TWINKLING LIGHTS


twinkling lights
strung along fencer rail
decorations delight


having held the hand
of a hand no other hand
ever before has held,
has nothing to do with
price of prime ham,
or chased by a hog
disgusted with prime ham
being held in a hand.


up to our necks in poetry,
prose and leftover spaghetti
from last night's supper.

and poetry has finally
come to this.
does this make you want to
cry or go take a piss?

I cry while pissing.
save yourselves! run!

AROUND

Image
was messing around when around came around, started messing with me. messed me up pretty good. won't ever be the same. in a bunch of pain, all because was foolish enough to start messing around with around. some fools know no shame. around set me straight. Spencer Kope-Collecting the Dead a rendezvous with peanut-head, in proximity with a feather-head. assail those varmints! grim prognosis till further notice. conscience not required here, although, considering changes. whatever flows goes. ho, but rhetoric flows so beautiful; so smooth and evenly; such loveliness.  cheers! no hypocrites here, unless one considers peanut-head. Rambo has left the building, chasing after Elvis. nothing dignified here, folks; try next blog. but alternatives, what this does to sensitive sense of smell. sniffer alert! isles zero to infinite. tightrope dancing, with compression calling: grab your partner, ...
