typical writing day...

They sound very similar
they are in no way twins
one is sweet
one is a sin...

absence of darkness in no way guarantees light ~ merely offers hints

Thelonius Monk
we must credit with the first ever Tomahawk Dunk
in between riffs
he was in no way discouraged by his occasional whiffs....

I’m in no way prejudiced she said
But that one is white and that one is mixed
Skin color prominent in her head
Always remarking on it; her mind fixed...

Read More

With roots in hell,
beware her spell.
Poison to sell,
keeping you well.

Masking the pain,
in no way sane.
Frying the brain,
life down the drain....

Beast will not become a charming prince
Sleeping beauty will not be woken up by a kiss
Alibaba will not find a fortune in a cave
In no way is life a fairy tale...

Come and stay we urged them.
We’ll have a blast!
We did not have blast.
They came two days too early.
We were prepared in no way.
Worst visit ever.
Last one also....

Iridescent sea glass is spit out onto warm sand
Without fanfare, no spokesperson, no brass band
Milky creamy beach rocks, in no way bland
Stacked in a gorgeous pile, rocks polished and fanned....

“Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day…”
Sonnet 18 by Shakespeare

when I behold you my dear
I see it so very clear
that in no way
do you resemble a summers day!

Today is a great day.

I've smiled today.
Loved all the way.
Laughed without pain.
Suffered in no way.
Everything is great.

Yet I'm still afraid.
Tomorrow may not
bring another great
day my way....

Eager enthusiasm jumping in puddles
Laughing her exuberance
Adoring the whispers 

Splashes of rain 
Shining rainbow truth
Amid the spring drizzle

Clouds in no way
Dimming the sheer genius
of April...

Hyena the ringmaster with a hidey hidey ho
We gawkers love the enthusiasm that you always show
Your ways are loud and proud, but in no way overdone.
Proving to us circus folk that ring-mastering can be fun!...

childish and childlike 
in no way similar except for spelling
Yet they often get thrown together as similar
by ignoramuses who do not understand
one is a compliment 
while the other has a mean connotation....

found this notebook today
It had six poems
unrecognizable
but written by my hand
not unlike most other days
my personas keeping secrets from each other
I am in no way surprised I recognize none of it
my usual...

heavily haggard Helena’s haphazard hilarity of harmony
homogenized her humble habitat, in no way hampering her
humanitarian handicap. Hazy harshness hastened
a heartening of her highness’s high hopes for humanity....

Where is that girl with the bird nest they said.
I thought this was odd, and it was right on her head.
I want one too, I yelped, as did the rest of the class.
It was adorable, so beautiful, in no way ugly or crass....

When she was young she was her own critic, bad.
She had a stormy face and tried to always be mad.
She thought her world was awful, and was determined to be sad
Now she is older, frumpy and grumpy, and in no way happy or glad....

I'm in no way an artist.
My eyes burning.
But my tears are the paint, 
Lashes the brush,
My bed sheets the canvass.
My eyes burn.
Tears flood.
Mind shut.
While the painting unfolds in front of me. 
A timeline of such.......

Dragon keeps his eye on herder girl who cares for the sheep
He pretends to slumber, but he is in no way asleep.
The sheep are heading up the mountain, it is ungodly steep
He hears the little ones making mewing sounds; one makes a bleep...

She leads the fur and the feathers toward the ultimate end
They are in no way worried, for she is the quintessential friend.
We watch them fly, flutter, flit and flock around this wise one.
I decide to join them eventually, for they are having such fun!...

Her bones were
desolate, cold, unfruitful

Her body was
unproductive, despicable, empty,
isolated, untended, unloved, barren

She stood alone under generations of highly motivated producers
Watiting for a moment that never arrived.
Chosen in no way by no one....

A fantastic duo quite rare
In no way can these two be square
What makes Jim's heart wilt?
It's Deb who is well built
With C cups that cause men to stare

A very intelligent guy
Jim knows how age to defy
His love Deb he keeps 
Only with her he sleeps 
Though many he could satisfy

We’d already beaten Japan
But the A-bomb was Truman’s plan
To tell Russian reds
We’ll cut you to shreds
And that’s how the Cold War began

We flashed two targets civilian
And killed point two of a million
Of sub-human trash
Just burned into ash
But we’re in no way reptilian...
