Getting Late Now
It’s getting late now
I have a few more jobs to do
In the corner sweep up yesterday
As the clock runs down I grab my lunch pail
In the distance there’s a damage coming
We hear that there is a hurricane brewing
Boss says it isn’t so just keep working until
ya all go back to work it’s what you’re paid for
Clouds drop down heaven opens
The clouds dropped down hell opened
Boss says move your car out of the water
Flash flood warning upon us
Boss ignored the water...

Ugly Babies Make Wonderful Stories
One day a dog bit the index finger of his master
the dog ran off with a bloody finger,
before the master could catch him
The dog came to a river and went onto a wooden dock
the dog looked down into the water
he saw another dog with a bloody finger and a shadow of a man behind him
the dog had no idea what he was seeing
The master grabbed the dog by the collar,
wrestled with the dog for several minutes
the dog dropped the finger out of his mouth
the master picked up his mangled, chewed up index finger,
and went back home
...

It brings me joy
Listening to my beasts
Scare off the unwanted
In a world where men
Feeling so needed
For protection
I laugh as my beasts
Screech not to me
Command not of me
Deadly
More ferocious
Than any of them
In my solitude
Without you
And any inflated (ego synonym)
I dare them
Or any
Please
Dare trespass unto my land
Tell us please
And tell it again
We need a...

She's Obedient but Thinking Out of the Box
Could be my dog
Could be my wife
Could be my mistress
Could be my muse
Could be my massage therapist
Could be my dry cleaner
Could be my cardiologist
Could be
Or
?

Bird-Dog
I've been living in a tree
with a three legged dog
to keep me company.
He lies by the fire and wags his tail
to the smell of burning leaves.
There's a ladder to the ground
going halfway down
so I'm never sure what's coming
and though he loves to go for walkies
he doesn't do much running.
He couldn't chase a cat
or fetch a tennis ball
but he likes to sniff and pee
and to get back in the tree house
he clambers on his knees.
He'll eat a bird for...

I'm a Dog
I'm trotting along singing my song,
marking my territory here and beyond,
I'm a dog.
You'll see me here, there, everywhere,
especially in your underwear,
I'm a dog.
I smile, I frown, but never look like a
clown,
I'm a dog.
Yard's are a mess when I leave
my address,
I'm a dog.
A splish, splash, from me to your lap.
A burst, a thirst, number one's first.
A squat, a shock, a surprise, a thought,
all part of my plot.
A piece of doo from me to you,
I'm a dog.

Mortem Immaturus in Maio: A Scene of Putrescence, Grief, and Rain
The grime-coated walls of a cement-made bodega house a family of two; her mother cries out beside her, howling, a grief-stricken tune—it is a dog-eat-dog world after all. Four walls echo silence and few.
The buzz of an old lightbulb— swarmed by a myriad of flying termites, the quiet whine of my panicked and labored breath, the heaving and puffing of a mother dog.
The skies cry out above us: its tears soaking the unclipped growth—that surrounds concrete foundations. A reek astir, odor of: wet loam, mold, fungi, and wood encapsulates us in a bubble, suffocating, with a...

under pressure
not knowing where your mind is lately
wondering where you went with your heart
first, you stopped talking to me kindly
then ignoring the dog
giving me the cold shoulder if I question
what was wrong
having made do with your venting as conversation
when you have jokes for everyone else
waiting my turn for a few minutes of the day
it really hurts when this is spent in silence
your eyes gazing off into the distance
you didn't used to be that way even a month ago
getting mad at me and bear because we feel it ...

1/30 NaPo write
The dog wanted wet sand for breakfast
so the car had the oceans scent in its nostrils,
skittling down single track roads
forcing bread van's and jogger's
to dodge inside plump hedgerow's.
The morning was damp and deafening
a larva lamp orange spilled out its warning
onto the clawing nails of white foam
that slapped a hand across
smooth wet sand.
She made her marks four at a time
barking back at the chasing tide
as I found a calmness in the throng,
a moment of solitude, sea glass green ...

There’s a Dog snoring (NaPoWriMo 3)
There’s a Dog snoring in my room.
Well,
the room for me as a guest.
The fold-out bed
goes where she is sleeping
so I’ll let her snore some more
And move her when she wakes up.
There’s a Dog snoring in the room.
Well,
Snoring and snorting
in the same tone
as my Grandma used to make.
There’s a Dog snoring in this room.
And I’m using the time
to write a poem
As it would be cruel to wake her,
And anyway,
I get the giggles listening to snoring.
Something about hearing sleep enjoyed ...

Dining Out Of Trash Cans
George was an ambitious fox. He is very cunning and intelligent, although he would eat out of trash cans, in the alleyway, in his element.
He takes food home, back to the family den, where his lady fox and cubs are in the forestry of the ends.
He could visit a lot of bins in one night, trying to find a nice delight, when one day he messed up and had quite a fright.
A booby-trap cage had crashed down and locked him inside. There was nowhere he could run, and nowhere he could hide.
He was trapped for the night. He had stepped onto the wrong lawn....
