I’m not offended by all the blonde dumb jokes
because I know I’m not dumb…
and I also know I’m not blonde
~ Dolly Parton
Dolly
Buxom and jolly
Not easily offended nor dull
Just look at her skull
Dolly
Oh by golly
Begging her Parton

Ode to my Grand Best friend
My grand best friend, you inspire me this night.
I love the way you look, wallow and run,
Invading my mind day and night, the light,
Always dreaming about the great mock sun.
Let me compare you to a pretender?
You are more ideal, little and charming;
Good frost nips the robins of December,
And wintertime has the mean mixed farming;
So envisaging and enticing your ways;
I love your spirit, attitude and charm;
Thinking of your attitude fills my days;
My love for you is the strong just as your arms;
Now I must away with a gracious heart,
Remember my short words whilst we're apart;

Desembogue - Tant Mieux
Behold where you travel where I travel
where our forever travels as if spinning
at a level of molecules we have always been mixed
Our short life span though a fantastical picture
unfolds together like a flower in time lapse
we journey you one way me another like star children
Destiny, detail, doom kismet akin a poem with a fixed form
errant, we traverse in search of wisdom
We agonize over all that is opposite
malentendu, malificent, mock sun, mock moon full circle until across a river of un-remembering
there you are there I am as if we always knew
I have posted in the ABOUT THIS POEM box to explain the title.

No matter who,
No matter where,
No matter when,
It only matters why and what for.

Yesterday was early,
Tomorrow will be late,
Today I have no time.

You can’t train in a gym?
You want to look young and slim?
Stay close to the old ones and fat.
There are many ways to skin a cat.
***
Sometimes I think:
Here is my happiness.
But after a drink for two
I see that it’s just another experience.
***
I am allergic to Scotch.
When I drink a lot of it
My tongue begins to itch.
***
I am on the seventh heaven!
I am here a baron!
Don’t place a ladder
If you don’t want to be a scrapper!
I will never go down
As I don’t want to be a clown!
***
SMS from someone’s wife:
Went to the place you’ve sent,
I understand what you’ve meant.
Behave here like a whore and ask myself:
Why didn’t I listen to you before?
***
A good thought means a lot.
It’s ****** of the brain
Which you have to train.
If you experience it
You’ll get fun.
Others who imitate it
Just get a mock sun.
***
When we were young,
When we were young,
Lovely nonsense was on the tongue.
