Taking what life throws at me one pitch at a time
First step to create
Is to destroy what once was
Wipe it all away
Ashes ashes all fall down
Says the Phoenix," Nevermore
barely sentient
pugnacious pugilist pawns
poking the people
only following orders
no matter how illegal
butterfly wings fold
to conceal glorious
supreme pink peaches
Was it all a trap
Or a case of careless love
But one knows for sure
Workout climax spent
We languished then lounged as one
In refreshing grove
bodacious bondage
audacious anatomy
prurient combo
Phrazez that Payzez:
Keep your trap shut
A prodigious feat in the proliferation of verbiage
convinced there was a
trap door under the mattress
of my childhood crib
with stairs down to the basement
I searched every night in vain.

Making the easy ones look hard
Forming the itty bitty little ones
Into hulking big ol sharp shards
Fears, problems, scary bug a boos
Confusing the issues of the day
That's where real money is made
Need what you need
Want what you want
Necessity or whimsy
Knowing the variance
Is wisdom indeed
Daily things I do
Make me a big fan of air
Clean fetishist fan
So many things hurt
I stopped dealing with the pain
Learned to be the pain
presenting my new
improved Spud Deluxe spring sky
potato launcher
From mercurial
To mundane maliciousness
A rogues gallery
Narcissistic Neo Con
Nepo Babies on parade
it just isn't right
everything's done out of spite
let alone normal
An incessant buzz
Of lies since February
But this too shall pass
The melting pot lie
Sold to all for years on end
See it effervesce
Watch it seethe up and bubble
In all it's grievance glory
Again found lacking
In all clutch situations
Sir Submission kneels
bad seed germinates
abject moral turpitude
freedom's slow decay
You want a dollar?
Pull down your pants and holler
Internet content
From political cosplay
To shoveled opinion smut
It's a fare for all
Not fair for anybody
Kind of worldwide dare
Pummel my Brummell
Regency era fashion
sense at the rumble
peas porridge hot was
peas porridge cold rain snow in
a pot nine days old
Déjà all over again
Risk versus rewards
Calculation
Irrational exuberance
Unreasonable expectations
Inflate
A bubble to bursting
Resounding pop resulting
Repercussions
Echoes in a regulatory void
Clipping aspirational wings
Again
Where there is confusion
There's money to be made
For sum
Little risk of a
spontaneous incursion
in this haiku form
so I made it a tanka
To fit verbose verbiage
a flurry of wings
flapping with blood soaked fury
bringing home the wreaths
a haiku a day
complete a puzzle or two
days start with a win
lacking rationale
cattywampus ciphering
mystical conjure
things that were true now denied
lies take corporeal form
Groupthink with a wink
Quail with the media snooze
Lest we start to think
Phrazez that Payzez
"Family is the cradle
of all the world's misinformation"
- White Noise
Hefty car door slam
455 engine roars
Four barrel guzzle
Dinosaur bones from before
Buick Skylark GS growls
Time for us to talk
Rarely signals glad tidings
Harbinger of blame
The Grumpy Grandpas
In their dotage shuffle charts
Like they're tarot cards
Never mind the auguries
Reading them the way they choose
As summer swelters
My public trans ride goes on
I nicely ripen
Girl Scouts sell cookies
never know what a Brownie
will get on up to
morning after slink
easy in the big city
less so in small towns
noisy buggers both
cicada and katydid
each a unique sound
Keep the change baby
Change ain't what it used to be
Small change got rained on
Cause he wanted to be king
Links in history's change gang
A therapy named desire
A Scroll Threw Life
