Zenith University

Zenith University   

I am a proud graduate  
of Zenith University,  
where the quality stays on  
until the little dot  
shrinks and goes away.  

I attended that fine institution  
with Tom and Jerry,  
Heckl, Jeckl, Mickey, Minnie,  
Da?y, Donald, Daisy,  
Huey, Dewey, Louie,  
Speedy, Wile E., Gumby, Pokey,  
Yogi, Boo Boo, Dino, Chucko,  
Hobo Kelley, Lassie, Bozo,  
Betty, Barney, Bam Bam Rubble, 
Wilma, Pebbles, Fred,  
Casper, Felix, Sheri? John,  
Gentle Ben, and Mr. Ed.     

Astro, Elroy,  
Judy, George, and Jane--  
Eddie Haskell, Wally Cleaver,  
Mom and Dad and Little Beaver.    

Favorite Martian--Flying Nun,  
James Arness--smoking gun, 
Spanky and Alfalfa,  
Larry, Moe, and Curly.

Tests consisted   
of posted patterns.
To see those,  
you had to get up early  
like Jack LaLanne and Buns of Steel, 
Captain Kangaroo.  

Mid-morning classes included  
Monte Hall (quite a deal), 
Bob the Barker (not the builder). 

Allen Ludden passed the words, ...

American Gangster

In the movie Denzel said Bumpy Johnson was just as important as Martin Luther 
King
"Meditate"
Think about what that statement really means 
American Gangsters are idolized as Kings
And what Martin said is just a dream
Unfulfilled
Because to...

I watched your Father shot on live television.

Sealed by love’s fidelity to be forever sweethearts
Upheld as one flesh midst caring bond to the utmost
Never outgrowing honeymoon’s sweetness-nurture

Liberated hearts vanquish selfishness languishing
Optimizing warm togetherness around truth-mercy...

   Played trumpet like Satchmo, with panache and skill

Frank

I know a unique man.
He served in a country that produced broken bodies and souls.
Agent Orange defoliant became part of him there, 
to ensure pain would be his companion for life.

Midnight Moonlight

M-idnight moonlight
I-s getting even brighter; 
L-et it shine through the dark, 
D-ay fifth silent November.
R-ay from the moonlight
E-rases the loneliness; 
D-arkness has no effect, for it eliminates the fear.

C-old night's moonlight
U-nderneath the wide sky
S-hines in...

I'M a Girl

I'm a girl, that's nice
I don't deserve a price.
I'm someone that's unique,
not someone too weak.
I take a chance to yellwhatever out;
I'm not going to pout,
Cuz I know i'm proud,
to say it out loud.

Remembering the Saturday Special

hot dogs,
baked beans Saturday special
Leontyne Price sings Aida

Ma makes a box cake

steamed up kitchen windows

I twist and turn toward her 
on the little green stool
