Bunch of limericks and other funny tricks I
"Okay, tell me, who's gonna be next?"
said the writer of the too-long text.
"No, please, not me," said the lean noun.
"Cut that fat verb there, two lines down."
And they all watched with their faces vexed.

This Is Feminist Us
It's peaceful here in my backyard.
The crows sound happy
with warm October sunlight.
I just read about a deadly gathering in Las Vegas.
Absence of sun-drenched peace.
Inconvenient this time of lost loss.
Death is always inconvenient,
even when invited.
A veteran,

Gateway Town
Gateway town, Mississippi and Missouri river flooding confluence,
with its celebration of manifest destiny, its looming, iconic archway.
Stainless westward marker, its culture flowed southward for influence
within the lawn-jockey, pink flamingo neighborhoods of moral decay.
T.S, Eliot,...

Heartache Makes Headlines
Periodically writing random thoughts on a piece of paper is my secret escape.
Left for healing and mending. Right for healing and mending.
Painful, nonetheless. Don't be ashamed.
I am the scrawler of my racing...

Ku Kops Klan

We went out that night and stayed out too late -- unusual for folks our age....

Danger Island Dumb-Dumbs
We knaves had orders both explicit and dumb:
Scare the blazes out of a management bum.
Thunderstorm weather rocked wide Prince William Sound,
Feisty gales pouring rain all around.
My partner and I took our overseer
In a tiny smoker...

Curious Natures
In a more weak world the most aggressive advantages
don't always deal in what is referred to as "fair consequence."
Being an empire built of sharks, snakes, wolves, and rats-the most basic of beasts-

Plea
Don't be heard
Hide in darkness
Screaming within
Tears they run
Run
Run
End nearing
Break is pending
Storm ominously waiting
Body convulsing
Not to be heard
Not to be found
Only in darkness
They become seen
The cracks that in light
Unseen by open eye
But when all becomes...

A Shade From the Past
Just as days long ago, when decorum resolved,
before composure, and poise,.. were corsages, unknown
Where propriety mattered, and was favored as gold,
high society, has gathered to flavor their tea

Body Image Blues
I've had thunder thighs and cankles,
For a portion of my life.
Boobs the size of melons,
Causing me such strife.
I would puff like a steam train
On the slightest little walk.
And shove junk food in my mighty gob,...

Music by Rickard Linde..
I’ve crossed a collapsed bridge
I sleepwalk the landmine fields
I hold the keys to toppled doors
I’m told by the ceaseless winds
My world turned into dust
A cast of rust numb to pain

The Growing Years
Never knew my Dad when I was a lad,
Never knew what it was like,
to go for a walk, and hold his hand.
My, if I did, that would be grand.
My early years are in the mist...

The War You Wage
Your feelings about me are
Visions clouded by memories of your past
Lovers and haters and all things greater
You remain guarded
And dictated by fear
Keeping me near…enough
But not too close
The war you fight is with yourself, not...

Waiting
Tired fingers drummed on bound leather,
white knuckled mountains held a fire post
high, giving away his position to everyone
that drove by. A radio hums nervously,
keeping pace with the sore jointed thrumming…
but just barely. Heavy blankets...

Spring Valley
Sitting at glen’s edge,
pining the loss of summer
and idyllic rendezvous -
the noticeable disappearance
of luscious granny smiths
we cut in halves
and passionately rubbed
between a quartet
of burning thighs
to chill the desire -
after the writhing ceased.
Perhaps we spoke in...

So much has changed
Looking searching high and low but it slipped away
Why can't I find it
Is it under the witness protection listed under a different name
I remember dreaming at night about how things would...
