Christmas being overswung
a big retail axe
gashing pocketbooks early

With lies quite shy of the facts

But nothing at all is free to me

The forgotten ramblings of an old acorn,
Will never become anything.
 
A mighty and tall tree,
Will not yield to the axe below.
 
But it still falls.

There once was a mad barber named Max
Instead of scissors, he wielded an axe
   He chopped off your hair
   And shaved your head bare
Then he rubbed on depilatory wax

Had hair growing like steroided flax,
He sat in the salon chair
The barber looking on in despair,
Saying, "Wait here, I'll just get my axe."

And her adoring young

Fried pig flesh and body parts

Come In Your Darkness

Drag me away with
hooded lids
      to the dark of you.

Give axe to gates
protecting cheerless
     spirit under siege.

Swallow me in haste
lest I discover
     we cannot.

The green glider fell off the porch today
Broken into huge pieces
Destroyed by a large axe

Tragic accident I guess said mother
We kids snickered little bit
Knowing she wanted red
