Selected Poems
Curious Playful
I find myself especially happy today
And I know why
But at the same time I can’t explain it
And I’m curious
So the best things don’t yet
Have a word.
Spark
The spark of a star
Not near and not far
Hurtling toward me
Aiming for me
Tearing apart the silence before it
Yet I adore it
And will store it
Somewhere close
When I’m most
In need of a spark
And the random
I’m known for the random poetry, so let’s hear it
And no matter what - Don’t fear it
Like, like a clown with his little balloons
With, with a cracker a sock and a spoon
You say why do you write such a notion
A concoction of meaningless potion
Or a silky smooth drop of a lotion
That somehow, someway lubricates the gears
Stops the squeaking in my head
So I can sleep
Beat Down Fever
A koala named Marbles alone in the dark
He puts on a mitten and goes to the store
Buys a loaf of bread and gets change for the meter
And then says “Why is everyone looking at me?”
BECAUSE YOU STUPID KOALA
You’re only wearing one mitten.
Dumbass!
