MOON ON A SPOON

(Sponsor : Kai Michael Newmann)

MOON ON A SPOON 

If I could I would 
fetch you the moon 
on a spoon

Oh ? Really ! 
you ballyhoo coon
you make me swoon

If I could I would 
fetch you the moon 
on a spoon

Why not bring me 
a chocolate cocoon 
I will wriggle out 
festooned !

If I could I would 
fetch you the moon 
on a spoon

We will eat it at noon
in our magical room
then to our doom !

If I could I would 
fetch you the moon 
on a spoon

My goon, so goop !
Where are you from ?
a souk goof ?

If I could I would 
fetch you the moon 
on a spoon
 
How ?

Lo ! I do not know !
My spoon has
sailed with a 
monsoon 

And the moon
has fallen into
a true blue
lagoon too
soon !

Pop Ups and Cookies Slam

Pop ups
&
Cookies

Just seen an advert
Enquiring if i need the services ?
Of a life coach

Swipped left and then thought

Exactly what and where the hell ?

Do you study to become 1 of them

The Circus
Or an amusement park

Best i consult my horoscope
Tarrot card's
Psychic or medium

Faith healer
Crystal ball
Self help books

But what else would you expect

When you click on Amazon

And where does 1 apply

To become a life coach 

Like on thoses god awful website's

Such as Gwyneth Paltrows
Gift to the world

GOOP

Thank the Lord
We are not worthy
What would we do without ?

Such sage advice
As unconscious coupling
Part-time marriage
And flu immune friendly soup
Designer lifestyle and beauty tips

All of which are well and good
If you are an emotionless robotic millionaire
With a coach for everything and anything
From wiping your bum to putting your underwear on the correct and proper way

But hey who am i to judge
I do not know you
Your current circumstance
Your life nor what you are feeling

So maybe it's best i just shut up
And carry on clicking

Premium Member Fluffer-Nutters

When I was a child 
I loved marshmallows
so soft, so gooey and yummy
Oh I'd beam out of doors
when the birch stick bore
charred marshmallow goop
for my tummy!

When I was a child
I would go hog wild 
for peanut butter and fluff
all that white marshmallow
in which I'd wallow
my mouth all covered
in sticky stuff!

My Mom often spread
the white Fluff on bread
with peanut butter galore
And we'd bypass the meat
for this sticky treat
and scream for her to
buy much, much, more!

But you see Mom knew
that good food it's true
can make children strong unlike 
those sweet Fluffer-Nutters
so we had to contend
with the meat in the end
if we wanted that treat 
from our Mother!

Distinct From Destroyer

Twenty teens relic of Poetry Soup
Self richeously titled 'Destroyer'
Pours gallons of gobblety goop
Franchised vagueness purveyor

Esteemed evaporates as steam
Puffed vapours stutter once were 
Sophistication of learning machines 
On command deliver similar blur 

Structure secures tenures
Moulded by word discernment
Evolving phrasing reverence 
Salutes Her Honour's adjournment 

Sock drawer tipped upside down
Displays threadbare mismatches
Spilled contents far less profound
than moment incubation hatches 

Simmering pungent chopped onion 
Shrunken potential, slips translucent
Terrified writer uses cliche crutches
Readers' precious alliance loosened 

A.I inhales sailing sequence snippets 
Derivative diminishes in computer reign
Harddrive heartache flimsily depicted 
Random frequent phrases fail to explain 

Gathered calamity of data diaphanous 
Hive imput spits cacophony deafening
Authenticity bears value of writers
Trophies consciousness refreshing

Premium Member Ladies of the Poetry Soup

Today I write for the women, of the Poetry Soup.
Tuesday’s poem of the day was more like bigotry goop.
More hate was spit out by an imbecile’s rant.
I would love to shut your mouth, you’re just lucky I can’t.

Your words aren’t appreciated nor will they ever be.
You don’t speak like a real man a coward is what I see.
Why would you attack women? That’s just pathetic and weak.
Would your mother approve of the words that you speak?

You’re entitled to your opinion as I am to mine.
But bring your hate to this platform and I’ll speak up every time.
A woman gave you life and wiped your worthless rear.
Mothers do a lion’s share of the work, not you my dear.

You need to reboot and think before you boast.
You show your intelligence by the words that you post.
I’m sorry dear ladies you don’t deserve any more pain.
You have my love and respect, no matter what this fool claims.

Animating Innate Vibrance

Inside. 
We feel a collide. 
Like a flying dinosaur. 
Like our core that pours. 

Inside. 
We feel something like pride. 
We do not feel as if we are in a prison. 
More like- a window that melts like resin. 

Inside, Inside. 
We live with insects that cried.
Those bugs that cause us to twitch. 
Those bugs that make us cackle like a witch. 

Inside…
We…cried. 
Tears like alphabet soup. 
Fingers like goop. 

Inside, dadada. 
We cry as if it’s our last hurrah. 
But instead, we use our melting hands. 
Our minds tangled like hair strands. 

Inside. 
We write because it is raining outside. 
Out there.
It’s like outer space, for all we care. 

Inside we are animated.
We write as if we are ill fated. 
But there is more-
Paper scattered on the floor. 

Inside. 
Not like outside. 
Where we have tools all around.
But instead we write without a sound.

Premium Member Elven Berry Cream

It’s true, the afternoon is young;
I’ll make a bet:
Before the sun has set,
Strawberries will have sprung
From underneath your tongue.

Delectable, yes, tres delish
You won’t forget: 
Exceeded, not just met,
Beyond your wildest wish,
A creamy berry dish.

The finest, richest creams -
The forest elves
Again outdid themselves:
Confectionary dreams
From unicorns, it seems.

In fields of magic dust,
Wild-grown berries
Picked by woodland fairies:
A culinary must,
A name the elvish trust.

Sweet crystals, careful mined
Where dragons roar,
Demanding always more.
By serpent’s fire refined,
Then stolen from them blind.

Stirred over elvish flame,
The paddles turned
By giant ogres, learned
Before before the dark lord came
and sullied their great name.

Quick-flashed in icy streams,
Both fluff and stiff,
A jazzy berry riff,
With old world notes it teems,
A tastebud’s wettest dreams.

Alas, we must regroup!
Supply chain blues,
There is no time to lose:
Store-bought, pink berry goop -
Perhaps a double scoop?

Premium Member Our Aunt Jolene

Dad’s oldest sister, Aunt Jolene blew into town in the middle of the night.
She was armed with knowledge, ready to straighten us up, and make us all do right.
My children would do this and that, she’d shout from Daddy’s confiscated Lazy-Boy throne.
She was a self-proclaimed expert, since she had never had any of children of her own.
Dad thought having Aunt J was great; You are just like Mom, he’d tell her politely.
“No offense,” she replied, “But that old woman was wound a bit too tightly.”
On Wednesday she made the family an outrageously ugly pot of mushroom soup.
The baby got away after gagging while trying to choke down that chunky goop.
She cleaned our rooms while we were in school, and threw away all of my really good stuff.
One look from Dad, and I knew not to give her any of my usual angry guff.
“How long is she staying?” we kids would sneakily yet stealthily and steadily ask our Mom.
We piled into one of our empty rooms, conspiring, hoping the answer would be “not long.”
On Thursday morning we were told at breakfast that Aunt Jolene would be staying ‘til Sunday night.
She cleaned Mom’s kitchen at nine, sorting out the silverware drawer too, and was gone that very night.

This Ghoul Dolled Up

Whether the weather 
necessitates to anchor 
     myself as a tether
when the frankenstorm 
     socks the east coast 
     shredding terrestrial 
     zone like soft leather
i may end up attired 

     in esprit de corpse 
     being tossed hither and yon 
     to and fro like a feather.
If...the forecast imbues  
     meteorologists flooded with folly
making a mockery 
     of humanity run amuck 
     in panic mode - by golly

this mortal male will don himself as 
     "the chief garbage" taster 
     with a garland of holly
shuffling along the 
     boulevard of broken 
     tin cans and rubbish 
     feigning to be melancholy.
This getup a throw
 
     back to a costume  
     adorned this papa when 
     he attended grade school
eons ago, where corporal punishment 
     prevailed in case  
     student disavowed any rule
such as smoking in the boys' room  
     cigarette such
 
     manufactured by Kent or kool
or lambasting any unlikable teacher, 
     (whose bookish face) at 
     receiving end of 
     pranks rather cruel.
So...presume that Halloween 
     will take place without any axe
of nature to grind monster
 
     brewing at sea
and picture this poet decked 
     out dumpster diving 
     for the most fetid trash 
     and materiel with cracks
to be affixed upon 
     a heavy duty sack 
     with goop from
 
     sullied foodstuffs - 
     a cause for glee
rotten meat infested 
     with maggots, shards of glass, 
     crushed metal cans, 
     et cetera to the max
will be haphazardly splayed 
     (Jackson Pollack like)
 
     on this sturdy cloth 
     that will drape me
spurring a conga like of hungry beasts 
     ready go pounce – menacing 
     ferocious wolf packs
adding to the welter per helter skelter 
     of decayed detritus distributed 
     from head to knee

and a set of punishing 
     pronged antlers spiking out 
     in all directions upon 
     ma noggin-hence to tax
utmost fear in passersby, and quite 
     an abominable sight to see.

Premium Member Darling Have I Ever Told You

Have I ever told you that frogs make me sneeze?
Or that faerie angels pretty much often aim to please?
Have I mentioned that through the brambles of Rome,
There are many thorns that scratch an itch in my poem?

Have I ever said that you need to untie your belt and live?
Or that you need to swing upwards into a battle ship sieve?
Have you ever pictured yourself in a bowl of hot tomato soup?
Can you imagine taking a bath in that glorious goop?

You have mentioned that you want to have more joy in your life.
You have asked for advice, and I have tried to comply, as your wife.
Have I ever told you that you need to play? Be a kid again?
I am telling you this, for I am your best and oldest friend.

Let’s sing and dance, wiggle around and play the kazoo.
It would be good for me and great for you.
Have I ever told you I am glad you are my man? My king?
It is truly the most important and exciting thing.
