sip the gold nectar
yes sit at the pub and sip
watch the drunk floozies

order the hot wings
dip them and the celery
in blue cheese dressing

play the jukebox some
enough to make your music
-al prowess felt well

like Bloke, I will not
vote this year either. I will
go to pub instead.

(In a dorm room):

Can't write a haiku
This rap music distracts me
Wait, I wrote one, yay!

Roommate's a bum, dude
Exploded Dr. Pepper
Didn't clean that crap

Epitaph so soon?
I don't think so -- not just yet;
We shall persevere.

TubeNet once was fun
Not so much any longer
Too much like Facebook

Childishness rules now
Good info lost to the noise
Think I'll lurk for now

I wrote this one over the weekend while I was harvesting cherries from my backyard trees:

Fat robins live here
feasting on my cherry trees.
Cucumbers grow still.

Not having to rhyme

one good point of snow

How do I play the tuba?
Fingers, buzzing, air.

There's a short period of time when (except for our ridiculous hipster hairstyles, eyewear, and clothes) we look a bit less that way.

This is c. 38 years ago.

Ravages of time, indeed (39 years ago for me).
