A Gallon
“Gas: below three bucks a gallon!”
The media’s gleefully howlin’
-	But let’s not forget
-	They’re screwin’ us yet
If it’s over a buck, they’re a felon!...

The Sizes of Lonely
Lonely comes in three sizes
The pint is light and floats near you
The quart you must hold in your lap
But, the gallon is unliftable
   and it blocks all sunny paths...

Good Living
Give me a log cabin, cooking over a campfire
                        Birds, bears and other critters for the population
                    Heaven on Earth, a five gallon bucket full of good living...

Premium Member Love Turn Bitter
Submission so complete and fragile like nylon
Love so new, constantly refreshed in the salon
such virtue suffers the kill
creating a devastating skill
for guts to replace passion and fill the gallon....

Helen Pattinson
I look after a lady named Helen

      Whom I bring roses by the gallon,

      They make her smile
     and feel better for a while.

      Now her room smells like the very best salon!

Premium Member A Gallon of Coffee
The hours tick off
    I know every one

  Familiar their chimes
    until the day dawns...
   
  Crawl out of bed in the morning
    though not 'good as new'
  A gallon of coffee ~
    may yet see me through...

Premium Member Cancer Takes Every Ounce of Strength
A cup of courage
Would not be enough
A gallon of courage?
Not even a start
We need a room full of courage
So we enlist our friends, relatives and church family
Because cancer takes every ounce of strength we have...

Dripping
Remember that time
you bought a gallon
of cherry juice--

And didn't
have the decency
to pour it into
a cup

Of course-- it fell

From the hand less bodies
reaching

-- amiss

I couldn't help but notice..
all the cracks it filled....

Spreading the Seed
Soon he'll come with salty sums,
By the gallon--by the ton!
Instinct decrees he spread the seed-
Nothing else could be more fun!

A Rain of white blinds my sight,
Unless, of course, I swallow...
And I'm certain I just might-
Do it all again tomorrow!...

Standard Issue
Standard Issue,
Seventy-five years,
Standard Issue,
A gallon of tears,
Standard Issue,
A tattered heart,
Standard Issue,
Many a new start
Standard Issue,
Salad days,
Standard Issue,
Old age mental haze,
Standard Issue,
Hope, sweet, sweet hope,
Not so standard,
Enough Faith to cope....

take control
be tough
cowgirl

strap on those six-guns
silver spurs
and leather
cowboy chaps

throw on the saddle
and ten-gallon cowboy hat
mount him slowly
and keep it steady
there now

speed it up
pull back hard
and ride him rough
be tough
cowgirl

Online Colonoscopy
It's time to
Test the new
The latest in
Technology

No more need
To drink over a
Gallon of foul
Liquid or any

Sorts of pills
To sort through
In fact it's 
Almost

Like a drive thru
Butt in your own
Home butt it's
A bit more

Complicated with
Software butt
What's worse
Is the hard

Drive...

My Restless Pillow
My Restless Pillow 

 
Crying in my pillow,

my limbs hanging 

as feeble and limp

as a weeping willow.

 

Drowning my sorrows

 in mounds of raspberry 

stuffed cheesecake phyllo,

running from my regretful 

days in ten gallon hat Texas,

when I spent my days

walking with the gray armadillo.....

Premium Member lets talk Stegosaurus brain
the stegosaurus was thirty-feet long
this is as long as a person's large front porch
How big do you suppose her brain was?
As big as a full thirty-nine gallon garbage bag?
The size of a small midsized sedan?
Believe this or not, this huge creature’s brain was….
the size of a small walnut, weighing two and a half ounces....

Premium Member You Asked About Coffee
I do not drink it from a jug
    I do not drink it from a mug

  I do not drink it with a bug
    I do not drink it with a slug

  I like to drink it with a hug
    I like to drink it when I'm snug

  So, when you're ready, tug my suit
    We'll down that gallon
      ~ Then we'll boot


    ~ Suess on the Loose! ~...

Premium Member Back Towards the Sun
At twelve miles per gallon 
in mid-June Arlington 
the man stopped for fuel 
ignoring his malfeasant
twelve-year-old son.

Six billion ants retreat
underground under duress 
the sharp gaze of a boy 
and his looking glass, the son 

of a man wiping sweat 
off his brow under duress  
from solar deliverance.

Fearless In My Dreams.
Fearless in my Dreams

Fearless in my Dreams

I will climb the highest mountains. 
Sail across the deepest oceans. 
Fly through the greatest storms. 
Jump of any cliff that I have been warned. 
Run into any forest fire. 
Take on any Animal you desire. 
I’m ten foot tall and Bullet Proof. 
One gallon of Jim Beam and watch me Move....

One day to a big ranch rode Alan
a wearin’ his hat, a ten-gallon.
With his horse and his rope
he had plenty of hope
he’d excel in the job of corralin’.
