Comedy/Tragedy
You laugh and I smile
It was funny I swear
Then we cry,
Its for us
Falling apart
And we Lie
Because it was
not a surprise
But we cry

My Muse Attacks

My muse attacks!!    I cannot say no; She overwhelms me.
I loose control, I can’t think or do but what She tells.
Then She leaves me.  Drained, wanting more, needing more, thirsty
for more. She leaves me. A drained husk a parched man
crawling through the desert desperate for a drink.
Reaching, Grasping; hating the sand, the heat, the air, Life!
I curl up and cry. I am left empty,
a Vessel waiting the return of Usefulness; of the the glory of the Muse…

Absurdity

Don’t Be. …Absurd
It’s only… .a word

A musical rhythm
Set in time. …Pentameter
Or Anti-matter; rather.

It’s in your head
You dance, You dance
Round and Round
In bed.

It takes 2ow or One
It takes 4our or more
and lets not forget 3ree.

Don’t be absurd though.
Think it through now.
Is it false or Is it true?
Silly, you don’t even know:

What is it? it is                        is
Absurd? Absurd.

Old person’s [sic]peom

Neck pop
Shoulder stop
S  T  R  Etch
KlinkKlinkclink
Your vertebrae in sync

PoP goes the weasel
Goes your knees
As you please

Roll over
Oh my back!
Its a heart attack
Need a new mattress?

Trust, its less stress
On your mind
You’ll be fine
Take these pills
It cures Ills

And brings new pain,
Symptoms to your brain

random poem

Breath, Mind and Tongue

Words undone

Unbound spewed forth & rebound
To ears

Give forth of breath life

Give forth of love and strife

All wrapped up pretty with a bow

Given as a gift to

random strangers
your dearest foe
your greatest love

A gift the animals envy

Your breath and tongue.

2of2 unfinished. Same topic

One day I’ll meet a prickly one like me
We’ll poke each-other relentlessly
With quills and barbs
We’ll aim for hearts
But in the end we’ll be stuck

Sometimes it’s hard for Pricklys to hug.
