Once upon a midnight, dearie,
Couldnt sleep tho I was weary.
When some fool knocked on my door:
From the local hardware store.
Eagerly I sought to borrow;
From my neighbor (to our sorrow);
His new pipe wrench yesterday.
Which he expected back today.
But that pipe continued leaking;
So today I planned on tweeking;
On that joint a little more;
Knock Knock, again at my front door.
Said the salesman: I am here;
With a brand new pipe wrench dear;
To replace the one you lack.
Quote your neighbor: Give mine back!!
Should by chance you be awakened;
By a salesman, dont be taken;
Never open your front door;
Hell give up in due time for sure.
So I kept the neighbors wrench;
Thats it sitting on the bench;
I sent the salesman back nextdoor;
Cause Ill return it
Nevermore.

I smiled the whole way through.
The Raven lives again!
You bestow classy humor. |

in utter failures
the storied events
that never reflected
any individuals
life story
this rebellion
a rebellion
that was all
by itself more than
true like something
true one could
write about and share
they would read
it if they knew
how to,
see irony
played back
again straight
foward
kids first heard
about the pit
and the pendulim
any physics behind
the torture devised
what life was like
along with what
it was not about
any physics
I cannot
prey
said the Raven
it must mean
over a quaint and curious
volume of forgotten love
when everything is
closed off
from where, and from
who
allegory
one could prance and back and forth
from wherever they
sit,
late at night all
alone
you want to feel
love, hold love
just one, just one
once
the sun also rises
past an awkward
moon
you never hear
them talk
but oh, those
birds that can fly are out
there in the night
walking on the
rooftops
I watch birds
last thursday
on my way to
work a duck
came out of nowhere
and sat in front of
my car on the roadway
towards work
telling me why
what for
go someplace
else
why not
Peace!
