you're laying back and toking
is that a funny cigarette you're smoking?

Your tongue
suspiciously
spoke of constellations,
an unlicked sky gripping secrets
nonetheless, that mouth spat it's majesty
without ever stirring the air
proving no white stardust
really adorns
your tongue

adverbs dress up ordinary verbs
easily, quickly, confidently,
jokingly, suspiciously, cagily,
demurely, purely, delicately,
deliberately, justifiably, undeniably,
jubilantly, whimsically flippantly
they may be my favorite parts of speech

Juxtaposed to her charms
I examine my image
as a note of currency
held to the light for watermark
my smile suspiciously pleased
to have been caught
in the presence of beauty
the look in my eyes
one of apprehension
that the moment
was other than real
and won't be repeated

we need a truck I tell my man
dumpster, shovel, and garbage can
to haul what? he asks suspiciously
proof positive that he knows me
I like to haul, it is what I do
tossing debris like one old left shoe
annually throwing away mood stamps out my brain
better bring a huge dump truck and maybe a crane

I saw the coon dog
Crossing the road in front of me
Head hanging down
He moved suspiciously
Then, as I passed by him
My window down
He turned his head to look at me
A question in his dark eyes
Are you friendly, he asked
And I smiled, whispering under my breath
God bless your heart, sweet dog.
I so hope he found a good home.

I gave myself the body
of a secretary bird—
long legs like accusations,
a face too sharp for comfort.
But wings? I borrowed
from a taxidermied dodo:
soft, irrelevant,
stitched to the wrong century.
In the background,
a sky I did not earn.
In the foreground,
a foot poised to crush a snake
that looks suspiciously like me.

Juxtaposed to her visage
frozen
in time like a work of art
I examine my image
as a note of currency
held to the light for a watermark
my smile suspiciously pleased
to have been caught
in the presence of cheer
the look in my eyes of apprehension
the moment was other than real
the moment I knew
it could never be
like that again

the airship came suspiciously close to my face
I flicked it away as if it was a bug but it kept coming
had I even touched it? no. I had felt air, not metal.
why is it still following me? what does it want?
Why don’t you ask? suggested my internal voice.
Who are you? What do you want from me.
Just a little compassion, a voice said.
I realized at that second, it was my voice.

Soft shadows,
slowly slide suspiciously,
sustaining shivers
shooting silently-
suggesting simultaneously,
surreal wind-blown,
wispy, wisteria wands
whispering wildly,
waltzing wonderfully-
while willfully
wagering, winged-wights wallow.
Slithering silhouettes
secretly stun-
surely, sculpturing spooky,
scary spirits-
showcasing swarthy,
spellbinding sprites.

We are like twins, just alike.
How?
We think alike.
Always?
Yes.
We have the same ideas.
All the same ideas?
Uh-huh.
How do you know?
I just do.
What do you think about Johnny?
We love him.
Both of you?
Uh-huh.
Do you like pie?
No.
Neither of you?
Right.
What if you disagree?
We never do. It is how we stay friends.
Her friend stays suspiciously silent, not wanting to make her angry.

If I had a minion he would be gloriously deferent to me.
He would wash my dishes, he would pay my bills.
He would do my dusting, and he would vacuum.
Uh-oh.
This is sounding suspiciously familiar.
This minion would cook my food, he would buy the groceries.
He would bring me sweet tea,
He would bring home pie.
I am so hoping my husband is not reading this one.
If I had a minion, I would love him forever, and call him Joe, right honey?

Be mindful, be careful,
for free speech may land you in word-jail.
Contrary counter-points are now
deemed suspiciously reactionary.
What was good and right yesterday
is slur and defamation today.
Agree, then do the opposite.
Play the game but find a covert way to cheat.
You must cross the line one step at a time.
Thoughts are now monitored
by digital watch dogs
remember this is not your father's line
this is a new line they drew
to pen you in more tightly.
