Rip Roaring Poems


Premium MemberThe Rip-Roaring Twenties

Back in the rip-roaring days of the twenties
Free sex was available and there sure was plenty
While doing the Jelly Roll
Girl's parts they would show
And men started flashing their twenties

STEAMING NOSTRILS, RIP-ROARING LOUD

you know a great movie when you press your own palm
over your mouth, eyes pop, breath rasps
open the gates, all of them

R andom radicals rush rip-roariously on ward 
O nerously oggling on-lookers abroad
A nnealing axle-grease atop ankle-high boots   
D eliberately dashing dilettante seekers
T raveling tenaciously toward tree-lined detours 
R oad rage roars, racers recline, rear-wheels wheelie 
I mprobable instances intoxicate incalculable intensity
Probably, they'd get there alive!?
S irens sound

E mptiness emanates extravehicular extemes 
N ickle-plated, nonentities now
D eath, death, dangles
I nsanities inane inference 
N ickle-plated, nonentities now
G one.

Rip Roaring Women Tribute To Pakastani 14 Yr Old Taliban Victim

RIP ROARING WOMEN

Some of us
are just born quirky
Run from kitchens
Hide
From the housewifely tasks
Read hardy boy books
Sitting in an apple tree

Some of us collect bruises
instead of dolls

Some of us
Want to fly
Want to climb away the fear
    Of never fitting in  
     yearning for new books instead of gowns

Here’s to you Malala
  Who wants to fly
   into the world of books

Pakistani child, 14 years old
   Taliban hit, yet still survives
   defied  bullets 
May you live on to climb with us

We are still climbing
   Reading
   Jumping
   Flying
   Struggling but climbing into
    Joyful lives of contentment
