A Fishy Comparison
I can’t understand the ambition
Of people who love to go fishin’.
Outsmarting your dinner
Might say you’re a winner,
But what when you fail in that mission?...

Limerick
outsmarting dog
Dog stands in muddy wading pool
Drinking this clay-gray gruel he made
He is sitting now, immersing his body in the wetness
Knowing what he intends to do next,
I jump up and make my way to the gate...

Fat Mouse
Fat Mouse
He has scored three
me still none
He is fat
I, running out of cheese
a little critter he is
outsmarting my genius
this house
not big enough
for the both of us
the battle is on
the outcome
unknown

Snap Trap
It’s not for lack of intelligence
My inhibitor is on the fritz
A frontal lobe phenomena
I’m prone to gaffes and fits
My amygdalae are loaded
A hair trigger set to snap
Sometimes words escape me
Like rats outsmarting a trap

Winter Walks Away
Winter walks away
through spring mud
and melting snow,
face weighted in frown,
Napoleon fists unclenched
in humiliating retreat,
his Grande Armee of cold,
ice and wind
dying on their feet
utterly depleted
never to fully recover
in truth,
Winter was once
Emperor,
outflanking Autumn,
outsmarting snowplows,
outraging motorists,
and quite possibly
overestimating himself...

Caffeine Rush
Heartbeat fast
Nerves so high
Senses tense
Mind trembling
Darkness surrounded
I’m turning
From side to side
Blood veins jumping
Thoughts in chaos
Brain running
Stars falling
I’m still turning
From side to side
Time is still
Clocks have turned
Against me
And my mind
Outsmarting time
I’m turning
From side to side
Eyelids falling
Heartbeat fast
Nerves so high
Mind is tense
I’m still turning
From side to side...

East and West
He says he is right, but she has a different philosophy.
They differ on everything but share the same astrology.
She's so naive but always tries to be a mother.
They end up doing comedy while outsmarting each other.
Ready to put up a fight, she just needs a bit of reason.
She would continue her flow; of course, she doesn't like to listen.
Only heaven knows what they are about to do next.
Union looks unlikely as she is east and he represents west....
