My Corona
I.
Some days ago,
way back when everybody was
reporting to work,
The Secretary said,
"Tell me whats going on, Robert.
Your kids go to that school"
The school made it into the news,
because a boy named sue
got the corona virus,
and went to school while
having a fever.
'Well,Shirley, (the secretary), My daughter
has not sat next to that boy,
but her girlfriend does, so
there is the connection to me,:
Boy---Girlfriend--daughter'
A few minutes later,
I am called to the office. ...

Yes yes
Let sleeping dogs lie,
But personally I feel
They should tell
The truth.
But personally I feel
They should tell
The truth.

The arts of Courtship in the Carolinas
In the smaller villages of North and South Carolina,
when the town's young men and women reach a certain
number of single eligible bachelors, the available virgins will be invited
to prepare a stew. Each eligible bachelor then is invited, on a certain
fourth Sunday, to taste test the stews. When the bachelor finds the stew
most appealing to him, he will sit himself down, in front of it.
If there is a conflict, such as another bachelor also wishes to sit next to that bowl of stew,
He will negotiate with the first to see if they can reach a...

700
I bought another car,
It's 700
It needs a new engine,
Or so the guy says in his ad
But really it just leaked oil.
So I drive out and pay for it.
Then we meet at the DMV
So I am studying the Google map
How to take a bus there but I have to walk the last 3 miles, which will take about an hour, but I turn in sattellite view and see a forested area, that if I cut
Thru it I can maybe save 20 minutes
So I see a little trail into the forest
So I take it, it is entered behind an old Kmart. Soon I arrive at an area that is...

Abina
I met Abina in 1994 during one of the war crime raging attacks
the Serbs inflicted on the Muslim ethnic groups
they were cleansing from Yugoslavia
through executing the men,
raping the women,
Driving anybody who could run, out.
UN peacekeepers were used as pawns,
even kidnapped by the Serbs,
to leverage the international community tostay out of theitr atrocities.
I met Abina when cleaning up the aftermath of
a mortar shell attack on a medium rise apartment complex.
Abina was the only survivor of her family of 7, ...

Tripping out
Yearss ago
I googled an old girlfriend
Some record popped up,
A marriage license.
Oh well, I was glad enough.
A few months ago, I googled again
Abina lives in Mayhapsville
Only a couple hours away.
No husband.
No kids?
I debated driving over
Knocking on her door
But after a few months
The raging internal debate
Subsided
I come home Monday a frenzied day
A FedEx sticker on the door
Signature required.
I wasn't expecting a package.
Tracking number says 0.2...

chew your pill
Jack ate some under cooked meat.
By the nex day, something had begun to grow in his mouth.
Soon, it began it's slow gravel down his windpipe.
He could feel the bacterial attack heading towards his
Lungs.
But Jack did not worry,
He sauntered into the kitchen, and
Opened up the pill bottle,
shook out three
and popped them in.
Soon he could feel the little creatures retreating
So Jack headed off to bed happy that he had averted
being sick as a dog.
Twenty four hours later,
