When Trudy Tickle gave birth to a girl
I was shocked at the name, I confess
She’s named after Trudy’s best friend
The poor baby has been christened Tess!

For John
I rose early, to sit on the shoreline of the sea
and watch the sunrise
the salt air is refreshing on the lungs
and the scent of the beach is earthy
gulls and pelicans have already arrived
and are squabbling over a morning meal of fish
the waves are casually rolling toward me
in usual fashion
it is serene and peaceful
as I enjoy the morning and see a thin red line
on the horizon
it is a perfect morning to wait for dawn
and then I heard it, the roar of a jet engine
as it crossed the sky
shattering the peaceful ambiance of my senses
the loud duck-like clatter of tourists
plodding their way across my beach of peace
tossing their metal lawn chairs about
arguing over who paid what for breakfast
my eyes rolled back
and I whispered in my head as my neck bent down
my eyes closed and WTF ran through my mind
like an out-of-control locomotive
6/3/23 contest WTF
sponsor John Lawless
One day I was walking down the street,
and out of nowhere I got poop bombed.
By a strange looking bird, and I screamed
WTF! He could have at least said in coming,
watch out or look out! All I got was a smirk
and a flap of the wings! I thought to myself
this day couldn’t get any worse, but it did!
As I continued walking I stepped in a pile of
fresh dog poop and you guessed it I yelled
WTF again, the dog nor his owner was no-
where to be found, they both were missing
in action. Later on that day I filed a police
report because dog and owner needs to
be arrested not later but immediately.
So if you see someone yelling WTF
at the top of the lungs they probably
had a Sh%t encounter on that day!

Grounding pounding wanna grab
Jousty jack wanna stab
Anger clutching his mind
Crack spouting nonsense
Idiotic ineffable reason
The conflict season..
Note.Nonsense makes no sense..
When the program isn’t working like it should,
No rabbit’s foot, nor horseshoe’s gonna bring you any luck.
When the techie’s not around to make things good
Ya gotta figure out a way to get yourself unstuck.
All it takes is just three fingers, and you’re sweet:
Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
When the system won’t cooperate, oh dear,
You don’t like what you’re looking at and need to move along.
If your monitor is frozen, have no fear.
I’ve got a way to break the ice. It really can’t go wrong.
It’s a clever way of turning up the heat:
Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
If it fixes my computer when it’s jammed,
Then maybe it can help with other problems in my life.
Since it’s useful when I’m really getting spammed,
It might be good to try it when I'm badgered by my wife,
Then her nagging might be something I can beat:
Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
After Tuesday, even the calendar goes WTF
My hearing ain't all that good but I surely ain't deaf
Inanimate objects get together
And declare their displeasure
It's time to change our lifestyle and clean up this mess
After Tuesday, even the calender goes WTF
My hearing ain't all that good but I surely ain't deaf
Inanimate objects get together
And declare their displeasure
It's time to change our lifestyle and clean up this mess
Will power waits true
Then fate creeps up to nag you
For good they battle.
what were you thinking
when you drank heavily
and jumped in?
When things fail to make the start
then the pleasure of the end
takes the awful load of broken
promises enhanced in bold
of laughter, turned cold
im in your yard
not very far
in on your porch
back from a bar
im in your house
looking for you
breacking everything i can
in search of you
your brother and your sister
runnin out to greet me
your mom just yells
and screams at me
i jump the stairs
two at a time
my ipod playing
sublime
i find your room in antisipation
flig open the door
its empty where are you
this has never happened to me before
a week later at your funeral
the sky is black
matching everyones attire
dark brooding black
i say you were a good friend
but its my fault you died
yes i say
it was suicide
a year went by
and another suicide
'she was grieving' they say
when i died
i just couldn't live
in you-less world
it was unfortunate but true
i was such a young girl
