A dozen mini bombs
Ready to launch
Darkness sets in
Sneak across the lawn
Ready the cannon
Aim and let loose
Eggs splatter on brick
Childhood nukes

I searched everywhere, the desk, junk drawer, cars. Hell, I even checked the fridge and the laundry. It was pointless. My charger cord was gone… 3% battery life…The warning light flashed. Panicking, I tr…

Gone is the flutter
First felt long ago
Traded unawares for
A procedural mutter
Repeating and slow
Graded with measure
The pendulum stutters
Passing what’s known

#sensewrds prompt 195
lilacs erasing abstract

I feel myself fading
Degrading in memory
Thoughts disappear
Into a hegemony
Distraught by my lack
Of perceived individuality
I blend into the mass
Masked with the serenity
Of a scented candle

Precious cans lining
Dusty cellar shelves
Cursive labels whisper
The contents that dwell
Preserved for a time when
moral uncertainty compels
Us to seek out past virtues
We saved for ourselves

Puzzled Cotton Velleity

Questions arose as
the clouds were stolen
From the skies above
No rain has fallen
flies swarm in droves
bloated and swollen
fate has been wove
And we do nothingy

Lay in the clover field
Let the vines grow over
A broken body healed
Weeds sow the closure
Of a mind now congealed
By low light exposure
Poured into its human shield

The philosophical rabble
With their ontological babble
What does it mean to be
Questioning my reality
Then I’ll question yours
Tell me who you are
….
Yeah, that’s what I thought

One step then another
Never gaining distance
Repeating the motions
Notions of omniscience
Remaining in one place
Days go by, time slowed
Retracing my minds steps
To find a yellow brick road

A jump and a jolt
I’m up with a bolt
Sleep interrupted
By a humorous critique
β€œYou don’t even listen to me”
Nonsense mumbled
Frustration and anger
As you try to remember
Questions unanswered
You were still asleep

Crunchy and crisp
Fried deliciousness
Then the bristles
On my tongue and lips
A reminder that this
Pork rind tidbit
Once was and still is
Pig skin, fried crisp

I carved out a part of my psyche, that most susceptible to mental collapse, just to prove that I was sane. She challenged my notions of sanity, poking holes in all my theories, when we found it squirming on the table, a malignant eyesore, and I realized we were both wrong.

We were #spellbound as the new equations proved time wasn’t linear. It wasn’t incorporeal either. It was a textural membrane with valleys and ridges. The next step was to figure out how to peel back the #hours and find whatever lies inside.

That big yellow bird 
That lived on the street
With a friendly voice
And big orange feet
Taught all the kids
Things they might need
How to get along
The letters to read
The imaginary principles 
We thought were concrete
But then we grew up
Saw the world doesn’t meet
The standards we learned
Just an obsession for feet

Norse farmers known
For being so fierce
Piracy and pillaging
Don’t forget the beards
But when I say you’re a
Viking it’s not what you think
Not known for their hygiene
I’m saying you stink

I’m not even a nail biter, just thinking of the people I’ve seen eating them down to the nubs.

Man, I would love to be a snail. Just go where I want when I want, everything I need on my back. Plus the eye stalks!

I have had an epiphany
An idea of sorts
But to communicate
Is of the most import
Unfortunately I suffer
From linguistic impotence
Unable to finish a thought
People loose their patience
At my pauses in speech 
They get frustrated and leave 
Only a select few will
Hear the stories I weave

I was excited to meet the Hulk
In all his glorious green bulk
Waiting in line for hours on end
Ready with my comic books and pen
When he got up to leave the fans
I couldn’t stop thinking of his hands
I followed through the convention center
Behind the door marked β€œDO NOT ENTER”
β€œSTOP” I yelled and did the smash
He turned, I got the green flash
It was then I noticed the urinal stall
For the Hulk, I thought he was small

Another days work complete
I feel it in my hands and feet
Ache ingrained into my flesh
Callouses remaining fresh
Adding another layer to my shell
Protecting me from this hell
Does the snail hurt like this
As he grows does he wince
Or is this a human novelty
That our shells create animosity

Here in small claims court
Waiting at the lawyers table
Hearing the plaintiffs extort
For all that they are able

Spewing incoherent testimony 
Everyone looks so bored
They’d hoped for Judge Judy
To give a high dollar award

Instead it’s an old white dude
Slumped down in his robes
Underneath is just a birthday suit
Kept awake by his ass being cold

Not like anyone would criticize 
The judge up on the bench
The gavel did not legitimize 
How much he had to clench

Great origin for the nine lives myth. Also, I can picture a haunted cat being the origin of dust storms. Mine loves nothing more than to roll in the dirt and dry grass and deposit it all over my house.
