Round Trip Ticket

The union shop decided to picket.
The union rep got a round trip ticket.
To meet with those upstairs.
And voice the workers cares.
Butt in the end, they told him to stick it.

Premium Member Dented Cans - a Love Story

driving away slow
   enchanted by metaphors…
        rice pelting our car
   white picket fences ahead
dented cans streaming behind

Did Determine the Ticket

Did Determine the Ticket

We did determine what was the ticket;
What we really should  do is to picket,
Up were  tensed;
Rebelled against,
So you cannot go to the Trump picnic.

My Grass and Mole Cricket

My Grass and Mole Cricket

My grass is being killed by mole cricket,
Even beneath my fence that is a picket;
Grass is dying;
We are crying;
Do wish there is way that we can lick it.

Crystalline beetles
down the picket creep
over peeling paint
toward drought seared soil.

Thirsty gapes the maw
of August seasoned Earth
where weary little bugs
are welcomed home.

Premium Member A Striking Llama

There once was a llama in my pocket,
as my eyes did expel from each socket.

          His snout stole my snack
                 in hunger attack.

Picket-eyes keep thieves out of my pocket.

Pier Fishing

Oceans breathe calm
rafts of jellyfish
breeze on paper lanterns

Piles creak under
wave's rise, blue arch weight
stick ,slow slaps, picket fence

Bowed rod reveals
tug of sea's intent
empty pail sits on pier

Christmas Picket

Elves were on strike, it was Santas worst fear
Sick of long, late hours and forced Christmas cheer
Sick of being on shelves
What to give to these elves
When they only work one month in the year....

Work together
Good or bad weather
Walk picket line
Rain or shine
Be strong  you belong
Do with a smile

You can with hope

 no days off to play
THEY PAIDED THE WAY

The 100th Goodnight

Coming close to curfew, keep count the flock
as they kick and kink over the picket

Rescind to limber my pick, remit the vigil
for I commit and sit vigilant awith

Dismiss the abyss, as I shall not remiss
and I leave you with this...
