Loving YuckLove without
Love within
Love where I am
where I’ve been
Beginning to think:
far too much abundance
of this foolish, loving folly,
so I kicked my
wagging tail collie --
loving view~
it just ain’t fair! – attempting to escape,
I journeyed to the zoo
wouldn’t you know it,
two loving ape there too
along to the park
high in birch nest
spied I a pair of...

TimeI know the mechanics of Time --
easy enough to add and subtract.
Division a realm we can calculate;
but, when it comes to continuity, it is
an age old question -- Our human heart,
an imperfect perfect example: beats can
be quantified; but feelings have a strange math
all their own...often outside of
measurable reason. ...

Spring's Teasing HueSpringtime has arrived,
And so has her yellowing;
Shading everything:-
And when her rains have fallen,
Yellow puddles spring up; achoo!...

He never thought -- therefore, he would never beHe never thought ~ therefore, he would never be,
according to René Descartes' philosophy.
He was a complete nonbeing,
never hearing, never seeing,
like so much of the rest of humanity.

IN THE AWARENESS OF IT ALLThinking morally,
Would be for democracy,
Rather than dynasty:-
At least that's how it should be
With belief in liberty
A democracy,
Is based upon unity;
Rather than money:-
Well, that’s how it use t be
Before today’s tragedy:-
Such an erroring,
Making a mistake again;
Selling out to win:-
Why commit a musky sin,
Triumphed with poweringing?
It’s best to live free,
Than in abject mockery
Of democracy;
Why suffer every day
In...

Felix CulpaWe quarreled to bitter, burning degrees
(you)loving me
as a tender trespasser
a chew toy
boy
demanding compliance
forced feedings

to sock selection
(your)conspicuous usage of chlorine
blistering eyes
a woman my mother may have idolized
(your)disciplined hemlines
entirely circumspect
subtracting the abusements

The Cruelty Of WealthWealth, a siren's charm, alluring and bright
A pillow's softness, a thimble's gentle might
It provides for earthly needs, a feast to behold
Yet, in its depths, a darkness unfolds
Oh, wealth! Where is thy dominion?
Poverty's cold grasp awaits, a dismal throne
A worm on a hook, luring the unsuspecting prey
Into a realm of excess, where virtues fade away
With dastardly...

GIRLCROOSH: INSTRUCTIONS ON FINALLY FEELING OKAYTry to get out of bed early, try to make your bed. Inhale.
Your off-white bedsheets haven’t been washed in a month.
Try purchasing a new detergent, one of those that’s petal-scented:
2 in 1 Aroma Boost Spring Daydream Wash.
Try smiling in the mirror; especially
If you have dimples. They’re the new “it” thing.
Inhale. Do yoga....

Apparently, our home’s, furry little empress,
knows well how to count: will not settle for
less, of her required treat-amount – 4 bits of Friskies,
her mandate, not mine,
before and after each organic dine --
almost out, today I tried 2~
followed a disturbing, guttural
whine – So, I gave her one more;
dissatisfied, continued to opine...
pointing directly toward the...
