Long Off base Poems

I don't know how it started

But it's an annual event

But I don't think that an egg hunt

Is the best way to present

The story of our saviour

Chocolate eggs you go and find

I don't think that's the...

I could be way off base, but I think that ‘Control’
and ‘Graced Giving’ are opposites, poles that can’t meet
in a space with dimensions, where sanity floats
and integrity lives (for one can’t buy a gift!)
‘Good Samaritan’s...

Let me tell you a true story.
Hopefully to show God’s power and His glory.
Two army buddies, friends that went A.W.O.L.
Absent without leave a military crime, a foul.

Two young men scared in Saigon, not more than...

THE  PLIGHT
I never cease to ponder at the turmoil in my life 
Though I feel my soul is peaceful it is manifest in strife 
While the strife is all internal 'neath a self content...

A family of nine sisters, none named the way the names could have fit.
They started out with three flowers, and thought it wise to continue it. 
Our last name so plain, Daddy argued. Daisy, Fern...

I know you say that there’s bodies
across the Russian land,
outside of abandoned work camps,
where countless souls were damned,
and yes, there’s twenty million gone
by those who claimed our name,
and radiation splashed about,
I know that seems insane,
but...

Shh! Scientists can't find us, only natives know
Sauropods survived when dinosaurs went extinct
Cameroon people have spotted us many times
Please help us hide!  Our species' future's on the brink!

Though the necks
sighting of Ichabod Crane
humungous horror
helplessly harassing,
hellish hyena howling,
hideously hounding,
headless Halloween
hair raising happening,

regarding haunting
horseman spectre,
not due to arrive
(in gremlin, golem, and
goblin crawling theaters
everywhere in outer limits
of twilight zone),
come October thirty first

two thousand, and nineteen

Farewell George
No warm wishes here
Gone is your reign of feeding on fear
No more incompetent good 'ol boy antics
So long to your off-base far-right fanatics
Actually... unfortunately...they're still here
But gone is your non-sensical ethics to cheer
Time now...

HARVEY WALL-BANGERS


Having a good time drinking Harvey Wall-bangers
Always watching out on how much I drink
Reaching into an unknown realm of alcohol
Very tempting this drink can be to one and all
Enlivening me to unknown territory can...

Here’s the thing
Peer pressure, isolation and laughter
Doesn’t magically make wrong right
Or change a lie into truth
Just because so many
Who are uninformed believe
Doesn’t turn fiction into fact
Rewriting history doesn’t make it true
No matter how many times...

Betcha can't guess what this is
Don't cheat and look down below
A unique and funky candy dish?
Or an ash tray, do you think you know?

Looks like a prize from a midway
Something to hang on your wall

About Trump Could Hardly Wait

About Trump we could hardly wait;
We had heard about him as of late;
A procraster;
Prefers disaster;
Said his big mouth should suffocate.

Over ten again.

Eve T.M.M. is a sweet Canadian gal
A product of the wild wild west
Living between Edmonton and Calgary
Imagine as a cowgirl she's dressed

Riding frisky stallions and lassooing steers
Roundup time on Circle M Ranch
With the majestic Rockies...

The rumbling of thunder
From some bowlers in the sky
Makes me shudder, gape and wonder
Why we tell our kids that lie.

Does it reassure them, thinking
All that noise is just a game?
Or are they aware we’re winking,
Making...

why did we meet?
not yesterday,not tomorrow,but now?
now,in the very moment
we were about to settle our lives?
Were we so wrong
or way off base
for us to meet today?
to see that life can be
so wonderfull within...
deep in my...

The Wonderful Grace

	

One is on a scheduled pace
While the other wanders off in space 
Organized is one that’s faced
With all the clutter caused in haste	

One that’s neat we’ll call her Grace
The other that’s not we’ll...

A toddler in a stroller passed
And, looking at her face,
It seemed to me that she was
Merely staring into space.

Which made me wonder – could it be
She’d nothing on her mind?
If not, and I could read...

`There’s always that one 
Who’s a wee bit different
The one who marches 
to a different drum

There’s always that person
Who seems indifferent
Not to all things in common
but is always uncommon in some

There’s always that dear one

The weatherman predicted
That today would reach a high
Of eighty-five degrees; I never
Thought that he would lie.

I didn’t take a jacket and
My sockless feet are bare.
I’m shivering and I would bet
He doesn’t even care.

He’s sitting in...
