Miami Nights
Calypso music plays;
Hips and arms sway to the beat,
Hearts melt in the heat....

At Miami mall
People eat at the food court 
Enjoying their meal
While half the mall is closed
And the anchors waste...

a moon was made of 
things sent from God up above 
which was with His love

Texas versus Miami.
Glad that SDSU won.
Sad that K State and
Gonzaga lost....

Route 66ish No 17

John, a young guy from Miami
Had legs just a little bit gammy,
He would quite often fall
When he shopped in the mall
And land with a 'whomp' on his fanny!...

Poor girl, she had breasts that were tiny
Quite squeezable though
And wouldn't you know 
She also possessed a very tiny heinie...

There was a Black Cat in Miami

There was a Black Cat in Miami
Whose owners were told he’s Siami
But he’s just a Black Cat
Nothing special about that
Disappointed those folks of Miami...

His ability to leap tall buildings was uncanny
Going up was no sweat
Coming down posed a threat
His body filled every nook and cranny...

A moon manikin;
Yellow and round as ever
And I so clever.

Ho, ho.

In reference to Moon over Poet Destroyer,
not Miami.

On the second  Punxsutawney Phil could not be found
Appears he had abandoned his hole in the ground
But they found a note
He was going by boat
Seems the stress was too much; he was Miami bound...

The sand was hot
  as she came up behind me singing…

 “You put the ‘Man’ 
   back in Romance
                
  “And I’ll put the ‘Lay’ 
    back in Lady”

(Miami Beach Florida: May, 1982)...

Whined a perky young songstress from Miami
"I think I am deserving of that Grammy!
I do not sound especially great
But my lungs, they surely do inflate
Frankly, no one sings 'Candy Man' like Sammy."

Once knew a brave fellow from Miami
His ability to leap tall buildings was uncanny
Going up was no sweat
Coming down posed a threat
Sadly he landed and crushed his poor nanny

Look-see, participant power, please.

I live amongst powers, looksee.
The eternal god, protects me.
All the rights, ticker.
Good stuff now....

New Orleans Saints Win The Superbowl!!



The Saints struck down the Colts
Like a great big lightning bolt
Miami drowned in black and gold
New Orleans won the Superbowl

To all the Who Dat Nation...

February 5th,
Two thousand and seven
Saw you the other day
Daydreaming as I lay
Chicken dancing in heaven.
Wintry Miami morning
Woke up to wet grey
Unlocked my imagination
Took you out to play.
Happens every 5th...
...Happens everyday....

GLOBE WARMING    BRING IT ON 


Closing down sales in fur-coat shops
Polar bears amble past Madison Avenue bus
Miami people swim to work

Fry bacon free on sidewalks and building-tops
Rush for sunblock of  4000-plus  
Ice-cream for dessert?  That’s a perk...

An overweight lady named Annie
Has got an absurdly large fanny
Since she boarded a plane
That is destined for Spain
She's wedged in the seat in Miami!

Thanks to Andrea for helping me with the meter for this one
