Been living my life
One card shy of a full deck
Loving every deal
Had one up my sleeve
Bluff called before I could leave
Cuff usurped the sleight
Fifty two skiddoo
Had no clue what I should do
Cut the cards and flew
Cards

Guaranteed
Given the choice
Shopping lane
Highway lane
I'll choose the wrong one
When I move over
That one will stop
The other we I'll go
So now I stay put
And be the lane
J.J. leaned over
"Bonds just bind you to sorrow."
Then drained his Guinness
Up before sunrise
Much to complete before I
Slip into darkness
Tinnitus kicks in
Then the hum turns into words
A cosmic message
Bicameral mind chatter
Or psychotic word jumble
Our knowledge of space is pure speculation.
On the fringe stands The Eavesdrop Inn.
Best burger for light years.
Their motto is:
To Serve Man

Niche
nouveau riche caste search

"Spontaneous eruption of now "
Very Bad Wizards
Stick or the carrot?
Please may I have the carrot.
Fine. But first the stick!
some well placed roses
let me stand bare naked here
among the elm trees
bare trees speak to me
without the clutter of leaves
message from their roots
lounging in cool shade
a tree site of our first kiss
in seventy three

A lesson I learned
Less time being on the make
More time spent making
A velvet funnel
Filled with sapphire blather
Chokes out all reason
light clothes on the course
for all caddies from now on
helps hide dropped cheat ball
fifty years ago
summer job in factory
room size spring grinder
turntable of tubes
fill all tubes with raw springs
make ends flat to seat
fast pace to keep up
if one sticks in tube tap other
guy and duck under table
sparks fly all around
best motivation ever
to return to school
Seashells
Susan and Sally went to the seashore to a very popular seafood restaurant. Being fully paid up members in the ladies who lunch bunch of society, they settled in with cocktails for a nice long one.
Susan’s gaze locked with the stranger’s across the crowded restaurant, and she was suddenly overwhelmed by a powerful emotion. She did not know why the vision of this well appointed flâneur had stirred such deep body quivers and quakes within her. She felt a very strong compunction to go down to the beach and sell seashells at highly inflated prices to fulfill this strangers deepest need.
She had hoped he had designs on her. But truly, he only cared for himself. No more long lingering lunches for her. She was now a slave to the growing seashell economic bubble.
More shells. More better, was the watchword of the era. Even her one time friend Sally could not save her from herself or her shellfish desires.
