RSBD

Red rolls radiant
Strings sting sadly
Burning blocks of blue
Dull dead dangers
'Round the rocky road
Steel sounds sandy
Bubbles break buildings
Dead ducks dangle

ghosts and ghouls

I've opened up a door
a window
just for fun
to let in ghosts
and ghouls
yeah! you better run

The Monday Poet

“Estos poemas son simples frases de estados de amor escritos en pocos días hace ya algún tiempo. No es, pues, tan pequeño volumen obra literaria, ni lo pretende. Apenas si se atreve a ser una de las tantas lágrimas caídas de los ojos humanos”.

Cuadrados y ángulos

Casas enfiladas, casas enfiladas,
casas enfiladas.
Cuadrados, cuadrados, cuadrados.
Casas enfiladas.
Las gentes ya tienen el alma cuadrada,
ideas en fila
y ángulo en la espalda.
Yo misma he vertido ayer una lágrima,
Dios mío, cuadrada

-Alfonsina Storni

A term for longing

It's funny how life changes.
Years ago, a little girl always clad in pink,
would shut her eyes tightly and wish
to open them in a distant place.

Tonight she closes her eyes and wishes to be there again,
where her door is on the other side, and she is just a few steps away.

A constant desire,
an eternal longing,
for something that's never there.

Yeehaw!!

Little Ol'
Jimmy Kane
they say 'round
went insane
Little Ol'
Gordon Ace
they tell 'round
blew off his face

Big Ol'
Billy Kane
that'd be the daddy
of Jimmy Kane
Got Big Ol'
Sheriff Blaze
to go a'huntin'
Gordon Ace

Big Ol'
Sheriff Blaze
Turned on
his Chevrolet
to go a'huntin'
Gordon Ace

They both fell
into the fields
The ones next to
Betty Feel's
They got to fighting
boy they did
'til Gordon Ace
got to bleed
Then Sheriff blaze
took him in
And up in county
Gordon is
Right next to
the loony bin
where you can find
Little Ol'
Jimmy Kane
That'd be the son
of Billy Kane
YEEEHAW!
