NOBEL PRIZE WINNER?
Nasal, sand paper gritty voice.
Why did he win the poetry Nobel?
“The answer my friend” may be
“blowin’ in the wind.”
What were the Swedes thinking
when they voted, what were they on?.
Probably sat around
saying
“everybody must get stoned.”
Some probably opposed the vote
How could it be unanimous?
The yeas said “don’t stand in the
doorway, don’t block up the hall.”
The chair tried to contact this
great man of counterculture
poetry. No response. The notice
on his website taken down.
Surly, snarling, reclusive.
His thought might have been
“Go away from my window……
I’m not the one you need.”
Will he come to Stockholm?
Will he stay hidden?
Perhaps we should ask
Quinn the mighty Eskimo.
In Niagara Falls was born Carol LoTempio.
Her new name “April Stevens” was the one we would know.
She has a sweet and sultry voice that sounds keen.
April first sang at the age of fifteen.
With the recording “I’m In Love Again", her career had begun.
This Cole Porter song was a hit in 1951.
April’s next record “Teach Me Tiger” had a bit of a rough go.
Many stations refused to play it on the radio.
In 1963, she joined her brother Nino Tempo.
“Deep Purple” became a hit everybody would know.
That was a song that went all the way to number one.
“Whispering” proved that their careers were not done.
They hit the charts one more time with “All Strung Out”.
That was another hit song without any doubt.
This brother and sister act gained great popularity.
Nino and April still perform today. They are a must see.
I thank both wikipedia.org online encyclopedia and Nino Tempo's official website for information I obtained to write this poem.

Myrolvorets is a Ukraine website that publishes a running list of people
considered to be enemies of Ukraine whose actions are crimes against
National Security, peace, human security, and international law. The
identity of staff is secret. The site has no official status but is used.
It's slogan is "for the public" . It includes the personal data, email
addresses, and other information of journalist, terrorists, and other
people from all walks of life. There are thousands on this hit list in
2023, maybe even millions and that is very scary to think about.
Another problem for the world is the gathering of weapons of mass
destruction, be it nuclear, radiological, chemical, biological, or other
types that are being created and housed in countries all over the
world just so they are ready. I think it is appalling that there is
no consideration to the slaughter of people nature, animals, and the
suffering and the misery these would have on the world. Oh what if!
Also, viewing and experiencing violence on television, or in movies,
or in games has a desensitizing effect on people with a potential
to develop aggression in viewers. The disturbing content of shooting
guns, bombing, fighting, killing that some find enjoyable in time can
cause nightmares, depression, bullying, fear, stress, anxiety and lack
of empathy. Killing seems normal, bang, bang your dead.
There is a lot to be afraid of in 2023 . . .

Outbound calling is a given task.
Log in only in one website,he asked.
But this addiction don't know when would last.
this affecting my job,Oh no!
Am I losing my mind?
Dialling,communicating onshore.
Dealling and mocking by American people.
Do I have an option?
Chill ..I still need to go on.
Winter season, I met this one.
Thought it was love at first sight,
Feelings ponder,desires intensified.
I've been cheating when Boss's not around.
just to satisfy what my flesh demands.
I'm not a certified poet,
Not as good as anyone,
I just want to express my thoughts.
Make everything plain and fun.
More dramas,series of love.
This isn't about my life....
Afraid so much that this might end.
I could no longer use my hands.
No access at all ,eight hours a day.
Poetry soup,is this going to end?
Poems I used to made during work time,
I'll be missed,'cos at home its not welcome.
Signing off,Is it really an answer.
No way!..Break my bones,I'm gonna stand still.
Make this life a li'l more exciting,
Log in when the cat is not watching.
I saw a talk-show interview
of a new author, all the rage,
she had sold two million copies,
her book is everywhere these days.
It was tailor-made for women,
a downcast wife looking for love,
verbally abusive husband,
trapped in a situation tough.
Until one day she went out west,
going on vacation alone,
her husband said that he had work,
brushed her off, she was on her own.
She had gone out to a dude ranch,
she had loved horses as a kid,
where she met the ranch’s wrangler,
a mountain man cowboy named Sid.
He was what her husband was not,
Sid was caring, confident, cool,
he’d help he mouth, his touch would linger,
and she’d smile back like a fool.
They’d find themselves talking for hours,
finding any excuse to touch,
then one day in a mountain meadow
they spread a blanket and made love.
It was all that she lacked at home,
passionate, intense, and sincere,
she wished that she could never leave,
but she had a life, a career….
And her cowboy love made peanuts,
not enough for two to survive,
nesides, this was infatuation,
that’s what she told herself inside.
But at home she couldn’t be happy,
soon enough she longer for escape,
so once a year, for a whole week,
to her cowboy she’d make her way.
And this continued for eight years,
until she saw on their website,
that her man died in a car crash,
she hid her tears for that whole night.
Yet he had left a parting gift,
for she was sick in the mornings,
this was the author’s tragic tale,
it has countless fans adoring.
To seal the deal she did proclaim
that it was based on her own life,
she’d changed names, but much was quite real,
you sold more with tales of real strife.
My own wife was enrapt by it,
which caused me some little alarm,
but she just laughed and dismissed it
when I said such tales could do harm.
But something just didn’t sit right,
on the whole thing something seemed off,
I know truth is stranger than fiction,
but something kept making me scoff.
Real life just doesn’t work this way,
romance can never be that clear,
then throw in infidelity?
This tale was not what it appeared.
So in free time I went online,
digging into the author’s past,
and saw that I was not the first
to put this new writer on blast...
CONCLUDES IN PART II.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There once was a squirrel who wanted to be a bunny,
He dyed Easter eggs pastel and, oh so yummy.
His name was Eddie, quick as DoorDash*
And wore pink fluffy ears quite brash.
He hopped around, called himself Sunny.
But his hops proved a farcical fail,
His acrobatics turned tails pale~
He stored nuts in his cheeks,
And developed a twitchy mystique.
‘cause he drank too much Easter-themed ale!
*DoorDash is an online food delivery service that allows customers to order meals from local restaurants through its app or website, with drivers delivering the food directly to their location. It also offers additional services like grocery and retail delivery.(Source: Wikipedia.com)
shooting stars twinkle
sprinkling sparklers on the loose -
fading light expires
vows everlasting
impermanence tightly squeezed -
woes’ storms intertwined
sunshine’s radiance
reflects warm silent repose -
disquieting loss
winter breeze swishes
seasoned kindness transgresses -
permafrost daggers
future corroded
skies disunited in pain-
new love on the rise
listen to my words
it will only last three moons-
passion sprung open
it’s all about sex
carnal desire corrupted -
wild new passion heals
yesteryear future
dream catchers barely composed-
golden communion
seasons have faltered
grossly dishevelled it seems -
autumn recovers
jetsam’s drift reclaimed
anchour line in secure knots -
the universe heals

Writer's statement:
Haikus normally do not have a title, but I cannot leave the field blank on the website.
In my opinion a writer's statement distracts from the poem.
They have a turn after the second line.
They are about nature and nature is love and love can be lost and rediscovered.
This haiku is personal and autobiographical.
Enjoy reading.
This man was a laborer, and in vacuum cleaner sales.
He came a long way from Pontypridd in South Wales.
From humble beginnings as Thomas Jones Woodward,
Tom Jones has been one of the greatest singers heard.
With the early sixties British Invasion,
he became an entertainment sensation.
With his Edwardian billowing shirts and tight breeches on stage,
among his fans, Jones has been quite the rage.
Hit songs “It’s Not Unusual” and “Green Green Grass of Home” brought success.
Other hits include “Delilah”, “Love Me Tonight”, and “Daughter of Darkness”.
Jones once had his own television show.
He became a star millions of people would know.
He has always been a prominent man on the scene.
His career was topped with knighthood by the Queen.
Tom Jones has set a fine example in his day.
His fabulous career continues up to today.
Thanks to Tom Jones' website and wikipedia.org for the information I obtained to write this poem.
