Clyde Lied!
by Michael R. Burch

who bragged of his prowess, but lied.

The Board
by Michael R. Burch

Accessible rhyme is never good.

with reprimands of Dr. Seuss.

and found two slugs mating in a bucket

A point whereby this vodka won’t help anymore
Sleeping pills won’t help anymore
I can’t fight anymore
Can’t start any war.

I can’t...

3:01

Its midnight,
And it’s settling in.
I’ve been home
Just a few hours.
Comfortable in my home,
At ease with my hobbies.

But then its gone.
Like it was never even there.
And...

food for man and beast
nuggets of forested treasure,

fruited missiles to ground:

thy treasure feeds life itself

Sweet Little Marigold


She was a dairymaid, oh so sweet;
many a year ago.
Her figure was trim, her hair was neat,
with ringlets tied up in a bow.
And many a farmer would leave his plough,
the turkeys and chickens, and even...

Playing With Fire
