Straight out of dream

A bouncy ball
Bounced up the hall
Straight out of the front door
It bounced into a river bed
And sank into its floor...

And it's on the floor
Say, can I clean the Dorm 3 floor?
hey! i love clean environments...

She know that its all
good and her sexy is fine.
Can trap a man at the drop
of a hat so very real.
Straight out to kill
automatic love surrender.

red has never been this red, pink is the prettiest ever
I stare into the ice cream vendor’s cart and my smile glows
blues he is selling are straight out of heaven’s blues...

kissable lips
Audrey Hepburn worthy
Sunglasses remind me of Jackie Onassis
She lifts them
as I suspected, she is straight out of the sixties
chic and sophisticated in all ways...

Shaky hands
Racing heart
Like a million drums that start

Blurry eyes
Dizzy head 
Like a drunk straight out of bed

Now take a breath
Sigh it out
Remind yourself what lifes about...

War has such graphic sceneries of,

Dying man, of starving Childs, and wailing wife’s.

Isn’t it captivating and sad how death paints his canvas, 

With sorrow and hate straight out of our weeping souls....

Jazzy Cat was playing the beatnik cat blues.
He has lost so much, what else does he have to lose?
There were many comments, about his granny glasses’ hues.
Straight out of the sixties, he was yesterday’s news....

Cameras are everywhere
Some seen, others hidden
Criminals should be seen
Robbery is forbidden
Nothing is infallible
A youth knew this for sure
He took a chance
Robbed a bank
Then walked straight out the door...

darting and chirping
songbirds and crickets
flitting and flirting
butterflies and wasps
honey bees and faeries
yard is pregnant with life
meadow forest jive
peaceful ambiance
straight out of an angel’s blueprint...

A reckless young pirate named Greg
Drank whisky straight out of a keg.
He cried 'Look at me!'
In shark-ridden sea;
That drink cost an arm and a leg!

That peacock is straight out of the sixties I told the throng.
One of them was way too young to know. He said that I was wrong.
He is the colors of the sixties – oranges, yellows and pink.
How do you know? He asked me. Was he afraid to think?...

Avoid needless
complexity
Say it
straight out

Frost and
then Hemingway
Set the rules
down

Between meaning
and verbiage
The idea
is king

Sharpen 
the point
The message
— the thing

Just point her nose straight out to sea
to view God's glorious serenity
Look towards heavens, praise in prayer
You'll find God's church everywhere. 
====================================
 
Lake Pontchartrain is where I take my boat ,"Atta Buoy" 
when I want to see God clearly...

A Jester, a Joker, a Comedian or a Clown
They all act stupid but are really smart,
They are an odd breed of their own
And just for few laughs steal your heart;
Creature of habits aren't they all?
Knocks you straight out with stories tall!...

Fully standard man
Come straight out the can
Right into the pan 
According to plan 

Sports fan
Sensible sedan 
Don't ask how it began 
Sleepwalking man 

In some kind of jam
Wonder where I am 
Think it all a big scam 
Malfunctioning man

Flip flop look what’s landed on top
Straight out of the barbershop
Bald head’s a bowling ball
Leg up high for aerial
Come swift stumbling to a full stop

I stare at the nostalgic art
It is straight out of the fifties
When women were dying thei hair
Turquois to match their turquoise car and luggage
Or pink to match their pink car and luggage
I stare at the art; remembering my youth
Thinking pink hair made sense
it did in the fifties....

He came straight out of the water toward me at the speed of a semi
I was unafraid, as the only creatures in this tank were dolphins and me
My clairsentience yelled, “This is not a dolphin!”
Refusing to listen to my inner voice, I was astounded to see….
the jagged teeth of a hungry great ……....

Big Mouth
Beyond Control
Lips Alpha Talk
No discussion
Talking straight out
A beginning with no end
Hour by hour
Minute by Minute
No pause
Anger sets in
Then censor begins
Express through the teeth and gums
When will this mouth stop?
No let up
A Duracell Mouth
Going and still going

I drew my heart
On a paper plane
And blew into it
Whispering your name! 
It flew straight out
Of my room window
And landed on your
Living room floor! 
You picked it up 
And smiled blowing
Into the paper plane too
My heart swelled 
And that’s when I knew
You had feelings for me too!

A day in love with my very best friend:
That's all I was given.
Then,
Straight out of Heaven,
God sent me an angel instead.
He sent me a lifetime of love til the end.
Thank you for that day.
Thanks for going away.
Now, I can smile and say,
"Thank you, God, for a day of pain,
And for the love of a lifetime that followed."...
