Tesla’s magic wand,
Energy in the ether's;
Paints lightening art.

In your ears Tesla does spark

An orange Tesla that was bought by Scott
Ran out of go juice right there on the spot
Then was quickly passed
By a Pacer, gassed
And AMC car shaped like a kumquat...

Elon Musk the Starman
Without gas you bet I can
Launched a Tesla Falcon Heavy
Using gas like an old beat Chevy
Electric car for your need
It's got space you won't believe
Lonely ride with astronaut
Use your paypal can be bought

Brilliant for sure
Perhaps an enigma
Monotony’s cure
Cultural stigma
Secure transactions
Visions of Mars
Free-speech imperatives,
Self-driving cars
Staunch libertarian
Doge crypto bump
But buying a Tesla?
That’s voting for Trump

Mu uncle Franklin
was a pro wrestler.
He lit up a room
like Nikola Tesla.

My aunt Judy
was a cake maker.
Her cakes were tall
like an LA Laker.

My brother Steve
played video games
-until my mom Kate
called him names.

Kate, to her credit
was a fine, fine artist.
But with brains, forget it.
I am the smartest....

Power in the night time
flowing down those pole wires,
bless electricity!

your breakers not thrown,
bright light for everyone to see,
bless electricity!

armature moves,
electro-mechanical,
bless electricity!

tesla coil fires,
transistors begin switching,
bless electricity!

amplifier energy,
music notes play,
bless electricity!

in the trench I traveled the grand father opening up to me
telling me stories of foes or friends the grand daughter
and you want to tell me the crusades

every night when I close my eyes I dream the fight

not for me to share but a few and not certainly the greed
of tesla not taking a ride but the gems of africa
and china to take a shine for a private jet

or just I jest the dream of revolting an orbit...

While listening on his cosmic phone
He caught the words 'Olympus blown'
A newcomer, being shown around
was guided there by way of sound

" she's listening " Archimedes found
to steps been laid upon the ground
Sir Isaac, while upside down
gave Albert a turn
saying "change that frown!"
Kelvin's finally finished his cup
and our dearest Tesla...

is about to wake up!

.
.
it's a matter...
of transmutable...

These poets never  dismiss you!
They always cheer you on.  

You won' find then as fault finders.
Or to embarass you in public with 
blatant reminders.

Nor show off how smart they are.
Those are not poets,,more like Tesla cars.

Friends know "the other" is very invaluable.
The long term friendships at Poetry Soup?
Most blessed, and poetically incalculable,

Once keys jingled,
ignition and clutch
growling
with one open mouth.

The ride is smoother now,
no need to kickstart or throttle
the brain.

We let our bodies talk,
through the gears.

Hold my stick honey,
while I change lanes
looking for potholes.

I fall asleep,
when not fighting your curves.

We all know that recharging,
a Tesla
is a peaceful way to die,

let us speed past darlin,
just as sexy
as age will allow.

My old flame in the kitchen
Man, she could bring the heat
They’ve now induced induction
I feel so incomplete

It sprung up overnight
It lit the world ablaze
And now my flame’s anathema
In just a few short days

They say she causes asthma
And cognitive distress
I think there’s likely more at play
But that’s an addled guess

But I know when the grid is out
The Tesla has no charge
I’ll be flippin’ griddle cakes
with gas and living large...

Thomas made the lightbulb, and Nikola made a coil,
each of them was brilliant over everything they'd toil.

And though they did amazing things with all their mind and heart,
neither liked the other one and so they worked apart.

They argued over processes and created quite a feud,
they berated and belittled and were both completely rude.

It's too bad that their pride got in the way right from the start;
they could have done much more together than they did apart....

I’m an old guy jogging
like Joe Biden, kind of goofy looking.
The wind is dragging its feet,
the sun is frying sweat again.

I like to rock on the porch
shopping in my mind
for stuff too expensive to actually buy,

but out here people stare,
young girls giggle,
dogs sniff and yap, some attack.
I get a runners fizzy-dizzy,
then cuss under my breath.

I think I will shop for a Tesla later
or a New Chevy Corvette.
Maybe Amazon has some miniature models
for a kid my age....
