Short Tellers Poems

I went to the bank for some cash
But tellers were having a gnash
The ATM died
The Manager cried
And said he'd be back in a flash...

When my ex wife cashes her alimony check, all tellers shoot her a hard glance.
I never write "Alimony" in the memo section, I always write, "Lap Dance."...

Dreams are the stories
Told by the teacher within;
We learn from stories.
The story tellers magic
Gives birth to our achievements.

Sundust in the air
Endorphins ooze in wet shirts
Birds gossip on lines

2.

As crepuscule creeps 
Tale tellers gather 'round fires
A story is born...

You would think fortune tellers would know,
for their crystal balls would surely show;
so on Mondays weekly,
why don’t we get to see,
the headlines read psychic wins lotto....

A good Bank keeps things balanced - that's key

But, one thing that sure gets to me

        Their counting ain't right

        with five windows in sight

It's only two tellers, I see!...

Feels like only bandits wear masks 
Tellers shouldn't wear em for doing their tasks
In the old wild west
Sheriffs were the best 
We knew the rules we never had to ask...

Deep are the halls,
Darkest cold walls,
A secret kept locked,
Tellers of tales are mocked,
Beaming cold moonlight,
Wolfen beast takes flight,
Blood is now black,
No trail, or track,
Silent in rage,
The village now afraid.

When you hear the poet speak
Raise your hand
Snap your fingers
In the old beatnik tradition

Howl for the poets
Howl for the truth-tellers
In the old beatnik tradition

Snap your fingers and howl
For those who say to evil
No sir,
I will not break bread with you...

One fortune teller to another, “we’re going to have a hot summer”
The second one says “like the summer of 2092, that was a hummer?”
All wore metallic shorts
Special shields to cover our warts
Remember when girl robots showed their i-bums and had multitasking udders...

Follow me
So then I'll lead

Be like me 
So then you can see

A day in the life of me
Is you'll always succeed in your dreams

A fortune tellers fortune
Is making you believe in their movement

And to say it just right in pretty little ties
And make you realize the impossible

Is possible!...

The things that fortune-tellers know are quite unfortunate, I’m told:
They’re reportedly perceiving all the thoughts and fears and hopes 
Of we, the the ordinary folk, as such amongst them they’re achieving
Unprecedented rates of suicide - but great palm-reading

Not that we might not
Have ever known if
Our leaders had not
Noted their official
Capacity for not telling
And said nothing anyway,
Then in the jargon of non-
Truth tellers, liars bestsaid,
Notwithstanding, and had they
Said something worth hearing,
Then no one  would have understood
What it was they did not say....

poets are the world's best
                              the best writers of good dreams
                                  dream good for the world 

                                      highest lies' tellers
                                    politicians of the world
                                     play double crossing...

Whenever I enter classroom
Girls scribble to me bashes of smiles
I do not know why!

Whenever I enter a bank
Tellers click to me  sparks of smiles
I do not know why

Whenever I go to church to pray
Women bite me with a rainbow of smiles
I do not know why!

Whenever I enter passenger train
Women twitter to me arrows of smiles
I do not know why!...

What could be more tragic
then creating real spells from black magic

MKOften used fortune-tellers, medium, psychics and witches
to design a potion that defied all riches

Satanists and occultists would thrive up in joy
with this needle infused hell to be used as their toy

Now human rights became a thing of the past
as delivering this magic was their favorite blast...

We ask for the truth,
 but it's masked by
 televised ordeals of everything else 
we are not fortune tellers 
we don't know what the future holds 
so we sit and wait 
day after day for a sign 
that may never come
 neither psychics, fortune tellers 
or tarot card readers know 
what awaits our fate 
carpe Diem seize the day
 live for today 
because tomorrow may never come...

Remember our daughters
Remember our sons
Reserve this world
for the future ones.

The tearing of nature
and our beautiful land
The polluting of air
that I cannot stand.

Let's live in harmony
Let's live with feeling
Not with astrology
or the fortune tellers dealing.

Remember John Lennon
the love he would send
to the young and the old
till his life it did end.

Is there an alternative to the large Canadian dollar coins
How about peanuts or coffee beans
Imagine making a deposite at your bank
Of a thousand peanuts or coffee beans at the tellers cage
The teller's cage would have to be much larger
Or the teller would need some kind of protection device
I'm okay really... no really!
Perhaps a bunch of Tylenol a few time a day
That should do it don't you think?...

at nightfall flamboyant
nomad fortune tellers
midst their migration
in colours and flair
romani gypsies gather
outside their caravan
around a bonfire ablaze
they’d play their fiddles
guitars and cimbalom
singing in unwonted dialects
dancing under moonlight
beneath a dome of stars
in legendary brazen flurry
freedom tossed to the wind

Besides love and happiness
The world is full of sufferings
Political crisis, economic crisis, epidemics and poverty
Slanders, violations, crimes and trafficking
Politicking,  hegemony, disputes and wars
A never ending story of sufferings
Hardly any solutions
But becomes great inspiration for 
Story tellers
Art pieces
Poems writers
And
An old grandmother's story for the next generation
Of course an unerasable scandal...

It flickers into the deepest of our sub-conscience,
making us do things we wouldn't have dreamed before.
We do all we can, to stop uncertainty from throwing
a surprise right on our faces.
Insurance brokers, herbalists and fortune tellers know this very well;
they know we feel fragile on the palms of time -
they know we love our bodies, freedom and protection,
and we'll give out our last dime to keep them for ourselves........
