The nightmare after the election. Apologies to Mr. Moore.
T’was the night after the election And all through the land Every shady banker Was holding out their hand. Ma with her earplugs And I with my nightcap Had just settled in To watch TV without all the political bullcrap. When down in Washington D.C. there rose such a clatter I sprang from my Lazy-Boy...

UFOs (from out of the past)
All so grand descending from the Mother Ship In and out of our lives they invisibly slip. Their must be some hidden away Somewhere Scientists busy solving the mystery Of just exactly what device is the Captains Chair? Roswell Roswell What did ye see? Nothing or something Or something that was...

The soft kiss.
I would love to kiss…. so that I’m the one you miss, writhing in your sleep. Was it a dream or real? You smile, remembering the memories we made. Sleep evades as longing wells up, desires fires burn and glow, passions embers smoldering under the covers. You can’t get me out of your head, What Was It...

A silly French poem
Would you like to go to France And do the can-can dance? Or maybe climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower And just sit and look around for about an hour? We could spend some time in a sidewalk café Eating cheese, drinking wine and parlezing all day. I’d rent a Citroene Take the hubcaps off And like...

Sounds like a country song to me...

I tried to block yore exit But I hadn’t counted on what you’d do nexit I didn’ think you’d run over me But I thought you had more since Than to gun...

A scary thought
A black cat’s howl arches it’s back and rides a broom over the moon. Things flutter just out of sight it’s Halloween the frightful night when ghosts suffuse up through the ground then on my door they do pound. I know what would tame them and if would sure be handy had I not forgot to buy some candy.

The order of chaos
Time was When things were shiny and new Life swirled round and about Children ran and laughed. Those echoes have long since died out As nature slowly takes back what once was And order descends to ruin. What if there was a magic portal To see the past through the life of these buildings When they...

Autumn Falls
Lonely winds rattle the brittle leaves, a weak applause for their mates that have just done their last high-dive. The chill wind slices through my jacket, making my teeth into tiny jackhammers. I wouldn’t be surprised to see an icicle hanging from my nose. I bend to the task of chopping wood, fresh...

Rainy afternoon blues.
I sat down with a book the pages dimly lit by the weak light spilling through the window. The raindrops sucked most of the light up and drove it into the ground. I looked out of the fogged up window and thought how I’d like to draw your face in the filmy moisture gathered there, but no matter how...
