Why Did I Do You Like That?

My life in BOLD face

about face

in disgrace.

Weak willed and

succumbed to

a stiletto wind.

Every heel sometimes

breaks off ingrate.

No initial pain

of a sliver slice

and blood hesitates

to flow.

Before I know it

a valentine trail

drips leaving evidence

to find my way home.

Platelet  crumbs of your heart.

Trolling under the Fridge

I moved the fridge out.

It’s been a couple of months.

Dust bunnies, like fog

blanket the odd lots.





Cat toys,

Milk jug rings,

Number 2 pencils,

Hairy dog kibbles,

Dead bodies (army men),

Magnets huddled together,

Cap’n crunch berries,

Matchbox cars,

Legos,

Cheezits,

Pretzels,

Ornaments,

Cookie sheet?,

AND tile flooring!


This poem was a facebook inquiry yesterday...the answers to what one would find under the fridge are included above.  Except those who only go under there when they buy a new refrigerator or wonder why anyone would clean under there.  I am sure there are many other things you might have found under there...Well, sweep them into the comment section below.
Happy Friday everyone!

Schwarmerei

a hand out to

dance hip-hop

in a German pub

with old men at their

stations leaning

into a very dark beer

and smoke started

its movement  with ours

I flipped a guy’s hat off

while bumping my

frualine into a chair

we flipped the air

and all the old men

did was stare

This week on my word of the day e-mails was German words ...here's another.

Stop by Mr. Knowitalls blog and try a 55. 

Grace in the Fireplace

out of power

out of type

so many blogs

so much hype

the fire in its place

lays words of grace

no hum

no ho

take in

the glow

the fire in its place

lays words of grace

thoughts like smoke

up they flue

nothing else

to do

warm fire in its place

such grace

Have Fun

Don't eat the yellow snow.
Old Yeller's gotta go.

Don't lick the flag ple.
What a double dog dare role.

Skate away from thin ice.
The pond is not so nice.

Please don't sauser down the hill.
That grove of trees will be no thrill.

Now go outside and play.
"Have fun" I always say.
