Their impact
Summoned
From the depths of a restless wish to...

I still recall those two large probing eyes 
Framed on somewhat lean-looking oval face

In a temple of reading...

where butter flies abound,
a lot of curious critters here
are running all around.

Definitely a sales pitch, the stain is very large
Remember half the people you know are below average
You're bloody well right, you're still in charge

MIND GONE WILD
“I need somebody to love”
“My first name is somebody”

In warm embrace or cool frappe,

Married into esteem, wet blood of rubies
Eighty one ladybugs jitter over decoletage
Prince winks at my wonderment, approving

Tired  2 0r 2 Tired



There’s another hole
My right foot has sympathetically
Decided to leach me out of

Always an interesting and loyal wife

The train to Boston goes clonkity dong, clonkity ding,
and ever the handy hack Gershwin takes up
the rhythm and makes it sing.
Rhapsodic rhapsodies in jazz mode
stomp among the carriage silverware and glasses,
makes them tink, jitter and...

Touch wood Baby! wish you a happy new year,
Blowing cheerful cacophony in your ear.

Let us clear from your mind, the infertile fear.

In every life, a storm arises
along with sad and glad surprises.
Whether or not of our making,

This energy is plying and thought is rusting.
Stitches of reason lack a common thread
