Long Tuckered out Poems

Invisibly tortured courtesy existential nihilism

Then dash through doors to fun pursue,
To basketballs...

On being emotionally bankrupt

Sentient beings distraught

ever since we moved...

Meanwhile, Mrs. Pappadopoulos
has circled back and plops down
on Fred's front porch, all tuckered out
 
So Fred cheerfully pulls up a chair
and together they sit and stare
openly ogling, gawking, gaping

it's not considered staring
if...

Even has bath toys that bubble...

A Christmas celebration,
With the family gathered near,
A ham in the oven,
The boys with a cup of cheer.

Playing hide and seek,
Trying not to be found.

A festive celebration,
Laughter...

Then you would be wrong
And it's not crazy words
In some Christmassy song

Don't anybody laugh
For these...
