ReBekahBehave said:i heard him
he said himself
on a track
makin that trapp
talkin type trash
boy that wack

sat to attack
so subtle like
his voice crass
his body tight
im all like
that ain't right
he sat light
crawling on floors
making a fool
wishing for more


Write according to the three words of the poet before you and leave three words to inspire the poets after you.

Said Trump to  n'Yahoo

"lets fight gravity
til it surrenders

it'll be tremendous"

..that's no fabrication

and
"would you like two

or one

I'm happy enough
with either
so long as you both
agree

but could you
hold off
on the settlements
for a bit

at least until
we work something out"

[ something to whet The Riddler's whistle ]

beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder

to crimp her hair she had to use
the special gadget
just so they stayed in place
in little zigzagged curls

after a while her hair fell off
not that she cared, she had
many wigs
all crimped as well

during a dance where
her partner gave her a little spin
her wig fell off
showing her ugly mottled scalp

not that he cared
he married her after all

a cartridge filled with their private films
was kept in their house
to remind them of their younger selves

not that they needed it
being young at heart.

same ol' shinanegan :
hop, skip and a shindig

a haon, a dó, a trí
a haon, a dó, a trí

me legs are fallin' off me
from all the hullabaloo

built,  waxed, gruel

its a matter of how one's built
to cope with problems that
might come rolling in from nowhere

dog's teeth don't slide off waxed legs
as at times problems are like that
just popping in and boffing one's nose

worse come to worse
one try to survive on a thin budget
without much hope of improvement

anyway, gruel is better than salted water.



territorial, monkeys, handsome

empty streets I freeze
knowing yet not knowing the phase
artless matrices   arterial surrenders
with nil corner pedestals nor shallow flights

acrid limes of the past I drink in to bleed
in clog and clots.     your plasmic suns
I breathe in
[now]
red coralline opacities
of my necklace pulsates
[just]
your words your name



anomalous, camouflage, tinge

poet Anonymous

"show me a road which isn't anomalous and I'll show you an up hill struggle to no where" -some drunk paraplegic

nowhere,
with a tinge of mystique
and a steep feckin' hill
to get there

damned camouflage..

The thought of taking you back makes the bile burn my throat and want to take
My love for you knows no boundaries, no limit, no scale
Desire burning hot like the fires in the furnaces of the seven circles of hell

I had seen
noses
cut from faces
those pieces
later eaten by mice
it was shame
left in the corners
eeking out
existence
scratching, making noises.
Some were lucky
warmed
by hay beds, catching the shadows
softened by candlelight


Bread, water, concussion

The 🍞 bread was gone
nothing left to eat but porridge
And cold water

To boot it
her man had a concussion
when he fell down the stairs
now he talked to the door knob
thinking it his long lost uncle.

he held on to his sanity,
what was the use of sinking
into the rage that engulfed him
was he a cuckold
or was she just a whore

he sat there as still as Buddha
gripping his gun
waiting for the right time

he must have fallen asleep
he started up, hearing
a familiar jingle
it was her walking like an angel
towards him
and his heart melted.


modesty, hangar, crashed

His escape was just inside
the old hangar
yeah, the propellers a little bent
the flaps kinda sag
but even though
it had been crashed
he knew
how to get off the ground.
Modesty took no effort,
The pride, simple
a little wax
a little gas
and away we'll go

nothing in life is definite
he told his daughter
but you can hope for an achievement
if you work hard enough

she looked at him
sitting on an angular chair
looking so adoringly young
he knew she would be alright

As young as she was
being the  proprietor
of a bookstore was
achievement enough

he sighed.
