Turning the maxim familiarity breeds contempt on it's head

Turning the maxim familiarity breeds contempt on it's head...
not just in time for Valentine's Day
but the remaining days of our lives
as the world turns
on all our children
the young and restless
now grown to womanhood

Here we are fans this fine summer day,
to watch Trash Can Cats, versus Downtown Stray.
The field is grand in this deep wooded glen,
pitchers are warming up in the bull pen.

Pitching for the Cats is Crazy...

As an easy pushover and soft touch lamenting my demise

As an easy pushover and soft touch lamenting my demise
Vultures swooped overhead
and preyed on my vulnerabilities
forcing me to carrion camping
as fine young cannibals
sharpened their knives
and licked their lips
while eyeing me as their naked lunch
bound and...

Signs of Courage

As I strolled through the street one day,
The oddest sight caught my eyes,
A man, only wearing rags,
But very wise,
Spoke words of knowledge, inspiration and advice,
How to care, how to share,
And just how to be nice,
To...

With Apologies To Joyce Kilmer

?I thought that I would never see
Another macho man like me.
Ex-green Beret and Airborne Ranger,
Who never shirked in face of danger.	
But that ancient myth was soon dissolved,
When my wife asked me to get involved,
And accompany...

Ten Hut

12/20/21


Ten hut!
Can't let up
Even though, it can get messed up
Really F'd up
Do not get fed up
Keep your head up
Stay sharp, don't get set up
Careful where a disagreement ends up
Heads up!
Many fast to wet up
From the...

A Little List

With apologies to Sir W.S. Gilbert

As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list--I've got a little list.
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would...

In twenty three, we waved goodbye to much celebrity
But in the clouds the welcome party takes them three by three

Senses

3/28/21


Sanitized a lot of messes with Lysol
Saw it all through my eyeballs
By being logical during daytime or nightfall

Did no good to dawdle
Helped to be thoughtful
Experienced the pleasant and the awful
Didn't always benefit one side or...

(Is this microphone turned on? Testing one two, Poe was a dip, Poe was a dip, testing.)

Once upon a daydream, faintly
whilst I watched the boob tube, quaintly

The Backburn

“The Backburn”



Sands slip through 
a shrinking tide
chair's facing away
from the Sun
back turned 
on the backburn
facing the past 

you are still here
you are still here

back turned
on the backburn
ocean slides 
hypnotic undertow
nipping at your toes
you’re speaking to...

It's Gonna Happen, Might As Well Have a Laugh

Speculations abound, on the news and Internet.
Doomsday prophecies, when the planets alignments set.
But I have my theories, that I will share with you,
might as well accept it, there's nothing you can do.
Twenty-twelve is coming, that...

I loved you, 
but why 
did we break up? 
I never knew the reason. 

you were my sunshine, 
my only sunshine,

Ben & Bess

Ben,our springer,brown & white
Was our teen-daughter's delight;
Bred by the famous Shand-Kydd
Causing us to part with fifty quid.

He soon grew,chewing lino & chairs
Forever racing up our stairs;
We'd no idea what he would become
This stress-filled harum-scarum.

A Day In America West

Buckaroos wave in the wagons into a corral, circle of
Conestoga wagons mixed with covered wagons 100 count,
Next to the butte, a springer delivers calf alive; compadres cheer wahoo!
Exuberance looking at large remuda, choosing each a...

Winter Wonderland

WINTER WONDERLAND

The snowmen line the silent street at night.
Their bright smiles gleam with frozen teeth of stone.
Until the crackle of a bunny’s light —
its paws so sweetly greet the dark alone.
His fluffy fur, does mimic,...
