Short Wads Poems

Don Corleone
stood alone
a mafia boss
that none would cross

Sometimes bumbles
often mumbles
his diction at odds
with cotton wads...

Is celebrity really curse

Spending wads of cash in your purse

Sycophants ready to please

They wipe your butt if you sneeze

At Twenty Seven dead in a hearse...

I wish I was rich,I wish I was rich!
If I was rich
I wouldn't *****
and I wouldn't moan.
I'd sit there with wads
of cash
all on my own.
If I was rich,if I was rich,
I wouldn't
spend a penny.
coz,if I did
I wouldn't  stop 
and then
I'd not have any....

Wads of Bazooka Joe under my seat
     cigarette smoke in the john

   Butting in line for some 'mystery meat'
     giggling at boys with a 'hard-on'

   This was the kind of mischief we made ~
     before handguns replaced baseball card trades...

I like an empty trash basket.
It tempts me to fill it with wads of wasted effort
In a futile attempt to write the words 
That will finally win your heart.
Perhaps when hell freezes over,
But it’s a freakishly warm day in mid-December.
When the offering basket is full
Of ardent vulnerabilities
I'll dump it out, count my blessings, 
And start over....

Here walks a man
Dressed to the nines
Talking by hand 
With a mouth full of sighs

Fingers in his pockets
Grasping wads of lint
Eyes rolling in their sockets
Torn socks in shoes looking mint

Trully impressive he is
While he struts down the road
Self-assured the strain of that smile of his
Will stay hidden within the fold

The truth this man
Remains but a mystery
His shiny facade a sham
Yet it does its job implicitly...

Mediocracy
          Along the simple path we plod 

                       Bureaucracy
         With a maze of obstacles to trod

                         Autocracy
       Also trying to dodge the hit squads

                         Theocracy
      Steering clear, of banned lesser gods 

                         Plutocracy
     Ride on through, wielding big fat wads

                         Democracy 
  A minefield of all above, behind the facade
