epileptic fit apoplectic twits bloggod class

 

delilah just gave a trim,

The fortitude special 

let me buff yer halo

venus caterwauled 

some pompous twit, their incandescent 

parlevous rusty

if the shoe fits, 

a wooden spoon between the teeth

in agitated modes

makes mutter hubbard saintly

never say never said never 

pulling the locks in class 

samson weakly howled 

pay attention, charon for zeus piped up

we take venmo, slouch 

wooden nickels

smearamid (2020)

one foot in the stave of a stove moat

searching for meaning's orphans

derelict as advertised, and full of high dollar vinegar

attracting more sugar than flies can

pass thru an oligarch's sty

splintered into bacon only francis can sell

on a seashore swilling troll snores

harpy harpooning lampooned hydrofoils

skimming over the hedge fund miasma

at once encircling

and at once disappearing into reverse smoke

tossing unmeant utopias

atop the smearamid

grasshopper (2019)

grasshopper on the warm autumn wall, sun

rounding the rough plank

getting painted, perfect leaves 

welcome the veneer of human effort, 

well until

i come across a squished squirrel in the residential

street, i pull and fling

it by its death costume 

to some grassy crevasse

by a fence, that's better

2019

pits gold zephyrs (2019)

Wind sweeping tree tops so luscious,

Threnody of poverty

Aisles of leaves unwrapping

Evening's gold bars

From nocturne's sultry cogs,

Tossing all human care

Like an olive oiled salad. 

2019 

engine thru the roof (2019)

Good if children never know existentialism

Or sophistry or cognitive dissonance,

Ostriches are make believe chickens

And Charles Dickens was a

Chimney sweeper of clean coal

And Twain appeared in blackface only

To be stricken from the curriculum

Used to mop up the

Overflowing levees

Good, better to never know the arc

Of history or donny darkos

Apotheosis

Or the ways to neutralize satire

Or how to eat spaghetti with

Both spoon and fork,

That's not existential

That's team twerk.

chirp cats birding (2019)

under apple roots chrome gnarled

merry her basket all berries bursting,

chirp cats birding.

watercolors all time revealed,

priceless spider tagged whisper.

trout paused under olive pelt shadows,

history pastiche drunk on fertile 

weanings over sun scoured feet magnets

calendar collects as stream pools

murky his brisket all brimming

beside grail grackles grinning,

suspect.
