Only When Yours Truly Busies Himself

Only when yours truly busies himself...

Feigning to emulate NON GMO
garden variety English major oh just so
ho-hum, this ousted son and cingular bro
biological byproduct of papa's yoyo

after mama taut Peppy how to grow
big and become vein, her issuing blow
by blow stroke, thence pecker
imitated fountainhead

unleashing at apropos
time outburst analogous when an arrow
loosed from archer's bow
shooting off about hip height mo'

than bajillion microscopic
one celled lil longfellow
(Oh Henry...! wad art thou doing?)
just hmm... giving mutual sin O

Job whelp... subsequently
little squirt begot
sole son this all because sticky clot
hit bullseye right on the dot

nope, no where near size of ergot
spore, yet radiating
burning temperature more hot than...,
liquified gold prior

bitta bing bitta bang forged into ingot,
now just little more about fertilized
ova, I wanna jot
potential pluperfect parasite (me)

acquired, cultivated, fashioned...
one after another deft bon mot
while in utero until umbilical cord
severed than christened newborn tot.

Now fast forward blaw blaw blaw
when I began to clamor and claw
nope, cuz I ne'er learned how to draw,
the least significant genetic flaw,
cue laugh track and prerecorded guffaw
similar to popular nineteen
seventies television hee haw

laughter muted upon meeting
battle axe mother in law
another story... genre mccaw braw,
she excelled spewing vitriol out her maw,
thence I slowly must heard,
mixed metaphors and mastered...pshaw

modesty keeps me from bragging
yea - boot as a non sequitur
non secretor, yukon call me
the word wrangler outlaw
lo never cussing out anybody,
I can more easily whip out pistol

if captive audience
critiques mein arcane saw
jeering (matt speak feeble attempt
at wordplay - i.e. soldiering)
receiving affirmative nod
courtesy none other
than quick draw mcgraw

now ye butter listen (er... read) up
and don't blather and beast not shtupp
to conquer, when ya hear bit ching pup
that maybe be yipping faux ruse
to empty pocket inner empty cup.


Premium Member Elemental Answers To Being

Beside Every Iridescent Node Grows
Beauty, Eyeing, Instigating, Nodding Gracefully.
Bounty Energizes Inundating Nascent Growth.
Brilliant Emerald Ignites Newborn Grains.

Bathers Each In Nuance Gather.
Beyond Eternity, Infinite Night Gropes. 

Beside Emerging Isotopes Nonchalantly Grasping 
Bottle-necked Entities In Nature’s Great 
Beneficence Engages Ideology's Non-sequitur
	Givers.

Bare endings. Idols Neglected Gape.
Basking Ecclesiastic Idiosyncrasies Nascent Glow.

Because Each Idol Names Great
Beauty. Effigies, Itinerant Namesakes, Grin.
Beside Each, I Narcissus' Grow.

Rooms 
            by Odin Roark

How prescient that first room
The one where under the bed
Proved private the light
Where flashlight and toy soldier
Became all that was needed

Came

The room with desk
Where locked door
Gave entrance to video games
While parents assumed study

Came

SATs where drawn curtains
No boom box
Only silence
And the study focus
Made the room

Came

The dorm room
With beer-can-crushing-to-the-head roommate
Making for final exam hell
Where stolen passions
With sorority queen fantasy
Made eating
A non sequitur 

Came

The office walls
The room for fortune
Made eventually corrupt
With drawn curtains

Came

Marriage’s bed-room
That place where all became prescient again
Where a child would validate a wife’s existence
While with loving acceptance
A husband’s duty would be carried out

Came…

Came…

The rooms never stop
Some their final architecture
That of nursing home green
Other’s of palm-frond-shack freedom
Still others…
Soho 3-story condo prison

Rooms 

Always unknown
Until they’re not

Forever a four-wall measure
The capsule
The coffin
Chosen destiny
One way
Or another

Buzzfeeding Sustenance Eating Drinking Beyond Point of Satiation

Buzzfeeding sustenance (eating/drinking) beyond point of satiation

Bloated swollen cheeks
analogous to first Chinese Brother,
who swallowed the sea,
now non sequitur 
off beaten track i.e.
less apropos re: guarding
par for race course as if

ace driver won Grand Prix
latter referencing international
horse race for three-year-olds,
founded in eighteen sixty three
931 + 932 = above number
satisfying ghost of Fibonacci.

Original idea predicated whereby
all Americans heartily feast
(stuff themselves to the gills)
salivating cornucopia dime
a dozen lonely people
bemoaning holiday re:
traditional Thanksgiving time,
celebrating joie de vivre chime

wine glasses clink full house,
where ushers pantomime
proffer gobbledygook and
motion rapidly hungry guests
toward smorgasboard prime
tables for gluttonous
to commit punishing crime.

Tentative arrangement made,
whereby oldest sister, and husband,
(who live a jaunt away from Maple Shade
more precisely Woodbury New Jersey)
would swing by Schwenksville

comprising one car motorcade,
thence to shuttle 31.5 miles southeast
our mutual (of Omaha) friend,
I met when counted orbitz
during late 30/early thirtieth decade.

Offer to drive out of their way
presented, since our 2009
Hyundai Sonata did betray
accountability, dependability...
reliability oy vey
woolworth no more than

couple/few Benjamins
yet real challenge constitutes
yours truly, née
theme underlying mein
kampf pennilessness pray
I did (despite being orthodox

atheist) to no avail
relying upon social security
regarding disability (mine) Mayday
forthrightly, feebly, faintly...
calling before men
donned with white coats

came to take me away
to the happy home with trees
and flowers and chirping birds
and basket weavers who sit,
smile, twiddle their thumbs and toes.

Communication break down 
compromised eating humble pie 
regarding this ole man
upended above mentioned plan

whereby attending 
hosted by: Gail la Dorfman 
afforded rubber express
thus with Forrest Gump I ran
all the way across 
Ocean thru to Japan.

"FAKE" markedly questionable legatees quite
suitable asper The Art Of The Deal during

Incommodious Em Bare Ass Sing Accident

While out and about
an unexpected over bare ring bout
to defecate arose,
     where sphincter asserted clout
and would excrete
     despite without doubt...

and blast immense solid waste byproduct

thus a marathon race against time
found immediate readiness to pull off roadside
     to access make shift water closet
     generating image firmly in pooping mode

     grabbing hold of a tree trunk
     (a mini rocky horror picture show, -
     this analogy included for no particular reason

     other than as a non-sequitur)
     and also to convey, how I tried
     to allay distractions
     while painful contractions flowed
(perhaps approximating woman

     on verge of giving birth)
but...no matter, aye could envision,

Premium Member Zigzagging

The mind flits left to right
Like a moth to the light
Forward and back seem so simple
Appearing as immutable principle
Doubt rears its ugly head
Then we try the opposite instead

Thinking stuck in the primal abyss
Leaping out to a false premise
Landing on a non sequitur
Sillogisms flying past in a blur
The quid pro quo one can't deny
Shows logic that we all decry
Aristotle would be exasperated
While the duplicitous are vindicated

Go through two doors at the same time
Prove it's not shorter to use a straight line
Flighty creatures that we are
When we wish upon a star
Twin deceivers are zig and zag
Truth can evade like boast and brag

Some thinkers think to bend not break
Especially with crucial issues at stake
Forever we're swerving to get so far
And that's the truth of how we are
Mostly unsure of what we know
Off zigzagging we blithely go

Premium Member periods

I’m drinking a martini
communing with my phone.
I’m in a bad mood
and clearly, I want to be alone.

Peter (my bf) and I came to this fine restaurant on purpose
- when I’m surly, I seek luxury

The deep warm hues of mahogany,
the chandelier facets of Baccarat glassware, 
- that turn a martini into a galaxy of glitter -
the whispered, opulent luster of Christofle silver, 
and the high-reflective white of 100% Irish linen
sooth me - we’re here about every 28 days.

The cocktail and the atmosphere are starting to work.
Martinis are high gravity and I’m starting to feel the spin.
You can't drown demons with alcohol, they can swim,
but you CAN seek a little anosognosia.

A stock, 30-ish man, thick wavy hair, open collar
and a suit stuffed with overconfidence 
is suddenly at my table, lavishing me with 
questionable, over-reaching compliments.

Do I appear wanting of some calculated, 
and algorithmic pickup line?

Am I just available for anybody?
I respect the hustle, 
but my patience is at absolute zero
I can’t just give him an eye roll
I have to say something.

I want to say, “stop [you know] bothering me.”
but I pour on the impulse control.

“I have a boyfriend,” I say,
it’s the simplest sentence I can spare
and after a moment, it works and he leaves.

Seconds later Peter returns
he’d stepped outside for a phone call. 
“How YOU DOin’?” he asked in a fake accent.
I shrug, he knows my climate. 
I don’t have to pretend anything with Peter.

“Where are we on the menu?” He tacks.

I answer in the non-sequitur, 
“I miss Yale’s creole fish sandwiches. 
- I was mad about them.”

Peter updoged, “Apple spice ring cakes.” 
(a seasonal Yale dining hall favorite)
and we say ‘mmmmm’ in unison.

Songs for this:
A Change Will Do You Good by Sheryl Crow
WAP (Lounge Version) by Richard Cheese [E] [E] [E]

About the song WAP (above) - If you listen to RAP music, 
you know the lyrics are explicit (direct and funny) trash.
WAP takes typical rap lyrics and puts them in lounge singer 
format - where they stand out hilariously.

Nostalgia For Yesteryear of Boyhood

(alternately titled: whipping and pommel ling 
das soar addle brain) 

My most recent deuce score

Premium Member God Style

God starts to pour words into the mind
Which is the start of inspiration, I find
And in the mix things start to grind
The intentions, inspiration in our mind's God-lined
And the turning into all that's combined

Then God pours into the batter freewill
Every nuance, introspection, subtlety and thrill
All whisked together, the grist for the mill
And it all mixes rapidly and yet still
There's no machinery, no A.I. to ink out our quill

[Non sequitur]
So what happened to all the notebooks
The fragments and familiar phrases, lines and hooks?
And why wasn't credit given when someone overlooks
Where the black and white is found? not in babbling brooks
But in obscurity you'll find hiding the crooks
