the Birds will battle
zilch in Seattle
Red Sox Cubs Dodgers
no Jolly Rodgers
Post Season begins
lets watch see who wins
A Vegan in search of a treat
Impulsively swallowed some meat
The protein gush
Was such a rush
The circumcision was complete!
Champion of life,
trophies on the road
Accolades for someone else,
—one more thing to know
(Seattle Washington: March, 2017)
Simpering silly psycho Sally
Sashayed sassily down Seattle alley
Slimy slithering slugs scurried past
Silly Sally scanned scuttling insect sass
Pacific winds blow
over Olympic mountains
rain shadow of Sequim
sixteen inches the year’s rain
Seattle gets two hundred
12/1/2021
From New York City to L.A.; from Austin to Seattle,
so-called singers screech or bray in an auditions battle!
For Brian Strand's "A Couple of Lines"
Melancholy Skies
Seattle drizzle
falling from misty gray skies
autumn to springtime
with intuition
what we would mention
had premonition
meet God by my ambition
more ammunition
had been big battle
win series will Seattle
league up did rattle
Nice Weather for Ducks
In Seattle
During the winter rains
The coming greeting
Is nice weather
For ducks
Who loves to play
In rainy days
Of Seattle’s winter
There once was this babe from Seattle
who'd get wild when bands squared to battle.
Absorbed like a sponge,
she redefined grunge
with each rocker she chose to straddle.
Settle in Seattle After You Pedal
What you should do is to settle,
Down home in beautiful Seattle,
Get a grip;
Great trip;
After we did pedal on the metal.
Jim Horn
There once was an old man from Seattle
Who had it in his thoughts to skedaddle
But booking trips his mind they would rattle
He took plane
Landed in Spain
When he wanted to go to Newcastle.
Seattle to Kensington a short journey indeed
He became experienced through his guitar amp feed
He lived his life like a machine gun
Hey Joe plays little wing, on the third stone from the sun
Tonight,
I had a date with the mountain
Tonight,
I made those promises impend
Tonight,
behind the shadow of my fear
Tonight
—the devil smiled at me again
(Seattle Washington: March, 2017)
Cautious About Crane in Seattle
In Seattle, fallen over had a tall crane;
Down below in the street does remain;
Sound air filled;
Several killed,
And luckily it never landed in fast lane.
Jim Horn
Nicoletta Nunez announces noon and nightly news
Silvia De Silva sends the news at six and seven
Nunez is in Newark with De Silva in Seattle
Between them both, better bet there is broadcast battle
12/6/17
There's a sweet young lady named Jill
for whom travel is such a big thrill.
She sees many places
and lots of kind faces
in Asheville, Nashville,
Seattle and Seville,
Belleville, Louisville
and Copacabana, Brazil!
To Match Other Superbowl Poem
Now it has become a bird which squawks
Going by name of Seattle Seahawks
Of not only of the whole North West
But also rest of country is the best.
James Thomas Horn
Retired Veteran
Not the protein, dear Rico, the fat!
There’ll be no more wheat grass for Jack Sprat.
That unhappy vegan
Has gone Chrissy Teigen,
Is now off clubbing seals with a bat.
H/T to Wickless in Seattle by Rico Leffanta
Tonight,
I had a date with the mountain
Tonight,
I made those promises impend
Tonight,
behind the shadow of my fear
Tonight,
—the devil smiled at me again
(Seattle Washington: ‘Something For Jimi’
March, 2017)
Cannot Beat the Beat
Can never be able to beat, "The Beat;"
To ever disavow, deplete or do delete;
Truth will tell,
That is swell,
What I say was always done discrete.
Jim Horn
Ari Melber Show on MSNBC who is
From Seattle.
Condemnation, confrontation
Nasty, no-compromise nation
Protestors plentiful, a passel irruptive
Ornery out-of-towners, so disruptive
Downtowns deflowered in
Portland Chicago, Seattle
Lawless looters ~
Time to skedaddle
Love Living and Forgiving
Washington is where we love living;
Soon may be skiing by Thanksgiving;
Cascades snowing,
And we are going;
Found them friendly and forgiving.
Jim Horn
Live here in North Carolina now
but our hearts are still in Seattle.
The rain continues to plummet and fall
And the gray of the day looks like it will never go away.
I long for the boisterous blue of a hot summer’s day.
It seems our shy sun has wandered and meandered astray
From today’s and tomorrow’s forecast much to my dismay.
'Peaceful Protests Intensified' --
So the morrow's headlines certified
But how'd reporters turn blind eyes
To fire-bombings that terrorized
a downtown stunned and traumatized
Why was ugly violence euphemized
~ as 'Peaceful Protests Intensified'
