Short Gi Poems

ain't no Hogan's Heroes
nor any G.I. Joes
in  reality
war is a pity...

Little copper seeds
Precious jewel from the East
Balanced blood sugar
Mucilage for the GI
Great healing with fenugreek...

A GI looking for nookie
Met a Geisha girl called Suki
Would you believe
She could conceive 
Faster than a New York bookie?...

You really can’t blame Barbie dolls
For always ignoring Ken’s calls
For it’s obvious that
The poor kid was flat
And GI Joe had all the balls...

A nice warm teacup
     Aromatic and healing
           Good inside and out
                 Skin, GI, hair, and oral
                        A sweet blast of lemongrass...

I think of childhood birthdays when
‘another year’ was always cool;
it meant a party, action men* -
and, best of all, a day off school.

*like GI Joe

Take Offense With Trump

With bleeding audience take offense, 
Especially Trump's who appear to be dense. 

I can't believe he doesn't even support the GI Bill. 
Without it I never could have gone to college.

jab tairi yaad ki her shakl badal jaey gi
tairi aawaz bhi jab dil sai na takraey gi
phir darakhtoo mei koee phool khilai ga k nahei
mee mei phir koee dabai paaoo chalai ga k nahei
janai phir dil ye maira dil bhi rahai ga k nahei...

Twenty thousand people watch him, the announcer says, " all eyes on him."
The crowd's so silent you can hear a pin drop.
Better yet two beyblades from fifty yards away.
What's his next move?

Nobody knows what goes on in his head....

GIVE ME A HOG     by keith

Gimme a hog
Make it low to the ground
Gimme a hog
So I can get around
Gimme a hog
‘cause they’s the dope
Gimme a hog
One like the pope.
Gimme a hog
Make it all nice and shiny
Gimme a hog
So I can haul some hiney...

Waiting for the train
Holding the chain,
Boldly at the pain,
Waiting for the train,
No pain, no gain!
To look at the romance of nature,
Outside, it's cold,
That i can't hold,
But, still waiting,
I have to train my mind,
With the truth,
And be patient.

1972, Cam Thanh 
her envelope is perfumed and fancy 
an exquisite calligraphy with a flair
exuberant scrolled letters showing her personality
tiny hearts and stars at return address
Young G.I. leans back and smiles, 
remembering his carefree life
before he ended up in this coconut forest
in Viet Nam...

HERO’S RETURN

His childhood sweetheart shyly awaits him
Her GI boy
Home at last
Mother
Though
Can’t
Hold back
Siblings too
Hoping to find
His canvas bag stuffed full of Hershey Bars

Magic Tragic David Blaine 
Goodwill, gallant, Grade A G.I. Jane
Gorgeous, guarding, germane, Great Dane
Bubba borrowed Brad’s baseball bat 
Hit him harshly hard in the head  
Insane in the brain 
Like being high on sugar cane 
To dilute the pain 
Hey, it may sound lame 
But who’s to blame 
Not everyone’s the same...

I shaved my head again today
I     G.I. Janed my mane


Once again
       they'll be calling me Sinead


time to scrape off the femininity
wash that guy off of me
and me from me


       And pray for rain!


Cuz nothin's more titillating 
than the gentle pitter patter
of raindrops
falling
on your head

Lay me down on the serenity of your heart,
for, it's you that I longed from the start. 
Let me taste the bounty of your grace
like a child that longs for your embrace. 

Touch me like a flower in winter snow. 
Let me be roused by the warmth of your glow. 
For, without you, I am lost in the dark
like a light that glows without spark.

The girl cousins were in charge of the boys
the boys wanted to stand up but were scared
Girls ordered them about as if they were toys

The GI Joes went to grandpa, their grievances heard
He understood they were in quite a whirl
Henpecked grandpa did as much as he could

Diabolic plan readily unfurls
from the female cousins who taught the males
at an early age to stay away from bossy girls...

Kintsukuroi (KInt-soo-gi) is a Japanese art form…it is ancient…very old…it consists of repairing broken pottery with little bits of gold.

The idea is a simple one…innocent at it’s core
Where something that’s been broken can come back more beautiful than before.

It is a wonderful lesson…how something broken can be more beautiful…and new
It’s a lesson, if I’m not mistaken, that applies to people too....

Raat guzray gi tu rakh layna bharam ajj kay baad
Hum na ayen gay kabhi shehar main teray ajj kay baad
 
Woh teray sheroon aur gazloon main mera khoo sa jana
Ab na parh payen gay dewan teray ajj  kay baad,
 
Mujh ko lafzoon main saja kay jo kabhi likhy thay
Honthoon pay woh geet na ayen gay teray ajj kay baad
 
Sham aye gi tu pher chand bhi batlay ga hamain
Woh na jhankay ga kbhi ghar main teray ajj kay baad....

He : What's with your Gi?

You need to loosen up your bits

Rock * paper * scissors


G.I.-Joe is all covered in snow.
Lucky Jane cut a metal show.
One- two- three-
The same game as me!
Who's that tie breaker, John doe?

Shelter me with paper above.
Rocks of salvation with love.
Blessing from heaven 
Is it 12 disciples or eleven?
Scissors I'm dreaming of~

Rocks bring to much grief
Turn over a new leaf
I found a new plan
Hold the paper in your hand
Find the page of belief.

I lay in my jacuzzi 
It's called a bed 
Not a watery grave
Many views this j e n e z a casket gives
People are in view  k i f o  sleeps 
Death reaps, life seeps
I look at your eyes open
Mercy's hoping
M a c h o w a z i  GI za darkness lays 
Angels and Humanity prays
Ku w e k a m a c h o w a z i  eyes open 
Kifo death sleeps 
K u l a l a k u w e k a sleeps lay eyes open
I was once lost and broken
Now I'm saved and spoken
