You left me empty;
Running on nothing but pain
And leftover love....

lightning wrapped in mercury,

Don't be end at leftover
Care to check first glance....

A dog waits for leftover crumbs
Christmas Day's early cafe...

Power and its greed ...

        Often drains humanity -

                Leaving a bare seed....

Ugly
Stormed the cloud
Rammed locomotion
Dashed the leftover of hope
Hideous

Turkey & ham terrine
with tagiliatelle
coconut curry
a blue cheese dressing
a christmess pudding
leftover
Sweet!...

In the wooden bowl
Persimmons on the table
Next to the fruit cake
Half eaten on a large plate
Leftover cheese and crackers...

They burn lots of foods;
sells leftover at high rates.
Fear from mighty Lord.

A big bowl of treats by the door
Is impossible to ignore
When the kids have gone
I eat a bon bon
Which turns into maybe one more...

Sequel in nature
Sowed in spring
Ripen with summer
And fall’s harvest
Eaten by winter 

The leftover 
Seeds 
For the next sequel...

bricks spent in Spring
a scant leftover
azure blue surplus

"dishwater soup"


before the soap
take the scraps
from the plate

place in a pot
fill with water
and bring to

a boil for
tomorrow's
leftover meal...

Good to have morning-after greet ya
With gourmet coffee and cold pizza.
If leftover guests are crashed on floor,
Give 'em a slice, and show 'em the door....

As I walk
These winding roads
I look down
A leftover of
Childhood
When I stepped on a frog
Its guts came out
Ever since then
I watch out 
Where I put my feet...

Leftover dreams 
aimless look for resolution;
Leftover dreams 
flicker with technicolor streams;
Salvation perhaps destruction,
they beg now for absolution;
Leftover dreams....

Thank you, our noble turkey
Unselfishly nourishing
Reveling above tofurkey
Keening song full flourishing
Elevating meager meal
Yielding leftover appeal...

Sip of my life from the brown paper bag. 
  
Brown like down town, or clear 
  
like tap water, it doesn't 
  
f*ckIng matter, I'll drink it. 
  
I'll drink the swill from leftover 
  
cans at community college parties....

no one may enter and
no one may leave but here
no one is a stranger

the leftover bread of feasts
tossed out onto the street
claimed by birds and beggars

a generous host should know
that any wall is only as tall
as its watchman...

Do the best in all you do
With all your strenght and skill
Let your work be clean and true
Giving your heart and will
Using your time wisely too
With none leftover to kill
So at the end of your working day
Your work is worth your pay...

It seems at least one dorm room is the dwelling of a bum.
		I visited my son and saw big piles of grungy clothes.
                leftover fast food, open garbage--things a mother loathes!
		Sloppy sons so seldom seek to scour sickening scum....

When eating leftover dressing
That was a good main course for lunch
Only compliment  receiving
You could patent this honeybunch

He forgot potato salad
Left it out of his extra praise
What Rocky did say nots valid
For he was in a state of craze...
