Backstage in the Big Tent…TGI Friday, peeps. 🙂
Rabbits Can’t Read

Is Dewey•Dismal?
Did Briar•Lie?
about the lay
of future files?
was thicket sticky
like
Dewey’s
digits…
did Briar
lie-cense other
tickets?
the answer’s yes
resoundingly,
since Dewey failed
astoundingly,
a system so
confoundedly–
intricate and full
of sh*t
most everyone
avoided it,
>including<
wily
Briar Rabbit
& thus when
PC age was born,
that Dismal•Dew
was
pulled
from
drawers
–those narrow kind–
too long &
next,

Pot-tea Humor
C’mon in to Never Afters…an “alter” verse alive with laughter…:)
Ponyboy

it’s B.S.
for P.S.
corralling my day
I’m full-growed
& my load
of books
R a weight
the cool kids
in school sit
grouped in the quad
the stoners
& loners
in the parking lot
the jocks
& the soc’s
& the greasers
out back
the jocks run the bleachers
the greasers—the track
the geeks
practice Greek
& tease you in tones
& the band
lends a hand
with back-up trombone
the queue
to get food
is where I now stand
a-mid-point returned
to where it began
& my Freaky Friday
don’t know where I fit
with teachers
in lounge
or
Breakfast Club mix.

Pie in the Sky
and a Never After…Happy Day o’ Labors…
Piece of Work

There’s many jobs that I won’t do
& what the hey,
let’s list a few
I won’t be
used as
firework
as lighted fuse
can really hurt
& lemme see where else
I
~balk~
the work of clocks
is near the top
I don’t believe in time
a’Tall
a man-made concept
*falderal*
& weaving nets
is fine for some
but netting work
is never done
no, druthers mine
would find my labor
stemming from
my better nature
the work
I love
won’t find me lolling
I love to labor
at truer calling.
