Cats and cars don’t mix.

Thick black marks Pointed to the poor little kitty Lying lifeless in the road. Thick black marks Ran away from the poor little kitty Still warm when he found her Yet she was gone Like the heart of the driver That ended her days. Gently he carried her the half-block To their house Her fur so soft Now... Sign in to see full entry.

Hello?

Helloooo….. I shout. No one Answers back. Am I all alone? Is the world shut down? All the lights darkened and black? Helloooo….. Again A stifling quiet. It is causing my brain to riot. I can define life on my own terms. But without anyone to interpret I might as well be a pile of worms. I stand tall... Sign in to see full entry.

A new wrinkle.

I stayed too long in the shower The instructions said one minute I languished for an hour. The water was nearly freezing and the shivers made it so I couldn’t hold on to the soap I was squeezing. My face, now undecipherable as an ancient rune. I once looked like Paul Newman. Now I just look like a... Sign in to see full entry.

Love's embers.

Old couple, in the handicap parking space. She struggles with her walker while he stumps around with his cane to lend a gentle, weathered hand. White hair ruffled in the wind matches the snow on distant mountaintops. Love’s fire still flickers, now gently glowing embers. A quaking heart replaced by... Sign in to see full entry.

I saw you and immediately I knew there could never be another, my heart wanted yours to be its only lover. That day was total bliss, my pulse pounded with our tender first kiss as I stood there holding your hands my delirious brain was making future plans. Then it looked as if my happiness would...

What a day.

It was a day that made no sense, like the Far Side on Acid only stranger and weirder. I dreamed I went to Australia, but when I got down under I was still standing upright, I just couldn’t get it through my head and when I did the wound was horrible. Now all my thoughts have leaked out so I have to... Sign in to see full entry.

The box of snakes.

Writhing, T W I S T G I N Reviled by all who see them, the snakes are people too. Or are people snakes? P O L I T I C I A N S The used-car salesman of the animal world, hissing “lowest prices in town” Their jaws unhinge, snakes jaws do too. November and everyone has a flute, thinking they are snake...

Fear World

The world where I live Is a strange and fearful place I can’t go out Without sunblock on my face. So is it Global Warming Or merely an Ice age forming? Scientists disagreement fills me With fear.

If only I new.

I looked around for an idea that’s new. What I found is there are so few. All the people that have lived and breathed, have tried everything that can be conceived.
