Forks can be multi-purposed.
I keep one in my purse for emergencies.
They are good to retrieve things that slide under booths in restaurants.
Helpful to dislodge cockleburs from dog's fur
Part my hair when I am waiting for a friend at Gilly’s Café.
A fork does not pull your hair as hard as a comb.

When youre foiled first time
ply the sirens
on empathetic emergencies
your pain first dawned
like the culling of a bird
When Lions escape from their pit
wearisome statistians ponder
on the risk analysis for folk
When Pythons spoil your sleep
Slip your dreams
in airy onion bags
lunatic like
apron strings
when things go wrong

I circle life’s memories
all smiles and emergencies
a baby and a wedding
all so breath taking
a photo album collects
all my personal effects
a life and love creating
a life breath taking
images lose their colour
as vows now start to stutter
life has a way of taking
as breath starts fading
circling my dreams in a web
my life, flow and ebb

one eight-hundred NOTHING
that’s the number that you call
that charge-free line to NO ONE
when you’ve cracked a hip or fall
should you have dire emergencies
and need some schmuck to care
dial six-six-eight, four-four-six-four
it’s for sure … I WON’T be there.

Hear a siren passing by
And thank your lucky stars
Someone else’s problem
Will not cause you any scars.
For every passing ambulance
Has someone in the back –
A hit and run or overdose
Or, likely, heart attack.
You see the flashing lights go by
And hear that plaintive drone,
So fortunate that you’re not there
To hear somebody moan.
Yet every minute, every day,
Emergencies occur;
But if that siren’s not for us,
That’s what we’d most prefer.

The key got stuck inside the lock
Securing our son's door.
We turned and twisted but
It wasn't budging anymore.
The locksmith took a bit of time
But finally arrived
Since we were, from that entrance,
Most annoyingly deprived.
He nailed the problem 1 - 2 - 3
(The cylinders were jammed)
And now the door is good as new,
Just waiting to be slammed.
Emergencies are costly -
That we really can't debate
And that is why the bill's
$143 (dot) 88!

A GIFT A SONG
~~~~~~~~~~~~
latent in us all
the need to bestow a gift
of a love for life
we… heartfelt in song… praise it
endorse it… let's enact it
~~~~~
let's live together
a gift we hold… an empty box
please read the label…
for emergencies only
tis time… open… set peace free
~~~
the song of love
once silent… heartfelt passion
now sing loud… a gift
to the world of love… and peace
live and let live sing for love

Now COVID is ending, there’s cause for alarm;
The last several years, they’ve made bank on the harm.
The mandates have fallen; it seems they're all shot.
But Pfizer's a virus; it's coming in hot.
Pray for new variants? Or put life on hold?
Emergencies, fear ****: these never get old.
But maybe we've learned now: you don't mask a kid.
But when this mess started, none batted a lid.
If masking is virtue, and distancing too,
Then how will you signal when Omi is through?
