maybe they just need some oinkment
when pigs get laryngitis
i suppose they feel somewhat disgruntled
english teacher's nightmair
observed in a book store:
"sale - all spelling workbooks 50% of!"
too much of a good thing
poetry teacher: "i can't say enough about not
saying too much"
paternal paradox
my grandfather once told me
"never trust anyone... trust me on this"
where the h am i?
to a dictionary editor
'h' is the middle of nowhere
such a critic
i tried that new restaurant on the moon
good food but no atmosphere
a pun further analysis
the bonfire sank my boat
you can't have your kayak and heat it too

new office is hilarious
broom closet
messy desk with someone else’s water bottle
a variety of papers and workbooks, markers, strewn around
no cleaning supplies.
large enough space for two chairs
a filing cabinet and a child’s desk
where the mess is
I get to clean someone else’s mess before I sit down.
wow!
Wonderful welcome
No key yet either.
I got here too early.
The janitor lets me in.
He is the third one I have met.
The other two are bosses and not nice.
He leans in and says “I hate those two.”
I figure it will be okay now.

pots of very hot tea
silence
dog on the quilt in my bed
rests his head on my lap
MAC, workbooks, spread around
writing
answering
students are sleepy, clients are lazy
rain smudges my outdoor view
close my eyes rest back on the pillows
cant move
but why should I
a rare and perfect day
