Drank raki until he was full,
He tried riding home on his donkey
But his steering was wonky , 
He somehow ended up in Kabul....

spare wheel 
That you just pull out when you feel 
The wound of your heart doesn't heal 
And the pain in your life is real.

This Fouad Abbas
Having given up the world as unreachable
Now took hold the yellow disc
and wrested what was left
into some sort of plan....

my life around those,
who thought they could pose
as religious types: all “Praise be”, all cheering....

November,
riding waves of
eddy leaves left from October’s debut.
Majestic and proud, she takes firm command,
steering the bow
of Winter
toward
Spring....

It could stop an inch from the back of your heel. 
It went where it wanted to go
And refused to drive in thick snow 
So we decided it was clearly no deal...

“The Constitution,” claimed he, “needs revision!"...

The best anti theft lock for a car

So have these jocks on the steering wheel
For a display to ward off the thief in their steal.

he thought her allergies were no big deal.
She was feeling so merry,
forgot she can't have dairy,
so she puked all over his steering wheel.

riding with the windows down; 
Melodic foreboding sound 
beats slowly against my mind; 
Flashbacks jolt my steering wheel; 
Worn out drive needs a new track,
our playlist of memories....

The World is not out to get you !

You Are !

Or has it not been you ??

Who has brought yourself ??

Thus Far ?

Only you steering, driving this wreck
Car crash
Off the deck into the deep end

along winding canals,

vital impulse 
and I climb into my grey Ford 
I hold the steering wheel 
not to hit the car 
instinctively I twist 
on the left 
on the right 
should not I die 
because I want to get off 
After your breasts ... 
after I hear Bach!...

Her abode
Clothed with
Shades of purple
Rustic accents
Books & fairies
Steering
Reflecting
Her souls dance
Lilac so
Her happy hue
Singing to
Her being
Embraced
In violets
&  lilac lace
