Short Tepee Poems

tepee flap open
you are welcome in my friend
rattle it when closed
except when two sticks are crossed
there’s no need to start a war

teriyaki tepee 
telegraphs telescope
temperamental tentacles
teasing testy antelope
televising tempting tempos
torturing terriers who mope
teriyaki tepee
you are the utter dope!...

White skin, stretched up,
Catching the light of the summertime,
	When a cry, unheard,

Life is cooking!
	Far in, far out.
The lovers' worship the long nights,
and they never glimpsed for a moment the long cry;
And then the praise, as if it were Life itself,

	It seemed gone forever
Between their arms!...

Walking, thinking, in the mist eye
At the same time as entrancing under the sky
Shadow of vapors, aching in breathless foggy
Wavering restlessly, fading chalky

Free from thorn of the leaves tepee

I' all by one's lonesome- walkin' through 
The shadow fiend of dimness preview
Peasouper unearthly eerie 
Stir, stir! A poet's inspirational ditty...

A caged bird wishes to be free,
To fly with the wind and flee,

Let me fly like a bee,
And explore where my eyes can see,

Over the horizon to the green golf tee,

Singing alone with a voice of three,
Someone yonder will think it a glee,

Who says only women are twee,
Emotions are emotions even if wee,

I want to feel freedom if only you agree,
Being a caged bird I envy thee,

Taking your family on a shopping spree,
Leaving me in bondage at no fee,...
