Getting Paid
We’re getting paid
We both wake up before the rooster calls
Do our routine don’t want to be late for school
Bell rings class is ending
Head for the locker room where I’m the One
You are in the state championship I’m trying too
All the sudden I’m in the papers and screens
We are colliding with greatness on different pay scales
I am better than you I bring more fans to watch me
You are excellent but not as good as me
And you will disagree
You are a tree that gives me shade but I...

A WHIFF-WHAFF MIRACLE
I ran out of whiff-whaffs
That always made my day
Gave me some strong laughs
Ping-ponging them, every time I'd play
Now things are not the same
For a decade I had them like my veins
Like my eyes that protected them insane
Now in my head deep inside, it just rains
Clustered in my cotton round domain
There are only migraines and pain
The agony of this dreadful slain
Of my buddies, I so much miss in vain
On tables that lined up in a perfect row,
Their surface a shining sea of green, ...

Limerick Collection 5
I will add to this in the coming days... I've promised to write a limerick for each person that donates to my latest charity fundraiser!
Insanity?
My friend Tanya's a personal trainer.
I'm not really sure who's the saner—
she runs right to the limit
(marathon! I just swim it!).
The answer to that's a no-brainer!
"It's just down the road!"
Whenever we're facing...

Farang, or a Love Song for Bangkok
They call me Farang, or Muay Farang. Foreign boxer, it means. It is not a title of honor. I’ve been here for a month now. Coach expects by the time I come back I’ll be a top prospect for the fancy TV fights, considering my kickboxing experience in the states. Everything depends on how my record turns out over here. This’ll be my third fight now. Kaewsamrit Boxing Gym puts all new inductees straight to work, and that’s slow to the boys over here. They do it every week and sometimes twice. I wonder how they do it, but then I see seven year olds literally living in the gym and I guess that’s...

.......Rush (Can I Get A Moment Of Your Time, Miss. Philly)
Philadelphia state of mind I must speak of
Soft and silken Sisterly affection blanketing by some weakening Brotherly love
An addictive inner city of carnal pleasure seeking distractions
An enticing tour to roam deep within the soul, a rapid pulse for private satisfaction
Mm... the turnpike curves of Pennsylvania, nestled between New Jersey and New York
The main dish of butter rum a la carte can be enjoyed without any spoons or forks
Palate dining pleasure catered for three
Swinging balls enjoying the holes in...

I Will Never Return
Yes this is Jim how
May I help u tonight?
And thanks for calling
U can speak it's alright
Jim it's Kellia I haven't seen
U in fourty days since the ball
Will we ever hang out again
Or get a movie with friends at the Fall
Kellia Jim has crossed the Canadian
Line as of seventeen days ago
I will not be returning to the country
I packed my things and had to go
I'm only eighteen but I made
A basketball team in Alaska over
9 months and seventeen days ago
And got a call from Agent Blank Clover

Basketball
i once asked a therapist
one i continued to see out of resignation
too lazy to find a new one
why i was so hard to medicate
it's because you have so many things wrong with you!!
she laughed glibly
not a trace of shame
for such a hideous remark
maybe i did have a lot of things wrong with me
but maybe i didn't
for a while i was seeing both a psychologist
and a psychiatrist
within the same practice
i thought of the psychiatrist
a heavyset man from India

Liken to One Love
She walked to the tennis courts, not far from the parallel street sweet shop. It was hot and sunny at the worst possible time of day, straight up noon. Sunscreen in hand, she felt undaunted by the blazing sky. There were tall Elm like shade trees over hanging above the 10 foot fences surrounding the courts in every corner. Shade could be found there if the angle of the sun was right behind any of them.
A siren made her look backwards from where she had briskly walked about a 1/4 mile. Nothing visible noted, she continued towards the lockers lining each side of the court....

Full Moon Free solo
Johnson, VT, Fall 2015
Some time in October it was my friend's 21st birthday. To celebrate we decided to have a party on top of Prospect Rock, a popular hang out place that also happened to be the local climbing crag. Despite it being in the middle of the Green Mountains, Prospect had a slight urban feel. It was definitely more of a party place than a climbing destination. The base of the cliff was littered with broken glass, once I even spied a broken tv in the talus field. A particularly memorable moment was while mid-way up the center part of the cliff I had to dodge a falling...
