Benny

Too many swishers
smoked on an empty stomach
time to cut a bitch

Roundeley

I decided to take a stab at a roundeley. I'd like to start writing rodels and I figured this was a good first step. feel free to eviscerate me.

The snow is cold
flakes dropping in the Yahara
the snow is cold
man on the bridge is feeling old
stiff hands, sore joints and vertebra
smokes a Camel like a mantra
the snow is cold

I'm kind of turning into a regionalist, aren't I?

Monday (late) morning

Eyes are half open
I'm stumbling down the street
Give me some caffine

kick, kick, snare

Skin is dry and tight
I am hollow as a drum
Music is divine

goodnight friends


I wish you goodnight
Let your blankets and your dreams
Keep the world at bay

Low-down dirty shame

Karma is a bitch
But She offers redemption
I'm not so lucky

When I didn't hear William

Have you seen my plums?
I left them in the icebox
I was saving them

Not very creative tonight

La dee da dee dee
Boys keep on chasing girls
The beat goes on

skeletons in my closet

wallet chain tapping
keeping time with my swagger
skateboard in my hand

sweaty and singing
I start my trip to my bed
tonight is breezy

A girl walking
crosses to the other side
I figure out why

post season

I'm watching football
Packers in Arizona
Huzzah for Green Bay

Harry V

Although mean and base

The finches in the branches

Hath noble lustre


a whole colony of finches hangs out in a brush pile in front of my house, they are my new obsession. I was at ReStore today and they had a bunch of bird feeders, I should have bought one.

Geckos: A report in haiku format

Marzipan is green
sometimes more green than others
it's because she sheds

confession to the cute waitress

I saw down your shirt
hills and vales worth exploring
when you took my plate

Nevermind

spending a lifetime
loving you as you deserve
sounds too Hollywood

The popping of joints
a snap, a pull, then release
is more in tune here

birds in the daylight
fade away with the sunset
cold branches are left

with apologies to Saul

hey everybody
alone on a mountaintop
wanna see the stars
