A LUXURY I WISH

...In my comfy corner, a little space

A place of my own, as soft as a lace

Lays a long chair of queen’s height with a wooden base

With a rocking style for a ride at a mild pace

So excited for swimming and rafting
Mom got our swim vests with suits
Dad just brought his parachutes

Unintended Innuendo

...We spoke in semaphore of smirks,
A dialect of sideways quirks—
Our mouths full up with mirage and pun,
Unconscious artists come undone.

She, a flower in a field of noise,
Parsed our pose as pr...

Frank’s sense all but gone as architect-

Blue-green algae tanks | engineer-BREW

...I’m contemplating braces 
My belts don’t seem to work
They just don’t seem to get a grip

With vests of neon green
Go walking down the street; it is
A charming urban scene.

They’re anywhere from two to four,

And cottonmouth vipers. Accordions, fiddles, and rub board vests 
Make their ramble through the undergrowth hot on the trail
Of a sultry midsu...
