Long Skimp Poems

The summer of 2000
stuck in my mind for eternity
A sight that I'll always love to see.

There was a lot of bad
very little good and 
I remember the bad 
way more than I should

While bad things...

My blimp is on the fritz again
The hovercraft just popped
I surely cannot take the car
That’s jacked up in the shop

The bus won’t come out to my house
There’s no train tracks nearby
But I must make it...

Joan
She sits in the gloom of her freezing cold room
A room she can’t heat anymore
Her larder is bare but she never goes there
For she doesn’t eat anymore

Her late husband’s medal lies there by her chair
How...

We pray good times will come again,
As we sit and beg for rain,
We pray good times will soon draw nigh
As we dry the tears we cry,
And watch our livestock die.

I am tired of singing the...

There is a little town deep down south from which I came. 
There you will find beauty from the beach, beyond are waves that crash into the 
sand and hills that line the shore. Each...

Down in hell, that stronghold of sin.
strange things stir, but let me begin.
I'll get to the point. Some details I'll skimp.
I tell the tale of a mischievous imp.
Of two imps in fact, to be more...

Their lives begin, that special day
Your hardest job, is on the way.
Walking and pacing, all night long
Knowing that one day, they’ll be strong.

Watching them crawl, then walk and run
Treasure each moment, share their fun.
They grow...

I suppose you think it's a gooseberry patch to which I allude.
Well, in a sense it is, but this has to do with scrumptious food!
'Tis a diner named The Gooseberry Patch, down the road a...

if i could make a real black man
i'd bake him like a cake
i'd mix him up and pour him out

I'm just a common workin' man and have been all my life,
Laborin' eight hours a day to support my kids and wife.
Tryin' to do my honest best to make desperate ends meet,
Makin' sure my clan...

Heaven knows why you wish to hear anger and misdirected blame
tossed toward you on the ether by unknown souls, what a shame ..
You are misguided, mistaken, a mischievous little maudlin imp 
to encourage such bad...

Recipe For My Poetry:

2 tbsps of too much time on one’s hands
As many cups of McDonald’s coffee you wish
So easy! No pots and no pans…
A generous pinch of ego

Im Alive

 

Every now and then you get that buzz of awareness
That makes you feel alive
That makes you know that there still could be
That special person out there.

That butterfly’s in the stomach feeling
That hot and...

Acting weirdly normal when he was in a happy mood

He’d been on a heavy diet and was eating lots of jumbo shrimp
They were disgustingly delicious with...

Everybody deserves a day off,
even corporate pimps
Let somebody else watch the Madison Avenue whores
advertise their seductive cable street wares
Conscript the company pimp wannabe intern simps
Then issue frequent frequency warnings
to the parents,
telling them to shield the...

sounds wonderful
somewhat
delighting
something special
something inviting
can I say incredible
or maybe exciting
trying to say
can I spend sometime with you


you make e want to smile
expecally when we're dancing
across the room
I notice your style
that's way I've been
second glancing
kinda weird

Just an ol' Tom Cat
dirty orange in color,
Rummaging like a rat
through filth and squalor

Painfully moving with an obvious limp
and a single eye from which to glimpse.
Orange cat advanced with a hesitant skimp;
so sorrowful a cat...

Each weight increase signals defeat
and never fails to leave you blue.
For, when you strive to stay petite
each pound is repulsive to you.

You stare in the mirror of truth
scrutinizing each ounce of fat.
And seeking the girl...

Surfing on West Coast Is Best

He was such a shrimp
Known by others as a wimp
On things liked to skimp.

He had saved so much
With reality lost touch
Started dating Dutch.

Nothing was his treat
Money never did deplete
Saving seemed...

A city sight I sometimes spy
Floats, barely moving, in the sky.
It seems cartoonish in its shape
And causes everyone to gape.

It circles slowly, like a shark,
To locate what it’s meant to mark:
A football game or tennis...

holding back my emotions, seeing past the commotion
reaching out for support, this is truly my last resort
no hands held out to help me, this just...

they pop like a fast moving pill,

I am flopped on top of a junk food bill,

and running with a skunk who tells me to take in my fill-

like leading um' on...
