Pi - Inspired By the Movie
THREE year olds know about circles. They play
ring around the rosy and here we go round
the mulberry bush. And if one should say
that in reality nowhere is found
a perfect circle, they either don’t hear
or...

A Titch More of Tom's Torturously Terrrible Tidbits
I went to buy an R.V.
They said all I could afford was a Lose-a Beggo.
I bought a pair of alligator shoes.
But then I started wandering off into swamps.
Finally, I had to toss them, they were
really...

There Ain'T No Cure
There ain't no cure for me
There ain't no cure for anyone
There ain't no cure
for a society
based on
aesthetics
There ain't no cure
for a poem
that doesn't spill onto the page
There ain't no cure
for the subconscious
image conscious
We take common...

Derecho of 2020
The first text warning that the approaching storm
Is nothing like we’ve ever experienced before
Is dismissed as it will surely lose steam
Before it reaches us,
Two hundred miles to the east.
Soon more texts, closer to home,...

Transcendental Highway
Traveling the
transcendental highway
early in the morning,
simply an extension
of my daily yoga.
The great semis zip by
in both directions,
like elephants on roller skates
in the first light,
only a flat tire away
from disaster.
Like a zen master I travel
with...

Everyone Did Not Have a Tv Or a Car
When I was your age I walked sixty two miles to school and back
Because our horse was dead, or given only to my brothers.
We did not get to wear pants, even if our legs were...

They Fall Today, Still

The Dive
Experiment, the worth of kings,
no bonafide adventuring
not impinge, glory, noticing,
the trial of "over" ~ SING, BUT SING!
And over, 'til the mode be right,
that last decision, still up tight.
I've felt it oft, all nerves on edge,

How a Perfunctory Poet Punctuates a Piece
A period here. a question mark there?
A handful of commas,,,tossed in the air
To fall all willy-nilly but he doesn't care.
Then he closes his eyes so he never sees,
And does it again with apostrophe's.
Next colons: and...

France Took the Crown
France beat Argentina four to three

Eclipse and Mourning Evening
-
Soon
the moon is black,
she is in mourning of the evening
Over the garden’s stones
Shadows are getting longer
from tomorrow
The confusion of the sky
The seedling of comets
The pulse of the planets
Will do nothing with the future
Just the scent...

Find Fun From Four
Find fun from four,
Starting with four-wheeler;
A vehicle like fancy car
Comforts the mind of the driver.
The Fantastic Four film
Fills your heart with excitement;
Superheroes emerge victorious
Because of their noble intent....

Bridge requires a square table
With a player on each side.
Exchange your greenback dollars
For slot machine quarters to provide.
A basketball team that hoops it up well
May make March Madness semis for a spell.

Freeway Accidents Are Annoying
so annoying
when a wreck happens
on the interstate
I always watch the semis
When they vie for the fast lane
I do too
Using their highway prowess
Except this time two were wrong
They led me into a lane that did not...
