I shudder while peering at sepia photographs, showing visits to my maiden Aunt Hilda’s house. Even though I was very young it was clear she didn’t tolerate children. I was to be ‘Seen and not heard.’ Pa said I wasn’t to utter a word. I loathed being pushed and forced to kiss her. Aunt's wrinkled leathery skin looked like she’d been pickled in...

time doesn't wait for our pleasure, nor the patience of neglect to ~ endure forever... because it knows and feels, none of this, nor how regret births tomorrow's measure! forgotten fruits fall and wither and know nothing of those who may have celebrated their perfection ~ they simply live and die, never to have wondered why? Yet,...

Have you heard the story, in all of it's fun and glory. It is about a young girl named Lori, she went with a boy named John Dory. She went running to the lavatory, was this going to become inflammatory? Eating blue cheese and old pickles each day, sitting by the bay. Her boyfriend John Dory just wanted to play, she kept saying no...

Something old, something blue, Aged not old, a odd pairing, which unfits the mold. Taste acquiring, pungent smell, putrid looks, uninspiring. It is the dare that begs one to love it. One good sense of five ain't too bad, When you hold your nose, close your eyes and taste it, breathlessly, senselessly, there's the rub....

BLUE CHEESE AND OLD PICKLES
BLUE CHEESE AND OLD PICKLES Looking back at the decades gone by Over the wall at hammers and sickles Berlin with a certain oldworld appeal Just the setting for spy novels, I feel For me, blue cheese and old pickles A ‘60s memory that’s now gone dry Blue cheese veins, a suggestion of age Old pickles in vinegar make me wince Some say they...

Quince shaped houses landscape Julienned Street where citric groans once molded a blue cheese night. In one home lives reclusive Graham and his wife, Coco, two dilled, old pickles nervously living on the lamb. Busted selling urine for addiction pee tests, they agreed to flee from a legal barbeque. Combining their bran, they landed on Julienned. They peppered with fright...

I fought the good fight, yet still I lost and you stood in brackish silence with bitter reward in briny eyes proffering spiny frowns shoulders crumbled with aging ache and brow dimpled with sour failure I staggered dragging the last crumbs through the madness of a blue funk ...

Blue cheese and old pickles - yukkety yuk. Take them away from my face. Blue cheese is so stinky. Also its taste even with wine I can’t chase. If the pickles are dill, I do not care if they are new ones or old. I take pickles sweet or not one at all. Dill is no better than mold!...

Don’t ask me again how long. A good joint could last awhile. That blue cheese smell gave gags, the price for sky-high smiles. Don’t ask me again how many. Really, who remembers them all? Some were fun and young, others old and small. We all had a shelf life. No more swinging from the tree. A grocery bag of memories ...

Blue Cheese and Old Pickles – 3-14-25 Dedicated to my Grandmother Pickel and her famous pickles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blue Cheese and Old Pickles Forgotten in a tapestry of shadows Woven in long twilights and long rows Of blue cheeses, tomatoes, daisies and flying salmon Shelves, birthing dust bunnies, Give up the last jar of her pickles Sealed in clear mason glass Still smelling of dill...
