Life is But a Stream
That was the last thing I saw. A gaping maw. Life’s remorseless jaws chewing up all my remaining time. Spitting it back at me to punctuate the futility of all that had gone before. Worse yet, all that was yet to come. Yet still I pressed on. When I awoke all had been illuminated and I no longer gave a tinkers damn about what others thought was important. I have set my own priorities ever since. Only rule was to treat all others with kindness, respect, and empathy.

Recipe to turn a typical day
Into an atypical day:
Pour in your noggin
Monkey brain chatter
Lizard brain chatter
Right and left brain crosstalk
Add all your favorite savory
Cognitive biases and fallacies to taste
Fold in concentrated confirmation bias
Now fuel that with some chemicals
Prescribed or otherwise
Heat up with opinion of pundits dujour
Bring ingredients to a rolling boil
Now go do something
Even if it’s wrong
Viola!
Oopsie daisy. Just another typical day.
Well, that’s the way the cookie crumbles
Founding Pirates
Lest we forget, since antiquity when The Sea Peoples came rolling up on your shores, you knew you were in big trouble. Or at least you found out quick like a bunny.
When everyone is running a criminal enterprise, no one is. Land of the free. Home of the criminal enterprise. But pirates are old timey romanticized criminal enterprises. Still more recent, the Lincoln Park pirates here in sweet home Chicago.
🎶Weigh! Hey! Tow em away 🎶
Meanwhile let us all give thanks for those hours of pirated music, videos, and intellectual properties that still circulate the dark webs; while A.I. pirates everything in the world that you can possibly imagine.
Okay, now hold your tongue and say, “I was born on a pirate ship.”

Top Cat Scat
Itten bitten little kitten
have a herringbone
trombone with righteous timbre
to play a caterwauling concert.
Though it takes a lot to laugh,
It takes a train to cry.
So don’t squash that dwarf,
hand me the pliers.
Not a cat but a textbook
on how to tune a piano,
not tune a fish.
The confuse a cat
railroad trestle catastrophe
has gone big bada boom
and the Chattanooga choo choo
will never chuga chug again
Now that the pump don’t work
cause the vandals stole the handle
So look out kitty in
the cats in the cradle
with the silver spoon
All watched over
by machines of loving grace
perched above us
in the catbird seat
reading up on foliables
for feline domesticus
as the textbooks say
with a cornucopia
of tuneziz that croonziz
and phrases that payziz
that can haziz chezzburgerziz

But I Digress
tick tock hip hop
flip flop splish splash
ahnaa kanna poona
gag me with a spoona
mish mash pish posh
tsk tsk slap dash
wacky tacky tiki taki
slappy happy kaki papi
blim blam alakazam
blotto bag esperanto
bang zoom to the moon
howdy duty see ya suni

Thanks A Million
Crimson prose delivered on the wings of a cardinal. Offering a flaming chalice of intoxicating wine. An attempt to make a maroon of me. Causing me to dance on the table top with a rose gripped in my teeth matters naught; when I don’t have a red cent to my name. All this vermilion talk is the stuff of velvet pie in the sky.
