Premium Member The Whistlepig Jig
The Whistlepig Jig I sat upon my porch one day my pennywhistle for to play. When out stepped Mr. Whistle-pig, I thought to dance a jig. “I left the comfort of my den,” says he,”to satisfy my yen. I hear this high-pitched trilling noise, emanating from your little toy.” “This is no little toy”, says I, “so what do you imply?” “I do not like...

Oak the Birdwhistle
I have a broken birdwhistle. It sits on my desk Underneath the harsh lamplight. Its end is chipped And I don't know if it still works. I've been too scared to try it, Cause if it doesn't That means I wasted my money. According to my parents, anyway; They gave me that money after all. He's really pretty though. I named him Oak, Because when I got...

Writer from Within
The less I move my lips at my 4:00 am Saturday morning sessions The more These words are trees standing still beside a racing river A long way away Freight train bores the night Moon without light Its alto horn Projects from nowhere entangles everywhere Uninhibited By barren maples and icy roads Abandoned homes and snowdrifts A shadow walking his dog under planets of street lights All powerless...

Penny Whistle Blues
He sold penny whistles From inside the little sack Slung over one shoulder And hanging down his back And he filled them full of magic So for one whole day Anyone who bought one Learned how to play And he taught them to dance And he taught them to sing And he taught them jazz And he taught them to swing And each penny whistle knew One hundred...

Obeying the Whistle
A thin-lipped nun blows her whistle. An acre of concrete ground stops playing, acting-out our brief make-believe lives. Reality is a cold wind chewing at pale knees, gray shorts and blue skirts. Catholic children forget their names, their made-up names as well. as they march into the bricked block where classrooms are already shouting instructions. Old now, we forget how it felt, as we filed into the bare-boned...
