you can invite God to dinner
>don’t be shy<
you really can!
just jump over to the moon
& moon jack–
it (when no one’s walking, naturally)
grabbing a subsequent
& nearby wormhole
to the Northside
…
that’d be upper North, you know
to drop an
rsVP
before re-entering the atmosphere on the quick
(bring ice cubes for this)
but be sure to Dipper a Big
ole ladle
of marinated night en route
(from the firmament section of your Cosmos)
then ditch the Soup, to
swirl in
enough jet streams
for spaghettification for 2
(go ahead & add x’try
’cause you never know)
topping the lot of that
with the to-go
mOOn
(best when its full)
then find a mesa
check your fascia
& add
a handful of stars
(to garnish)
flicking away any
residual flys
(on the DL)

Hands Off

Heddy was handy
with needles and skeins,
linking the loops
& cabling twain,
uniting yarns
& fixing the frays
–fastening flax
–so matter of fact
–it’s how she relaxed
–that Heddy was trained
Heidi, however,
–her housemate—
was not,
in spite of the
silks & fine threads
she bought,
that girl couldn’t purl
the worsted Hed’ wrought
–tried like the dickens
–needles a’clickin’
–her best was slim pickins
–she couldn’t knit squat
sew knot too surprising
that Heidi resented,
the well-woven
yarns that Heddy presented,
and after a while
this envy fermented,
–that Heid’ was no lady
–she simply went crazy
–and plucked Hed’ like daisy
–but suffered a shock.
Since Hedwig
–the hedgehog—
evidenced armor,
despite of the fact
that Hed’ was a charmer,
coat crackled like hackles
toward those who would harm her
–before she was through
–that Heidi would rue
–the ha-ha she brewed
–Hed’ pricked Heidi harder.

Chalk is bored–
unused, ignored,
set aside
& stuffed in
drawers–
reduced to
outlines
sketched
on floor–
erasers
chasing
lead
no more–
the Number 2
now Number 4
a broken tip:
“don’t buy before…”
all precious stubs
just torn
at door
the ballpoint’s
tossed
the point there
~lost~
its clique
not chic
at any cost–
protected pockets
needed
not–
melt to skins
to cover
OPS
since clicker’s
quicker
Bic’s closed
shop…
–papered Windows
selling ads
androids, iPods
and iPads
geared toward
students
one-day grads,
wrapped in reams
love
Mom& Dad,
obsolescent
same as that–
toasted Post-it
writer’s black.
