Lovely Lithe Lively Lemurs

lovely lithe lively lemurs
languishing lovingly lengthwise
laboriously lightening our loads
laughing in lemur-like linguistics

lovely lacksidasical loving lemurs
letting loose leeches live
living lemur-like lightness
lollygagging in lemur-like ways

The past

Recreating the mid seventies
With the Delfonics
Alive and Kicking
Snafu and String Driven Thing
Bedsitter land imagined
on the suburbia lengthwise
red duvets changed frequently

It seems so damn unfair
to live in the past
and today
the songs don't have rhythm
tattooed bards
by the wayside
so waif like
sing out their DNA

Zip Ties

Big cheer
Truck’s here!

My prize:
Zip ties!

Breadthwise,
Lengthwise,
Right size:
Deep sighs.

Like sands:
Thousands

Advise,
Good buys

No lies,
Blue skies!

UV?
We’ll see

Tie things
sans strings

Real tough
Hand cuff

Threat bind;
Kids mind

Not true,
Kid you!

Sides clutch,
LOL much!

I say,
Good day!

Notes

Bastardizations of a good night;
Sullen moonlight pours recklessly through blinds,
Sickened stomach turns,
Eyes rill and flutter egg-white visions.

Shuffle:
I am a joint rolled from Bible paper,
A blood blister in a hemopheliacs mouth. 
Deal:
You are an inkstain of poetical nonsense,
A burst pipe running lengthwise through brain matter:

The entire ****ing world.

Cold Case: A Missing Hour of Afternoon

I step out from a second-story window,
float along roads of slow-churning lullabies,
raptured in response to ice cream truck’s bellow.
A clear case of cold sugar—wide gumball eyes,
mobile memories wrapped in coats of corn-snow
hugged around a wood hourglass of time lengthwise,
waiting to be licked clean, gently insisting
that day pay its weight, in words worth frozen cream.

Zen Mode

looping our form lengthwise over back along our spine rising straight to crown dipping to third eye along nose to chin jugular notch and heart our navel, sacral and below reconnecting with spine at root our pranic energy grid pulsates forming a seamless bliss band of vibrant magnetic electricity branching off all along form that each cell be enlivened by Divine Mother’s caress as benedictions divine

Word-Worker

Word-Worker

Thee procurement and collection
Of this smattering of letters
No matter your predilection
For future employment of type setters
To criss and cross all the tees and eyes
Paying close attention to the prose
Transcribing thine inner reflections width and lengthwise
In all subsequent rows
By paying out the aforementioned
It may be held in contention
That without future authorship; I would be un-pensioned.

Banana Split

A banana split can be a work of art. With the fruit cut lengthwise in half is where we start. Three scoops of our favorite ice cream go on top. Whatever flavor, use the cream of the crop. On each scoop go toppings of pineapple, chocolate, and strawberry. Above that go generous mounds of whipped cream and a cherry. A split is good enough to change the most dour personality. Serve up this treat, and see them become merry.

Sunrise Greets Dawn

Pick One of Five 6-21-25  Image #1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunrise Greets Dawn

Sunrise greets dawn first lights arise
To the beat of unfolding wings
Masking misty azurine skies
Sunrise greets dawn.

Across still water swan chants sing
Bathed in glories of the sunrise
Rosy ballads for morning ring.

Bands of silver steel run lengthwise
Bridging midnight and dawn’s dayspring
Pink aurora turns from moonrise
Sunrise greets dawn.
