After listening to Johnny Winter...
As I slid under the door I looked around the room Blue was all I saw Guitar strings bending this way and that The sound of a broken heart And a soul stomped flat Picked up and poured out Of a Fender Stratocaster Liquid like the sun Even the sad song Brought a contagious smile Spreading from face to...

Did you ever wonder?
What if I was Paris Hilton? I think my dress would fit funny. My disposition would be sunny cause I would have all the money in the world. What if I was Jimmy Hoffa six feet under still trying to make an offa to the underworld from the labor union for some business they’d be doin’. What if I was Mae...

My obsession
Something is banging outside my front door Don’t let it in Don’t know where its been Its too scary I don’t want to see it no more. Every time I turn my head I can’t avoid its stare I’m even losing my hair From this constant dread. Every radio station Every TV show Every one wants to know What is the...

A nurse Ratchet rhyme
Jack and Jill went up to Capitol Hill to ask for a federally funded bailout. You see, Jack had recently traded his beanstalk for a heavily transportation based mutual fund. When stocks went down they lost their crown and retirements came tumbling after. A diller a dollar what makes you holler? My...

I know I shouldn't, but I just can't help it!
Song for octomom I know a girl with fourteen kids, she makes her parents flip their lids. People are so rude and mean, they just call her a litter poppin’ welfare queen. Chorus: Down at the clinic filled with rubes the doctor has his hands full of pipettes and test-tubes. Singin’ “oh baby spread...

Bite Me!
I am not an apple Or a tree But I surely Might like to be. Neither am I An Oscar Mayer Weiner Neener, neener, neener. I like it when the rain Tortures my post-adolescent brain And the hole that is in my head Is the one I stuff with bread! Bite Me! Writhing worms in my cranium Are driving me insanium...

From the past
Cast in a mold. Ugly I feel it pressing, saying, change, welcome! my cold cruel conformity. Let me wrap myself about you until you become no one, in a crowd of no ones. Struggling, I keep my foot out, my fingers dig at a crack, unless I escape the future I face forever running in circles, going...

The strange love of Rinaldo and Stephanie
Rinaldo and Stephanie were those special lovers, soul mates. When they were near each other their nerves would stand on end, the air smell sweeter and little birds would twitter in their heads. This story is based on a dream I just had. I present it here in abbreviated form just to get down the...

An ode to myself
I woke up this morning Busted down sad and blue I needed a little smile So I knew just what to do I clicked on that old food4thought My face just lit up He really knows how to hit the spot! He can run prose Right up your nose And if he takes the time He can bend a rhyme So it looks like some...

And so at this moment
A moment history has been Churning Toiling Pushing inexorably forward Glacial in it’s progress And now that it’s finally here The dream Becomes a man Who must fulfill a dream Or be deemed a failure. Not just for his own ambitions But the ambitions of those like him The downtrodden. Born into poverty...
