Pink I
May 11, 2017 Comments Off on Pink I
with pinking shears
I cut my slip,
quit my job
hit the bricks,
headed to a pub, and then–
drank till I saw elephants
–rosy red
like my eyes–
crossed & tossed
I didn’t drive,
leaving my pink Cadillac,
at Bruce’s bar
(parked out back)
walking home
I found fresh air
sobered me
–pinkie swear
next day woke up in the pink
house & mood
in spite of drink,
moral is
when getting pickled:
laugh it off
pink
your tickle.
prompt: pink

You have to carpe diem
or fate will pass you by…
since seeing carp
— don’t free ’em —
for that you need to fly *
so don’t wait–
* bait & seize ’em
unless you don’t fish fry…

Caged Lines
April 7, 2017 Comments Off on Caged Lines
With yarns
I knit a cover
(story)
–writ 1, girl who—
wove a golden weave
some pearl,
some pattern,
some patchwork,
the killer quill’t
I fashioned
failed
to blank-it
chill within
–but certainly let it out
which was fine
(if not fuzzy)
because
whipped flat
it spread
. . .
lying flat enough
with are-me corners
and strategically arranged cushions
disguising dropped stitches
–and most laughing matter, besides
yet duvet dossier
scratched the wrong itch
tickled the odd bone
–scarcely
the Sunday funnies
most lounge around
to read.
prompt: outlier
