He'll heal his heel.
They sow so they sew.
His aide aid with an ade.
You saw a ewe eat a yew.
I ate on the ait eight times.
The fare at the fair was fair.
He sees the seas...

Clown At the Abyss“Nobody likes a clown at midnight.” Stephen King
CLOWN AT THE ABYSS
Darkroom abscessed
with neon blush and black-blood —
sunken eyes look surprised
to find oneself in a dank dungeon.
Fecal stench, not humorous,
screams on each bold painted-on face.
“Are we dead?”
“When did I...

What Nunsensepainted in black from head to foot
like a mourner

that we are the bride of Christ
while we are at it let’s glue
some angel’s wings and halo
to our ensemble
and heigh ho purchase
a white horse of course

Darkness Taken for Grantedbrighter afternoon
after the solar eclipse
four eyes put away
as couples are high-fiving
emphasizing photographs
heigh-ho back to screen
first to post solar eclipse
along with the throngs
lucky strike of sunshine gold
its older than the black hills
the sun soon will set
but will all appreciate
the normal darkness?
sunset taken for granted
without retinopathy

CrowsThe Carrion Crow
Crows abound in the
neighborhood and around the
yard. Often in early morning a
great, noisy caw-fest occurs.
A carrion crow
sat on an oak, fol de rid-
dle, lol de riddle…
Only tiny oaks sprout here and
there, as planted by industrious
blue jays. Crows sit...

The Futuristic ChristmasNo more suprises now christmas holds,
As day by day I’m growing old.
This I wish to confess,
Now christmas makes me pretty depressed.
I was fond of natural yule tree,
But now my grandchildren pick it from online for discount or free.
Within a seconds the remote control automatically decorates,
I...

Pirate TaleTo the ship they row
Pirates Pete and Bo
Sea prowess to show
Sailing!
Argh! They proudly crow
Greeting all they know
With a 'Yo-ho-ho'
Hailing!
Sea terrors, heigh-ho!
Stolen treasures stow
Overboard men throw
Quailing!
Storm winds fiercely blow
Apprehensions grow
Enemy adds woe
Trailing...
Formidable foe
Tragic overthrow
Sad, their ship's death-throe
Failing!
Sloshing to and fro
Amid undertow
Down and down they go
Flailing!
Out the...

Snow White and the Seven Pronouns When I was a kid we watched with hearts aglow
and Snow White’s skin was ever white as snow.
But all bossy and meaner
Snow White is now Latina
and heigh-ho heigh-ho it’s off to smirk they go!
Well the folks at Disney have changed it...

Nature Ho Ho Ho Don Quixote LanceWith a,
Heigh Ho,
Heigh Ho,
Heigh Ho
In defense of nature we go
Like Night's on Crusade
But i fear we will need
More than seven dwarfs
Unless they are standing on the shoulder of giants
And holding Don Quixote lance
Because we are up against
Our mortal enemy
Hephaestus...

Heart Healing HerbalHail I will a heart centered healing that can heat
Head, heart and hands and that’s why I heartily rhyme;
Heart it heals like holy herbal; he heartily does tweet,
He – nature’s hero, hails in his rhyme her heart, prime.
Hence, here, I hire his heroic healing writing
Heigh,...

Only One WayAh, God, the way your little finger moved
As you thrust a bare arm backward
And made play with your hair
And a comb a silly gilt comb
Ah, God—that I should suffer
Because of the way a little finger moved.
Dear, I to...

Love Will TriumphIt took me time to embellish
myself
And long to reach you!
And there I stand confronting
you and lionise,
Behaving uncontrived and
candid!
And now you waste golden
moments talking to my better
half,
Bereft me and become
nonpareil!
Your fairer half still sits staid,
Not inveighing our inexorable
closeness!
Do not...

Horny the 8th dwarf sings
heigh-ho heigh-ho it’s off to twerk we go!

Pain and GainWhile walking alone
Tears were blown

The pain I felt
My mind, say-so
Cry heigh-ho
And after this
The best of bliss.....
