“Tiger lily”

Tiger lily

No, Mr. Baker,

it is not an

invasion.

It’s a Tiger lily.

The invasion comes

a few days

later

with beer and

outdoor cooking.

That’s when

the aliens

—grill your meat

—light your fireworks

—conflagrate and celebrate

your auto-da-fe future.

“The Tong Dynasty”

The Tong Dynasty

King Kong and Godzilla met in a kitchen. /

King Kong heard Godzilla wailin’ and bitchin’. /

“My toast! My toast! I can’t get it out. /

“My toast! My toast! It’s stuck in that snout. /

Every time I reach in sparks fly out. /

Angry it is!” He stomped round about. /

King Kong reached forth with bamboo tongs. /

They grabbed that toast like a pair of thongs. /

Godzilla thanked Kong and went on his way. /

Thus, civilization was saved that day.

“Capture”

Capture

Summer evening sky.

Clouds build their wayward castles,

capture star-ward dreams.

“Precarious ride”

Precarious ride

Pallet-able or /

portable. Buss a bump and /

come undone-able.

“Tall tale”

Tall tale

The gravedigger says, /

As his needling wife’s unearthed, /

“It’s all a big yarn.”

“Hightailing”

I don’t know who is showing the most hip, but I can guess who is being the most cheeky in this photo.

Is this a drunken, African version of the Running of the Bulls? The Hightailing Away from the Hippopotamus? Or would that be Hippopotami?

Oh my

the hippopotami

have come to try

and drive me away.

I undressed

to my birthday best

to take my rest

on a hot day.

I did not know

it was no place to go

that I could not show

my full display.

I have caused unrest

put nature to the test

because I undressed

and tried to stay.

One big old brute

did not like my birthday suit

so I gave him the salute

and he huffed my way.

With no pants

I had little chance

to make a stance

or have my say.

I now must leave

but please don’t grieve

and don’t yet believe

I am human filet.

“Demon”

Demon

Demon at my feet /

Rests in peanut butter /

Anticipation.
