Gobbledygook About Thanks Taking Formerly Known As Thanksgiving

Heretofore stuffing said scandalous fête
worst day of year turkeys do hate
though vegan lifestyle
sweeping culinary tables of late
though me and the missus
still omnivorous foods sate

palates sprinkled (of course
while mouths full with borscht,
and eyes wide shut)
with garbled...

She Cried Holy

It amazes me that she came to mind after some 50 years.
She lived far back across the fields, alone with not a care.
She was laughed at and talked about; some were afraid of her.

A Simple Faith - 2

I’m no scholar
I don’t know many things
I’m not so intelligent
That I can pass every test
I’m not a sage
A specialist or doctor
I don’t research all the details
Or have great thoughts 
My intellect isn’t rewarded
With trophies or...

Deimos Perplexing State of Martian Crash Test Dummy

Anthropomorphic test device to explore
amply, cheaply tricked out 
with super tramping,
albeit unsophisticated trappings 
strewn ceiling to floor
available for purchase at Dollar store

cost more than 100 pennies)
nonetheless unmanned spacecraft made
perfect landing upon alien nation...

I join them to test my endurance,
but underneath the bleachers kids smoke weed;

who will be the backbone of our Nation?

I Never Dreamed

When I was young and innocent…while life was still brand knew
as it is with children….my dreams were young and innocent too…

They were childlike and free…
And they were a little egotistical...

Clown At the Abyss-

Oh, Clown at the abyss;
We’re not laughing at you;
Not funny tis true, you're falling
This we do insist;
a comic entertainer one in a circus, you're falling
wearing a traditional costume and exaggerated makeup.
Lo! Grecian fall unsophisticated rustic;

'her Last Time'

Fuelling a need 
that lay dormant
her intro into the world of sex 
was rough and 
unsophisticated

her first time fairy tale
turned into a nightmare
it was nothing
compared to the books she's read 

that stranger scarred her

Uncover - Discover

Majestically lissome, a stripling nothing less,
slender in silhouette, a beauty in undress,
standing starkly bared, every limb exposed.
Not for an artist, but the splendour disclosed
is singularly attractive, as any you’ll see:
a natural vision of simplistic symmetry.

Engrossed,...

White Elephants

I’m sure ratepayers everywhere
Are aware of the many dangers
Of the cronyism to be found
At their local Council chambers

They build useless monuments
That will never make a buck
For vanity projects of all kinds
To feed egos run amok

Puppy Meets Her Future

She was as naïve and honest 
as he was unscrupulous.
Her sincerity resonated in direct contradiction
 to his entire clan’s diabolical ways.

Unsophisticated, unused to any form of deceit,
she fell hard for his bad boy looks and...

I Do Kiss

Beneath my mother’s watchful eye,
We had been courting for a year
And now I’m traveling all alone,
Excited with a bit of fear.

A thousand miles to the big city,
Unsophisticated country girl,
Seeking among the million faces
The one who...

Kiss and Run

Please kiss and run, my only son
Her body is on fire.

Water rises,
Whisky on the table, 
A unique type of gold in a glass,
That type of woman isn’t in your social class
Moments like these are meant...
