Onion peeling
Anxious feeling Friends revealing Waxy sealing Ever tangle Jingle jangle Keys that dangle Locked hands mangled I lament this Achy separateness Tight regret fist Slow goodbye kiss Drift away From Memory Bay Can’t seem to say What fears allay A prickly sting A fraying string A papery wing A hollow ring No one listens Speakers hissing Something missing Boat is christened So long your cruise It’s what you choose Then lit the fuse To a purple bruise 6/18/21

How does it go? I sit here at This lake. It’s Clear. We are forecast to bake In late summer heat. For goodness’ sake, The view’s complete, Occasional vessel For ski or fish. Right through the middle, Speedboat swish. Speakers blaring. Engine rumble scaring Fly and fowl. Cept the owl, Who knows better. A real go getter, Dancing after dinner, Sleeping through the day, While we run and play. Twisted limbs To tangle in Bramble’s ankle. But I digress. I’d rather ramble And squeeze this view Intact and placid. Without anothers’ acid And bile, to pollute The juicy fruit of thought And prayer of those Who care for subtle grace, Now reflecting In my cooking face. To the rafters
Ever after Heart of laughter Slave to master Dream of dinner Kith and kinner Salvage sinner Ticket winner Nice and easy Brisk and breezy Cheap and cheesy Stomach queasy Drenched in fabric Poached in hubris Benched in tragic Coached in magic Devil’s handsome Leper’s loathsome When we had some, It felt wholesome Could be better Bedbug wetter Tearful letter Put on a sweater Do or Diner Dusty miner Nothing finer Wordy whiner 6/4/21 In the distance
Plaintive instance. Ties unmooring, Wailing, warring Empty echo Roman, Greco Calling danger Falling manger Shoulder low Push and tow Row to hoe Seeds to grow Ways to go, I don’t know. Honest hope Hanging rope Puzzle pieces Nephews, nieces New life leases Off you go. Past can’t measure, Sunken treasure. Work with pleasure. Savor leisure. I should talk, Squall and squawk. Once was mine, Unrefined. Reinvented Represented Claimed from storage Resurrected Looking forward, New hope purpose. Grass grows green Beneath the surface. 5/22/21 Honorary

Bound together with Super Glue, Bon Vivants et voulez vous. 6/7/21 Ratchet Ford Rachel
Fingering a facial Couldn’t rightly cut it, So I bring her a bucket. Lying in the grass, Sunburnt, flabby ass, Flipping pages briskly. Frisky little kitty. Rear View Mirror Sara. Black eye, cat mascara. Honk it if you’re horny. Dumbass bitch ain’t sorry. I’d be just the same. Play her little game. Hundred dollar nightly. Small town Aphrodite. Honestly, I’m wheezing. Laughing at the sleazing. Turned up noses holler. Baby got a dollar. Following the flavor, Tuna fish they savor. Catting down the alley To see Good Evening Sally. Titty Twister Tamra. Quick, go get your camera. Running through casinos, Baby Blanket Bingo. Shave its’ rusty belly. Sailor Razor Ellie. Pall Mall’s at the drive-in. Jive-Ass Jill keeps jivin. Sshhh.. the movie’s startin Oh, I beg your pardon 11/2/20 Etch a Sketch
Yonder fetch Freedom plane Pray for rain Now that we need This other train Of thought That brought another line that caught me, by and by To wonder Why and seek My senses, Weak past tenses. Hopping fences. Through the afterlife, No struggle/strife Just curious dancing Husband/wife. Ain’t she perty? That which cares For barns and fairs An allegory/wanton story. Now comes the part Where I begin to start Some new perception And way to go Bout what I know Rather than what pops My brain With soft refrain. I’m a liar

Exaltation Recreation Consecration Reprobation Walking taller Square dance caller Creeper crawler Basketballer Orphaned widow Cheer up, kiddo Dry your pillow Pull the plow Here we are now In the row Crusty muddy Told you so 4/4/21 Artist’s anguish
Chips and sandwich Shiny prize Thoughts realized. Focus fallow, Irreverent, callow. Wants seem shallow, Obvious and dated. What you once hated, Now collides you. Quick abides you. Is it foolish? Or maybe ghoulish To feast on carcass? Leftover darkness Holds little black. Another track is truer. You thought you knew her, But she held back. So follow forward. If then, it’s your word Against old versions, Friendship perversions Can now be shed. The will’s been read. She gets the dishes. Those unkept wishes Come with me now. Maybe I can, somehow, Bring to fruition From what once was. This new Edition. 11/24/20 Virus light.
Sweet appetite. Girlfriend calling. Breath appalling. Twilight reaches Deep waves on beaches. Turn down the pillow. Your bending willow Wants to break. Nature’s mistake. That's why she weeps. Into river creeps, Hoping one will notice The wading water lotus Born from sorrow. Always tomorrow To make the difference. Just one more inference Of being needy For characters seedy And hardened over. A four leaf clover Waits for its’ wisher, Whose heart, a fissure, Has carved its’ hope. Send down a rope. You know you need it. Your fields are weeded. Search for your seedling. Just like a bee sting Makes you feel special, It’s warmth a petal Across your hearts' threshold. 11/22/20 Hot in Plastic
