Short Unleaded Poems

There was a headless horseman one day
he was probably a norseman I’d say
they’re caffeine wedded

Fluttering softly
patterns of lighted stained glass...
butterfly marvel.

The brand  of the gas not pure...

In line like a hen...
Would love to give his rash cure...

Returning from a one-sided
love affair
on a full tank of unleaded love.
It didn’t help matters much
with Roy Orbison singing
“It’s over” on the radio;
I made an attempt to turn it off
but I just couldn’t do it.

I live in a house
with roaches and a mouse
that I can never catch.
I live in a house 
with a Louse. 
Shes a loud mouth drunk.
I can't take this anymore!
Outside I lean against the trunk of a tree
and Think about dowsing that house
With regular unleaded.
but I CAN'T! 
I still love that woman!
who lives in that house 
with roaches and a  mouse  
that I can never catch!
