There once was a man named Buck
Who ate a morsel of duck

He started to cough
Then took a huge quaff

Cause his wife forgot to pluck!...

tiny, rapid wings
buzzing over purple blooms
probiscus tasting

probiscus reaching
probing, sweet nectar's lifeline
quaff little creature...

pity, I can't laugh

                                         funny neck of that giraffe

                                            bent down for a quaff...

Ballet, beer and bees.
It's good to keep the Bs together.
The Bs can be good company.

Ballet, we watch; beer, we quaff;
bees, we keep; veil, we wear.
Good to enjoy B, B and B. And that V.

(I)
I quaff your
vermillion quintessence,
the scarlet blood
untangling
snarls of
my weathered epidermis,

(II)
I toss
my life towards
resurrection’s
open bosom,
cavorting atop
the rippling
waves of
Christ’s shores...

If a quaff were to be drunk by a giraffe would his long neck like to laugh?

Remember when there was a giraffe,
Who always did like to drink a quaff;
Legs were long;
Sand a song,
And when he finished liked to laugh.

Tinctures of Tuscan red temptation
trickle through all
of the tempestuous rivulets
in Damascus

The scent of
the nonpareil nectar
torments both the
nearby boors and patricians

They quaff the wine and
leave the river dry
despite having no mouths
to drink from...

folks can't help but laugh
                           funny neck of that giraffe
                         bent down for a quaff


                      yonder, turtle squats
                    on its shadow, scared and yet
                  gawks at  zooming jet !...

With this cup in my hand 
I quaff a drink of deception
This is ridiculous 
Pitty party should not rest in my lexicon 

Unanswered phone calls while the moon smiles
Stars shine bright, while my soul is tinted
Happiness can't be bought,
but it damn sure can be rented...

I saw her in the sky this morn
  ghostly pale and forlorn
She couldn't even wink at me
  display her craters or her seas

I turned away, then hurried off
  my over-sensitivity to quaff
When a spark inside me brightly flared
  ~ The moon's still mine to view up there...

Most folks attend church to worship and praise the Lord as a general rule,

But this is not necessarily the case for God-fearing Deacon Cletus O'Toole.

He religiously goes to church every Sunday to take a nap (such is his nerve!),

And partake of potluck suppers and to quaff the coffee and donuts they serve!...

If you want to eat right,
No need to go out at night.
Fish and chips cooked at home, 
Saves you having to roam,
With a wine from the rack,
That won't set you back.
No driving, so you can quaff,
So eat, drink and have a laugh.
And at the end of the night,
The price is just right.

You sip your green tea,
I quaff my cold 
beer;

you'll kill for a front seat,
I'll murder for 
a rear;

I'll fight for the puma,
you for the
panda;

you boo while I cheer,
now increasily 
clear;

reasons you won't hear,
no business being 
here;

lest tempers go nuclear,
let's just both 
disappear!...

It may be your desire
   to want a beer 
with the holiday season near
You want to laugh 
     and so you quaff
  A tall glass - best in 
the land
   It will leave you 
feeling grand
    and I'll lend you a helping hand
as you walk through the sand
     of time 
with or without rhyme
    Have a joyful time!...

Snake on My Neck


There's a live Snake
On my neck so awake
What kind of a Snake
Pendant on your neck
Making you a wreak?
A Snake that's mine
I shall vividly define:

I hide bare top in wigs
And woes with swigs; 
I quaff and drown
Like a wretched clown,

Till I'm so senseless
And, pretty penniless!

Bring me not the humdrum,

Just bring good things to me.

Fine wine, and cheeses

And books of poetry.

Let me debate a philosopher,

Let him steel my mind.

Then, we could quaff good ale

And drink till we were blind.

Just for a little while,

Give me naught but pleasure.

Then when it's back to the grind,

I'll feel I've had my measure....

Alone, this evening,
I see despair and darkness
wrestling in the wind
with these questions:

How much misery do I need
until I say enough?
Why must I still have to stay
instead of sayin' goodbye?

The beer in the gleaming glass
is like bubbling brook,
tempting me to quaff its acrid taste
to let the pain peter out

until my brain feels a brief
oblivion....

It was not my plan to be here.
I was drawn hither by cold beer
Thither, Hell’s heat too stiff to bear
Nor should I to it flesh spare…

And, now, everywhere noise is near.
You know I don’t drink and keep fear
Noise, next full storm and life is dear.
So leave I should: try some calm rear
What do I say: came to quaff beer
Just met knife, sword, javelin and spear
And before I could quit blood-smear?...

It beckons, this chalice of night,
brooding beneath the limpid film
of gossamer and stolen light.

It preys, this chalice of night,
on satiations longing need
to quaff, to quench, a darkened seed.

It’s curse, this chalice of night,
it’s emptiness a lunar arc
that starts and ends as fluid dark.

It holds, this chalice of night,
a taste of sanguine revelry’s
moonlit curse of devilry.

Would you on the spot succumb,
When someone told you “Welcome?”
The fine time to act a lamb
One’s closed door hold on its jamb
While the key to it arrives 
And door-unlocking strength strives?

A woman I had seen, stopped
And besought by a head cocked 
To quaff a bottle of stout
And perfectly look The Scout
She’d seemed to want to be 
But couldn’t have from just tea…

And a bottle became Two,
Drinker’s mind divided, too;
Later, climaxed it to five,
Drinker no longer alive!...
