The Antics Of A Yoyo Thief

Potential life of as juvenile delinquent
(ala bam mean future streetwise thug)
stopped dead in the tracks – manacles
the above two lines hopefully gives hint
nearly changing changing life of one boy
an undersized puny kid 
whose aborted theft stint
constitutes the gist of following poem.

Now scores of years 
after botched minor theft penchant

The Antics of a Yoyo Thief

Now scores of years 
after botched minor theft penchant 
courtesy security guard
analogous to inquisitorial trenchant
unforgettable verbal lashing
(suppressing me ululation to vent)
unwittingly arresting snitch behavior
plus potential life of crime.

Not a peep passed thru 
pursed lip o' mine -
aye vaguely attest
what age ten? eleven? twelve? 
of following anecdote at best
educated guess, but no
doubt yours truly
with figurative heart

Yoyo Heart

Open palm, with calm, rolling it up and releasing my 
heart
My small heart is left dangling on a string
Tugging back and jerking in full speed
My small heart curls up
Into your palm
CALM
Releasing it swiftly
It gingerly rolls down again
Bobbing up and down at free will
You yank it up, dangling it on a string
Open palm, with calm, rolling

Played With Duncan Yoyo

Played with Duncan Yoyo

Wherever we would have to go,
They played with a Duncan yoyo,
And be content,
We had meant;
Threw into wind when it did blow.

Yoyo Weight

Eating celery just won't do
every day on the scale makes me mighty blue
Lose one pound gain back two
using a laxative is just too crude

           One sunny day I'll be thin again
            my metabolism will

The Antics of a Would Be Mamas Yoyo Thief

The Antics Of A Would Be Mama's Yoyo Thief
(now a penchant with less Zionist trenchant ululation to vent.)

Not a peep passed thru mine -
aye vaguely attest
what ten? eleven? twelve? age
of following anecdote at best
guest, but no
doubt yours truly
with figurative heart in chest
scared puny meek boy

tight lipped silently confessed
to foiled attempt, sans trying
unsuccessfully to steal a

Yoyo

am a yoyo
gloom and bloom
up and down
I shine the up 
and ride the down

Negation Yoyo

Razor flashes with inner roads to
the psyche. Cataclism unfortunite tides
rush without volume nonsecular
invisible unseeking with direction
scattering whereupon I see it coping no  sense
of withdrawal upbeat puzzled why's
love is not blind not anything existential,
pup tents military green spray to every
corner worldly pleasures gaping mouths
verbal garbage stinking syallbles tinkling
teeth blow winds nonsense wheels turn
forever still asking

The Yoyo Player

The yo-yo player set it off, it is spinning on its length
He knew it was his skill his talent and his strength.

To let the yo-yo go with a flick of his wrist
If he had done it right it would run and then twist.

It would spin and roll away as far it could
But on its return

The Yoyo Man

I was a kid about eight years old
Went shopping with Mom downtown
The Duncan man’s in store I was told
Isle three, where yoyos are found

I had a yoyo I got somewhere
Could make it go up and down  
I saw there was a crowd over there
Checked it out, here’s what I found

A man had kids watching

you toyed with my heart
like a yoyo on a string
a frayed string that broke

No More Yoyo, We'Re Goin' Solo

Our laughter is no longer 
Harassed under the strict metered 
Of syllabic counts

At a distance 
You neither hear a sound 
Nor a word

Yet whenever there is
A pandemonium, 
Be aware, you’re not in a flea market

But...in the mirthful grin 
Of their malicious lips,
Thank goodness, we’re now on our own!

Yoyo

Life is like a yoyo
It bounces up and down
Back and forth
And just when you think it is about to un whine 
It pulls itself back up again.
