Hats off,
Abusive son of a ---,
Better drop dead,
Before she drops him....

Bumbling along in my jumpsuit and clod hoppers
A sight to behold, a fashion statement for shoppers
Stylish and appealing
For the elderly beings
Reminds me of the days when I was a big bopper...

In Memoriam: Owen the Pheasant
Lost at an auction in Vermont betwixt a first edition Anna Karenina and a bitter divorcée named Ruth. 


There once was a pheasant named Owen,
whose plumage was splendid and showin’.

Shackled in chains,

And an orange jumpsuit He came,

Shuffling into court.


His name was called,

and he stood to face his shame,

All eyes upon him.


Held in his hand,

A crumpled sheet of paper.

He opened to read.


He poured forth,

his failures and pains,

with alcohol.


The judge said.

"Sounds like a Jekyl and Hyde thing."

"I sentence you..........."

Pineapple kangaroo jumpsuit
I know where is he going with this
just bare with me
i uttered these words and kissed my wife

Poems stealing words for life
Music twirls alone on the dance floor
So i have invented my own language
with only 3 words
no one else has heard it
only you
Then i showed her this page
and her face brought the clouds closer...

It isn’t being used.
Cosmetics in my make-up drawer
Are equally confused.

My pocketbook forlornly sits,
Sure it’s been left behind.
My brand-new jumpsuit in the closet’s
Crowded and confined.

My MetroCard and cash are tucked
Inside my wallet’s folds,
Perplexed at never leaving,
Stuck inside their stuffy holds.

I must be going crazy
Thinking ‘bout these lifeless things
But when boredom is the way of life,
Some merriment it brings....
