Nightlight Fight
Every night I have the same crazy fight
It's always me against this one nightlight
It goes out just quit
I get up bang it
It cuts back off I fall down just not right...

(Limerick crown in question)
Dear Jack will have none of that!
Don’t tromp in his sordid vat!
The leading voice —
So back off boys!
Tom cat...play fair...now you scat!

Isolation
Just back off of me
I want to be alone now
Don't bother me, please
I need time to think
Let me clear my clouded thoughts
I'm so confused now
So just leave me be
I can do this on my own
Now just let me go...

The Long Road
He's my brother and he's sure gotten heavy
Methinks it's too much pasta and meatballs quite steady
Should back off that stuff
It's way-way too much
A diet of veggies and water would un-fat his belly...

Silent Bow
Today I take my bow
I'll back off
And leave you alone
Because I know your answer
It's the same answer I've always got
So I'll take my bow
You won't see me
Only underone condition
If you wanna see me
You have to ask....

A Frog in the Age of Reason
From frog to princess,
"It is the season,
And we live in the age of reason.
Please give me a kiss!"
From princess to frog,
"You, a springtime prince?
And, with such reason, you would convince?
Jump back off your log!"...

Gonna back off, from now on some Wordsworth stuff will flow
With nose in the air

Will prove I'm not just another pretty face, you know...

Some People Insist
Some people insist that I keep writing limericks
Don't want to overstay my welcome in this mix
So I'll write a few
But back off, phew!
Unless of course youse guys start throwing big bricks

Prism Writhe - Haiku - Monoku - Monoku - Haiku
Sun settles
On the winter chimes
While setting.
As crystals, virtuous choir, ring— running frost on glass; shadows back off
At a bruised muse's light split— cold brass on fire
Sun settles
From December's trill
Like bright gloom....

Professional Home Invaders Advice
professional home invaders don’t rob family homes
when they see signs of children they back off
because children are unpredictable
not socialized like grown ups
so put some toys in your driveway
and balloons in your window
to remain safe...

In View of the Mirror
Muted solitary moments run for days,
as the air of discontent begins to scoff
we vent in a wordless empty praise
pretending, telling the truth to back off;
in view of the mirror all bets are off.

What Is Her Deal
sitting wondering
what´s her deal
is she for real
what does she
want from me
what´s up with
the third degree
you do not know
me
stop judging me
who made you
judge and jury
just back off
leave me alone
just sit there
and ignore me
like normal...

Look here, Tiger.
Back off,
or your tennis
balls might get caught.
In my own talons,
of course.
Stronger now
this rubbery
slope.
And I slip inside
my spinal column
to avoid your
spitfires.

Life In Pajamas
Wearing my p.j.’s again today.
Third day?
Fourth?
Nineteenth?
It is my painting outfit, so back off.
I take a whiff.
It’s not that bad yet.
I might put it into the laundry.
The laundry king knows it has to be washed by morning.
Guess I will keep him another forty-nine years....

Blessing For Cats
a pleiades
Back off, speedy cat, wait for the word;
Brakes on, until the blessing be heard.
Button up, fat lips, let us give thanks.
Brother, do you remember the Manx?
Busy with gobbling, he failed to pray.
Buzzsaw, the dog, determined to play,
Bob-tailed cat, end result, on that day....

Under Siege
constant reminder
the failure I am...
I can stand here and I
hear your ongoing demands...
your disappoints...
your total dissatisfaction
this realism-
your life you criticize...
back off!..
I've heard enough
my only disappoint met
is for you...
...I never was enough......

Field Day
Time to have fun and play!
Time to compete and race!
Your hearts pounding!
You are sweating like crazy!
You move left, right, then back!
Try to get the ball to the team, try to make the goal!
Throw left or right.
Enemy team is not letting up!
Their all over you!
You try and try, but they wont back off!...

Images of You
I MOVE
AROUND AND AROUND
TRYING TO GET THE RIGHT IMAGE
OF YOU
IN MY MINDS EYE
I COME
CLOSER AND CLOSER
AND THEN BACK OFF
SEEKING THE RIGHT COMPOSITION
OF YOU AND EVERYTHING ELSE
I MOVE
IN AND OUT
FOCUSING SHARPLY
ON THOSE THINGS
THAT SHOULD STAND OUT
AND BLURRING THOSE THINGS
THAT SHOULD BE LEFT
IN THE BACKGROUND
VAGUE IMAGES
BEST FORGOTTEN...

Land Ho
Land ho!
If I can just make it to that post….
Bird was exhausted, but distant dot gave him hope
Now if you can make it to the next landing spot
You have it made, an inner voice said
Bird asked the voice to back off
Let me have ten minutes to enjoy this, okay?
Send him an owl, inner voice said, loud enough for him to hear.
Bird flew off, frightened and unrested....

Another Part of My Life
You are confused,
but the answer is so clear.
You say "back off,"
only because you hold your broken heart so near.
You hurt others before the hurt you,
because we have never learned to fully love and care.
Outsiders never seem to understand us,
an the things that we had to bear.
But, sister, don't give up on your adoptive family,
because they will always be there....
