The feature this month is swimwear,
An answer to many a prayer:
Men shell out good loot
To eye a swimsuit,
Preferring the babe was all bare.
the man with a crown on his head
has likely to spend time in bed
the Queen, misbehaving
the cause of much raving
preferring most couches instead.
Li Po, the Wanderer
Was appointed Court Poet
Yet left again in haste,
Preferring the bright noise of a waterfall
To the white noise of courtesans and kings.
An illustrator was one John Sloan
as cartoonist would never moan
Opposed to art used for proporganda
preferring social scenes comme ci comme ca*

preferring His Love (to distraction)/
is a habit that's smart
[my poem based on CCC 2729 + 2565]
Thing-a-ma-gigs seldom wear underwear
Preferring bare skin to breeze in the air
With satisfaction
Hope for a reaction
Frankly you squirrels, most of us do not care.
Of Trump Washed Hands
Of Trump, we had washed both hands,
After hearing him and all his demands;
Presume maniac,
Preferring panic;
Should see golden shower on the sand.

I'm preferring a tea and coffee over any whiskey,
But the tea need to be brewed, and I am very frisky,
And whiskey is at hand, to close to my wrist,
Such strong temptation, that I couldn't resist!
the drone of gossip fills the lunchroom
maniacal laughter bursts occasionally
I eat alone on the other side of the wall
preferring to do anything else
writing poetry, drawing cartoons, loving being me.
My parents thought giving me too many chances would be a mistake,
When so much was at stake,
Preferring to leave me in no doubt about the choices I needed to make,
Starting with what was on my dinner plate.
Out of the gates, the others raced
She did not, preferring to trot
The others scoffed, they were cruel
Not put off, she used it as fuel
For the others, it was now or never
For her, it was how, and forever
Are our canine friends hiding this amazing fact
They are very human-like trapped in a furry wrap
They chuckle under their breath
Preferring to wear a dress
Don't want to blow it, so on the lawn they still crap
So many have to’s.
I have done the minimum.
Preferring my day.
To keep as my own.
Holding on to integrity.
Tomorrow may be my last.
I might not even last the night.
I congratulate myself
Wasting no time
On things I despise.
Snakes are clever, staying out of humans’ way
Preferring to be up at night, sleeping away during the day
I look for them in the morning, but never see them at all
At midnight, however, one is climbing my lattice work, nine foot tall.
orange comes and gets me
excitedly showing me yellow
I smile at his enthusiasm.
Yellow winks, delighting pink
who give me a bit of love
Plaid walks by and tries to horn in
But we are all about the sixties
So we chase plaid off
preferring floral.
Join us.
is that a jackaroo or a jillaroo?
I am annoyed, preferring to be called ringer.
have spent the day with a green one.
decide to escape, take a walk by the sea.
broncoing has worn me out.
1080 irritates me.
I finally revitalize, feeling replenished.
thanks to the glorious sky.
sore throat medicine
eye glasses
left shoe
potted plant
a six-foot tree branch
pieces from someone else’s porch
walnut
stuffing from an Amazon box
things brought into the house
through the doggie door
by our new puppy
who ignores expensive dog chews
preferring to find his own entertainment
the day before her wedding
Pandora found her mother’s loony box
there were journals about her bi-polar condition
and her suicide plans.
We were glad she kept it silently locked
did not read it on that day
or any other day,
preferring to burn it unopened
after she had been married for fifty-six years.
Rhyme scheme by Robert Frost, words by the author
The thing that makes me human
wants a positive bond.
That lady wisdom would illumine
me, giving me social acumen.
I try not to respond
to one who wants to fight,
preferring peace as in a pond,
and find that giving love is quite
like a magic wand.
In my
Visionary realm I find,
Rhythmic thoughts,
Bouncing inside my head.
I must choose to release, or refrain,
For each is lusting to be heard.
Tediously,
I've left behind,
Those most unsought.
Whilst preferring instead,
in un-swept neural pathways they remain,
As minuscule thoughts, not words.

zany zippy zambo
rarely watches Rambo
preferring cartoons
watching Saturn’s moons
persnickety ways
does not waste his days
doing what he wants and only that
brought home five dogs and one straggly cat
zany zippy zambo is the king
of doing only his own thing
he had a wife who ran away
every day for him is full of play
We used to play truth or dare
behind Saint Johns church,
with the dirty girls a few blocks over.
Most of the time we chose dare
because we were ready to feel fire.
In that darkened parking lot,
we ignored God and Saint John
they in turn understood young lust
because never once did they stop us
perhaps preferring to hover and watch-
Shirley sallied forth with another amusing quip
Does she never take life seriously? Asked stern face
I chose to ignore him, preferring Shirley every day
She is always joking, stern face said to another woman.
She did not reply either.
Shirley enters the lunchroom with fairy dust and magic sparkles
Stern Face brings in gravel and disgust.
So unhurried we do not begin at all,
preferring to remain in tranquil repose,
as divine inspirations in mind snowball,
arising from a fulcrum God alone knows,
we are as we are thus, bliss drenched and complete,
enraptured as polarities meet and greet,
conjuring a verse with no need to rehearse,
since our soul is entwined with the universe.
The wind hears many secrets
As he blows at his election.
Only a hearer at best –
He mulls them over and again
But doesn’t repeat or think aloud
For there are too many to recount.
The wind also has many lovers –
Appreciating the trees –
Caressing the flowers
And cooling warm cheeks
But preferring to roam –
Blows away to a place unknown.
