Rain whispering 
in the gutter -
gossip passed along
its length all night
until finally being 
silenced 
by the downpipe.

A burning desire
Sodom became ash for lust
Strewn in the gutter

No one desrved it
Like Mrs. Lot, for looking back
Her salt is preserved

A channel for water -
but if your mind’s IN it,
you might be a rotter.
One who lives in squalor
may very well end up
in it as a squatter!

On the market for peanut butter
He blew their savings
On foodie cravings
And they ended up in the gutter

Teachers know some liars will sputter
And judges know liars will mutter
But truth be told
Some are quite bold
Donald Trump will lie in the gutter!

perfect blooms,
destined for dinner with a friend,
they were meant for the table
but alas she was unable to attend

was heavily drunk as

A drainpipe full of leaves
fallen like every dream,
as time silently thieves 
moments of happiness,
gifting melancholy

every nook and cranny downtown 
don't high tale it to the gutter 
six feet under in the ground

A girl with her mind in the gutter
Did not know why her heart would flutter
A priest came along
Who knew what was wrong
And showed her the way to churn butter

understanding life was hard
expecting no perks or prizes

childhood dreams of fame
tossed into reality gutter
keen on country living

thinking to myself "This is debauchery!".
Take a gutter stub
and light it back up,
seeing how a slow death be your fancy!

Bowl the ball forward; not back
Someone's leg you just might crack!
Someone's ball is in the gutter?
Oh the things people will mutter!
Hoping you have the knack!

Listen to poem:
A torrent of words pounds
on roof of mind inclined
to shed them out of bounds,
aligning them to file,
like sheep through sorting gates,
to ripple poem's sounds.

Trump met a girl from the gutter
Who set his heart all aflutter
But she was a chooser
Who called him a loser
Trump really needs a new putter!

Slippery slide


An indigent man from Calcutta
Would bathe once a week in some butter
A slippery mistake
He walked over a grate
And forever was lost down the gutter

amused I am
by the sieve 
of a mid-city wannabe drunk
through which but a single
narcissistic gutter-rat apparition
can pass --

Trump's America

The Stock Market says, "Give me a flutter"
For the fastest way down to the gutter
Our streets are not gold
Your soul will be sold
But at least you can eat peanut butter!

Sunrise or sunset

Love the rest

Open eye's look

A gutter crook

GOD in heaven

Never work on seven

Beauty of life

One note - a fife.

Drunk In Love

Sink in me 
Get drunk with me 
Until am all you see 
As you relax in the gutter 
Of my arms where you sleep 
And am still your bartender 
Still giving you love so tender

Butterfly Wings Flutter and Flutter

Butterfly Wings Flutter and Flutter

Butterfly has been in gutter, 
But still will flutter and flutter;
Flowing,
While growing;
Sounds like wings did stutter.
