For My Germany Bread Friends and Fiends
For My Germany Bread Friends and Fiends

About bread what we found to be so surprising,
Flour yeast seemed to find much trouble rising; 
Oh my Lord,
Flat as a board;
Now have been in agony and are aggrandizing....

sharp words 
scratching against the fabric 
of civilized society
slowly tearing apart 
the structure
of reason and tolerance
ignorant assaults  
launched by loud
self-appointed
self-important
self-aggrandizing 
fools...

Where (For Sarah)
Where will I be when your light is snuffed from my life?
When you no longer breathe the air I breathe, and I continue unknowing
chopping onions, typing letters, self-aggrandizing
Not knowing that like a Hiroshima survivor
I am the walking dead
my atomic clock ticking down...

Gander At My Dander
Gander At My Dander

About some people I have been realizing,
They enjoy bothering us and aggrandizing;
Get up dander,
Of my  gander;
Which I lately have really been surmising.

I think Trump annoys people on purpose
just to get their attention. Have you ever 
anything like that before?

I’m thinking we’re on a downhill slide
With self-aggrandizing politicians now,
Bloviating so self-assured and snide
Paying no attention to their campaign vow.
With an eye on their big monied donors,
They think little of their constituencies
Sometimes I think they are really stoners,
And need more prayer time on their knees.

A Dirge and a Doggerel
You may as well put the shovel down
If you think this vivisepulture will be my end
I survived the suffocation of a small town
And I'll be damned if this is how I descend

Just another obsequious sycophant 
And a supercilious, self-aggrandizing fraud
In this room there is but one elephant
And it will most certainly break down the façade

I will use the stone you try to bury me with
To build on top of your house a splendid monolith...
