From The Workshop Collection: Canary And Her Gold Mind

Sitting here like an expendable bill
With no Jill
Wanting to climb the hill
Where I will
Be able to fill
My bucket from the mill...

That night I went to eat
With my guy you see.
After that made it home
But still felt lonely

To a big grand ball
Do I go? Do I tell?
For the first time sneak real...

Billionaires hunker down in their Queenstown bunker lairs

Spanked by the rank

The Ballad of Daphne and Jack, the Sequel
Gather 'round me, my dears,
I'll continue the tale
Of a princess and her pirate lover.
Of her crown unencumbered,
They pillaged and plundered
As they wandered the seven seas over.
Crimes maritime were elating
And invigorating
'til Jack noticed a bulge in...

Dining Without
While ambling down the boulevard,
I spied a swanky canopy.
As member of the avant-garde,
The classy bistro suited me.
When greeted by the maitre'd,
I nonchalantly said, "Just one."
He smiled and nodded graciously.
My gourmand venture had begun.
As soon as...

Inevitability of a celebrity on every terrace at the tennis..

The Dignified Doorman
In the thirties when fish factories in my town closed, the sardines

Perhaps collective memory told them not to go near the...

Chicago Spring
After the dreary, dismal cold days of winter,
Bogged down by mounds of snow,
Chicago, the indomitable city,
Dogged by ears-flapping, bone-chilling winds,
Emerges like a blooming flower
Fostering liveliness, sensuality,
Gaiety and grandiose funfair.
Hot, sizzling and sassy summer...

A Scholar Romance Ii
Males have always made it easy for me to veto
either by words or actions or both.

Tree After Life
Mother nature’s trees shudder in the breeze,
Clothed in ashened sky,bearing angry eye.
The winds conversation with birds to flock,
Branches of two trees interlock.
Angry eye is sporting black,
The fight for supremacy notoriously back.
Rabbits and squirrels retreat with...

The Closest Comparison
A cherub with a rosy face
and plenty of curly hair
that the breeze loved to lull,
more than the daises so fair;
and that was the closest comparison...
to the beautiful child he once was!
The youngest dreamer ever to...

A homeless woman squatted on the pavement
Empty bottle of mineral water by her side.

Of poverty makes me ashamed as I ride,
The swanky metro. Brooding… get off at my...

Feast of Chaos
The undertaker prepped him voguishly
Like there was a party six feet below
The earth where anosmic maggots
Were tamed by steep fragrance
He is dead, he is dead
Of what use is a tinseling treasure
To the naively rich sands?

Of Infinity
On the exquisite wings of fated infinity.
We move with subtle elegance and fluidity.
To sail into odd space on a vessel of silence.
It is clearly the domain of the swanky credence.

Banana once again
What sold was for millions as art so grand,
Was bought for a few cents at a fruit stand--
A fancy mall nor mart,
Nor place of art apart,
Nor was banana taped with swanky band.
But a joke so...
