Drunkfish

The roof drank sideways
Before laughing in prime
Dressing in codfish
Lifting their floor driven eyes
Capturing bolts to nail removers
In a sank sideways snore
Water waffling wiffle waff
Washing codfish from its suit
Laughably liftably bolting its primes
Noom nafting niftally
Watching noom naftals nift their naft
Normally nameled niflemen niffted their knees
For a contrite reunion
Nafted before the nibbles were removed
Waffling nib nab before each nobbish numb
Ribbling each sleeve niffernaff
Gom as gum removal
Slipslaff in niffnaff
Tang taffled driven eyes
Blifted before bleating blivels
Blanked blyordally sideways
Drink dranking drufting drunk
Kiff caffing codfish in a kigger
Blink blanking blogger blunk
Drift draft as dribble
Drivle
Drunkfish

Only normal

Disconsulate waiting and weeding in bed
The octopus rolled and threw up his head
The clownfish laughed to raise octopus ire
The octopus tenticled clownfish in fire.

The clownfish just laughed it was finally warm
Breathing in fire and naming it norm
The normans were miffed justifiable grieved
And threw up an apple by gripping a sleeve.

In jesting ingestible sleeving awake
The apple threw up by insleeving a cake
The cake sleeving octopus clowned by a head
Already confetti or so it had said.

Confetti retenticled clownfish a clone
Waiting and weeding in octopus bone
Twas only normal in octopus wake
Sieving receiving no normal can take.

Songs of the long green shadows

The subterranean barks bent the moonshine in two
Just to find the subtracter got cold feet
And addition had the moon splayed
Spanning the Pacific
Two nights over the Amorites and Hittites
Spelling the roosters to rafters
Among the spillgrass roots and their onionskin bottoms
Long morose to moonrope molecules
Splitting sunlit moonshine
Spilling while the dogfish explained marshmallows
And trilobites left without explanation
The dogfish roared in the catfish wake
Exploring corridors for cogfish wine
And the whimsy bent shadow shrank ghettoes
Leading to train drivin snores
In the bottom of night
As stars began to stitch
Songs of long green shadows
And togs began to spin
Clogging doors of moonshores
Sinking sand sifting songs
Trilobites left no explanation
Just out the door ingrained
Sifting songs of the long green shadows
The rest of us left behind.

Down by the watering hole

Back in the land where the tadpoles lie flat
I threw off my shoe when I shouldered my back
My back threw my shoes and then wandered away
My laces flew off to turn back at the quay
Got tangled in zippers and hopped up on wine
The laces strung out and reverted to pine
Turned into a raft as they watered the Styx
And pining the currents in splintered toothpicks
They toothpicked together in a tiny raft
A deer mouse a monkey though that may seem daft
When dashed through the rapids picked up by a deer
You may think I'm lying not being sincere
The deer and the monkey had a tug of war
Devouring toothpicks to settle the score
And spat up the toothpicks they monkeyed away
And watered the story to this very day.

Starkling

Darkling rise the sun
Inkling rise the moon
Sunset stars
Dark blue skies the night
Water apron cries
Shadows sharken
Fireflies the deep
Lights bright out.

Plot six nine five

club sticks of pride
memory homicide
drifting candlesticks
brisk as steeples chase
homeward candles night
shaking sticks as cried
alder benign
bumbling means of crime
fired as two chipped bowls
littered as five fox
dressings tempered piers
feckled each plea
washing each crime
overflow rich
casket each walk
as candles blow
twice herding pride
sent sampling darkness
darning each light
stitching each stich
blinding each blind
mooning each light
inch by colored inch
wide as each line
blind as each fly
washing each breakfast crime
starching each way
bright as quay wrath
nearing each stitch
gone as gone
caught as catch
wandering breeze
each catcher rise
size becoming
six eight center
breeze throw
trees slide
jungle free
seismic wake
before each after
six each nine
no time
add a terse
tenser fine
no cribbage stop
hide crabwise
all on board
side sword
homicide cried
plot six nine five
colored and died.

Chevro Honda lent.
