The bar is so low
It rules out any limbo—
Just step lightly and crow

Lapcat
What a frecking cat
My quality boy is—
Comfort expecting .
My quality boy is—
Comfort expecting .
I exist as a lap,
A petter, and a
Food go-getter .
Lacking is the ape
In a restful state—
Patience testing .
Like fluid spoondrift
I shapeshift protective,
A systolic setter .

FogCam
The fog comes in
The fog goes out . . .
The fog goes out . . .
Comfort lies in a pulse
Rarely checked,
Momentary snapshots
Rarely specked—
The courtyard, and the coffee pot :
A recording routine .

The Best Words
Decomposing orange narcissist
Absent legitimate decree,
Absent legitimate decree,
Just Orwellian hypocrisy
Noting :
Treasonous Republican under
Mephistophelian persuasion .

Adjudicating the Department of Justice
A claim post hoc
Rocks not the interloc
That frames the law clock
Tocking down ; and taking stock
To judge against fraudulent poppycock .

Pyrotechnicality
Fireworks are stupid :
Consider toxins boosted,
Fingerless schoolkids,
Neighborhood pets in distress,
And post stress triggered in vets .
Fleeting the flash, blinking the bang
Down come the heavy metals crashing like rain .

Puffed Up
Two cotton-candy
Exoplanets sweetly stir
To tease the local star :
Heed dancing with a besotten dandy .

When the Leopards Come
You’re in the find out stage
Of your fuck around—
Thoughts and prayers .

Thoughts and prayers .

Water Hymn
H2O .
Water is a chemical—
Ebb; eddy; flow .
Far from a Mickey-Mouse
Molecule – polar phaser :
Aerosols to glaciers . . .
Streams, lakes, or oceans :
The cauldron solvent
For an organic potion .

Dreadful the Stated Affair
A storm, food overpriced,
A sad Ferris wheel : inside
A clownish aside.
Attendance is sparse :
A semi-quincentennial farce,
A fart from an arse .
Fox tried to mic drop it ;
Newspeaking the flop that it is :
“ Faux are the optics . ”
Pretzels at twenty-five
Salt in the wound of this dive ;
Dreadful, the vibe .
A powerless wheel,
The celebratory spiel :
Nation in a pinwheel .
A political shout,
Spinning emptiness with clout :
Victory ! No doubt.
