Planets
...The rings of Saturn are empty.
They smell burning.
Moons which circle planets which are otherworldly.
We forget about them, sometimes.
Venus is catching on fire.
Mercury is always being silly...

Teeny Weeny - Bawdy
...There lives a gentleman from Luff
Who walks everywhere in the buff
His weeny is teeny
He calls it his winky
A stump that can't fill a cream puff.
Ladies would be left in despair
But he didn't...

I am Hilarious Tonight
...I was not always this clever, this funny, this incredibly smart
But it is two a.m. somewhere, and I am hilarious; it is my art.
Weirdly, I was not in any way exciting before I got to this bar.
But...

ART!
He painted my death,
With such dedication I've never seen before.
Every stroke of his brush, on that paper, marking out each curve, twist, and turn my body made
As I writhed in pain.

In cricket what is the definition of Stoic?
Who is the limited edition who debunks tradition
Who is the true rendition of heroic?
Pay heed to a rare breed from a special creed

Little Hoarder Me
...I deep-sixed toys, games, a bed and a picture book
Our font porch now has a much more organized look
In May I kept hundreds of junk I did not need
Crayolas, pinwheels, and blue petunia seed
Wei...

Ostentacious Showy Crow
...Here comes the uppity bejeweled crow
Carrying her loud beak just so and so
She is wearing a cape as white as snow
Her beady eyes turn on me; they have a glow
Flashing gemstone rings are on her ...

Hunger
...I have to eat enough.
I opened up everything.
Give them a patch of lawn.
Or maybe a toast.
The first thing I learned.
Inside of cooked shopping trips.
Could be a cookie on the sidewalk.

Too Loud to Stay Loved
...My tongue, a beast that bites me first.
I wanna shut it down,
never to speak again.
My voice, a wild river,
Yet keeps flooding, careless of consequence.
My lips, in a race,
while everyone hop...

I Write in Tens
...When I write I write in tens
Ten poems per session
Some are insanely silly
Weirdly enough, understood by many
Sometimes commenters write me ten sentences
With suggestions
When I have only...

watercress loving friend named Bess
...Bess’s expressions were grotesque
Most usually weirdly cheerless
She is under unusual duress
Her family is an utter mess
Bess is playing poker more or less
Her deadpan expression not needless

Put eggs on high that he was trying to fry
This is a true story, assured my neighbor Vi...

Void
...Looking out of the window,
Staring into droplets of rain
Drawing patterns of emptiness
on my window panes…
I try to comprehend,
The very meaning of life
When all I could think of is
‘Sans,’ ‘s...
