Premium MemberThe Score Huitain

Deafening the score for spring break,
set off by the harp’s gentle voice. 
That pas de deux of give and take,
a fever pitch played with such poise.
There are so many twisted toys
 that masquerade as gentlemen.
Soft banter that clamors a choice:
do you want cheap or a bargain?

You win the game
You hit the score
But then again
You want some more
What you achieved
Soon gone to past
You can’t retrieve
It wouldn’t last
Another time
Has come again
You’re not in line
You’re not the same
You’re out for lunch
You’ve had it all
You’ve come to crunch
Its not your fault
Your day is done
Its overdue
And when it comes
You know it should
That winning lot
Was it

Keeping Score

The bartender strolls from one
end of the counter to the other.
She makes small talk with regulars
who watch NFL games on screens
and a college basketball game
plays on another.
For each touchdown scored
mugs are raised.
Fans analyze every run and play
and the day unfolds.
while the bartender pours beers.
She says her boyfriend and dog
are at home.
A man at the end

Premium MemberA Morning Score of Freedom

robust lyrics
winged-voices blest without angst
no pressers
pleasure and glory of God
winged-voices soar without war

a morning score
no bombs, no television
unflappable peace
no reporters in trees
paparazzi unheard of

joy of joining
in the singalong-chirping
with lovely weather
no choppers to ruin tweets
the twilight birds asleep

IN JEST

His miser boss 
Went out for a toss
When the MD knocked his door.

He plummeted down 
To save his crown
When his senior asked for more.

His hair had grown
 on his chest
On his back as well down south.

Where nested in peace
There hung two bees
His tongue got stuck in his mouth.

The doc came up 
Once or twice
To run

Premium MemberTriple Word Score

I had an offer to play a game of scrabble online
There was no chatting in the room to give me a sign
about whom my worthy opponent could possibly be
but we were well matched by the score, I could see

Assumed it was a guy from the name he was using
My Mistake was his screen ID, and

FROM THE DIARY OF AN EMPLOYER

I want you to come to me
With all the reasons good.
With nothing much to worry about,
Less to be misunderstood.

I want you to look at me
With love and care and hope.
I want you to read my eyes,
Where words find little scope.

I want you to be heard 'midst all
And spread the dew of love.
I want you to

Repellent

Three performers enter the room.

Two children.

One adult.

The children stand like two scarecrows in a rice field.

The adult takes a can and sprays the children;

careful not to miss a spot.

The children put their hands down and prepare to exit,

The adult whispers,

“they’re everywhere”.


(Author's Note: This is a Fluxus event score)

St Remy Wine For Enemy

He had as a friend met Remy,
Now, he is his sworn enemy:
On seeing Remy would withdraw,
Race towards any exit door,
For if Remy did, sword could draw:
A full fight or half of it sure!

A friend suggests "Buy St Remy
For your Remy Arch Enemy:
It should wounds heal and clean the sore,
Cold water on scalded heart pour.
"Good ideas
