Taking what life throws at me one pitch at a time
When everything seems superfluous
Nothing could be more succinct
Than a well placed pejorative
To punctuate the current buffoonery
Put on display for the world to see
By the bloated corrupt personification
Of everything that’s wrong with us
“Oh fuddles!” Say I.
“Fuddles!”

RDP Thursday! Meander!
Sal Meander
The lounge lizard
Dilly Dally
The blue tongued skink
Went out on the town
For a clandestine slink
Snuggled in a dark back booth
At The Bearded Dragon Bar
They ordered their favorite drink
A straight up Aqua-Iguanatini
Made with Mezcal Worm Vermouth
The night ended just like you think
Being relegated
To the Husky Boys size section
For back to school clothing
Early pigeonhole stuffing
Into the Chunk Brigade
Unintentional microaggressions
From catalogs of yore
To current online shopping
The horror persists
a portmanteau storm of cattywampus
washed up on a sandbox in Catmandu county
feline delectimus défectuepuss
concerning litterbox cattiquette
used by the tigerlilly tabby
with de rigueurpurr felid indifference
for the calicokittykat copycat
resulting in a catastrophic catfrontation
Quatrain away on the thin ice of a new way
Hum my song of say about tales of yesterday
Thinking thing thoughts of axis spin du jour might bring
Rouse my weary ways then go off and do that thing
Adrift in a maze
Color chaos confusion
Sensation overload
Input puerile diffusion
Perception palpation
Dewey Decimal suffusion
Helping to decrease the daze
Yet never ceasing to amaze
Overwrought ambition
Battles fought
Battles won
Battles that need to be refought
Odds on favorite
Powers balanced
Daring unbalance
Until tipping points tipped
Red lines crisscrossing
Mutually assured destruction
Whistling past the symmetry
All my live long days
Rubber Humbug Fairy Bumper
Seeing as that was the intriguing heading on the email sent to me from an unknown email address; I had to ask myself…
“Self, is this spam or an ad for illegal subversive pixie dust?”
“Or just a poorly executed tongue twister?”
The
Best feature of the Internet
Is
From contrary contradiction
To
Highly hyperbolic hypocrisy
From
Sophistic soliloquizing
With
Vestigial verbal vertigo
Leaves
My usual Irish goodbye
Closer
Than the nearest door
Just
A power down click away
