The truth not fictional
If you don't get the principle
Then it's not clearly visible

No it was not biblical
Or mythical

Zero to do with being political
Yet they'll treat you li...

Boy and Barn

...Bitty birds scuffle and flounce
under the roofed-in.
Barn dusted, rafters crust and whiffle.
Snuffle go the whiskered,
the mousy muzzle's
all along the bent beam wood.
A pepper powdering

What the heck make my neck all stiffle?

...In 9th grade Mr. Adams told our class 
(with buck shot in his eyes) 
"That one day life will scare the $hit out of you".
Well, we all giggled like little barn owls - 
Didn't really know or care w...

...Throw it, roll it,
  Bounce it, pass it
Dribble it, bobble it
  Kick it, toss it, miss it

Pitch it, hurl it
  Heave it, sling it
Fastball, slider

Autumnal Strain

...Clouds from overcast heart rise,
                                And spread-
                 In sombre grey shade,
From horizon to horizon-
Over the clear,blue canvas.
I have yet more to lend!

Loser

...Twirling whirly whiffle spots
Until the golden neon rots.
Baggy, red, balloon-pop eyes
Do shun the evil orb outside.

Could you ...
