The Candle Had No idea of her Allure
Dear Future Generations,
The candle did not know whether to snuff herself out
Or begin dancing around the cemetery and give a shout
She knew she was not going to join her cousin, on walk-about
But other than that, she had a vague sense of doubt
Who do you think you are? Asked the snippy porcupine.
He was still pouting when

No Idea Why
I have no idea why I am not a man
I have always wanted to be one
The boys could yell out answers in class
I got slammed to the floor for yelling them out
I despise things women are supposed to like.
Cleaning, cooking, dusting, moping, vacuuming
I will not do them; they are redundant and boring
I have no idea

Poem with No Idea
I had an idea for a poem
You must trust me - it was great.
I would love to share it with you,
But it left on an outbound freight.

Hate titles sorry no idea what i shall write here
I stepped on poop the day before.
The ends of my baggy jeans were full of it.
,,mhmmm, not tasty", I say to my rommate.
This thing ruined my entire day.
So when my dog pooped the other day,
I brought a bag and brought it away.
Do I want people to step on it? Not really.

kitty has no idea
Snail travels to Japan in the fanciest way
We see him traveling, he’s cutesy today
He is wearing a camera around his neck.
He stops to give the emperor a genuflect.
His hat is from Australia, his eyeglasses from the wild.
He scoots around old men, he picks up a lady bug child.
We flowers surround him, admiring his ensemble of

loving the striped skies of the gorgeous horizon
having no idea she is being stalked
or that this is her last day

No Idea I Am a Dragon
Man of la Mancha
Has no idea I am a dragon
He thinks I am a dog
With a tail that is a’wagg’n.
His sidekick Panza knows
But does not give it away.
I love spending time with them.
They know how to laugh and play.

Had No Idea She Could Look Girly
Lilian invited us to her recital
she was a quintessential tomboy
We could not imagine her in a skirt
Or as a dancer
We attended anyway, for she was our friend.
We had always seen her in bulky sweats.
We had no idea she was light on her feet
or that she could look girly.
The prima donna was a whirlwind of activity
she

She Had No Idea How Sultry She Was
She had no idea how sultry she was
Thinking as a mother of two, she was average
She was a rare beauty, inside and out.
Her skin was almost as soft as their baby’s skin.
Her husband could barely look away.
She was his undoing, his princess, his goddess.
How had he ever landed a woman like this?
She gave him a

I Have No Idea I Lied To My Chicks
Camouflage me quickly the fowl yelled as he landed.
Did not know who he was, but we ran out with paints - blue and red.
Can we colorize your feathers asked our leader, Mrs. Banded.
Do what you must to keep me away from the broiler, he said.
What are you talking about? Asked our naïve chicks of yellow.
With

You Have No Idea
is it misguided pride
when in every way
I want you
to take me
possess me
claim what is yours
all the while refusing
to hand myself over
like some cheap prize
at a country fair
everybody plays a game
abiding by the rules
concocted in their head
when do we realize
that some games
have no winners

She Has No Idea I Am a Liberal Hippie
She gives me her ideas, none of them mine.
I nod my head, but my soul is dancing in time.
The hippie wagon is coming for me today.
With a smile and a wave I yell hip hip hooray!
She is a member of a political party I abhor.
But this does not keep her away from my door.
She hates

They Have No Idea of Me
Ballerina envy in a rhino’s body
I toast one high, drinking up my toddy.
Others probably think I was always old like this.
I give them a wink and blow them a kiss.
They are horrified, seeing an old crone sitting here.
Having no idea that I was once young, sexy and dear.
I smack my lips and make loud sounds
