A Day In School, Thru Autistic Eyes

Just my alarm, I hit the button
Get up and go to the bathroom
I brush my teeth with my toothbrush
Scratchy, painful bristles
Toothpaste that makes me sick
With the strong...

Follow the Bouncing Ball
She dresses the land down
in a virginal bridal gown
a masterfully cut and sewn chenille
shines brightly with a fine crystal appeal
Her assistants work quite diligently
to add special touches and then flee
they decorated the mountain peaks
using all their...

I grew up in Poortown
A mile down the road
From hard topped streets
Where Miss Eleanor lived
She sat on the front porch
Smoking ready rolled
Eating brought on peaches
And she would hide...

The Inflated Nation
The Inflated Nation!
Americans growing wider by the minute!
Is there a Russian collusion behind this illusion?
(Now, there's a breaking news headline
with real meat in it)
(Mashed potatoes, ah,don't forget,
drowning in a greasy, gravy pit?)
Served at your table,...

Under the cemetery of falling stars, beneath veils of eternity
Under the cemetery of falling stars, beneath veils of eternity,
The end of any affair is death. She is my sanctuary,
An evanescent eye, slipping through the magical veil,
Far from the tribe of my soul, my breath
Finds...

rescued by a mendicant sage brush sorcerer
resulting in his remembering everything

Flawed Limericks
There is a state of mind known as woebegone
In which one feels like an addict on methadone
The more one tries to feel upbeat
The more one suffers mental defeat
And the mind plays on like a gramophone.

Frankenstein Rebounds
It started with a single thread,
something, someone once had said
something, for which I still felt dread
something, that I'd long thought dead
This thing, that would not leave my mind,
this thing, so mirthless and unkind
a mote in...

I saw a man today with zippers on his shoes
and platforms in the news
never stopped him from stepping in the street
I ask him why he looks at the sky
while bombs are blasting at his feet

The Point of No Return
Sixteen year old sweethearts, in her house all alone;
Her father still at work, her mother not at home;
Kissing they had tried; leaving hickies on their necks;
Petting body parts, they would venture onto next.

Our Blues
Jealousy
You make us slip into
suits of the children we once were-
with buttoned hearts
to our sleeves
Lips interlocked like
the sharp zigzags in closed zippers-
Skipping ropes of uncertainty and
playing hide and seek with our

Biker At the Drugstore
It’s a very busy drug store
with seats along the wall
where folks who wait for refills

than when you walk in.

Show Me
A bright light engulfs the room
and suddenly disappears
ushering a blazing essence
that abruptly evolves in the atmosphere,
buttons unlatched
zippers break loose
shirts collapses over skirts
flesh dancing in flesh
flesh devouring flesh
and impatient breath
whispering soft words...

that life begins at ejaculation
or more equally, orgasm, a come-along
and tongue-in-cheek we hardly speak

My Wallet
My wallet is a good friend of mine.
It was a bifold one when I purchased it. (but now...many folds developed)
Once it used to be brown and elegant
But gradually metamorphosed and faded.
