sweat the small stuff, she said, girly girl!
Her hair was dampish, and her legs were a swirl.
Aren’t you afraid you will overdo? I asked Goo.
She laughed until her neck almost broke in two.

I jumped into the fray and danced with two old men.
She is really something! Said the old one, named Hem.
I have known her since elementary, and she is a peach!
I did not have to tell him she was way out of his reach.

Premium Member Teddy and I

TEDDY AND I 

Teddy is my childhood cuddly toy,
Who brought me a lifetime of joy,
He listened to all my baby cries,
Biding his time to reveal
His surprise!
I sucked on his ear, 
Had a regular chew,
Whilst I spoke to him in 
Gobbly  goo!
One day I dropped him, 
Ouch, he cried,
Don’t do that again
If you do not mind!
When he spoke I got such a fright,
I screamed with all my might
I was two,
Teddy too!
But intrigued, so poked him here,
And there,
Hey Teddy said, that tickles,
Which gave me 
Unstoppable giggles!
We decided no one must know,
Hush he said, not to a soul!
Teddy as he grew older, look bruised
And battered, for which 
He was well excused.
He’d lost his one eye so he 
Couldn’t well see,
And always stayed, 
Very close to me.
His arms and legs 
Had drooped,
If he stayed up too late, 
He was pooped.
On my 50th birthday, 
He was fifty too,
A life led by teddy,
Perhaps lived by few,
He had been loved all  
Of his life so much,
But his fluff has now become  
Less, due to every hug, and
Cuddly clutch!
He’s still with us up to this day, 
But is grumpy and will glare,
Jealous of hubby, a stare  
Out, between human and bear!

Premium Member Prickles and Goo

the World divided
Sharp as Pins
     Soft as Pulp
I wondered
     which am I

the drunk at the far-end barstool
     jawline submerged in stale foam
a man dissolving
     bubble by bubble

Prickles
     they parse me
with laws & Edges
     promise Order
leave me peeled raw
     flensed
          a Skeleton
               in Glass

Goo
     crawls in
          through visceral vein-scrawls
     fever-sluiced
          laughter souring
     in the wake of a Lover misplaced
          her musk lingering
               like Smoke
                    lifting
                         then falling
          in a house
               where paint scales drop
                    across abandoned Rooms

the whiskey absconds
     the moon dangles skewed
          a nickel flung
               above pavement
                    over a Lot
                         that doesn’t give a damn

Then
     a Voice
          half-Jester
          half-Prophet
          half-something that knows me too well
     leans from gutterlight
          and scoffs
               Prickles-as-Penance
               Goo-as-Grief
                    the Joke that scolds
                    the Truth that congeals

I rasp at the riddle
     wedged between
          Thorn & Undercurrent
          Scar & Canticle
          Logic & Mucus
     a Body mid-rebuttal
          against its own
               Who am I

So I scribble
     fist quaking
          on the back of a losing Lottery Ticket
               a glyph branded
                    a verdict spat
                         through broken mouth

                              a last gut burst

                                        Love denied

Magaga Goo Goo

Patriotic Americans are disgusted with Trump news every morn,
all shaking their heads in disbelief at the prick who is a thorn.
With such an arrogant mien, his character is one of a pooh bah.
Always thinking he's above the law, as if he's king or maharaja.

Ridiculous is the new mantra that might be his campaign slogan.
It's just asinine and imbecilic. That's the opinion of Jenna Logan.
It sounds just like baby gibberish when he cries out, "MAGAGA!"
With Putin and Kim Jong Un as friends, who's next, the Hezbollah?

Melania read her script then returned to the annals of obscurity,
saying her hubby will lead America "by love, peace and security."
Lying words, she was commanded to read raised a few eyebrows.
I wonder what price she'd pay if to his agenda she'd not espouse.

It was reported that she swore and cursed using the "F" word
when asked about Christmas decorations, and was overheard
saying she didn't care at all about Christmas, and she was tired
of having to do things in the White House that were required.

One reporter said Trump's MAGAGA sounds like baby babble.
It'll become the new battle cry of his crowd, the motley rabble.
Their banner should be emblazoned with a snotty nosed child
throwing a tantrum, out of control and his anger running wild.

I know this post will not be met with agreement by some of you.
That's perfectly ok because you have the right to an opinion, too.
You can bash Joe Biden when on words and steps he may stumble
but as America's President, I fear Trump will once again fumble.

Can anyone be so blind not to see, by taking an honest reflection,
that he directed a mob to commit treason and an insurrection?
What hold does this immoral sleaze have over far too many?
With eyes open to reality, you'd see his dysfunctions are plenty.

I've never been a Democrat, nor a believer in the Republican ilk,
but I think Trump is a miscreant who'll keep taking all he can milk
from a country deserving to be held in high esteem and dignity.
But four more years of DJT will end in chaos from his malignity.
