careful with the pillows

flies at the flophouse
let them in
covered in gravy and pie
chopped and laced in rye
before they got panned
over in a minute
flour put out the fire
anise seed stewed
but that was another
hole in the middle
a comical fair
one glued to another
kept watch at bay
one fool at a time
why do we wait
a song on the toe and a hairspring tie?
you're entitled to know
as long as you wait
that cottage grove feels fine
singing beneath the rafters
a job well done
floating toes refining prose
a dress rehearsal
straying bay of steeples
the logorithms bray
reaching kitchen corners
blankets in repose
forgone conclusions
alphabet all night
long for tomorrow
guess for today
but that's not happening
longing for tea
the breeze took over
take out the stew and run
it's always better that way

crafter's mather

sink shaft falters
too late the sinuous creak
above below ladders
boards wear to sneak
sending words to apples
pies to misnomers
beefs to meanders
links pass agressives
overboards to links
sinks in tallow bottoms
snores to fallow pies
in smatters of importance
I sneak impotent lies
dressing mantic altars
fleecing drink my pies
dressing dinner pavement
leak important lies
sins supply-lee showing
matters overflowing
jumpers weeding
purples feeding
flippers flying
get on board
lime train's trying
lesson waterboarding
sink like despot lies
feeding dinner frying
no need to create
some bum relate
lattice work trying
there's none working
open the boards
reverse the mess
teachers crying
school micing
feed the eyes
don't despise
their lying

whose falt is it

shadow blundered coffee
rock on a stick
sugar broiled lye
second night out
temperature nigh high
Seattle prime
these are sensitive times
broiled lobster doing nothing
sits with the fries
wandering corpus christie
where lampshades go and hide
aminals reverses letters
shadows in line only in mind
they're not too quick
the brown fox jumpy
not the type stuff
centers in yoga land
where landmines bloom and fall
where ties quicken their steps
over quick brown leaves and curbside pines
there's far too many words
piebald 
look both ways when behind
such a bother
it's safe sex in a halter
why's it got to be so bad
the cream pudding so dry
i'd ask the falters
but i don't know why
