Amazing Alicorn named Alister
wonder alicorn Alister flew into my garden on a Thursday night
I had been lonesome, so seeing her was a terrific sight.
In jewel tones of purples, lavenders and turquoise too.
Hey! She said to me, let’s be great friends, if it’s okay with you.
Where did you get your name, I asked Alister, as she landed on a

To Be Named Again
One day…
After the fires are done
And the water has carried all maps away…
Someone will find you.
Not to save...
To name again.
And then, you will remember
You were not lost.

There Once Lived A Woman Named Jell-O Jiggler
There once lived a woman made of Jell-O. She jiggled and wiggled
as she walked. Invisible to most she was as clear as a window pane.
She often wore her heart on her sleeve and ended the day with washed
up colors, kind of like gelatin in hot water.
You can only imagine

A Happy Fellow Named Jack
There's this happy fellow named Jack
A serious bone in his body he lacks
When they finally close his coffin
He'll be scratchin' and clawin'
Yelling a la Schwarzenegger “I'll be back”

Named Person
How could you do me this way?
I thought you said you liked me..
Ever since the first glance my heart felt relief
I guess I was fooled, what an imbecile
I felt it coming? Why so soon? I wasn’t enough?
WHY WONT YOU SPEAK? YOU KNOW WHO I AM..
Sigh, trapped in my mind. Everything replays.
I think about you

Gopher named Ray
a gopher sat on my toe today
sassy and saucy, his name was Ray
What fun do you have? The scamp asked me
I rocked my toe, so he could see
Do that again, he goaded me
I teeter-tottered him to my knee
Come back tomorrow the gopher said
He blew me a kiss and my face turned red

The Horse Named Maybe
I bought me a horse from a feller named Clyde,
said, "She’s gentle and sweet, just a joy for to ride."
Well, "Maybe" she was, and maybe she weren't--
the first thing she did was dump me in dirt.
I saddled up hopeful, boots shiny and proud,
"Maybe" just yawned and sat down on the ground.
I pulled, and I pushed,

They Named Me Zeus
From East to West
let my servant's trumpet
announce this victory
over those who defied me;
no Greek dares to fight me:
I am their uttermost deity!
They named me Zeus
and look to me for guidance,
I carry the thunderbolt
and I strike all enemies with vengeance;
they fell by the dozen
in the battlefield below Athens,
the ones who survived will challenge me

A Racehorse Named Desire
Should we have walked six miles instead of two?
What else were I to do?
Bowed down and raging
Fuming in our cages
I left it all to you
You wield your power
and I could only cower
to the fear of losing
With you I'm always losing
How awful the decline
Fanfare to jeers
Running into the fears
Stayed by the friend
The cause of my end
They

THE DEVIL NAMED DEMENTIA
I'm in a pickle
Soured sometimes I cry
Because there's not much time here
For I will soon leave memories behind
There is no time for regrets
No time for bitterness
Nothing needs to be undone
I'm only space filled with skin and bones
A beautiful mind only remembers from long ago
I brushed my teeth today
I dressed myself
Combed my hair
I looked in

A Kid Named Cat
In a world of colors, bright and bold,
Lives a kid named Cat, with a story untold.
With a heart full of dreams, and a spirit so free,
Yet trapped in a body that doesn’t agree.
They walk through the halls, a smile on their face,
But inside, they feel

My Cat Named Mischievous
My cat is aptly named Mischievous
A little ball of fur
She doesn't weigh much
But how dearly I love her
She always spills her milk
Then licks her whiskers clean
She doesn't do it on purpose
She doesn't seem to be mean
She lays on the carpet
Rolled up into a ball
In her
