We are the sloggers
We are the dwellers in the rain...

blend into the fog

leading down to the water
creek flowing steady

roadway closed to cars
walkers move freely...

Remember when you’re driving you’re driving
Beware walkers, bikers—it’s a big deal!
All need to keep on safely arriving
So eyes on the road and hands on the wheel!...

Canes break
Walkers fly
Dentures are thrown
No one asks why
With no livelihood
We fail to thrive
Nothing to do
But watch the paint dry
Retirement sucks
Work was my life...

I got me a special pair of walkers,
Tattered, torn, comfortable dockers,
Ain’t too easy on the eyes,
And wouldn‘t win a prize,
It’s the size fourteens that are the shockers....

Few of us, excluding window cleaners,
And tight rope walkers,
Are not afraid of heights,
Yet we are all walking the tightrope,
That is life,
With greed on one side,
And need on the other side....

CATS FOR CONGRESS

Are these politicians just talkers?
Some seem like outright mockers!
Why not cats? How divine!
They can balance fine lines.
Either cats or tight-rope walkers!

Ghouls
Zombies
Dead of night
Creatures undead
Whoever started this must be insane.

Pale daughters of a certain age
are crestfallen when it snows
Still they recount the footfall
of the hardy walkers

Fog holds a certain allure
as they ponder their morality

But frost strikes at their sails
as they acknowledge their foibled hands...

A puppeteer and a columnist
Two greeting persons of great talent
A writer and a simple artist
Met in New York on a bench God-sent
Acquaintance that brought humor and scent
To watchers and walkers awed with skill
Moving and talking puppets that shrill...

dawn sky for painters
bright blue skies and bleak gray woods
distant conspire scheme

glistening sunshine
illuminates the wide space
crimson rubber pipe

winter leaf debris
respiring in forming lake 
Wheels flood the walkers...

Rich white-collar crooks wearing suits,    
	street walkers, and rowdy old coots,
	bank robbers, dope dealers,
	bootleggers, fake healers--           
	I found while pursuing my roots!

outside my dark windows 
in sickly yellow streetlights 
I see walkers with small support wheels 
and halting wheelchairs 
fight their way across the pedestrian 

but here 
with only the standby light from the stereo 
I see clearly my crutches dance 
in the hallway...

Loud announcements on my radio and megaphone
Heard all over the  school ground and parking zone-
It’s raining prof drivers, take extra precautions,
Drive slowly on your route, looking in all directions!
On the left are walkers and bikers on the right
Go straight, let your attendants help kids to alight!...
