Long Hissy fit Poems

Once again it’s Saturday; the day when footy reigns supreme.
The Dogs are up against the Cats, the premier favoured team,
but I’ve got no doubts the mighty Dogs will surely cope with that.
I couldn’t think of...

an immediate process to shake out matted down hairs 
follows...

It's a freaking trip-thinking back to "way back when"
And realizing just how fast time truly does fly,
Year by year, seems to pass faster and faster
Friends you used to have back then
Back when, you too, were...

Sometimes I think
My computer is plotting against me
And only me!
Trying deliberately to drive me mad.

My computer knows
When I am busy,

And crashes constantly.
It loses data...

The next this year makes three.
By the time they find a substitute,
Slovenes will be at sea.

AUKN boss of bosses,
As every week, balances grew bleak:
He weighed merits and...

but no one was stirred enough to even lift a fist.
Patriots and paupers alike saw no such enemy on their list.
They were surprised that someone ascended from the abyss.

They...

Nothing more intimate than sleep
wake before dawn, go downtown
prepare for tomorrow, come home from work late.

Most cities prosper undisturbed
sleeping peacefully
while the tide goes out.

Are we asleep or are we dancing,
surrounded by buildings,
a primitive fertility dance...

Some wanted to be tigers.  The angels talked a few out of it,
Two were led away, because they had a ridiculously silly hissy fit.
Six were given tiger-status, and sent to an Indian village.

I hoped...

The cold and drafty dark castle nights,
eating boars head like its going out of style,

God forbid if you had a yellow streak,

Women wearing long gowns which were warm,
except for their...

The snowman takes a holiday 
to Florida, he decided to go,

Can you see my VPL through this dress?
Hold on till I look out the window.
What you looking at.
I’m searching for the spaceship.

Hey, you’re the one speaking Klingon.
Okay dummy, can...

I'll be gone this time tomorrow
I’ll catch a freight at dawn.
One goes east, another goes west

Lookin' for a future -
Got a lot of knots on...

Cantankerous cancers found my blood letting from the slit, 
Is it avarice of me to desire the love begetting of Lazarus?
Enjoying life cadaverous like forgetting the want to live, 
Is it glamorous for me to...

I'll be gone this time tomorrow
I’ll catch a freight at dawn.
One goes east, another goes west

Lookin' for a future -
Got a lot...

I'm not worthless,
I know my worth
and I'm not worth less.
I'm an addict,
not addicted.
I may be a b!#@h,
but I'm not stuck in insanity anymore.
I know that in my core.
Worthless Addict B!#@h is what you called me,

He toasted all my thoughts with a golden glass...

Comes the first day of spring
and everything is in bloom,
while the bugs start
invading way too soon,

And while living down south
were always making hand motions,
to ward off the flying insects
that give us grievous emotions,

Outdoor eating can...

Doggone Cat 


Domestication’s dormancy- be damned
I’d choose to go outside – not in this sand

destiny demands I climb the curtain

He lies there floppy eared –...

She had gone to the roof, and Horned Owl was sitting in her seat.
