It seems our Easter Egg dyer
Was a notorious liar
Our firing squad
Knew he was odd
But reacted when he yelled, "Fire!"
His little taradiddle made no impact
He lies most of the time, this is a fact
The only one who reacted was old Aunt Gree
She is losing it a bit at age one hundred and three
Paula persnickety poppycock provided proof
Questioning quarrelsome quick-witted quail
Responsible radicals reacted, reminding raised roof
Shopworn shortbread shakes shifty ships and shale
Does anyone know how Jumbo The Elephant died?
Hit by a freight train, succumbed quickly, no dry eyes
Poor thing had no chance
His soul made a ghost dance
People around reacted with sadness, quietly cried

Last week,
sorting through some mail,
I saw an ad that said
“Radio for sale,
only one dollar".
I thought "At last,
a real bargain", but then saw
“Volume stuck on blast".
At first, I reacted
with a frown,
but then thought
“I can't turn that down".
I made you dinner
I cleaned up after
All just for you, dear one
then we made love
So full of bliss that night
I waited three weeks
To say, "I love you"
Never expecting the way you reacted
What was going through your head
when on your face was a look of dread?

and beauty's blind too
reacted to or distracted by
as every mother's act
is true
no forest need
resolve its trees
the lion-fang's
myopic hue
the earnest creature's
bitter due
as love content
confounds the fool

Tomorrow, I thought, when I awake,
I shan't tell lies, I'll refuse to fake,
Therefore, going about my daily routine,
I told the truth most honest and keen.
As the day progressed hour by hour,
And so my senses began to tire.
People reacted in a most angry way,
Hence I promised, "Tomorrow I'll lie all day".
When Darla got a paper cut she went ballistic.
Reacted the way others acted if their arm was gnawed off.
If someone bumped her she complained for years and years.
Every scrape, scratch, and poke was a huge deal.
When she came home with her nose pierced we were incredulous.
It’s a cat, said grandma. I am not surprised.

The new millennium
2000
Promised 100 years of peace
Then came 9/11
And the world reacted
Forgot to think
And we went to war like idiots
Hitting innocent and
Guilty alike
Like feral dogs.
And now we hail every
Student with a smoke bomb
As a democrat
When it must be clear
They have nothing to offer,
But strife.
You never were
that kind of father
So I could never be
that kind of son
You saw what you
wanted in others
But with us it was
all zero sum
I reacted to what
you were doing
And not to the bombast
you spread
As the rift ever widened
between us
Into canyons of anger
— and dread

THE TONGUES OF FIRE
THAT ERUPTED FROM YOUR SKULL
SEARCHED IN VAIN AND FAILED
TO SMOTHER THE FIRE OF MY LIFE
THAT WAS HIDDEN IN A CROOK,
AND FLOWED AS WATER.
BUT MY FIRE OF LUST WAS PUT OUT BY IT
AND THE ASHES
REACTED WITH MY TEARS
AND BURNED
SINGEING ME INSIDE AND OUT
ALAS ! IT NEVER GAVE BACK
THE FINAL KISS I GAVE YOU
I thought I sent you down my belly,
What are you doing in my head?
You conniving old shoe! You bitter brew
Go away from me, be forever gone
I’m finally done with you…!
Wait, wait –hic up-! I over reacted
Give me another sip…?
One more before I go…
Of course we’re bestttt… still friends –hic up-!
I was being fu….. Silly

I am locked out.
My hope is in a cage, no doubt.
My family is trapped.
On the other end of the phone, their energy sapped.
As I turn down that hall.
Filled with zombies, they stumble and fall.
My memories redacted.
Because of how I reacted.
To being turned to a teardrop.
That falls from my mother’s face onto the blacktop.
For unspoken answers,
there was always the-
question, why hawks
were needing the peace ?
Tied to innate fringes,
I want an explicit display.
The prologue was very
misleading.
War was inside and
outside. Were you a hobbes-
ian ? I am not afraid
of death.
Reacted so violently.
The colored shirts should be
taken off. Let us see
the scars !

riding a tractor
I reacted to its tread -
underneath put down
buried like a seed
watered and lit by the sun -
produced grateful fruit
what a shiny ride
blue skies, cotton clouds, straight back -
resistant to wind
troubles enhance croon
held up by the earth angels -
smiling at the youths
newbies want to ride
wisdom is reared on the seat -
knowingly, I pray
I'm sorry
I'm so sorry
Don't look at me with your sweet doe eyes
I'm sorry
My heart exploded with the pressure
My emotions spilled
All over the floor
Into your heart
I couldn't handle the littlest bit of pain
I reacted in the only way I knew
I'm sorry
Forgive me for thinking I was in love
Forgive me for being so sweet
We are too young for this my honeybee
My dying sun
My shattered moon
My imploding stars
Empty in thought
Memories of us left to rot
Completely unaware
Perfectly round like a square
Two pieces to a puzzle incomplete
Yet we put each other on our feet
Heart lay to waste
You reacted in bitter haste
I can not find
What is left behind
Now you are lost
I paid an ultimate cost
Never ending pain
Coursing through the brain
Everything we once had, now gone
I just feel so bad, hard to move on
Partly patient possibly passionate pretty Patty played prissy.
Rarely romantic rugged rakish Randy reacted with rejection.
Quickly quashing questions quixotic quietly quitting this quandary
she sashayed skirts and simply said sayonara sucker!
* note * my sissy made me giggle out loud when she tried.
A couple friends too ,sounded like they were pie-eyed!!

A flink of cows in Perrywood is being watched by a young falcon. And everyday the bird sees everyone of them, fascinated by their different colors. All cows noticed the young bird too, flying over them everytime they go out in the green fields.
A heifer said, "I wish I was a bird!"
Many cows heard her and smiled at her. All other cows gathered together and started wagging their ears and tails.
The same young, female cow reacted and said, "Tweet!"
I carried heavy burdens
I didn’t know I had
They reacted just like toxins
And made me feel real sad
Was there any value to life here on the Earth?
Everything I thought I had was vanity and air
Then I found a brand new birth
And Jesus took my care
Everyone who trusts in Him
Has nothing more to fear
But joy in blessings to the brim
Knowing always He is near
So cast your cares on Jesus, every single one
And live a life of peace on Earth and you shall see the Son
Felled in the form and gelled in indescribable,
It was a conundrum quite unfathomable,
Some chemicals reacted on its fibres,
A reaction took place in its innards,
and laughed at scared cowards,
who had shrunk and sprung back,
as if running with their ruck sacks,
the lava spewed from the volcano,
rammed in constantly dismembering form,
all that came in its way was torn,
some truths are like lava,
they simply sear through,
make culprits hurry and attention all drew.
Like a prayer
we are unobserved
when closest to parting our lips
uttering our beliefs
and like beggars put aside our pride
asking for understanding and relief
surely we do not dwell in the topics
we discuss but live in a world
frightened most of the time
and whether we thought or think now
acted or reacted in other times
leading or misleading ourselves
by habit and biology
we are still after all
psychologically impaired
psychically dazed
pathologically entwined
Last week I saw a shooting star,
A rare and wondrous sight.
Inside our car, my spouse and I
Reacted with delight.
I made a wish, remembering
Instructions I'd once heard.
My husband missed his chance,
Believing such a thing absurd.
My wish was for a future time
But since Election Day,
I wonder if I could have helped
Turn things a different way.
Perhaps if I had wished for help
Electing You-Know-Who,
The outcome of the race just might
Have switched from red to blue.
