Valentine Haiku Questionku 2

Just another day
Stopped on the way home from work
Drugstore leftovers

I just want to eat
Alone amid the couples
Save your pity please

Anticipation 
Wrapped gift sitting on her lap
Did he lose his way?

Here's a phrase you don't hear anymore “Gotta get to a phone, there's one in that drugstore” Can't even take pics No clicks of chicks Only clicks when she hangs up, then shed tears galore

Wedding  dress rides bicycle.
She cracked ribs staring in my window. 
                        Crocodile teardrops jail cell.
Peat shale lignite.
                   Venus squaw bean.
Police car mother death.
          Late September,
Drugstore beads. sandalwood.

Drugstore 'Re-Post'

Friends are like drugstore
They provide:
The liquid to ease cough caused by handsomeness
The ointment to cover scars caused by scratching truth
The pills to ease irritation caused by lies
The band-aid to collect yourself up after shattered by love

Thanks friend for healing us up

Premium Member The Drugstore

I stole a garden hid it from flames,
to try and keep just one thing alive;
Collateral carnage of war games,
a single bloom of evolution won't thrive;

Detonation of everything but peace,
so careless is the nature of war;
Decimated there's nothing to seize 
save P.T.S.D flooding the drugstore.

Premium Member Penny Candy Paradise, 1962

...just inside the front door of Rexall Drug
the penny-candy bottom-shelf (easy reach!)
stretched about 15' I can picture it even now!


My little fingers
tightly clench
six saved pennies,
as I hurry to the drugstore
 aisle filled with
penny candy treasures,

….as far as my
eyes can see.

Drugstore Jesus

he fills the bottles slowly
no need for miracles
prescription drugs
save the soul

wash away the sins
with a glass of water
take two and call me
tomorrow

the pain of the world
written on paper
prayers answered
little purple pills

the people’s god
rattle in plastic containers

they stand in line
waiting their turn
giving their money
to drugstore jesus

Cell

I am with you in your cell
reading cheap drugstore
literature.

I am with you in your cell
though you curse me, and the spring.
Your mind, macabre.

I am with you in the cell
you chose: a toxic chrysalis
in grey.

I am with you in your cell,
without crystal, without choice.
Your mind, feeble.

Street daughter no longer,
Glimpse of reason beyond needle,
no longer. . . and yet still
I am with you in your cell.

Premium Member A tincture of wether '

Have you tried to buy iodine.? In your local
Chemist or drugstore at some contemorary
Time.? Its today not so obtainable as it was in my youth, when it was most plentifull, thats my clear memory in truth.'
Is it because its being poured up in the skies? To cause extreme weather.? For
 that would explain much to my mind if
Industrial quantitys are being so used.? It
Would explain much..That is falling that
Is giving many the blues.?

Premium Member A Stroll Along Memory Lane

Images cascade before us
  Strolling 'long memory lane
Lithe and supple were we back in those days
  Before decades of stresses and strain

I jump high, pluck a leaf from a tree
  You twirl about and fall into me
Shops seem so tiny and quaint
  Proprietors honest, without taint

We stop at the drugstore for a soda
  Seated high atop spin-around stools
Two straws but just one chocolate phosphate
  ~ Puppy lovers who play by the rules

Premium Member The Square

Sitting on the very old court house square
New bank facility on the corner
Massive structure, commanding, once bare
This square once small stores center

People came to shop, talk, and visit
Some would go to the corner drug store
From the fountain get a shake and sit
Now that drugstore is torn down, no more

The grand hotel on another corner
Beautiful brick simple design square
Non-operational now vacant
In limbo waiting for revival

A Walk On the Lower East Side

Past the bodegas 
the House of Sages 
    Past the children playing 
in the yard 
Past the drugstore 
     chains
Past the basketball 
hoops - - which remind 
    me 
of a class at Brooklyn College 
Past the ice cream trucks 
   and the kosher bakery 
Past the supermarkets 
   Hearing people 
discuss old politics 
   I head to my home 
The Lower East Side 
    seeing my friends, avoiding my enemies 
   Looking for peace - as night falls  
        on Losaida - my home on the Lower East Side

Scientific Method

Hypothesis:
     Hurt is
     Whether you want it
     Or not

Experimental Design:
     In whatever a day is
     And while appearing sane
     I will work my way through
     One bottle of drugstore scotch
     One nickel bag of back alley weed
     One 10-year-old’s scrip of Ritalin

Results:
     Scotch hurts
     And I want a dime of weed 
     And a grown-up’s scrip for Vicodin

Conclusion:
     Hypothesis proven - 
          But damn
          I don’t care anymore
