Premium Member Jello Love

White puffs of goodness.
Whip cream in love with jello.
Cold, jiggling flavor, 
Topped with foaming nothingness,
Yielding to gel's surrender.

Jello Shots

A man swallowed Jello shots
Then fell on some cooking pots
He was burnt and scolded
He fell against the wall
Looked like he was doing some squats

JELLO SHOT

This man assumed he was hot
After swallowing a strong Jello shot
His head starts to spin
And he ran like the wind
Until he fell in a parking lot

hello jello, this is Psappho

when jelly is both jelly and wall
wall simultaneously wall and jelly 
a point for nail to enter piercing, stall
lucidity inconceivable to a machiavelli

Marshmellow skirting
Lip smacking

Premium Member As Scary As Jello

I remember well when I’d had enough
Used to scream a lot, I thought I was tough
   But now that I have mellowed
   I’m as scary as jello
With the bark and the bite of a creampuff

Premium Member Jello Days

Jello days
Under unsure clouds.
Maybe a drop drops.
People ruin you and make you melt.
I am half machine and half soft warm things that leak.
Never mind cynicism and doubt.
Get real, y'all.
Someone is serving jello.

Premium Member Applesauce and Jello

I never did like applesauce 
And can’t stand either jello
Mushed up apples turn me off
And jello wiggles in my throat 

I prefer to eat solid food
Crave that crunch or chew
What foods do you crave too
What does it say about you

Jello Heart

So good at going through the motions 
Lose my wits when im with you
You flush my cheeks
and grab my hand
Foggy eyes I fall for you
Twisted ankles you got me stationed 
Here I'll stand 
Just hold my hand
Jello heart
Salt and tangles
You got me here, my love in chambers
Locked up at ease just as you please

Premium Member Mom Jello Rules

Green Jello with cottage cheese
Days of my youth
Unwritten law it has to be green
Or you cannot add the cottage cheese
Mom’s rule

Red Jello with bananas
Days of my youth
Unwritten law it has to be red
Or you cannot add the banana circles
Mom’s rule

Orange Jello with shredded carrots
Days of my youth
Unwritten law it has to be orange
Or you cannot add the shredded carrots
Mom’s rule

Premium Member Juggle Jams and Jiggle Jello

Hiya, howdy, hey, and hello.
Juggle jams and jiggle jello.
Jumping joyfully, and jolly,
try it in a tram or trolley.

Happy, hopping, silly stomping,
rollicking and rowdy romping,
bouncing, bubbly butterscotch,
hilarious, howling, hot hopscotch.  

Lofty leaping, crazy creeping,
slipping, sliding, squawking, squeaking,
Care for cookies, candies, or cakes?
Such silly sounds, for heaven's sakes.

Jello For the Neighbors

Take my name
deface it
make it taboo
break every letter in half
my last name too.
grab my middle name
laugh at it
throw it down stream!
make the alphabet forget
how it arranged to spell me.
my name is not me!
it does not explain my person
it labels me for labeling
and defines me by the surface.
a more simple version
would be
knowing each other by emotions.
but we left our shores
and started wars
lost compassion in the ocean.

Diamond of Jello

Diamond of Jello


From my stool in the diner I watch 
the old woman with elm tree arms
command the big booth in back

and roar for a menu, 
take a half hour to read it
before placing her order.

Watching her eat, I realize 
life for her is a dollop of whip cream, 
a twirling ballerina, on a diamond of Jello.

I raise my water glass 
in a silent toast. Bravo, I whisper. 
I wish her good cheer.

No Dessert With a Broken Wrist

I can’t believe today that I broke my wrist!
And I can’t push the button for the cream that’s whipped
How am I to eat an ice cream sundae?
Without that white topping that brings it thunder
And what am I to do when I want some jello?
Cause on top of that dessert whip cream is stellar
Oh woe is me now that I broke my wrist!
I can’t get the cap off since it needs a twist 
Maybe I can borrow you for this?
Then together we can dream of ice cream bliss

Premium Member mamas green jello

When mama made her famous green Jello dessert
We knew something big was about to happen to our family.
Sometimes it was company like Great-Grandma’s sister, Gert.
Other times it meant we were getting another baby.

Tonight we walked in and saw it and I saw Daddy look tough.
He probably is tired of children, sixteen is probably enough.
It’s not Gert again, is it? He asked with a weary long sigh.
Mama shook her head no and said “It’s your uncle Cy.”
