Lay Down Misere Faceoff
Lay down misère faceoff
In 500 card game
The open misère bid
To lose all tricks
Is a no-trump call....

System Error 500
What should I see here?
"System Error Five Hundred"
What does this thing mean?
My poetry disappeared.
Oh how that thing pissed me off!

Jellyfish Have No Brains
Jellyfish have no brains and still cope
For 500 million years, that gives me new hope
My brain's a good one
But it's on vacation
People still leave me really weird notes...

CHEERS
Limericks have been here for some 500 years
With a view of giving good cheers
From great inspiration
To expelled narration
Mine was written after a few beers

Four Thousand Poems
Just passed the 4,000 poem level on the Soup
A veteran you could say, prolific... holy poop!
James Horn made me aware
Had just reach this rarified air
About 500 behind James, hope to close the loop...

System Error 500 Is Back Again
I would like to make some nice comments on poetry,
but right now, this annoying thing won't let me.
This is truly a very egregious thing to see.
Don't worry, I will comment on your work eventually.

Zest
Quatrain #500:
ZEST
Zest funds fond wit with ample flow,
Embrace calm fit as thought now shows;
See how light bits inspire new highs,
Touch as you sit a heart that knows.

Take Away Right of Way
These just came to me between 0500 and 0800 this morning Jan 06, 2018.
When You Take Away Right of Way
When you take away right of way,
And also along with right to say,
If you amend,
We commend;
From rules people seem to stray.

The Doggone Dog Contest.
Rufus: Irish Rover Purebred and a Fortune 500 Pup ( As told by Rufus himself.)
Watch me snarl all the salesmen away,
ram the door, keep the mailmen at bay.
Each evening, I break
for a fresh T-bone steak.
The sun shines on my ass the WHOLE day....

Quatrain #500:

Mind and heart sync with soul that knows,
Observe fond think as more now flows;
Rouse voice that links grand ample health,
Express rich brink that ever grows.

Ingrid
Ingrid
Ingrid is a computer geek.
Never wake Ingrid up before 8:00.
Genius or not, sometimes rash words fly.
Reads, 500 pages in one day.
Ingeniously resourceful
Daring at times.

Last Trains To Nowhere
Here we almost don't have
no trains coming or leaving...
It was nice to travel and I remember it well...
The music 500 hundred miles,
I never listened again...
It's sad to sight a train leave
for infinite railroads beyond...
The land of no return... !...

Oak Tree
An Oak tree
Branches sway violently
Leaves lose their place and descend at a frightening speed
Silently covering the ground I'm what appears to be death
Roots remain firmly underground
It's 500 year survival place
I'm no oak tree
I cannot survive this storm...

Untitled Number 4
One hard, metal frame
Split box spring; mattress stacked upon
"500 count-thread" fitted sheet
Flat, satin sheet; neatly spread above all
6 pillows, 3 additional decorative cushions
One oversized, cold, striped bedspread
One Body, to soak up all the comforts?

Salvage Yard Freeway-
Salvage yards hand me down
throttle starters transmission brawls
Clutch drive spent wheels ravages
Four-wheel drive, five-speed Savages,
all this going on in the Salvage junkyard tow yard
Just 500 feet from the freeway?

My Beloved
I wish our love
Never retreats.
My heartbeats
an’ leaps
an’ steeps
in our love in our love.
A masterpiece
some feat
tranquility and peace
In our love - thoughts and treats.
Your heart
jumpstart
repeat
In our love - we dream and sleep.
500 miles away
yet we never sway....

I Hate It
21
I hate it
I hate the drugs
I hate the people
I hate the depression
I hate the needles
I hate my actions
And what I do
For drugs
Mounting huge debts
And owing out my check
Each month but now
Im good 900 deposited
Into my savings and I still
Got over 500 left
Probably put in some more...

Mexican Gold
Maybe I'll start smoking weed again
I was much happier back in those Mexican gold days
tickling nickel bags- giggling away the night
playing 500 rummy with my best buddy mike
crushing the munchies with bowls of mac-n-cheese
forever plotting to overthrow virginity...
praying our pimples to fade away by Monday....

Love Affair With Money
Why do people have love affairs with money?
It will never hug you and call you honey!
It's something that will come and go
If that's used to keep life balanced,
I really hope you don't loose your big toe
When it's all gone and your staring at your last wall
Will you think about your fortune 500 brand in a picture down the hall?...
