Premium Member Strange Sounds

The strangest sounds I never heard
Are from a lizard and a bird - 
The quiet voice of the gecko, 
A duck’s quack that doesn’t echo.

as the human creature rose from slime
(if only briefly) to encroach, 
on the domain of the roach.

You never give me money
You only give me your strangest  company
And in the middle of conversation
You break down

Pretty Girls Don'T Cry

I search for a home in the strangest places
Look for love on strangers faces
Can’t say hello without a goodbye
But pretty girls don’t cry.

Premium Member life's lessons come in the strangest settings

Chaos in the aisles where we shop
Can teach us better than Aesop
At Costco we’ll yield
To carts lions wield
With a smile while for them we stop

which was: Time's an illusion.

Always transports his swine
In the back of his stretch limousine.

Pain
Aren’t really so different.

Often times, when it starts, you don’t know it’s happening.
And when it ends, 
It leaves you with the strangest craving. 
For more.

Premium Member Minister of Strangest Thrills

The ones that give perverts such strange thrills  
   Lovingly caresses them
   Religiously blesses them
Now he's off to see Beverly's Hills

The Strangest Fruits Are Vegetables

My art on the tomb walls



Ventriloquism for the bored and the dying

Coffins nailed to this pale stricken plot

The blink blink wink of a bleeding heart

 

For all the world to see.

Dream of Fall-Ing

I see it’s raining leaves,
The trees are getting bare;
A carpet on the ground.
I dose off in my chair,
And have the strangest dream:
Our cities swallowed whole,
The world submerged in leaves,
And nowhere left to go!

Unshadowed

I'm glad we're friends
You really do
Change my mood
To fresh and new

The strangest thing
My heart receives
Like sunlight for
Unshadowed leaves

I give you time
No chore for me
I think I would..
Eternally

The Mystic Doors

Whilst in deep sleep
Found a strangest place amidst
Strolled somewhere anew 

Creatures lead wrong ways
But still best life chose its path
Mystic doors were closed 

Glimpsed one and the rest
Until one by one opened
Watcher accosted.

Why Did I Watch That

led through the strangest valley
and forest this eve
with snickering, horned, little
phosphoresent faries

carried by cellulose
to my cornea

wicked and vile winged creatures
swept around my vicera until
I remembered it was just a 
movie.

The Seldom Random

The silence of the cynical still
Could certainly cut through the strangest steel,
The raging echo of the crying fear
Sinfully freezes up my tranquil fiery thrill.

Strange Friends

I was a stranger, you took me in 
but I found you were stranger still.
I guess we’re two peas in a pod 
cuz neither of us fits the bill
of all the many ways the world expects 
two blokes like us to be.
You took me in, now we’ve become... 
the strangest friends you’ll ever see.

Sleepwalking

I’ve woken in the strangest places
If, by strange, one means faceless
Scantily dressed, if at all
A parking lot outside a mall
A park, a street
In unsocked feet
An autopilot’s nighttime journey
Assless gown upon a gurney
Uncertain of what brought me to
Embarrassed, shocked, without a clue

Poseidon's Possum

The strangest things happen
in the Northern hemisphere
dancing dervishes
become the norm
in the mid Norwegian Sun,
mercator projected
A bird in flight
caught by the car lights,
travelling incognito.
Recess to be free,
there's a longing ;
in the upper atmosphere
see the lodestar disappear.

Premium Member Seahorses In My Sauerkraut

Seahorses in my sauerkraut
And no apologies or explanation.
I watched them cavort for a bit
Then I turned to the raccoons sliding down my plate
and I asked them what was happening.
As if we would know? One mouthed back.
Better ask the Ketchup.
The Ketchup speaks English?
Strangest breakfast yet.
