 feel a intense pulse in my aorta
loving you quickens my weak heart

A dude who owns a Porche
Has a major attitude problem sorta
Nose in the air
As people stare
So important to look good at the opera...

Falls trees turning leaves
Blanket the bare autum ground
Skies of grayish mist
A prelude of snowey days
We awate the menthol spring...

Tanka,sorta......

spoken in voices
they separate in tenses
things done and heard
they explain and define
and sorta remind
of things were are to
and never to do....

who would give your shirt.

The joy in my heart can't be explained
Sorta like when you get your first choo-choo train
Well I stand up to pee
Discovered have no teats
Which made sense, started combing my mane...

I knew a guy whose name was Jake
Who lived in the woods near a lake
           He was sorta wacky 
           And a tad bit tacky
But for some reason he liked to bake

Within the depths
of micro-molecular brain 
fluid

I wonder how come
you call and I answer.

Falling all around me are
miniscule beads of light,
sorta like raindrops on 
the windowpane rolling.....

Makes me wonder what
I'll see on the otherside,
as I reach for the ledge
just to take a peek..........

They'll have to call them belts, they're right on the border
Not complaining, not I
Shorter is better I cry
Can almost see what they had for dinner... sorta!...

Cheers to the Penguin
our tuxedo-feathered friend.
They're sorta shaped like bottles
from end to end.
Though he can't act, or model
On swimming most depend.
And they wobble at full throttle
Cheers to our little friends....

Some days are diamond, some days are diamonds
Hey wait! Somethings wrong, each man is an island
What's good for some
Some fall on their bum
For me, it's diamonds, no ifs, ands, or hyphens

(Hyphens? Well it sorta rhymes doesn't it!!!)...

I got friends who are dying
Isn't everybody?
Yeah . But they live as if they were.
Making every moment and chance count
Sorta like a hawk
Or a sparrow
Or any wild thing
I got friends who live
In the present
Tense
I got friends
It's a nice feeling
For now....

Once a man was caught off guard,
Crying like a child.
He was fat as tubby lard
And was sorta wild.

Took a woman of great wealth
His potential seen.
Made him lose weight regain health
Now he is not mean.



A form invented by Andrea Dietrich (a 7-5 Torchee)...

To See Or Not To See

General Custer had a sentry,
A man of trust whose name was Henry,
He lost his spyglasses,
Used his blurred eyeglasses,
Yelled, "Those Indians sorta friendly."

I love 80's music
and talk radio AM
I can't sleep
I keep being the person I was, I am
I just keep being me
Sometimes it doesn't really work out
I sorta wonder why don't I change
And then I just  don't  care
But that's me
the forty something chick with a nose stud
and a husband 
who wonders the same thing...

deep as, 
subtle as the water,
under the lake of frozen time,
ask not what is that ding,
don't listen to that ring,
hear the bloody Angels sing?
bell a tinkle,
is it mine? 
sorta....
its fine...
plonk or wine?
benzadrine just aint my thing,
talk to you another time.
