Altar Nuts

The wedding was scheduled for three
But the groom took off for a pee
How the bride's bra strap
Got caught on my lap
Remains a complete mystery . . . .

Premium Member Ripped And Dipped

She had wanted to go the beach  
     And yet, she was scheduled to teach
Her swimsuit had ripped
So she skinny-dipped
      Could this be a test of free speech?

Premium Member Shark Outsmarts Me Again Today

Cat’s shots were scheduled at noon today
Shark stayed out of sight, completely away.
Came prancing back home at five o’clock
Vet’s office closed for the day and duly locked.

No Introductions

I tried to introduce myself to Cherry
 
but then she introduced me to Harry
 
who give me the stink eye 
 
while signaling me to say goodbye
 
because they are scheduled to marry.

3:00pm Departure

Formations fly, two vees silhouetted 
against a leaden sky, winging their way
to warmer climes, according to flight plan
scheduled by nature, primal instinct, geese
programmed, heed the call when leaves turn then fall.

Tick, Tick, Tick

Knowing the answer,
excuses imbue

The right thing for others,
 never following through

A feigned double standard,
the past in pursuit

Reckoning scheduled
—payment en route

has slipped
behind the

as we view
we pay the

A Brief Description of My Week

Passed this week by slow
like honey poured out
Monday over oats
and figs, milk, bowl
of mixed up fruit with.

Tuesday drinking
I two coffees
by day making
way for scheduled

busy time.
Busy week
came Friday

at last
catching

breath.

Premium Member Artemis II

A journey landing in December
Road to the Moon of wonder
Trip of four to remember
East of Eden fonder
Milestone is in the offing
Instilled dream becomes a happening
Strobe lights showing and playing

Second-scheduled mission, but first crewed...

Premium Member Conditioned

This cold scheduled grey life 
Has me so on point and on task
The tunnel vision is nauseating 
The horse blinders debilitating 
Want for what, wish for who 
An existence built to hypnotize
Time coerced me into being  
Unapologetically institutionalized

Season End

Season end
Baseball bats will soon be quiet.
As football season takes a kick
Golf ball will be put away so a president can go to work.
 Hockey sticks will soon hit the puck
And baseballs will go in the net.
The summer season is scheduled to end.
Hello winter let it begin.

My Unusual Job

I have an unusual job
All I have to do is lob
On their doorstep once a week
And then I go to bed for a sleep

Every two hours I am woken up
I take their tablets in their scheduled sup
For I now make my living
Testing drugs in their measured vision.

We Forget To Collect Life

the eternal board is flashing
white letters on dark screen
destinations departures arrivals
scheduled greens
expected reds
delayed blues
frisking ffor the security of the
masses
collect your valuables he said
we forget though
life is the most valuable
we forget to collect

Premium Member People Who Make Meetings Last

I am intolerant of people who make a meeting last two extra hours.
Asking inane questions that pertain to only them.
And of the leaders of the meeting who allow them to take over.
Commandeering the rest of us.
Some think I am rude when I leave at the scheduled time.
Half of the other participants follow me out.

The Coffee is Bitter Today

I don't know why.

I added the same sugar,
poured from the same tin.

But it reminds me of farewells
those spoken casually,
like we wouldn't miss each other.

Like love could be scheduled.

This bitterness
it's not the coffee.
It's remembering your face only through photos
your voice buried beneath children's laughter.

What sway does Indian Summer hold
Over the seasons scheduled departure
The meekness of the solstice told
Far less bold than cold or harder
I would have said my goodbyes
By now but still await its invitation 
Coaxing to the ground the canopies
Of  yellow,  red, and brown 
Challenging the summer duration
