Lizard Minded. Capitalism
It is said
It is only
Moral Capitalism
That can save
Our way of life

Or we will be
Forever Chained
To the Lizard Minded
Capitalism
We Suffer From

That can save
Our way of life

Maturing
With every decade of your life
As I know more of you
I adore and love each version
Exponentially
You are a bud
Forever blooming
so eternally I fall
afresh in love…

Could You Come Over And Fix It?
Hi. I'm your new neighbor.
Sorry to have you see me naked.
My air conditioner broke down.
Heat in my apartment made me strip.
Could you come over and fix it?

My Problem With An Outdoor Advertising Thing
I know it's a billboard.
But I get excited by those eyes.
So, I closed the blinds.

A rose by any other name
At the Aldi's checkout today
I bent over to smell a bunch of roses
Capitalism had stolen their fragrance.
I mean, really, a rose without a scent.

new sun
that
morning's
ember,
how it
jumps,
it flies
on the
edge of
rumors,
each
descending
into the
corners
of
my room,
scraping
the
darkness
away,
leaving
my world
smoldering
while the
sun's
bloom
moves on.

She Looked And Saw A Gun Aimed
Linda was getting herself ready.
She has been invited to Amanda's party.
Then, she heard a noise.
She Looked And saw a gun aimed.
Her dead corpse was found in Falmouth.
