Up To Your Irs

Up To Your IRS

My exemptions upped;
Ended up being bankrupt;
They were all corrupt.

Desert Blindness

sand blistering hot
     throat parched I need water
              ah an oasis

where could it have went
     it just upped and disappeared
          it was a mirage

Their memory not gone

True our loved ones have 
upped and gone before us

The memories we hold onto
are the company we keep

Their voices in our head
repeat the words we treasure

We are never truly alone
along this journey we call life

Core Upped

My ballot arrived in the mail
Like a skull & crossbones in gaol
But what gets my goat
If I do not vote
Then the GOP will prevail*

*For the Trumps to escape prosecution,
only the number of Republicans
elected to Congress matters;
quality, issues, and the future of
the USA are irrelevant to the GOP!

Visitations

Listen to poem:
*Image of Driftwords by Pixabay.
Visitations Yellows upped, humble shanty forms beyond verdant meadows. Animals resounding, quivering grounds, championed zephyrs penetrate leveled jealousies. I knocked, the whitish doorway opened, neighborly xenial exchanges. *Free Verse/Abecedarian 2021 October 17

King Takes Queen

Listen to poem:
her heart was not up for the taking
without warning
he upped the anties
turned the tables
changed the rules

he called her bluff
he switched it up
bumped it up a notch
the stakes now higher
she was out of aces

70th Birthday Toast

It was many years ago Mar and I tied the knot And the good times were many And the bad ones we forgot Had Erin; Ellen; Edie So we upped the people count And then, each of them, in turn Added more to the amount We’re here now to celebrate Something of momentous size Marlys turning seventy And the market took a dive So raise your glasses on high Let’s toast to the very one Whose Birthday provided us With all this good food and fun

A Very Windy Day In August

I didn’t want to make a great fuss When Fred sat beside me on the bus A great stink did appear - T’was expelled from his rear I went green and started to cuss I thought it would be indiscreet If I upped and went to swap seat He kept passing out gas From his windy fat ass ... (It’s lucky he can’t smell MY feet!) No idea of his real name.. but this really happened to me on the bus yesterday ... I don't have smelly feet 17th August 2016
