Ahh, such a sweet sight.

What's that?

That special grace of knowing...

Screee-la-ha-ha!

(rock)
Splat!!

...that comes before a fall.

Budding Partnership

Sometimes I'm so happy and so scared at the same time

that I just want to scream for someone

to come help me untie my shoes

just so I don't have to

deal with the knots.

I've always been good with unravelling all kinds of nots.

One sorry sap strutting by

a few loose screws.

Soon they'll all be lubricating

the bobble head blues.

Wisdom Attack

Whoa! Where'd you come from!?

Get out'a my face!

... 

Hey, wait! Come back!!

...

(...oh, sh*t!)

Hope Detector

Hmmm. I think I sense some common ground.

I am NOT defensive!

Desperados

Do ya think maybe...

Shhh!

...if we tries the backside vista...

Shhhhh!

...by crawling underneath the top to the end point

and dropping down to the second tier...

Hey! Quiet! I'm doin' some hard listenin' here!

I'm right on top of a great game plan!

You just be quiet so's I can hear it!

...and then we ask real politely...

SHHHH!

...or maybe yell real loud...

QUIET!!

...do you think that maybe then

we might get heard?

SHHHHHHHH!

A Successful Man

Here I am,

ladder climber,

tunnel maker,

ball player,

wave rider.

I'm on top of the world!

The New West Bucking Bronco Bananza

This here cowhand izz taming the waves

with the wild thunderin' of clouds tumbling overhead.

. . .

Heeeyaaaaahhh!

Wide-eyed Wayne, the newbie New Ager, gets a leg up

as he wobbles in woo-woo wonderment

out in the wild, wild west.

A Natural Contender Heads for the Hot Tub

Whooo hoo!

There's nothin' like a downhill trip-zip

on a rocky road bruise-cruise

to land me in some refreshin' hot water!

ooooooo!

 I luvs being shifty!

Hop Scotch Experts

Three opinionated sisters arguing theories

for landing on the energy sapping square 9

and the soberingly tricky turnaround 10.

An Athletic Trip

I'm down,

I'm out,

and I'm seeing stars!

Sayyyyy....

Isn't that Orion,

home plate for new heroes being born?

Two blind men fighting over a little change.

Friendship

I think between the two of us

we have the world in perspective.

The Builder

Foom, foom, foom,
So full of muscle aching gloom.
And yet this pounding tempo in my heart
writes the notes and sings the songs
that quicken to warmth
a cold, foggy, looming horizon.

The Artist

Shall I paint the ponderously powerful, deep blue sea?

Or that pert and portly pig, tickled a blushing pink?

That's Brain-Bot.
He's taking over my homework chores.

Cool!

A thoughtful man in his stride

returns to find a forgotten memory.

Coupling Campfire Talk

Shaboomah!

Sha-crackle-shaboomah!

Ya! Ya! Ya!

Beamer Boy Before He Bought His Toy

Zip!

Zoop!

Zitso-swoop!

A Believable History

Oh nooooooo!

Oh yeaaaaaaaaaaah!

Two twisting the inevitable truth

into a believable history.

One, the writer.

Two, the reader.

Both, the breeder.

I think I'm just getting older

Each time I act a bit bolder,

Climbing this ladder so high,

Bagging a dream from the sky.

The Flying Nun

Trish, a practical woman

and a true believer,

had a brilliant flight plan

involving airports

lighting landing fields

with enchanting visions.

Techie tinker Henry O. dawdled along in a happy little universe

conversing with gadgets and Gidgets from reconstituted widgets.

Broken heart,

Oh thou art,

Oh thou art.

All I want to know, God, is where did I leave my keys!?!

Joop, an insular sort, found it to be true

(the moral note his evil twin had hung

outside his doorstep two days earlier):

There's plenty of room

around doom and gloom.

Joop, his atomized soul now fully mushroomed,

was finding his personal space

enlarging in exponential proportions,

the density of air around his head

feeling almost too thick

to breath in as it echoed with

such dark emptiness.

K.P. Reemo,

a black hole enthusiast,

confronted the odds of world destruction

occurring on his 38th birthday seeing as how

his father had been swallowed by a sink hole at age 25

and his mother had continued darning Dad's socks for 13 more years

before she lost the tip of her needle finger in a carrot cutting accident

and ran off with the acupuncturist who rewound her life to full chi 

(both unfortunately forgetting that she was still on K.P. duty).
