Premium Member The Man With a Bad Spine
There once was a man named Kline
Who fretted about his spine

The doctor seemed nice
But had to say twice

"Don't sleep in the tree of mine!"...

The Moniker Mystery
He fretted some how, her name to disclose
This lass with a scent as sweet as a rose
Not such a hard task
He just had to ask
So the answer was right under his nose!...

Premium Member As the Train Leaves the Station
She 
rides the 
slow slide of 
her guitar blues
knife ‘gainst fretted strings of pain and pleasure

with hours to kill on train of love in vain
fields of fireflies 
find their groove -
songstress 
burns...

Premium Member The Lonely Guitar
My friend’s lying in bed with six strings attached
Yearning for a bond with my calloused fingers,
Gazing at my hands so dull and detached,
Glued to the ceiling while his butt lingers. 
Days passed by and his fretted bridge was snatched,
Snatched by some hands of some sick soulless singer....

Premium Member Storms
The shrewd gulls fretted and flew,
veered inland to avoid the storm.
Some strutted over spiky rocks,
others flew low over the sea,
occasionally swooping into the cold
rough sea below, foraging
for tasty salty fish.
But when the storm was over,
they just flew up and ventured
to blustery pastures new.

Pretend Marriage

  As kids we'd chalk a house plan on the street
  and pretend to be grown up families, parroting
  what we saw in our parents raising us, their kids.
  We smoked cigarettes and had happy hour at night.

  We entertained our friends and drank and fretted.
  The women gossiped and we husbands talked work.
  We all grew bored and decided to never grow up.
  Rain erased the chalk but we'd glimpsed our futures....

Bachelor Day
Bachelor Day 
It was father’s day he got up early and 
drink coffee near the phone just in case
his daughter rang.

Then it was afternoon and he must have
fallen asleep and he fretted if the phone
had rung and he hadn’t heard it. 

He went into the kitchen but left the living
room door open, he had a ham sandwich 
which he ate by the phone.

It was now evening and she was not ringing
how could she a product of his wishes, 
childless man, she was a figment of your dreams....
