Poet Introduction
Published in small mags in US and England years ago.
Halloween deception
The witch sprinkled her brew
Adding mint to the poisonous stew
Hoping the old bat on it would choke
But drats! he loved it
And asked for more.

His ice cream cone
Was a delicious choco double
Proud of it he was
Licked it with glee
Tripped, fell on his knees
And it and he ended up in the puddle.

Lights
I just purchased a few lightbulbs
I wish there was a possible way
To plug them to my brain
So I might see some light
As my heart
Is full
Of darkness
I wish there was a possible way
To plug them to my brain
So I might see some light
As my heart
Is full
Of darkness

Unease
Somehow just don't feel so good right now
Just saw two black cats in a row
One in the alley
One crossing the road
Not a good omen
As the leaves are also falling
Like so many
Dead bodies.

Shock......and relief
There was a sigh of relief
For the latest mass killer
Had quite legally
Purchased his gun
Just imagine the shock
The horror
The cries and the outrage
If he had not

Degrees of severity
I have a B.A. (Bad Ass) degree
I have an M.A. (Mad As Hell) degree
And I have a Ph.D. (Phuck De World) degree
All I need now is some post graduate work to do
With my AR-15
And my education will be complete.

Lady from Paris
There was this lady from Paris
Who enjoyed consensual bliss
From one partner or another
Small or big did not matter
As long as sweet was the kiss.

Collisions
The flock of majestic birds
Flew in its usual V formation in the dark of night
In the distance the leader saw the light
Flew directly towards it
The flock ending up
Hitting the windows of the tallest building around
And crashing dead to the ground.

Prayers offered
It is so after each mass shooting
Same this time as the new house speaker
Offered prayers
A full AR-15 clip can trunkate a tree
Imagine what it does to a human body
Prayers
From all the MAGA GOP
(Except the one from Maine whose State
Experienced the latest shock....
And shocked him into offering
A different mind-set
Instead of useless prayers.

Beautiful Maine
Beautiful Maine
Where colorful autumn leaves
Add to its majesty.....
Then bullets fly through the night
A massacre
AR-15

Fatuous imbeciles
There they are
A squabbling bunch of fatuous imbeciles
Squabbling while the country is on hold
And forgetting that they have been elected
To serve the people and defend the Constituiton
Not there to kneel in front of their
MAGA god.

His time has come
A dark and wintry night
Not a soul in sight
Except for a few spooky figures
On the front lawn coming to life
Moving towards the darkness of the house
The house dark except for a single candle light
The cheap recourse from the old fart
They love to roam in at times and give the old bat a scare
More so on this special night
More than a scare
Armed to the teeth with their garden tools
Enough of insults and unpaid wages from this real scrooge
The right omen was there, agreeing with their goal and their mood
The moment...
