Insomnia

Walking hand in hand
In the TV Land
midnight comedy
maybe later
we should be blessed
with a never ending advertisement
directed at
consumers like you..
An apparatus of sitcoms
til early next morning
Marathon mayhem
Advertisement addiction
Brainwashing bombardment

Premium Member Jerry and Elaine

Jerry 
Comedian rarely contrary.
Among his wacky friends, the voice of reason.
Still he got tossed in jail with them in their final season

Elaine
Confident and vain, she could be a pain.
Although Jerry's ex, she remained his friend,
along with George and kooky Kramer, till the very end.

Relishing Corpses

We see them in old movies,
aged sitcoms –
black and white
or fading color.

We hear ancient languages—
dead voices on sound tracks,
buried giggles, awkward squawks
of unexpected laughter.

We relish corpses—
old friends,
remembered relatives
stiff in brown photographs.

Reels creak, VHS tapes moan,
DVDs hum silently 
with sprocket holes, 
white scratches in sky,
burnt nitrate edges of night.

We relish corpses.

They are us.

100

If Lucille Ball had lived, she'd be one hundred today.
Many people were devastated when she passed away.
She and Desi Arnaz started a studio called Desilu.
They produced Star Trek and several other shows too.

It turns out that Mrs. Ball was a Leo like me.
She was a big fan of Three's Company.
When she starred in those sitcoms, she had much appeal.
Happy one hundredth birthday, Lucille.

(DEDICATED TO LUCILLE BALL WHO DIED APRIL 26, 1989.)
