but I idle by.
Chase the rat?
But he's faster than I can fly.
Don't give in, pay the rent
for it all pans out in the end....

pans
apple sauce
chicken and dumplings
hot stove
cooking all night long
clear my mind 
clear my thoughts

all night long...

A dinner was set for two
A third one shows up, guest who
My ex messes up my plan
He was hit with pots and pans
Until his body had turned dark blue...

Let me lick the spoon
After you scrape the mixture
Into the cake pans.

Let me have the bowl
So I can lick the sweet streaks.
I will wash the dishes!...

Wearing flowers in his hair one 1968 summer...

your dripping tears on the pans.”...

As my wife and I suffer so bitterly
From wet soapy hands
That slip on plates and pans
Which occasionally crack most disagreeably...

Blended Pans
All things to all men.

And send me in orbit so fast.
Tannhauser Gate bound.
Blade Runner esque times ahead.
Paradise on fire....

IN    CONJUNCTION


If ifs and ands  were pots and pans - silly notions,
It would be difficult to cook eggs
And soup would spill over your legs.
Thank God ifs and ands are conjunctions....

nor do our needs for connections.
We skim and drown, pop up again
emoji minds blinking.
Mostly we are just Peter Pans
surfing with all the other
lost girls and boys....

amused by the odour of poo -
she has me in fits

Joys of married life outweigh minor discrepancies
Such as throwing pots and pans or other irregularities
Must turn a blind eye
As harmful stuff flies by
It all part of the charm, ignore the unavoidable peculiarities...

What a cook!
Flipping pans
Controlling the heat
Sweating it out
I’m anxious to eat.
Colors and flavors
Rainbow sensations
Feeding my soul.
“Try special stuffed shrimp”
The flavor extreme
More extraordinary,
The feast was a dream....

I love you
When the sun rises
And when the moon ascends.
I love you
When the fire goes out
And when the river ends.
I love you
Beneath the ageless tree
Like small riches untold.
I love you
As we wash the dirt
From our pans of gold....

Peter put up potted plants on paths  and patted himself
Pasted posters on pitted  parts where people paid to pee
Praised and panned , through  pleas and plans, pots and pans he banned
Pipped  at the post in poles  and piqued, he put it all on press....

Flasks and drums
Vases and urns
Barrels for holding pickles

Bowls and cups
Pots and pans
Piggy banks for nickles

Beakers, pitchers
Bottles for milk
Mere vessels for the rookies!

For no container
In the world
Can beat my jar of cookies!...

Such as throwing pots and pans or other minor irregularities
Must turn a blind eye
As dangerous stuff flies by
It all part of the charm, ignore the unavoidable peculiarities...

Pans clank together
flour flies  everywhere.
Children's laughter fills the air.
Taste here and there.
Pouring ingredients into bowls
spilling most on the floor. 
Making memories for all to treasure.
Thats what kids remember 
when baking with momma....

a sink of pots and pans
are a jazz quartet,

for those forced to make
there way alone in life

they never walk in beauty for
the miles are always longer when
the path is steep.

knee pads come with the uniform
for possums breaking
their disguise....
