Long Guacamole Poems

The Avenue of Gastronomic Delight

Down the broad avenue called Gastronomic Delight
City life gathers when twilight awakens;

In eateries, drive-ins, greasy spoons and taverns – jumpin’ joints jumpin’
Like Snoopy with his dish doing the suppertime dance;

Lured by...

Exploring your soul is beautiful
But to do so is frightening
Relinquishing of rules
Rejecting labels

Soul searching can look and feel like you are broken
The cracks form, but light floods in
The reality of self imposed constraints suddenly feels...

The skin beneath her fingertips felt rough and cold.

Sa isang malamig na sulok ng lilim,
girian ay lumalalim,
liwanag laban sa dilim,
araw ay palubog ng palubog,
dahan-dahan,
mahinahon,
ngunit ang iniwa'y dumudugong kalawakan,
pulang-pula,
ito ay rebolusyon ng pag-ibig,
himagsikan sa araw ni santo valentino,
tulad ng spaghetii al' amatriciana,
sa ating harapan...

THE  MEXICAN

I went over to my friends house last night.
I love it when he smiles with a grin,
He holds the door open, and welcomes me in.
With a style of a gentleman.

Les C. More back from the vay-cay holidays,
giving my poetry peeps
a look-see at an odd Klondike meet




He ain’t nothing but
small potatoes
Trying to live
big-talk lettuce large

His backsliding snowshoes
walk so holey
That short con grifter grin
spin tall tales...

Life could be better, but easily worse.
Sometimes I feel blessed; other times cursed.
As I get older, I look back and see—
Life’s mostly better when you are with me
Together we’re like…

Chips and salsa, with some cilantro...

Feels great to hear another Golden Oldie
People quick to say okey dokey
Often doing the hokey pokey
Rollie Pollie
Holy Moley
Working toward a Gold Rollie
Stacking up the guacamole
And the blue cheese on the low-key

There was betrayal
And dismayal
Folks quick...

Cheese dip slip


The cheddar and gouda were ready, my hand with the knife very steady
The party was moments away and I had to be quick

The chips and hors d’oeuvres were all plated, but still I...

If you become too deceptive or misleading, 
be candid and upright, for you shall prevail. 
When it is really affection you are needing,
make spreading love your nonfictional tale. 
For life is hard enough when faith...

Heck of a Day 
I was sitting on a bench watching people go by.
Up and down the mall, in all shapes and size.

Across from me was a wanne be model..
Long legged, tiny waist, an "air...

Oreos with chocolate chips
  Potato sticks with onion dip

Drip the cheese all over those fries
  Three scoops of ice cream and apple pie
 
Frito-lay corn chips beside a guacamole-filled bowl
  Don't forget...

I used to wonder
If you remained 
Completely comfortable
Would you ever wake from sleep
It brings to mind the value
Of slight discomfort
Causing you to wake
And live your life again
The cycle of needing a jolt
Or drifting forever in...

Chips and Salsa (22 Feb 2019)

Life could be better, but easily worse.
Sometimes I feel blessed, other times cursed.
As I get older, I look back and see—
Life’s mostly better, when you are with me.

Sometimes we argue,...

Apple crumb and angel food cakes
Butterscotch banana shakes
Chili, Chinese, cheese, and chips
Doughnuts, deviled eggs and dips
Éclairs, English fish and chips
Fudge, fondue, fritters and French crepes
Guacamole, gumdrops, frosted grapes.
Hash browns, hot dogs, ham and honeyed scones

Front door

The turning key clicks
A vacuum sound as door pulled
All of nature's cold air explodes
A rooster crows

Flood of sounds

A woodpecker is feeding on a post
Silly bird, like dynamite booms
That sound is heard
Doesn't slow other birds

The...

Start your revolution secretly,
don't tell the priest,
he's a blabber-mouthed gutter-skite.

Don't tell the cat,
for at might he whispers to Alexa,
and she listens always
to the political tenor of your snoring.

Your body must be mechanically sound,
and on speaking...

Juan (Johnnie) Avocado Seed

Making castles at the Rancheria 
In the dust with the pits where he sits
Until told of a...

Regular ones are lighter on the tongue and lips

I may be unpopular in this thought
But I’ve considered this more than I ought

It comes  from my extra ordinary culinary wealth

Pseudo Criminal


Spic and span
Washing laundry like dirty guacamole cash
In Miami sand..... buried hidden Latin trash
Hurray for the tango so grand

Pseudo criminals holding poetic book
When everyone knows they are the crooks
The underbelly of wrong upbringings
Margaritas tasting...
