Cat dance
Cats in the front yard: /
one leads with a left jab. /
The other rope-a-dopes.

“Happy Eve”
Happy Eve
Happy Triskaidekaphobia Eve
To all who practice and believe.
Beware now that sidewalk crack
For you may break your mother’s back.
You’ve probably already broken her heart,
With your non replies or answers smart.
So she has now visited upon you
This Friday day over which to stew.
The Ides of March did Caesar in,
His conspirators waited until the middle to begin.
But this Friday and this thirteen
Stabs without antagonist seen.
There is always one and up to three
To torment you, to not let you be.
So, gird your loins and be on your guard,
Lest you be hoisted by your own petard.

Monday morning writing joke: “Strut Your Stuff”
There once was a young writer in France,
Who for the New Year wanted to dance.
To get out of his rut,
Outside he did strut,
But forgot he was wearing no pants.

Dear 2023
Dear 2023,
What type of year will you be?
Wild and free
Or consternating me?
O’ 2023,
Could I have a word?
Is it absurd
For me not to have heard
What type of year you will be?
I don’t want to own you.
Not even bone you
But if I phone you,
Would you be the right date for me?

Christmas tome in the city.
What tome is Santa bringing you?
“Hello”
Hello, Customer Service
“Customer Service.”
“I need to return a savior.”
“Store credit or cash?”

“O’ (un)holy Krampus Night”
O’ (un)holy Krampus Night.
There is a being named Krampus
Who this night comes for some of us.
Some of us will go
To where, we don’t know
But that will leave more gifts for the rest of us.

“Good eats”
Good eats
I’m nuts about here. /
Sunflower seeds are healthy, /
Help me scatter birds.
