Sorry. I don't P in public so how about Z?
Zowie!
I'm a Zulu zen zealot from Zion

( Zealously? I've zaziness to spare)
Theez Zabaglione cozt zeven zloties.
Nowze I've reached my zenith,
my zip size now zeppelin size!
And iz zip zoned az a zoo az zee
zephyr breezes blowz...
I'm a zonked zombie now
eyze zippered for - snoozzzzz..

Thick With This...
This t h i c k n e s s…it’s a sickness that thoroughly haunts me,
With a thousand thrilling theatrics through and through,
And therewith in the pith of these themes who’d thought,
That the affable aesthetics would methodically taunt me too.
Therefore I find these thoughts so soothing and therapeutic,
Unearthing enthralling myths as if seeking a path to the truth,
Thus I must theorize, or perhaps hypothesize that going forth,
I am a thespian in the theater of the mind to my withered youth.
With every breath I slowly wreathe between tongue and teeth,
Seething with thirst immersed in depth of the sleuthing thread,
I feel this thesis throbs, though smoothly with thwacking thuds,
Tethering the nether part of my mouth and through to my head.
I think I’m thorny but this thingamajig is north of ordinary,
Amid a throng of thrusting verses thrashing in a chorus,
Bathing in the wealth of ideas and thoughts altogether,
With a strength three times t h i c k e r than my thesaurus.
Don’t dither and come hither,
It’s a threatening deathly thunder you’ll both love and loath,
Then let me spread, or rather slather the word so t h i c k l y,
With width and girth the thriving idiom is primed for growth.
T h i c k.

A Letter to the Host
My passion plays persuades and prepares a person to be pervaded
Professing a proverbial posture on performance and proclamation
But perhaps not all people are particularly perceptive to the principle
As such was the protocol politely pressed for this presentation
Please pardon my previous prevaricate and preemptive poem posted
I did not properly proofread the preconditions so plainly provided
You asked for P’s and my piece perturbed the peace and so to appease…
I present a more appropriate prose to replace the previously presided
I must portend that the potential pronunciations may produce plenty of spit
Like lips pouting and punching palpable damp pecks propelled into the air
So be prepared for a pair of peculiar and thought provoking presumptions
Probably to portray a more playful approach to pursue and pare
Perusing poetry like this puts pressure on composers to postulate like pros
Opening with persuasive positions and opinions to pull the passerby
With pun and patois, the probability of appeal pays a prosperous profit
Preferably to ponder on the primary purpose for all of our peers to pry
Simply put, the possibilities are perpetual to pen and point out the apparent
The policy and procedure of this comp prompts me as a poet to be complex
Like complete punishments, per say, of a paralleled prim and proper presage
So as to push and provide sharp replacements to stupefy, perplex and flex
So I propose my unpretentious appreciation for permitting me to participate
Hoping the spittle didn’t prevent from the possessive partaking of this project
When read publicly, the plainspoken open poem pours piles of sputum particles
Thus, I part because the top of my computer protective panel is completely wet

P
Playful piggies pound puddles,
preconceived ponderings produce
problems primordial.
Praise Pig Pharaoh!
Pauses prey piously, preventing
plump Pharisees proper prayers.
Purge phalic predatory principles,
purposely proving people plan poorly.

Proper poesy
Perhaps people prefer poetry
presented posthumously
personal preference precludes
perished popular pieces
profound pulp postulation
placates prime perception
propounded perfectly periodically.

Poppy
Poppies grew profusely beside a path
I plodded purposely whilst
Pondering the passion price
That pained me to punish
Penny
poppy poison perverse power play
With pictures in my possession
Of her physique in prime position
For perverted pleasure I had
Plenty
Pigment powder of the poppy's petal
Pretty pompous in their paddock
Prudent with precise prediction
I didn't pop my pill prescription so
Now I perceive a perpetual prison
Penalty
