disrobe the beech-
a solitary nest

A globe wobbles in cosmos
A man makes ... a giant leap for mankind
A million hearts flutter on another....

Love is golden
And so are the flits of the flutes
Long wobbles and short darts
Together tell a story
I cannot put into words...

I'm a singularity--
no force wobbles me.
Above and below,
in fact, everywhere I go,
the void is sprinkled with dust:
mystery demands vast trust....

There is a young lady named Kelly,
With a rather large butt and belly,
When she does striptease,
She wobbles with ease,
After eating two gallons of jelly....

Love
Is a puppy
chases a rubber ball
baby puppy kissing by licking
he's so cute when he runs and wobbles

Cool dry breeze blowing
crinkled leaves turn vibrant hues
cedar boughs heavy

Hoo-hoo-hoo mourning
dove, wobbles by window sill
grain seeds most desired

The haystack yields more than just giggles
It shakes first then wobbles and wiggles
A month has now gone by
Can someone tell me why
She now craves ice cream with dill pickles

An ox can pull a weighted cart daily.
With mirrored force, I grapple to lift my right leg.
A toddler wobbles in his first steps,
but struggling, we inevitably became able to walk.
Hugging the wall, like a child in the deep pool, I rise up....

SPILLING SECRETS

the silver bullets...
a laugh from Harker’s friend
...Dracula’s raw steak

drains upon his plate...
handsome piece of meat...not pale
...centered fork wobbles

Harker drops his glass...
the smoking gun smiles
...ammunition spills

Once he ran, a younger man, now he hobbles
   Once he walked, cheerfully talked, now he wobbles

Once he laughed, a breezy updraft, now he cries
   Once he hoped, with the future eloped, now he sighs

Once he looked forward
   ~ Now he looks toward
         The day when he can die...

I carry supple heart,
Thy name engraved on it;
Heart when pulsates,
Vibrates thy name;
Whispers love and love,
Always love;
Thine exhilaration so egregious,
Coerces me to swoon;
My gait wobbles in ecstatic state,
Fumbles thy arms to hold;
My heart is supple,
Always seek thy chum;

There is a question mark behind planet X
and the sun seems to be returning to cosmic sperm.
I am reading my eyes in a public library mirror
looking for stars in those black holes.
Jupiter has shrunk to the size of a dime;
the engraved mirror needs cleaning,
the whole solar system wobbles as people pass-by....

The flute plays low
Dum, dum, de, de
Organ joints the tune
Dum, dum, de, de

Clarinet delights the ear
Dum, dum, de, de
Baby elephant wobbles
Not graceful now

High piccolo shrill gay
Dum, dum, de, de
Trombone show the way
Woddle of baby elephant

Dum, dum, de, de
Dum, dum, de, de
Dum, dum, de, de
Dum, dum, de, de...

I know a little tabby cat
her fluffy tummy slightly fat
She wobbles as she jogs along
I worry, is there something wrong

My worries are now put aside
that tabby cat now lies with pride
amongst her little kittens nine
all asleep in one long line

When all the marbles leave the bag
Fret not, weekend wrangler,
For the beat of your heart 
Wobbles the very Earth

This your wounded year
With waves calling from pier to pier
Rise, rise your gutless cheer!

Fear not the flashing spheres
Running over shadow-patched cracks
Gleaming with the glory of unkept dreams
Sending shockwaves through Heartlands....

Once I took a jellyfish
To visit a chiropodist
The doctor had a tinker with his toes
The doctor went around the bend
And all his hair stood up on end
And now he’s got a flashing orange nose

So never take a jellyfish
To visit a chiropodist 
I for one won’t do that anymore
But if you take a jellyfish
To visit a chiropodist
Please be sure it’s not a Man ’o War...

How does life go?
  Does it go straight ahead?
Full throttle? Ever onward and
  upward?  All systems go
all of the time? For some it may
  But not for me
           ~ That's not the way 

I say that life zigs and zags
  that it wiggles and wobbles
and waddles. It goes up;
  it comes down. It spins
around; it cries and falls down
        ~ It gets up again too...

The hot summer sun burns
But nowhere can I hide
My path has no respite
Finally a small wood
I rest in shaded glade
And take a while to cool


Looking ever on
I see the heat haze,
Baked by long hot days
The footpath wobbles
But this is my route


Time waits no more
Forced I move on
I must reach my
Destination


So I walk
Just keep on
I endure


The hot
Summer


Sun...

I sit entranced
as the shadows danced
…around me


I left the Buddha
outside in the falling snow
			…I gave him my hat


The tree tilts
The snowman wobbles
		         ….the wind laughs


The neighbor’s dog
Peed on our snowman
I told the kids
    …“he’s not potty trained.”


I wonder
If Santa likes
Sugar, lactose and gluten free
…COOKIES?????

Gracefully she wobbles up the tree with wild ambitions nobody understands. 
Still she carries on relentless and holds her head up high.

                                                              the caterpillar's
                                                              fuzzy dream to be
                                                              a ballerina

I set my glass on the table 
It wobbles as I set it down fast 
In a rush
Sirens is all I here
Everything is muffled
I ran out to the front yard
Glass still wobbling, moving closer to the edge

All in slow motion
All I hear is the thudding of my heart
The glass, frozen, on the edge 
My heart stops 

Crash

I hit the floor
The glass shatters to the smallest of pieces 

I'll never see that glass the same as I once did...

Her room’s door has a goddamned latch,
Wherefore people don’t her sight catch
Seldom would open to a knock,
On that her heart ‘real igneous rock… 

Of those she’d turned down I, First Batch
While I had good shirt, not a patch 
My role to speak, hers to speech block;
Her choicest move: a glance at clock;
One starts with her, one won’t sleep snatch
Like one watching a World Cup Match…

But know I when her age doubles
Pride with cursed vanity wobbles....

PRINCESS SUE
A Sedoka

                                      Princess Sue smiles pink
                                   Eyes give off bubbles of love
                                  A chess piece gets a move on
                                         The prince of Inda
                                    Comes up smiling dimple
                                Princess Sue sings voice wobbles
