Long Weber Poems

consumed later at night than usual
finds me bright eyed and bushy tailed
amply lively to learn 
about an American radio 
and television personality and pioneer
Wee Willy Weber,
who prominently and popularly reigned...

Blunt deadly weapons of mass destruction
electrify, fracture, and
jeopardize Homo Sapiens
species (and entire biosphere)
continuity rent asunder

doomsday declared (nuclear winter
gallows humor spelt
with eternal snow day)
dystopian authors outflanked
nuclear fallout wreaks worst

rocky horror picture
effected upon mankind

Locked Up


Tomorrow I'll wake up
I'll stretch and look around 
Not a single bar in sight

Saudade for friends I have lost

as I get older
I lose more people
every year

Of Gooey ducks and butter clams
Hidden deep within...

"How beautiful!"  "Gorgeous!"  "So elegant!"

The audience applauds her appearance.

Awakening

She opens her mouth; all eyes...

Watch out for that ideology
Bad effects on your psychology
It bleeds into our sociology
‘Til we hate one another’s biology

Let’s make a pact
To get our facts together
Have no ideology
Whatsoever

Hitler and Stalin and Mao and Amin –
Terminating angels...
