Elderly woman hit by a bus.
She was elderly people,
So what's all the fuss?
She  had a full life, 
What more can you say?
These elderly people,
They get in the way.
When you are old 
You should stay at home.
What  was she thinking?
going out all alone.
And as I read on I thought,
Can this be?
This elderly woman

Though they thought they were in command,
God’s timing is perfectly grand.
Expectant with seven,
there’s chuckles in heaven,
“And you thought that this was unplanned?”

A tomato met a non-tuber plant 
sweet music
a birth to what is known
as potatoes, these days also called fries
Just think if the tomato had not 
been so unfaithful trying it on with
any passing plant
What would  our diet be like 
without the beloved spud 
I read this in a paper that extols the free press
With the mild hand

Read All About It

I can't bring myself
to read the front page news
with which they string us along
as portrayed by the views
of those with a vested interest
or the rest with an axe to grind
who must think we're all
just deaf dumb and blind
to the truth of which there's more
in the speech balloons
of the funny characters
in the Sunday cartoons
it's all a

Harvard’s a black hole, info wise.
So, let’s see.. what’s going on? What’s in the news?
Anything? Anything?

Hot take..
Not to be spicy and negative,
but sometimes i’m too much myself.
Too comfortable, open and vocal.
I can be opinionated.
Who knows who’s listening?
It could be anyone.
“That’s not red, it’s carmine,” I blirt.
There’s a rise and rush of feelings around the table.

Donnie T!

Look at me I’m Donnie T!
Unbound by reality
Out of my head
But my hat is bright red
It’s me!
I’m Donnie T…ee…ee

I have a great slogan
I’m pals with Joe Rogan
(Great guy. Very short.)
It’s me!
I’m Donnie T!

A real stable genius
I have a yuge 
(don’t judge my hands)
(they’re quite large for a man)
Say’s me 
I’m Donnie T…ee…ee

Work for me you’ll

they had heard the owl was wise
his intelligence was mediocre at best
his ideas were not even his own
He got them from Knox News

If Knox recommended meal worms
Owl ate meal worms
If Knox said the sky was red
Owl thought the sky was red

a fowl ruled by suggestions and subliminal clips
Owl was wise in no way
Yet many flocked

UNNEWSWORTHY

It’s as if the cameras have gone blind
the inks bled dry on every page
young souls grow up knowing only war
their cries muted though echoes rage.

The crisis in Yemen slips from view
no longer fit for breaking news
their names consigned to dusty files
their suffering ignored.

What truly happened to this land?
No press to trace its haunted streets
no orbiting

Each year Memorial Day causes much lament,
and today will be viewed as another life recap.
A day we honor heroes whose lives were spent,
who, for freedom, willingly stood in the gap.

Too many families are attached to someone,
who served country and didn’t return intact.
Body bags, their ticket home to a loved one,
today, they remember that door knock’s
