Long Milkshakes Poems

The charade of porn
hostages of the blackmarket

but it’s the same news on a broken record,
broken record horrors.

Now the clock— It’s snickering, a thief,...

Superficial Smiles by Shane Cogan

A trapped house can be worse than a prison
Cell doors open daily, a sealed house door never

He passed it every day
He passed it on the way to school
And on his way home again

He knew the man who worked in there

Machines with madmen groaning above me at 10 thousand feet,
Grumbling and growling like maniac sky monsters slurping on bloody prey,
Those steel dragons of yore spewing fire and corpses into the excesses,
Like Rodan...

In the age of Aquarius
Envisioning the best from the
Land of opportunity where it’s been said
Streets are paved in gold

I fell into my morning bed
the tears turned my sheets blue
the bed couldn’t stand the quake
my sister made a quick streak
for my mom…she was the balm

i hurt all over…it was over
had it even started?
infatuation indistinguishable...

Some times are “ups” but mostly “Down’s” 

This rhyme I clutch to...

Waking up five in the morning,
and looking the dawn's sun rise,
to start the day with a yawn and strech.
Smell the morning dew,

filled with tablots of lives more intresting...

Plus, two chocolate milkshakes
with vanilla latte eyes

We’re celebrating today,

Miserably one bright sunny morning
I was happy to see rain was pouring
That day I went to a zoo in the sky
Saw elephants fly, and hyenas cry.

Zebras looked awesome, red, amber and green
That was their stripes,...

head tucked under wing
ducks and geese
doing the same...
