Short Guam Poems

I paced as the coffee brewed
To one spot Sully stayed glued
"Dad where is my mom?"
She was held in Guam
Because her pug nose was skewed...

There it was loud on the intercom
“Please come to the office, Tom’
And just like a bad sitcom
They dropped the bomb
No discussion just a blunt axiom
Told to grab his pompom
And march off to Guam
To retrieve a precious rhomb
Tom was in quite a conundrum
So he went home and chanted Om

Chitterlings

China calls them feichang
Children hold their noses
Chicharrón down on Guam
Chunchule in Chile
Chew them up with hot sauce
Chunks of pig intestines
Chitlins cookin’ at home

MY LIFE

Born in Dublin on Saint Patrick's Day
School; spelling champ; steady girl
Senior Prom; graduation; went away
Air Force career; traveled the world

Turkey; Germany; England; Japan
Korea; Vietnam; Philippines; Guam
Austria; Hawaii; Azores; Alaska; all grand
Thirty eight contiguous states fit the plan

Fully retired  --  more to be told  --  stay tuned

Strings

	The night is still young
But by these strings I am strung,
	Life is so guam 
Constraints seem so long,
	The puppet master controls me
As he tries to wear me down He tolls me,
	He tries to wear me down
For His voice is in the near background,
	Cut these connective wires
And sell them to the highest do buyer,
	Free the marionette
Now singularity off are all bets,
	It now today has worth
For It really has had Its new birth.
