Nun of That, Now

...Turning right against the light’s
Illegal in New Yawk.

In other places, no such law
Exists, so often plates
Of cars which turn w...

Aliens As Fallen Angels

...Be on guard, as you watch
The skies, dark skies.
Weirder that, bulbous owled
For haunts of eyes.

These, in place of what swirl
Innocent starred
May, down at you burst, burn.
Heaven-disbarred...

Wonderful West Wind

...Wonderful West Wind was weirdly wildly, wistfully whacky,
Blesiegingly bullied, bustered, boasted, batted both barns and boats
Soothing serene sage serendipitous Sun subsequently surmised
Weird Wi...

Camelot

...
O Camelot! O Camelot!
The winds have changed, the land got hot!
Though dromedaries are quite neat,
A bactrian's hard to unseat,

......If this was Heaven, it made little sense,
would not they get newcomers all the time?
How could this seem so bizarre to their mind?
Wouldn’t this have to have happened to them?

Leaves my jaws pretty tight
Lips tremble despite the confusion so slight
I remain just calm to serve on right
But I see a night in broad daylight

Halloween Bus Driver

...She came in all sassy and wanted to drive a school bus.
We told her our school is unusual and she said that is fine.
We have witches, warlocks, gargoyles, a ghost name of Gus.
She said my kin are ...

Spring Has Changed

...Spring forms changed.
Jasmine limps.
Corn plaques shirred.

Shore is without breeze now. 
I didn't grasp my own home!
Public blame current flow. 
Pulse spurred over the dome.

Mccormick Family Reunion

...His eyes were green but no one noticed
Even though he was the only green-eye in the room.
His hair was red, but so were all of ours
We are McCormicks so it makes sense right?

The thing we were ...

Go Have Fun Hurry

...The clever current galaxy is cock-eyed, surreal, and night is day.
2020 has been weirder than weird, almost everyone has had to pay.
If the internet went out forever, I would not greet it with surp...

Cunningly Crafted

...Life has its ups and downs, wins and losses;
that's the nature of the games people play.
We all strive to be one of the bosses,
and yet, fate seldom seems to work that way.
