Short Totals Poems

During the day we have three meals plus two others
Brekkie, PRE-lunch, lunch, PRE-SUPPER, and supper
Totals about five
Well I'm still alive
So it works for me, I'm as flexible as rubber...

Ivory keys are 
old and damaged now,
years of  memories
locked within their depth,
fingers now gnarled once
drew melodic sounds

There sits a man
	with pen in hand
Counting the stars that shine.
Do not disturb,
	he’s completely absurd,
Involved with matters of consequence.
He sits and he counts
	then totals the amounts;
He’s rich ‘cause he owns all those stars.
Oh, look! Now the sky is all blank

Re-Marking June

A Pride fellow with the hockey staff,
Who is jeered by some that made them laugh,
Was to count the whole team's men,
Ere the P.A., (ne'er again),
Said, "Our team's men totals about half."

Listist memories surrounding the cool autumn breeze;
Cellular graphical biological totals stacked high on highs;
Over on top of each other sunshines brights bleeds;
Parking dazzling lights and compensating prisms parallel to the skies;
Horizontally traumatized;
As humanity tries to dramatize;
Wake up open your eyes;
Get up you need to realize; 
a last such a beautiful view- 
high in you
