I fear I lack a certain angst I ought,
prerequisite of any proper bard.
I’ve started losing sleep over the thought
why milkshakes bring the boys out to the yard?
I’m hoping now my rhymes are nice and taut.

adding ten pounds to my waist

On this merry-go-round
Of breakups and breakdowns
Singing the blues
In our ding-a-ling shoes
We take our heartache's milkshakes
Spiked with itty-bitty pity
Before we tangle and wrangle
In the rebound playground.

I was a simple picture of a person,
just a gulp of a guy.
She was not my first girl; she was the second.
It was a Dairy Queen date,
banana milkshakes, me tanking-up on her foggy
eyes,
imagining her naked foggy
female body parts.
It was then that she abruptly
slammed her wet wriggling mind
down on to the plastic tabletop.
A floppy mind it was, with no brains
and no bones.
Her fishy mind edged closer to me
as if wanting to be fed. I fled.
That night I dreamed of her bubbly wet kisses
flying like manta rays
above the rooftops of our town
seeking out foggy young men
to puddle with.

... Milkshakes (Epulaeryu)
Homemade milkshakes bring delight.
Milk and ice cream churned
I dream of cookies and cream
Swirling in my glass
Sipping past my lips
Thick and cold—
Ah!
