Thought of the day

pretty plastic doll as companion
life in it is by magic infused
for a while child plays with the object
delusion keeping her heart amused

I Read, That Carrots Help Stop Diarrhea

I read, that carrots help  stop diarrhea,
I was amused and  exclaimed: "Wow"!
It is not  easy  to imagine how,
Somebody put  the  carrot in his rear.

Some people 
can feel confused. 
While others 
are more amused. 
For the things you say, 
Can be taken
the wrong way.
It's only a point of view.

tryst with a digital twist

Can threesomes avoid apoplexy?
To have more than one might be sexy
He was amused
When his asks were confused
By the "girls" in the room called Alexi

Bitty Bird

Little wings, as if a bitty bird tries to fly away,
but I clutch this childish muse whose morphed teeny-tiny,
amused at how quickly time flies and how words escape me.

4am Thoughts

amused I am
by the sieve 
of a mid-city wannabe drunk
through which but a single
narcissistic gutter-rat apparition
can pass --

Amused

I’m amused
I have with me
a trophy
a red ripe tomato
a beautiful flower
a sharp thorn
a pendulum
a tick tock clock
a ping pong ball
a double-edged pin
my lost rib

Lamb Stew

The poor animal's all gender-confused
  Its friends say it is not at all amused
    Should it go meh-meh
    Or perhaps baa-baa
  At night, of counting sheep it is accused!

Beer and Hotdog Vendor

There once was a beer and hotdog vendor
He was named Sam, but then he changed gender
   His peers were confused
   The fans were amused
Now he's Sam, the Gender-Blender Vendor

Confused

So confused and yet you seem so amused.
 lost in a daze life seems like a maze.
 which way do you go ?
what is the next faze?
In this life , its so confusing and life’s too amusing.

His Doors Open

Keeps his options open, never closes a door
    the future is too fickle, who knows what's in store

  This profusion of choices finds him amused
    to think that all but one's refused

Quetzal



Quetzal birds are sacred,
quite a beautiful bird,
quiet most of the time,
quivering songs haunting,
quagmire of tall trees home,
quick flashes of colors,
quizzical amused face.

Barn Raising

Barn Raising
Dr. James E. Martin
©November, 2013

The barn was quickly raised.
The crowd was simply amazed.
They later were confused,
No one was amused,
As the barn was speedily razed.

Wacky

This wacky, 
     morning feeling 
     is here again.

That amused face 
in my mirror
looks ready to burst 
out laughing

     when it peeps out 
     and sees me 
     peeping in!

Listening To "a Piece En Forme De Habanera"

Alternating Major and minor
Sitting
Being cloud-tossed
Emotionally abused
Heart-struck!
I will myself never ending amused
Deeply    purposely used
How that poet knew    how well
That Ravel

Ran Off Mouth Again and Again

Ran Off Mouth Again and Again

When we ran mouth off again and again,
While around in circles tongue had been;
Had been confused,
Not being amused;
Nothing settled down and in orbit did spin.

Laughter--Not Always Music To the Ears

Loud, frequent laughter,
			when it's  at others' expense,
			earns the amused ones
			negative attention.  Each  
			ends up laughing all alone.

My Color

Orange-
It lives;
I'm amused.
How enchanting
Are its witty ways.
Melodic and modern,
Inquisitive towards all,
Obnoxious, yet magnificent
Is its exuberance, alluring.
Brazen intrepidity comes from Orange.

You Were Vicious As a Viper

I began shutting down
hard and fast 
the minute you tore my soul out 
with your meanness
you were as vicious as any viper
it amused me that you thought I would care that you left
 after experiencing these words

Jan's Pans

She writes of the stuff in the loo,
amused by the odour of poo -
she has me in fits
describing her sh.ts
(though others believe it's taboo...)

Point-Blank

Unnerving news, it lit the fuse,
And at "point-blank" range, I was shot
But then we found ourselves amused-
That you were dead and I was not!

*This is a silly piece, just written at the time, I suppose, for the sake of irony

Acme To the Rescue

I fondly remember Road Runner cartoons
That amused us until weekend afternoons
Wile E. got just desserts
On that barren desert
But I wished Acme mailed him Kevlar balloons

Just Me and the Outside

Roosters squawk
Birds kee who
Jet plane roars overhead
Temporarily taking the stage
Tomorrow rain will come
Today it is just me and the outside
Almost silent 
Roosters squawk
A lone car horn
Hilarious for no good reason.

Waiting

After the slaughter,
   the moon was blue-
as if poisoned.

*

I was not amused
   by this celebration.
Could not sleep by hurricane.

*

   The insects.
You cannot become Buddha,
   sitting unmoved.
