A Battle of An Insomniac
I have been awake for awhile,
Trying to obey my insomniac instinct.
Sleepy eyes marching with thunder;
Till my thoughts perish,
I have to hark and wander.
So stay tuned dear sleep,
As insomnia ain't a sweetmeat....

Premium Member Some Sweetmeat With Mesquite
Sweet, sweet, can't be beat
What a treat, love to eat
Veggie meat, cookie sheet
Oats and wheat down the street.

Take a seat off your feet
Here to greet friends from Crete
Cuban Pete in the sleet
Areet pleat, neat, petite.

The elite ocean fleet
No defeat, no retreat
Never cheat, just compete
I entreat my parakeet....

Eating In
I watched the monkey 
climb aboard,
and sink his claws 
into the small of your back
after all, 
its where the sweetmeat is


you stood there 
not batting an eye
while he devoured
and chewed on your psyche


ripping at ligaments
you twitched,
just a mite
and went white


refrain from turning back
refrain from self flagellation


throwing that hairy parasite
off your back


wings will spread again
and paint the doors to heaven
with a Mona Lisa smile...
