The gateway to India

Where is my Bombay

Who now passes
through these golden
gates...

A sweet Texas tart
Who has a big heart
And a buttocks the size of Bombay...

Skunks In Bombay
Skunks have religious sanctum in Bombay
Protected from hunting both night and day
Skunk whisper was good
But misunderstood
When in skunk language they said, "Let us spray!"...

Had a computer matched date on Valentines Day

Misunderstood the American meaning of “gay”...

Premium Member Holding On To a Jet Stream
I skated holding onto the tail of a jet stream today.
We went to Dubai, Zimbabwe Omaha and Bombay.
I got back before lunch before my mother could say
Where have you been child? In the yard you must stay!...

Limerick: Once a measly Miser in Mumbai

Once a measly Miser in Mumbai
Liked watching dancing girls on the sly
He went to Bolly-Wood
Though he felt jolly good
His loot sucked by Bombay Ducks well nigh.

           There once was a man from Bombay.
           Insistent, on having his way!
           Poor devil, drove drunk.
           Mashed his car into a trunk.
           Wife bailed him out, no delay.

Born In Bombay
Before you were real, you were a dream.
Before you were a dream, you were an actress, born in Bombay. 
Her’s is Ayesha; yours is Ali, and she told me you were coming, years before you came, and she placed you inside of my heart.
You’ve since become a keloid on my soul....

Choices
Choices there are so many,
Like roads they will take you places
Some choices will leave you with not so many.

Some will bring you honest money
Some will bring you children and drug money
Some will take you far away,
Possibly to the shores of Bombay

What Possesses us to make these choices?
Is it the guys, the girls, and the places?
Or is it your parents, and those odd little voices?...

A Little Trip
We followed the trail to the edge of the cliff
then siix purple seagulls
gave us a lift

way out on the island of kalamazoo
we chartered a couple of young kangaroo
to bounce us to Boston
or maybe Bombay
we knew that where ever we went
we could pay,

the twenty six pickles 
they asked for the ride
(we gave them two more
for a tip with great pride)

Now we've come to visit 
for maybe a year,
or seventeen minutes,
it isn't quite clear....

Transits
he had lunch in Paraguay,
just a typical type of day,
then stepped through his portal
for dinner in Bombay.
it was an exciting type of life
with his mental time machine
sometimes he left a place
before he’d ever been.
he recorded these aberrations
deep down inside his head;
he knew the day her met himself
was the day he would be dead.
he glanced at himself in the mirror
with a wry sort of smile
then slipped through his portal
for breakfast by the nile....
