Why always must you rhyme?
You write all right
But when you write
You're rhymin' all the time
When did you start rhymin'?
Well, when I was kid
though sounds absurd
I'd hear a word
and that's just what I did
one last #race
stars #meshed & took their place
#champion come #tomorrow
#challenge be the brightest shine
#impede not thy foe's twinkle
tho in #reflection
last yr's objections
snuffed out the dullest 9

tho the past, a mother #lode of sorrow

#champion those bridges burned
let #mesh into your lessons learned

your whatever u called her
#giggles & #tenderness
if mom or dad hollered
her #absence laid heavy
your first taste of grief
goodby knitted scarfs
& Sunday's roast beef
roots hunker as the tree grows taller
your Nan your Grandma

chatting with another
as if not slow enough
seems there is a new guy
stocks shelves & sweeps the floor
heard them call him Pee Wee
then they giggled even more
so with my order finished, I said thank you dear
I could use a hand
is my son Pee Wee here?

#global struggles keep me at home
be wanderlust peaked
now #achievable
friggin technology
most unbelievable
a world to share

Brandy neat, hair gray
Grab the euchre deck, she'd say

don't be #blue
we're all broke
that is true
a #solid holiday can be enjoyed
#measurable hints to be employed
no shame in #utility turkeys
need no grandiosity
gobbled to the #bone w/ #ferocity
don't spend the day alone

a #measurable mile made me smile
a pound of bacon sold
by then ingrained into my brain
the temp that water freezes
no centimeters for me young man
I know eight inches pleases
I'm still confused about the switch
I'll forever be an imperial bitch

I got you no card
but the dog got u something
it's out in the yard
I said that's no present you dirty old hound
a stinkin' big pile #outside on the ground
he said it may not be much
it will just have to do
but I know that she'll like it
cause she's married to you

no anger or malice
no addiction to my crazy
no need to go ask Alice
my crazy is unfettered
cool #casual lass
#options are twofold
be a goodin' or an ass
the #offer's there
join the #craze
#interrupt the BS
#harvest happy days

Today we witness
The atrocities of Kings
Against children
It has become
The fascination
Of our nation
No torches are raised
No pitchforks brandished
No vengeance
No retribution
No justice
We are a nation of cowards
Sacrificing our children to dragons
So that we are not devoured

Oh sweet little Poet
Our art is not our own
The pieces celebrated
Are shadows never known
Show us where he hurt you
Let us fantasize
Cut it out in meter
Bled right down your thighs
Submit to the grotesquerie
You might just win a prize
Everyone's enamored
By the trauma of our lives

With your tiny hands and your mushroom dick
Take your demented rotting brain
And go fuck yourself and then do it again
With your tiny hands and your mushroom dick
Take your demented rotting brain
And go fuck yourself and then do it again
I #joined for the #third time
saw a #banquet of men
& dated again
no #casual sex or one night stands
a #saint I ain't
but my morals do stand
I #interrupt this poem to #offer the truth
I slept with most of them

reality hit
my brother dying
spent the Summer sad & crying
& my heart
which I had locked
got involved
ran off half cocked
rocked my world
his?
not rocked
now I try to find the things
blessings that a smile brings
sad or not my soul still sings

this Summer as I sat in wait
I had a #goal, the goal was great
I'd diet run & meditate
the diet?
meh, I love my food
the running?
never in the mood
meditation?
none ensued
I plan to lose last Summer's weight
this Winter as I sit in wait
