Long Whole shebang Poems

Armadilly Billy needed repair work on the home, as he wanted to move in.

Pool's Prince Charming
by Michael R. Burch

this is my tribute to the legendary pool shark "Saint Louie" Louie Roberts

Louie, Louie, Prince of Pool,
making all the ladies drool ...
Take the “nuts”? I'd be a fool!

I’d like to discuss the manners of crow,
That dine on the roads where cars come and go.

They peck at road kill without forks or knives,
But ‘caw, caw’ to their friends, saving their lives.

They don’t use...

Your list of words is *dubious,
so many came from slang.
I fear my up-tight mama
would forbid the whole shebang.

one with trees 
growing on it
and grass
sprout- sprouting forth

I am a valley
one with rivers 
gushing from its bossom
giving life

undefiled
and souls so pure.

I like faint fire I feel
fueling me with fervor
for far off places without you

ignited by your carefree hand

I like warmth seeping in
letting my blood...

Long ago
a year or so
I received accolades a plenty
I won this, and I won that
I was on top of it all

the casual bystander may step back in horror
fearing a deadlock standoff
unaware every angle works perfectly 
    no one dies
I'm so confident ~
