Sir Real & Mis Represent

silhouettes-copy

My reflection

and my shadow are

the only friends I know–

the one confined,

to glass that shines,

the last to shiny sol–

all the same

they can’t be blamed

they’re escorts on the go.

 
 

I’m fostering the former

behind a pair

of Shades–

foster grants,

ensure the cant,

of double in charade–

and if they crack,

they can refract,

rainbows that won’t fade.

 
 

I’m walking with the latter

not under,

but around…

‘turn back to sun,

since sun’s the one,

to brighten what’s on ground–

the light and dark,

are 1 apart,

and in this fashion–bound.

in the energy field of all that is

we are crop circles

shaping humans

the same as clouds scud sky

I see a horsie!
 
 
by miraculous manicure

–it looks like a duck to me

clever clipping

it all comes down to math

primordial pruning

a strawberry landscape from

Jesus Scissorhands

ink–is the Word that comes next…

His tractor rigged with surf racks

(4)

Deere John Baptist

who boogie-boards his perceptions nearby

a cosmic sea cresting & crashing

hedging

foam into form

that best resembles Einstein’s silhouette,

each harvest

contingent on conditional

fallow or fortified

energy.

and the Kitchen Sync

He is Georgia

on my mind

the one near Russia

dba Graceland,

the tourist attraction Graceland

the Mississippi,

log-jammed

West Virginia

Rocky Mountains to scale

and hey, I’m a globe trotter–

he’s England & Paris, too,

run riot

He is the desert

and the reason the desert exists

and the Cee

a big splash

the stars

the asterisks kind

and the sun

and everything under it…

the mUse

reams of parchment

and the music

sorry, Casey!

He is the rapids of

Crazy River

up ↑ stream

black water.

15 Minutes Later…

re-Poe…

Riviera Paradise

ocean heart

Her name is Barbara–

tho’ I call her Babs

–I tell you she’s a peach…

her outlook sunny,

and fulla bunnies,

mostly on her beach…

She’s small,

and neat–

and dresses well–

but doesn’t let that stop…

her fun outside,

she likes to ride,

her mountain bike to top…

of any-any,

peaks a’plenty,

she has a room with view…

a southwest facing,

all-embracing,

posture she assumes…

Yes, Babs a Saint!

a gentle friend,

the best in all the world…

a wild-tiled

–not too styled–

beach and mountain girl…

prompt: why my town ROCKs

This is a little ditty for my city of Santa Barbara. I “adopted” her decades back, and can tell you emphatically, it’s the prettiest beach in all of Cally–and I have fostered a few. Hope your Thursday has distinct Friday qualities, and thanX for schtoppin’ in …
