My I self has intention
without strings to things
It asks, seeks love, looks outward
enjoying life mirror-free

Today I will smash the old computer and count the air between us
Today I will smash the old computer and count the air between us,
I will burn the books for warmth, letting the ashes paint my glasses with memories,
and I will uproot the withered plant, sowing its seeds in the plastic flower,
a monument of memory without growth, an altar of silent stagnation.
I will walk the crowded road,

SMASH POTATOES-
Culinary creativity
and experimentation
"Smashed potatoes...
I garnish them basil
Partially douse in salt"
Sensory delight
and pleasure
"Boredom in the water...
Popped and butter
What a tasty substance"
Joy and satisfaction
"Numb, numb yum mashed
Creative and playful
Expression of culinary delight
And the joy of cooking

Smash and Grab
He smashed that thing.
What was his mood?
He'd spoken to her, to him,
then to that dog, that cat.
What is the cause of a mood,
though often good, but -
oh dear! - so bad at times?
But then he returns. He’s here.
Does he always or merely often
think he's now had
a smashing event -
though only at times?
Or can he be

Smash--

boxes of gifts pageantry
evening dawns nighty

My Thoughts On Smash and Grab
My Thoughts On
Smash & Grab
Miracle Man
8-15-2023
Some big cities now enforce a change in their law,
which allows an enclave to freely smash and grab.
What offenders deserve is some “Shock and Awe”,
but lawmakers have chosen meaningless confab.
They allow hoodlums to freely take from another,
they smash and grab things that have cash appeal.
Their chosen way of life is

Shootings here, violence there
Smash-and-grab everywhere

Smash and Grab
Loot and nab.
Did your parents tell you, it is Ok to grab?
Stash and run.
Who taught you stealing is fun?
Job by mob.
Never had a job, for you I sob.
Crash the glass.
What care you, about the owner’s cash?
In and run out.
You sin and with joy, smile and shout.
In jails, you belong.
Lights out early and no

Prophet Abraham took an axe
He smashed the idols
He broke them except the biggest one in size
He hung the axe around his neck
When the people came back
They were shocked to see broken idols
They said who could have done this
Abraham have you done this to our gods?
He replied ask that big one
They said you know idols can't

Smash N Gran - For Succinct Contest
Strange things happened that last time my Grandpa drove to town
He scrapped a nine eleven and mowed a phone booth down
Folkies in the future will very likely sing
The man trashed a McDonald’s but spared a Burger King
It barely made the papers, just local news in some
Someone should have told them that there was worse to
