Across the Border

Cinco de mayo, 
Fourth of July-o, 
The whole enchilada will do.
Pie in the sky-o, 	
Cleveland Ohio,
Ciudad Mexico, too.

1.29 plus tax

hour glass countdown
quadruple meltdown
she keeps her lamp burning
but it's illegal

Online Dating

Pinned hearts marked the origin of familiar narrative, of strangers' exploration for outside alternative.

Premium Member What to do on May 5th

Since Mexico cast off the French
Make sure a Corona to clench
And forgo the Merlot
On Cinco de Mayo
But buy beer which can a thirst quench

Warmth of Similarity

You remind me of a synchronized play of violins
Soothing to the vibrations they play
Your touch is the rhythm of a string 
hold me gently with similarity

Galileo's Disgust

There once was an astronomer Galileo,
Who was never particularly fond of mayo.
It reminded him too much of sunscreen,
Of which he was not particularly keen.

Premium Member Me Oh Mayo

Me and my friends down from Ohio

Just paying them back for what I owe

A little salt and lime

Plus three shots at a time 

Another drunk Cinco de Mayo

Premium Member Mayo the Rabbit

Mayo the rabbit has a very strange habit,
but he isn’t a monk or a nun.
He spreads out on ham, lettuce, cheese, bacon, spam
that’s been sliced up and placed in a bun.

From top to top
     of hills we skip,
And back again we came,
Hand in hand and
     Toe to tip,
Now we feel the same.

These thoughts to you
     My friend I send,
We always met befor the end.

Premium Member A Mayo Clinic

A much-neglected condiment is mayonnaise
    for its smooth, creamy flavor, I give it 'all A's'

  It perks up a sandwich more than ketchup and mustard
    and even on desserts, it can outduel custard

Bipolar

BIPOLAR
Buoyant joyful spirits
but a garb, tormented
binary mind, prey to
betraying, grave  mood swings.
Brazeness doth  give way
brusquely to despondence;
blues to sadly,  hold sway.

Where's the Damn Mayo?!

(This is a fictional poem)

My sandwich didn't have any mayo so I sent it back.
The waitress spit on it so I gave her a smack.
They put me in jail and the prisoners raped me six times.
You'd better listen when I tell you never to commit a crime.

Karma

I tie myself to you
But the ropes begin to burn our skin…
I hold you above the water,
But my grip begins to slip…
I try to save you from you’re a demons,
Though I’m a demon myself. 
My meaningful words,
That I so often come across 
Of I love you
Begin an avalanche 
Of distress and misery.

Premium Member Mayday

Almost died myself the 1st of May, 2 years ago,
Seizing as I had another death of my ego.

Flashing forwards to first 4 days of May just a year ago,
I lost a cousin all because of sins of "the ego."

Suddenly remembering my grandfather who passed 2 years ago,
I recall how he was born post-war on Cinco De Mayo.

The Pacific

The Pacific 

The ship was going down a water mountain
only to be met with another mountain and
going up and up, this dizzying dance no rest
only holding on for life hoping the Typhon 
would blow itself out.
Towards morning the see was simmering 
down leaving us to try working, but the talk 
in the mess hall was subdued.

Cinco De Mayo

Cinco de Mayo
At Mar-a-Lago
Is serving up Mexican lies

Trump welcomes us all
To pay for his Wall
In a scam each Republican buys

You know Wells Fargo
And Mar-a-Lago
Are models of integrity

Well,  that big Caravan
Is Cartel to a man
There is no true refugee! 

So forget the backlash
Just send Trump your cash
For a Wall that defines liberty!

Premium Member Pointed Fingers

Fingers are wrongly pointed in accusation
Assuming poems are written for intimidation
Voices raised in needless defense cry aloud
As they huddle and mutter among the crowd

Consider how your allegations must sound
As you toss foolish words and slurs all around
Don't defame those whose troubles you don't know
You've no reason to sow weeds where poets grow

Tasting Petals

I'm tasting the petals and hymn.
It's hard to know where to begin.
Except when my brain falls out and my hate comes in.
I'm tasting the petals and hymn.

I'm tasting the petals and hymn.
I just don't know where to begin.
This time it's my hate that's out and my brain that's in.
I'm tasting the petals and hymn.

I'm tasting the petals and hymn.

I'm tasting the petals and hymn.

Mask

A stranger
No one sees 
A mask that came to be
A different person 
Who Isn’t me 

Because of this mask 
I don’t feel free 
Trapped
Fearing no one 
Will like the real me

I feel like a stranger
So out of place
A fake smile upon my face

Outside I look fine
Even though 
I’m hurting inside

I smile when i’m sad
I laugh when I want to cry 
Because of this mask 
That I hide behind

In 1862, Mexicans were elated
As the French army was decimated
Today is Cinco de Mayo
Tacos—free Pico de gallo!
The Battle of Puebla is celebrated

Emperor Maximillian was fooled 
by the Mexicans he thought he ruled 
Carlota, the Queen, insane  
Died back in France from her pain
After a firing squad had ensued

Premium Member Cinco De Mayo Western Haiku

Celebrations galore
throughout the hemisphere
worldly delight

Bright sunny day
temperatures mild
blissful happenings

Joyous occasion
bolstering freedom
laughs and smiles

Universal principles
thorough determination
brings vivacity

The wind 
from heaven's height
filled with happiness, gaiety

Life's responsibilities
can at times
be pleasurable

Evening fosters a
delightful night
enjoying placidity
