Taking what life throws at me one pitch at a time
The laws you may flout
Lie, bloviate, and squeal
The poison will out
Before network news
Came Plan 9 from Outer Space
Then came the YouTube
the duality
of the event will arrive
eventually
footsteps behind me
rock of ages barrs my way
just won't cleft for me
an ache with each bite
of the apple of knowledge
that some folks chose this
Notice prime bellwether clue
Private armies for the few
A catastrophe for all
Siren song before the fall
Reeling in my prize
Rocking on Michigan waves
Feeling hungover
Replaying the night before
Landing this Coho Salmon
With every false claim
Honking like a strangled goose
The bellwether ache
Reeking like week old salmon
I feel deep down in my gut
gravity we fall
comedy lifts spirits up
it's all emotion
Summer warmth loiters
Not chilly and still humid
Touch and go autumn
Once upon a time
There was some vigor
It's get up and go
Got up and went
Doing the locomotion
Packed up it's bags
With stern stoic rigor
Soon began to spoil
From no refrigeration
But it was too late
To stop the denigration
No amount of chill
Effectualized reinvigoration
one chilly touch will
reinvigorate his stalled
fall to the bottom
Not enough somber
To make it around the block
On twitter splatter
agony induced
via algorithm plots
deceptive exploit
definite maybe
perhaps the closest we'll get
to truthful answers
Phrazez that Payzez

another day with
another catastrophe
life in the food chain
carb apocalypse
free infinite pasta bowl
with every order
the A.I. cascade
of nonsense pulls a cartload
of code cooling dope
over the bones of the dead
to where the mirror meets the sky
Experiencing
infinite catastrophe?

from now on I will
only make life decisions
based on messages
received from bacteria
blooms residing in my gut.
tracking my journey:
the eternal extrusion
into persistence
a social faux pas
an intrusive extrusion
when not requested
reap the memory
a harvest of each time we
made each other glow
time warp in reel time
just this side of eternal
as this term may seem
lies for a penny
gave misery by the pound
lock stock and barrel
expanded family
or limit family defined
fertile fun house mirror
rise in the morning
on a horse hair stuffed mattress
perfect pony tale
Once I learned to be the algorithm, I saw the whole waxwork facade melt away. No amount of razzle-dazzle frazzle trying to elicit delicious delights to spoon feed down my gob saved the shabby thin A.I. veneer.
All together now!
This time all we are saying
Is give peas a chance
experiencing
together alt universe
synthesis smash face
lotus pose calls for
not so subtle joint pain cues
joining me to ground
fabric lotus time
synthesis binds together
subtle corrections
original sin
heinous concept of belong
root of all evil
A spark was kindled
With a smile and a hair flip
Once forbidden fruit
Now open to conspire
Consummated lush desire
soft orchid petal
walnut firm and ridged surface
contrast forged delight
reality grift
pick our brains like a walnut
then discard the shell
conspire with the wealthy
to hoard all that ain't nailed down
time to pull the rein
of diabolical reign
vicious viscous rain
ideological spew
drenching us to the marrow
delivering pain
deceptive criminals reign
time to pull the rein
toadies in a row
all queue up to kiss the ring
hopping for more flies
basking in a field
peering through lush blades of grass
Bambi pronking by
A Scroll Threw Life
